## Communicated by Haig H. Kazazian One of the main features of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is benign neurofibromas, 10-20% of which become transformed into malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs). The molecular basis of NF1 tumorigenesis is, however, still unclear. Ninety-one tumors

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), an autosomal dominantly-inherited disorder, is mainly characterized by the occurrence of multiple dermal neurofibromas and is caused by mutations in the NF1 gene, a tumor suppressor gene. The variable expressivity of the disease and the lack of a genotype/phenotype co
