Loss of heterozygosity in a gene coding for a thyroid hormone receptor in lung cancers

Abstract: SummaryThe ERBAB gene codes for a DNA-binding thyroid hormone receptor (THR) and maps to chromosome 3p21-p25, overlapping a 3p deletion characterizing small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). A DNA clone detecting an RFLP at the ERBADi locus has been used to probe a large number of lung tumors. Virtually all SCLC had lost heterozygosity, showing that the 3p deletion in SCLC includes this gene. A substantial but smaller proportion of non-small-cell carcinomas had lost heterozygosity at ERBAB. Among all non-smallcell t… Show more
