A Mammary-Specific, Long-range Deletion on Mouse Chromosome 11 Accelerates Brca1-Associated Mammary Tumorigenesis

We engineered a mammary-specific knockout model for Brca1 deficiency that also lacks the majority of one chromosome 11 to determine whether tumor susceptibility loci reside on this chromosome that cooperate with the loss of Brca1 during mammary cancer formation. Brca1-deficient females that are hap...
