AIMS: Chromosomal gains and losses were surveyed by comparative genomic hybridisation
(CGH) in a series of colorectal adenomas and carcinomas, in search of high risk genomic …

Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) is a recently identified enzyme involved in
mitochondrial beta-oxidation, harboring long-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase, long-chain 3 …

CD97 is a monomeric glycoprotein of 75 to 85 kDa that is induced rapidly on the surface of
most leukocytes upon activation. We herein report the isolation of a cDNA encoding human …

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) involves fetal overgrowth and predisposition to a
wide variety of embryonal tumors of childhood. We have previously found that BWS is …

SCP2 is a meiosis-specific component of the axial elements of synaptonemal complexes,
and was originally identified in the rat. The cDNA encoding SCP2 of the rat (rnSCP2) has …

We report on a girl with a partial duplication of the proximal part of the long arm of
chromosome 10, confirmed by chromosome painting. The phenotypic findings are compared …

Classical cytogenetics has a low resolving power and allows analysis of dividing cells only.
In fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), a DNA fragment is stained with a fluorescent …

This paper highlights two improvements of the on-line centromeric index (CI) analysis for the
detection of chromosome abnormalities. On-line CI versus DNA content analysis of an EBV …
