[Differential expression of HSU17714 gene in colorectal cancer and normal colonic mucosa].
HSU17714 is a new gene discovered by subtractive hybridization. Its cDNA is 2,932 bp long and the gene is located at human chromosome 22 as defined by fluorescence in- situ hybridization combined fluorescence R-banding technique. Northern blot and RNA dot blot analyses showed that the expression level of HSU17714 gene was significantly lower in 15 cases of colorectal cancer than that in adjacent normal colonic mucosa. The defective expression of HSU17714 in colorectal cancer suggests that it is a new candidate tumor suppressor gene.
