| Identity |
| Note | Two distinct clinical syndromes have been associated with the 8p11-p12 region : The partners of 8p11 are 8q13, 14q11, 16p13, 19q13, 22q13 and 3q27, 17q12 in a complexe translocation t(3;8;17)(q27;p11;q12). |
| Clinics and Pathology |
| Disease | Acute myelomonocytic or monocytic leukaemia (M4, M5a, M5b) associated with erythrophagocytosis by blasts noted to various degree. |
| Epidemiology | Rare |
| Cytology | Morphology feature observed in AML with t(8;16). |
| Prognosis | probably poor |
| Cytogenetics |
| Cytogenetics Morphological | t(8;19) (p11;q13) is a variant of t(8;16) (p11;p13) |
| Additional anomalies | Two cases : |
| Genes involved and Proteins |
| Gene Name | MOZ |
| Location | 8p11 |
| Note | MOZ contains a LAP (Leukemia associated protein) zinc finger domain, a HAT domain (Histone acetyltransferase) and a acidic domain. Detection by FISH : YAC 176C9. |
| Protein | ZNF220 Monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein 2004 amino acids and 225 kDa nuclear protein, with 2 LAP/PHD-type zinc fingers. MOZ is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and the founding member of the MYST family of HATs, a family that includes proteins involved in cell cycle regulation, chromatin remodeling and dosage compensation. MOZ plays an important role during hematopoiesis with his transcriptional coregulator activity. |
| Gene Name | The partner of MOZ is unknown in this translocation. |
| Location | 19q13 |
| Result of the chromosomal anomaly |
| Note | In the t(8 ;19) the fusion protein is unknown. |
