Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in males in the United States, yet the etiology of this disease is still poorly understood. In previous work from our laboratory, one or more deleted regions were found in prostate tumors distal to the breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA1) on chromosome 17. This suggested that genes at 17q21 may play a pivotal role in prostate cancer progression,...
Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), we have identified seven NF1-related loci, two separate loci on chromosome 2, at bands 2q21 and 2q33-q34, and one locus each on five other chromosomes at bands 14q11.2, 15q11.2, 18p11.2, 21q11.2-q21, and 22q11.2. Application of PCR using NF1 primer pairs and genomic DNA from somatic cell hybrids confirmed the above loci, identified additional loci on...
A human delayed rectifier K + channel gene has been localized to the long arm of human chromosome 20q13.2 by fluorescence in situ hybridization of genomic P1 clones from this locus. A polymorphic (GA) microsatellite repeat was identified in one of the P1 clones. The new SSR marker (D20S436) was genotyped in four CEPH pedigrees. Two-point linkage analysis indicated linkage of this marker to...
