Exon Array Profiling Detects <i>EML4-ALK</i> Fusion in Breast, Colorectal, and Non–Small Cell Lung Cancers
8 Sept 2009
Abstract excerpt
The echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EML4-ALK) fusion gene has been identified as an oncogene in a subset of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). We used profiling of cancer genomes on an exon array to develop a novel computational method for the global search of gene rearrangements. This approach led to the detection of EML4-ALK fusion in breast and colorectal...
