RB1 FISH Probe

The RB1 FISH probe is designed to hybridize to the RB1 gene and is primarily used for detecting amplifications and deletions associated with the gene. This probe is FISH confirmed on normal peripheral blood metaphase spreads and interphase nuclei. The probe can be labeled in one of five colors. Each probe is sold in a 20 test kit (approximately 20 slides - 22x22 mm area) and includes hybridization buffer. Please note that due to design optimizations, prices are subject to change.

Gene Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a negative regulator of the cell cycle and was the first tumor suppressor gene found. The encoded protein also stabilizes constitutive heterochromatin to maintain the overall chromatin structure. The active, hypophosphorylated form of the protein binds transcription factor E2F1. Defects in this gene are a cause of childhood cancer retinoblastoma (RB), bladder cancer, and osteogenic sarcoma. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The Utility of ERBB4 and RB1 Immunohistochemistry in Distinguishing Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma From Renal Oncocytoma

Renal oncocytoma (RO) is a benign epithelial neoplasm that makes up about 5 to 9% of all renal cell tumors. RO can be difficult to distinguish from a closely related but malignant counterpart, chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (ChrCC). This study used both IHC and FISH to detect the presence of RB1 and ERBB4, two genes that have been found deleted in ChrCC but not RO. A total of 28 ChrCCs and 25 RO cases were tested. Empire Genomics’ RB1 and ERBB4 FISH probes were used to detect deletions in these genes.
