Detailed characterization of the amplified 7p11.2 chromosomal segments (n = 10, A) and the deleted chromosome 9p21.3 sequences (n = 22, B) in glioblastomas. Note that the EGFR gene extends from 55,086,725 bp to 55,275,031 bp from pter positions (Entrez Gene, GeneID1956); in the 500K SNP array, the SNPs assayed in this region of chromosome 7p11.2 extended from the 55,062,691-bp to the 55,236,410-bp positions. Regarding del(9p21) no single gene was systematically deleted; however, both CDKN2A and CDKN2B were lost in all except one case.
