We have examined the long arm of chromosome 17 in sporadic breast carcinomas for the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at 18 polymorphic loci. At least three distinct regions could be identified by the frequency of LOH and confirmed by high density deletion maps of individual tumor DNAs. A proximal region affected by LOH is located in a 22-cM region defined by D17S73 and NME1 and thus is similar in location to the region thought to contain the BRCA1 gene associated with familial breast and breast/ovarian cancer. The central region affected by LOH is bordered by the D17S86 and D17S21 loci and is estimated to be 28 cM in size. The third region is bordered by the D17S20 and D17S77 loci which are 11 cM apart. These results define three independent regions of chromosome 17q which are likely to contain tumor suppressor genes relevant to the etiology of sporadic breast carcinoma.
