RNA sequencing identifies a novel USP9X‐USP6 promoter swap gene fusion in a primary aneurysmal bone cyst

Abstract excerpt

Primary aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a benign multiloculated cystic lesion of bone that is defined cytogenetically by USP6 gene rearrangements. Rearrangements involving USP6 are promoter swaps, usually generated by fusion of the noncoding upstream exons of different partner genes with exon 1 or 2 of USP6, thus leading to transcriptional upregulation of full-length USP6 coding sequence. Testing for USP6...
