The BCSC-1 locus at chromosome 11q23-q24 is a candidate tumor suppressor gene.
Frequent allelic loss at human chromosome 11q23-q24 occurs in a wide variety of cancers, suggesting that this region may harbor a tumor suppressor gene. By constructing a physical map of the LOH11CR2 minimal region of loss on 11q23-q24 associated with lung and breast carcinomas, we were able to clone a hereditary translocation, t(11;12)(q23;q24), in a patient with early-onset breast cancer and ...
متن کاملA candidate tumor suppressor gene, H37, from the human lung cancer tumor suppressor locus 3p21.3.
Frequent allelic loss and homozygous deletions within chromosome 3p in human lung cancers have suggested that the 3p21.3 (370-kb) region contains a critical tumor suppressor gene(s) (TSG). With the exact identity/characteristics of such a gene(s) still unconfirmed, a lack of inactivating structural mutations in the expressed genes contained within this region may indicate that the 3p TSG(s) do ...
متن کاملThe ETS transcription factor MEF is a candidate tumor suppressor gene on the X chromosome.
Although X chromosome transfer experiments indicated that tumor suppressor genes are present on the X chromosome, they have not been previously identified. In this report, we show that the ETS transcription factor MEF (ELF4), which is located on chromosome Xq26.1, possesses tumor suppressive capability. MEF expression was up-regulated by 5-azacytidine in some cancer cell lines. MEF overexpressi...

متن کاملThe FOXP1 winged helix transcription factor is a novel candidate tumor suppressor gene on chromosome 3p.
The JC12 monoclonal antibody recognizes a previously unknown nuclear protein that showed a restricted distribution in normal tonsil and was also overexpressed in a subset of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. Using this reagent, we expression cloned cDNAs encoding its antigenic target and identified this protein as a novel putative transcription factor, FOXP1. The FOXP1 protein sequence contains p...
