The Wilms tumour gene WT1 in leukaemia.

Leukemia & lymphoma - 1 Oct 1997

Pritchard-Jones K, King-Underwood L

Abstract excerpt

The WT1 gene is essential for kidney development and is mutated in some Wilms tumours. It is also expressed at a high level in many acute leukaemias and in some haematopoietic progenitor cells, and mutations have been found in leukaemias. The function of WT1, which is a zinc finger protein and has domains characteristic of transcription factors, is not well understood. The level of expression is highest in...
