Identification of the chimeric protein product of the <i>CBFB‐MYH11</i> fusion gene in inv(16) leukemia cells
1 Jun 1996
Abstract excerpt
An expressed gene formed by fusion between the CBFB transcription factor gene and the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain gene MYH11 is consistently detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in patients who have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) subtype M4Eo with an inversion of chromosome 16. We have previously shown that a CBFB-MYH11 cDNA construct can produce a chimeric protein and transform...
