FUSION GENES
DNA/RNA
Transcription
Major mRNA: 4 kb; other: 3 and 9 kb.
Proteins

Description
652 amino acids.
Function
Role in the integration of signals from different pathways (clathrin, phosphoinositols, receptor-mediated endocytosis).
Homology
With AP3 (Adaptor Related Proteins), a clathrin assembly protein, and SNAP91 (AP180).
Implicated in
Entity name
Disease
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) mainly; at times acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and/or AML with T-cell markers (Dreyling et al., 1996; Kobayashi et al., 1997).
Prognosis
uncertain (median survival 2 yrs?).
Cytogenetics
may well be confused with the t(10;11)(p12;q23) , where KMT2A in 11q23 is involved, instead of PICALM
Hybrid gene
5 PICALM - 3 MLLT10
Fusion protein
Both PICALM-MLLT10 and the reciprocal MLLT10-PICALM are expressed.
Entity name
Disease
AML and B-cell ALL (Meyer et al., 2013; Wechsler et al., 2003).
Hybrid gene
5 KMT2A - 3 PICALM
Fusion protein
The KMT2A/PICALM fusion protein was contained 1803 amino acids and included 1406 amino acids from KMT2A A-T hooks and repression domain, and a PICALM-derived clathrin-binding domain in Wechsler et al., 2003.
