## Abstract Three patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with reciprocal 21q22/__RUNX1__(__AML1__) translocations involving chromosomes 1 and 4 were studied. Three novel __RUNX1__ translocation partner genes on 1q21.2 (__ZNF687__), 1p35 (__YTHDF2__), and 4q31.3 (__SH3D19__) were ident
Translocation t(8;21)(q22;q22) is a common karyotypic abnormality detected in about 15% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases. The rearrangement results in fusion of the RUNX1 (also known as AML1) and CBFA2T1 (also known as ETO) genes, generating a 5'RUNX1/3'CBFA2T1 transcriptionally active fusion g
