Similarly, the tumors from patient HK85 also show distinct CGMA-predicted cytogenetic profiles, reflecting the independent transforming mechanism (Figure 3).
Several mechanisms of genetic change are thought to lead to speciation, including gene evolution via coding sequence mutation, gene expression variation by regulatory element mutation and chromosomal rearrangement - which has the potential to create reproductive barriers and induce genetic isolation within an existing population [ 6 ] . Although a thorough determination of all genetic differences between humans and our closest non-human primate relatives will not be possible until the genomic sequences of great ape species have been determined, many of the chromosomal rearrangements between great apes have been previously characterized at the cytogenetic level.
As mutation analysis and protein expression studies are time-consuming, increasingly high-throughput gene-expression profiling is being used to identify abnormally expressed genes within a region of cytogenetic change [ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6].
Whereas cytogenetic profiling techniques, such as comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) [ 1], have been useful in finding genetic abnormalities, other experimental approaches are frequently used to identify which specific gene(s) drive selection for the genetic aberration and contribute most to tumor progression.
These same files were used to generate the cytogenetic figure; if the orientation of a contig was unknown, it was arbitrarily considered to be positive.
