The t(4;14) Translocation in Myeloma Dysregulates Both FGFR3and a Novel Gene, MMSET, Resulting in IgH/MMSET Hybrid Transcripts
1998-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Previously we reported that a karyotypically silent t(4;14)(p16.3;q32.3) translocation is present in about 25% of multiple myeloma (MM) tumors, and causes overexpression of FGFR3, which is 50 to 100 kb telomeric to the 4p16 breakpoints. Frequent FGFR3 kinase activating mutations in MM with t(4;14) translocations substantiate an oncogenic role for FGFR3. We now report that the 4p16 breakpoints occur telomeric to an...
