Molecular characterization of a common fragile site ( <i>FRA7H</i> ) on human chromosome 7 by the cloning of a simian virus 40 integration site
7 Jul 1998
Abstract excerpt
Common fragile sites are chromosomal loci prone to breakage and rearrangement, hypothesized to provide targets for foreign DNA integration. We cloned a simian virus 40 integration site and showed by fluorescent in situ hybridization analysis that the integration event had occurred within a common aphidicolin-induced fragile site on human chromosome 7, FRA7H. A region of 161 kb spanning FRA7H was defined and...
