====== Chromosome 14 ======


Loss of genetic material on [[chromosome]] 14q may play an important role in the molecular genetic [[glioblastoma pathogenesis]]. The chromosomal regions at D14S65 on 14q31-32.3 and from D14S63 to D14S74 on 14q21-24.1 may harbor novel [[tumor suppressor gene]]s associated with [[glioblastoma]].

Immunoglobulin heavy locus, also known as IGH, is a region on human [[chromosome 14]] that contains a gene for the heavy chains of human antibodies (or immunoglobulins).
