## Abstract The t(1;21)(p36;q22) is a recurrent chromosome abnormality associated with therapy‐related acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Although involvement of __RUNX1__ has been detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis, the partner gene has not been reported previously. We identified a
## Abstract __POU5F1__(OCT3/4) is a sequence‐specific transcription factor that is essential for keeping germ cells and embryonic stem cells in an immature and pluripotent status. In this article, we report that __POU5F1__ was fused to __EWSR1__ in a case of undifferentiated sarcoma derived from pe
A subgroup of pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands is characterized by translocations involving chromosome 8, with consistent breakpoints at 8q 12. As part of a positional cloning effort to isolate the gene(s) affected by these translocations we now report the mapping of the 8q I 2 breakpoint
