| Clinics and Pathology |
| Disease | Myeloid disorders: one chronic myelogenous leukemia with t(9;22) and one refractory anemiia with excee of blasts in transformation |
| Epidemiology | only 2 cases so far: 1 male and 1 female patient, aged 50 and 66 yrs |
| Prognosis | unknown so far |
| Genes involved and Proteins |
| Gene Name | MDS2 |
| Location | 1p36 |
| Dna / Rna | 7 exons; alternate splicing |
| Gene Name | ETV6 |
| Location | 12p13 |
| Dna / Rna | 9 exons; alternate splicing |
| Protein | contains a Helix-Loop-Helix and ETS DNA binding domains; wide expression; nuclear localisation; ETS-related transcription factor |
| Result of the chromosomal anomaly |
| Description | 5' ETV6 - 3' MDS2; exons 1 and 2 of ETV6 are fused to exons 6 and 7 of MDS2; fusion is not in frame; the reciprocal fusion gene is not expressed |
| Description | truncated ETV6 lacking the PTN domain and the DNA binding domain |
