The inv(11)(p15q22) Chromosome Translocation of De Novo and Therapy-Related Myeloid Malignancies Results in Fusion of the Nucleoporin Gene, NUP98, With the Putative RNA Helicase Gene, DDX10

Abstract excerpt

The inv(11)(p15q22) is a recurrent chromosomal abnormality associated with de novo and therapy-related myeloid malignancies. Here we report the molecular definition of this chromosomal aberration in four patients. Positional cloning showed the consistent rearrangement of the DDX10 gene on chromosome 11q22, which encodes a putative RNA helicase. The translocation targets the NUP98 gene on 11p15, a member of the FG...
