The investigation of a novel BRCA2-associated gene, EMSY, on chromosome 11Q13 in breast and ovarian cancer
EMSY is a novel gene encoding a protein that binds to the tumor suppressor BRCA2. EMSY maps to 11q13, a region commonly amplified in breast cancer, and is located 6 Mb telomeric to CCND1. However, the role of EMSY amplification in breast and ovarian cancer is largely unknown. Here we present evid...
