Abstract excerpt
Recurrent reciprocal chromosomal translocations are present in more than 50% of leukemias. A deeper understanding of how they affect cancer initiation is essential for evaluating the origins of cancer and the potential for therapy based on the translocation products. Mouse models of chromosomal translocations are required for this. Here we summarize three methodologies developed in our laboratory to model...
