Genes located at on the short arm of chromosome 11, at band p15 whose absence is associated with the formation of Wilms tumor. This Wilms tumor locus is also associated with BECKWITH-WIEDEMANN SYNDROME. Tumor suppressor gene located in the 11p13 region on the short arm of human chromosome 11. The absence of this gene is associated with the formation of Wilms tumor.
