Abstract excerpt
The PML gene located on chromosome band 15q22 is involved with the RAR alpha locus (17q21) in a balanced reciprocal translocation uniquely observed in acute promyelocytic leukemia. Physical mapping studies by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis revealed that the PML gene is flanked by two CpG island...
