To address whether mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in perforin gene (PRF1) are correlated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in Chinese, we screened mutations in codon region of PRF1 in 111 ALL patients, and correlated the results with patients' immunophenotype, karyotype and fusion genes. Four novel monoallelic missense and two novel monoallelic synonymous mutations (G198R, R225Q,...
