Fig. 2. BAC-based CGH array in Cancer Genomics MCG Cancer Array-800 profile from an esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cellline, KYSE410. Clones are ordered from chromosome 1 to 22 and within each chromosome on the basis of the UCSC mapping position (http://genome.ucsc.edu/, version December 2000). Thresholds for copy number gain and loss are shown at log2ratio of 0.2 and -0.2, respectively. Copy number amplification is detected on three BACs on 17q11.2, in which one BAC (RP11-62N23) harbors ERBB2. A homozygous deletion of the 9p21 region is also seen in this case. In the right panel, FISH reveals ERBB2 amplification on two markers chromosomes as HSRs (arrows). Red signals are detected as control at 17911.2 by BAC (RP11-229K15). |
