The detection of loss of heterozygosity, indicative of the presence of a tumor suppressor gene, has been reported to occur frequently on chromosome 22q in human ovarian cancer. In this study, 110 sporadic ovarian tumors were analyzed using 8 polymorphic loci to define a minimum region of loss. Fifty-eight (53%) tumors showed loss of heterozygosity, and of these 6 exhibited partial loss, enablin...
