• On average: 24 gains <strong>and</strong> 18 losses<br />

• Most frequent - Myc amplification <strong>and</strong> Cdkn2A/B (p16ink4a <strong>and</strong> Arf)<br />

deletion.<br />

• At least 10 known tumor suppressors not identified by this analysis -<br />

Brca2, Fbxw7, Nf2, Ptch1, Smarcb1, Stk11, Sufu, Vhl, Wt1, <strong>and</strong> Wtx<br />

- Some of these are specific to cancer types (e.g. Nf2, Wt1)<br />

- Other primarily suffer arm-level deletions (e.g. Brca2)<br />

- Some TS genes undergo point mutations not deletions
