SRD (CHD5) Deletion Probe LPS010 - Detail

The 1p36 region is frequently deleted in a broad range of human cancers1. The Chromodomain Helicase DNA binding domain 5 (CHD5) gene acts as a tumour suppressor at 1p36 and is frequently deleted in human gliomas2, leukaemia/lymphoma3 and neuroblastoma4. Deletion of the short arm of chromosome 1 is one of the most characteristic genetic changes in neuroblastomas, a tumour of the sympathetic nervous system. This is the most common childhood extracranial solid tumour accounting for around 8%-10% of childhood cancers and 15% of childhood cancer deaths5. The CHD5 gene has been characterised as the lead tumour suppressor candidate from the 1p36 SRD (smallest region of consistent deletion) region in neuroblastoma6.
