Abstract

Abstract This review examines the effect that a small chromosome deletion affecting a specific DNA sequence may have in producing a state of ‘hemizygosity’ for a gene or genes, and so triggering malignancy of the cells concerned. The association between such deletions and a variety of cancers will be considered and the implications for clinical practice will be outlined.
