A novel homozygous deletion at chromosomal band 6q27 in an ovarian cancer cell line delineates the position of a putative tumor suppressor gene.

Abstract:

:Chromosomal band 6q27 is believed to contain a tumor suppressor gene important in the development of several cancer types, including ovarian cancer. However, repeated efforts to identify a tumor suppressor gene in this region have been unsuccessful. Because homozygous deletions have been useful in the positional cloning of a number of tumor suppressor genes, we initiated a systematic search for such deletions in ovarian cancer cell lines using 6q microsatellite markers. One of the cell lines, OV167, was found to contain an 80 kb homozygous deletion encompassing marker D6S193 at 6q27 but excluding nearby marker D6S297. No known genes were present in the deleted region. Because the homozygous deletion might affect the expression of nearby genes, we analyzed the expression of the two closest known genes flanking the deletion, RNASE6PL and RSK-3. The expression of these genes were unaffected by the homozygous deletion, suggesting that the functional target of the deletion is located between these two genes. A search of the region against expressed sequence tag (EST) databases revealed that it contained four sets of expressed sequences. The first expressed sequences were derived from a LINE repetitive element and were considered unlikely to represent a tumor suppressor gene. The other expressed sequence tags identified did not show homology to known genes and are currently being investigated. This data may significantly reduce the magnitude of the search for the 6q tumor suppressor gene as it suggests a small area as a prime target for investigation.
