## Mutations at the ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) locus on chromosome band 11q22 cause a distinctive autosomal recessive syndrome in homozygotes and predispose heterozygotes to cancer, ischemic heart disease, and early mortality. PCR amplification from genomic DNA and automated sequencing of the enti

Cowden disease (CD) is a rare, autosomal dominant inherited cancer syndrome characterized by multiple benign and malignant lesions in a wide spectrum of tissues. While individuals with CD have an increased risk of breast and thyroid neoplasms, the primary features of CD are hamartomas. The gene for
The long arm of chromosome 9 is thought to contain one or more putative tumor suppressor genes that are mutated in squamous cell carcinomas. This region shows frequent loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in carcinomas arising in several developmentally related tissues, including the esophagus, head and nec
The hRAD54 gene is related to a family of genes involved in DNA recombination and repair and encodes a protein with DNA helicase activity. hRAD54 has been mapped to 1p32, a region frequently involved in deletions in a variety of tumor types, including atypical and anaplastic meningiomas. To determin
