SKY = spectral karyotyping; FISH = fluorescence in situ hybridization; LR = locus rearranged; LD = locus deleted.

*

Chromosome rearrangements were detected by SKY analysis of at least 6 metaphase cells per tumor. Aberrations listed were present in at least 5 of the 6 metaphases. Aberrations involving chromosomes 12, 14, and 15 are shown in bold.

The number of partial and whole chromosome gains or losses identified by SKY and FISH.

The results of FISH analysis with bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones to mouse IgH and TcrCα/Vδ loci. As described in the text, all tumors exhibited rearrangement within the Tcr locus on both alleles of chromosome 14 and deletion of the IgH locus on the translocated allele of chromosome 12.

F1-153

T: translocation. The chromosome donating the centromere is listed first.

F1-155

Dp: duplication of a chromosome segment.

F1-154

Is: insertion. The inserted segment is listed first.

#Del: interstitial deletion of a chromosome segment.

F1-160

Dic: a dicentric chromosome.

F1-164

Rb: Robertsonian translocation.

F1-161

Ace: acentric fragment of a chromosome.
