Abstract excerpt
Abnormalities of chromosome 11 involving mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) on 11q23 are often seen in acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-M5 or AML-M4. The fusion gene of MLL-PTD and MLL plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of these AML. However, rare chromosome abnormalities have been identified in this type of leukemia. To explore whether there were other MLL gene mutations at M4 and M5, in this study all of the MLL...
