Project description:We detected numerous copy number aberrations in SNP arrays from follicular lymphoma patients. Additionally, we found an outstanding homozygous state involving folic acid-related genes. To study a hypothetical association between both traits, we cultured folate-depleted cell lines. After restoring normal medium to the cultures, we performed CGH arrays to examine the induced copy number aberrations.
