Abstract excerpt
Co-expression of multiple variants of the MLL/AF4 fusion transcript is a common phenomenon in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with t(4;11)(q21;q23). Different transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms were found to contribute to the heterogeneity of the chimeric transcripts. Multiple splice variants are generated by utilizing alternative splice sites that result in the joining of...
