  Cancer quest: The Cancer Genome Project
"The human genome sequence is utterly essential to the Cancer Genome Project," says Professor Mike Stratton.
In the first phase of the project, Professor Stratton and his team have been looking for large homozygous deletions, where the same piece of the genome have been lost from both copies of the genome in a cell.
Such deletions are clues to the location of cancer genes in the genome, in particular the so-called tumour suppressor genes, whose loss leads cells to grow and divide uncontrollably.
