In order to demonstrate and define possible tumor suppressor gene loci on chromosome 11 associated with NPC, we used 7 STR to test for LOH on 25 NPC samples. LOH was detected in 46 per cent of cases. Most LOH loci were clustered on the long arm. Further study demonstrated 22 per cent and 45.5 per cent of cases with LOH on 11q13 and 11q23 respectively.

D012091 Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid Sequences of DNA or RNA that occur in multiple copies. There are several types: INTERSPERSED REPETITIVE SEQUENCES are copies of transposable elements (DNA TRANSPOSABLE ELEMENTS or RETROELEMENTS) dispersed throughout the genome. TERMINAL REPEAT SEQUENCES flank both ends of another sequence, for example, the long terminal repeats (LTRs) on RETROVIRUSES. Variations may be direct repeats, those occurring in the same direction, or inverted repeats, those opposite to each other in direction. TANDEM REPEAT SEQUENCES are copies which lie adjacent to each other, direct or inverted (INVERTED REPEAT SEQUENCES).
