The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1, t9:22;34:q11) is a reciprocal translocation between chromosome 22 and chromosome 9 which results in the formation of the chimeric BCR/ABL oncogene. Alternative forms of BCR/ABL are produced by splicing different sets of exons of the BCR gene to a common set of c-ABL sequences. This results in the formation of an 8.7 kilobase mRNA that encodes the P210 BCR/ABL gene product or a...
