The-1990 identified a new gene on chromosome 15 which is involved with the
RARA gene in the formation of a fusion product." | SUM | The PML
gene, involved in the breakpoint on chromosome 15, is a putative
transcription factor: it contains a cysteine-rich motif that resembles a
zinc finger DNA-binding domain common to several classes of transcriptional
factors. Its physiologic role is unknown. Two fusion genes, PML-RARA and
RARA-PML, are formed as a result of the characteristic translocation in
acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Heterogeneity of the chromosome 15
breakpoints accounts for the diverse architecture of the PML-RARA mRNAs
isolated from different APL patients, and alternative splicing of PML exons
gives rise to multiple isoforms of the PML-RARA mRNAs even within a single
patient. Alcalay-1992 investigated the organization and expression pattern
of the RARA-PML gene in a series of APL patients. An RARA-PML transcript
was present in most, but not all, APL patients. Among 70 patients with APL,
Diverio-1992 found an abnormality in intron 2 of the RARA gene in all
cases, with clustering of rearrangements within the 20-kb intronic region
separating exons 2 and 3. A curious difference was found in the location of
breakpoints in males and females: breakpoints at the 5-prime end of intron
2 of the RARA gene occurred in females and 3-prime breakpoints predominated
in males." | REF | EXP,ABR "Alcalay M &: PNAS, 89, 4840-4844,
