Site-specific DNA cleavage within the MLL breakpoint cluster region induced by topoisomerase II inhibitors [see comments]
1 Apr 1996
Abstract excerpt
The MLL gene located at 11q23 is frequently disrupted by chromosomal translocation in a wide spectrum of newly diagnosed acute leukemias. Recently, it has become apparent that the MLL gene is very frequently disrupted by chromosomal translocations in patients with secondary leukemias associated with chemotherapeutic regimens incorporating topoisomerase II inhibitors. These secondary leukemias associated with...
