The t(X;1)(p11.2;q21.2) translocation in papillary renal cell carcinoma fuses a novel gene PRCC to the TFE3 transcription factor gene
1 Sept 1996
Abstract excerpt
The specific chromosomal translocation t(X;1)(p11.2;q21.2) has been observed in human papillary renal cell carcinomas. In this study we demonstrated that this translocation results in the fusion of a novel gene designated PRCC at 1q21.2 to the TFE3 gene at Xp11.2. TFE3 encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors originally identified by its ability to bind to microE3...
