Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based nucleotide sequence analysis was performed in 12 cases of Ewing sarcoma on the cDNA and/or genomic DNA breakpoint regions of a t(11;22)(q24;q12), which joins the EWS gene located on chromosome 22 with the FLI1 gene located on chromosome 11, in order to understan

β¦ Synopsis
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using chromosome-specific plasmid libraries and chromosome region-specific DNA markers allowed the characterization of a t( 1022; I I ) (p I I .2;q I2;q24) in a Ewing's sarcoma (ES). This study illustrates the usefulness of molecular cytogenetic analysis of ES, especially for determining the localization of the translocated I I q24-25 segment in complex or variant translocations. Genes Chrorn Cancer 4: 188-I 9 I ( / 992).

Malignant rhabdoid tumors are rare and aggressive neoplasms of childhood, occurring in the kidney or in various extrarenal locations. Most cytogenetic studies of these tumors have shown the frequent involvement of chromosome 22, including translocations and/or deletions, with a critical region for a
## Abstract We describe the characterization of the genomic DNA breakpoints of two multiple myeloma (MM) patients with t(11;14). __IGH__ translocation events are present in many MM tumors, and it is proposed that they occur early in the pathogenesis, based on the assumption that the translocations
The disease ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a multifaceted disorder in which patients have an increased chance of developing a T-cell leukaemia, often with abnormalities of chromosome 14, but sometimes with rare translocations, like t(X; 14)(q28;q I I). We describe the cloning of the breakpoint of on
