Abstract excerpt
The TEL gene is involved in several chromosomal abnormalities of human hematopoietic malignancies. The chromosome 12 breakpoints frequently lie within the fifth intron of the gene, particularly in the most frequent translocation involving TEL, the t(12;21)(p13;q22). In order to search for a peculiar mechanism involved in the genesis of these translocations, we have established the sequence of two t(12;21) and a...
