The 8p11 Myeloproliferative Syndrome: A Distinct Clinical Entity Caused by Constitutive Activation of <i>FGFR1</i>
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
Several recurrent translocations that involve chromosome band 8p11 have been described in myeloid malignancies. These translocations target two distinct genes: (1) FGFR1, a receptor tyrosine kinase for fibroblast growth factors, and (2) MOZ, a putative histone acetyltransferase whose precise function remains to be defined.
