The EGR1/D5S23, D5S721 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human EGR1 gene, located on chromosomes band 5q31.2, and the D5S23-D5S721 STS marker region on chromosome band 5p15.2.
Abnormal expression of the EGR1 gene – also known as ERBB, HER1, mENA, ERBB1, PIG61 or NISBD2 – has been observed in lung cancer and many other solid tumor types.
