Using a functional genetic approach, we previously identified a novel genetic locus, NRC-1 (Nonpapillary Renal Cell Carcinoma 1), that mediated tumor suppression and rapid cell death of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells in vivo. For these experiments, a defined subchromosomal fragment of human chromosome 3p was transferred into a sporadic RCC cell line via microcell fusion, and microcell hybrid ...
