  • Title: Rearrangement of the E2A gene in the t (1;19) acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
    Author: Jonveaux P, Berger R.
    Journal: Nouv Rev Fr Hematol (1978); 1991; 33(6):547-9. PubMed ID: 1818313.
    Abstract:
    Recent studies have demonstrated that the E2A gene encoding helix-loop-helix proteins E12/E47 is fused to a novel homeobox gene PBX1, as a result of the t (1;19) translocation observed in pre-B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias. Molecular diagnostic techniques, including PCR, of the t (1;19) are now possible and provide an useful tool in conjunction with cytogenetics to identify involvement of E2A and PBX1 genes in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
