c-PBX1at 1q23 in normal cells: PAC 953E11 - Courtesy Mariano Rocchi, Resources for Molecular Cytogenetics.
Transcription
1.8 kb; alternate splicing -->PBX1a and PBX1b, different only
in the C-Term
Proteins
Description
338 (PBX1b) and 430 (PBX1a) amino acids; 37 kDa; homeodomain
(to binds to DNA)
Expression
ubiquitously expressed, except in B and T lineages
Localisation
nuclear (probable)
Function
associated to HOX proteins, can bind to specific DNA sequences (5
ATCAATCAA 3), for transcription regulation
Homology
PBX2 and PBX3 have nearly identical homeodomains; homeobox
proteins; homologues of the fly protein extradenticle
Implicated in
Entity name
Disease
pre B ALL mainly; CD19+, CD10+, CD9+
Prognosis
controversial data; associated with poor prognostic features
Cytogenetics
two different forms: - the balanced t(1;19); - the unbalanced
form, with 2 normal chromosomes 1, a der(19), and a normal chromosome19:
additional anomalies: in half of the cases; they are various
Hybrid gene
5 E2A from 19p13 fused to 3 PBX1; breakpoints are clustered
on both genes
Fusion protein
N-term transcriptional activation domains from E2A fused to the
Hox cooperative motif and homeodomain of C-term PBX1
Oncogenesis
potent transcriptional activator; pleiotropic transforming activity
Breakpoints
