Abstract
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at loci from the long arm of chromosome 7 was shown to occur in breast carcinomas. However, the frequency with which this alteration is observed varies from 0 to 40%. We report LOH at three microsatellite markers located at 7q3 in 16 of 66 (24%) breas t tumor samples.
