The MLL gene and translocations involving chromosomal band 11q23 in acute leukemia.
Reciprocal chromosomal translocations are recurrent features of many hematological malignancies. The cloning of the genes located at the breakpoints of chromosomal translocations in leukemia and lymphoma has led to the identification of new genes involved in carcinogenesis. Molecular studies of the breakpoint of several translocations involving chromosomal band 11q23 led to the cloning of a gen...
متن کاملRAPID COMMUNICATION Panhandle Polymerase Chain Reaction Amplifies MLL Genomic Translocation Breakpoint Involving Unknown Partner Gene
We used a new approach called panhandle polymerase chain sequence tags. MaLR sequences have not been found before near leukemia-associated translocation breakpoints. The reaction (PCR) to clone an MLL genomic translocation breakpoint in a case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia of innonrepetitive sequences were not homologous to known partner genes of MLL. Screening of somatic cell hybrid and fanc...
متن کاملPanhandle polymerase chain reaction amplifies MLL genomic translocation breakpoint involving unknown partner gene.
We used a new approach called panhandle polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to clone an MLL genomic translocation breakpoint in a case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia of infancy in which karyotype analysis was technically unsuccessful and did not show the translocation partner. Panhandle PCR amplified known MLL sequence 5' of the breakpoint and 3' sequence from the unknown partner gene from a DNA t...
متن کاملBrief Definitive Report CHROMOSOMAL TRANSLOCATION INVOLVING THE a T CELL RECEPTOR GENE IN ACUTE LEUKEMIA
Chromosomal translocations are implicated as important pathogenetic events in many human malignancies (1) . For tumors of B-lymphoid origin, the Ig genes are frequent sites of chromosomal translocations, most commonly resulting in juxtaposition of Ig genes with the c-myc or bcl-2 genes (2) . In rare T cell cancers, the TCR-a gene may be translocated into close proximity of the c-myc protooncoge...
متن کاملChromosomal translocation involving the beta T cell receptor gene in acute leukemia
DNA spanning a t(7;19) chromosomal translocation breakpoint was isolated from the human T cell line SUP-T7 established from an acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Nucleotide sequence analysis showed that the point of crossover on chromosome 7 occurred immediately adjacent to joining segment J beta 1.1 within the TCR-beta gene, suggesting that this translocation resulted from an error in TCR gene rear...
