A novel region of amplification in breast tumors was recently identified on chromosome
17q23. Extensive mapping of the amplicon by Southern blotting and fluorescence in situ …

This study presents the annotated genomic sequence and exon–intron organization of the
human and mouse epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) genes located on chromosomes …

Chironomids (Diptera) typically comprise the most abundant group of macroinvertebrates
collected in water quality surveys. Species in the genus Cricotopus display a wide range of …

The chromosome 17q23 region is frequently amplified in breast tumors. Gain of the region is
present in 50% of BRCA1-associated breast tumors and 87% of BRCA2-associated breast …

Amplification of the 17q23 region occurs frequently in breast tumors. To characterize the
structure of 17q23 amplicons and to identify oncogene targets associated with this alteration, we …

Endolithic fungi bore through the extracellular calcium carbonate skeleton of reef-building
scleractinian corals, both healthy and dead, and effect net erosion of coral reefs. Potential …

Cryptic male mate choice occurs when males differentially allocate resources to females
during or after copulation. When male resources are limited, males may benefit by strategically …

Epidemiological studies have suggested that the breast cancer susceptibility genes, BRCA1
and BRCA2,may be involved in the development of prostate cancer. Several studies have …

Breast cancer risk is greatly increased in women who carry mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2
genes. Because breast cancer initiation is different between BRCA1/2 mutation carriers …

Terminal ends of vertebrate chromosomes are protected by tandem repeats of the sequence
(TTAGGG). First thought to be vertebrate specific, (TTAGGG) n has recently been identified …
