“…To confirm significant cryptic genomic aberrations, DNA samples from two BAC clones, RP11-1107G21 ( NF1 gene at 17q11.2, chr17:26,415,260-26,627,398, sequence designation per NCBI36/hg18 assembly of the UCSC Human Genome browser http://genome.ucsc.edu/ and RP11-55J8 ( RHOT1 gene at 17q11.2, chr17:27,462,203-27,654,151), were purchased from Roswell Park Cancer Institute (Buffalo, NY). The labeling of BAC DNA with fluorescent nucleotides by nick translation, the hybridization and the image analysis were performed as previously described [4,16]. …”
