We report on a novel chromosomal aberration, inv(8)(p11q24), in an M5 acute myeloid leukemia. We show by fluorescence in situ hybridization and Southern blot analyses that a t(8;16)(p11;p13) is masked by this inversion. The translocation targets the MOZ gene from the 8p11 and the CBP gene from the 1
Using a series of yeast artificial chromosomes (YAC) from the 8p I I -I 2 chromosome region, we have analyzed a t(822) translocation present in two patients suffering from acute leukemia by using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). We have identified a YAC that spans the breakpoint in both ca
