Clinics and Pathology

Disease

acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

Phenotype stem cell origin

M4/M5

Epidemiology

Only three cases reported to date: all infants (2M/1F).

Clinics

Two boys aged 2 and 8 months respectively, achieved complete remission (1 yrs+, 5 yrs+), the newborn girl died soon for infection during induction.

Cytogenetics

Atlas Image
A. Partial Q-banded karyotype showing the t(10;11)(p11.2;q23), derivative chromosomes are on the right.
B. FISH using RP13-31H8 (ABI1) shows one signal on the normal chromosome 10 and the another one split between the p arm of der(10) (arrowheads) and the q arm of der(11) (arrow). The BAC clone was provided by Prof. M.Rocchi.

Gene name
KMT2A (myeloid/lymphoid or mixed lineage leukemia)
Location
11q23.3

Result of the Chromosomal Anomaly

Description

5 MLL-3 ABI1; fusion at MLL exon 6-7.
The breakpoint of ABI1 gene is the same in the two cases studied (nucleotide 433), while the breakpoint of MLL can be located either in exon 6 or 7.1727 amino acids (1406 from MLL and 321 from ABI-1); NH2- AT-hook, DNA methyltransferase, and transcriptional repression domain of MLL, fused to the homeodomain homologous region and the SH3 domain of ABI-1 in COOH.

Note

must not be confused with the t(10;11)(p12;q23) involving AF10 in 10p12 and MLL, or the t(10;11)(p13;q14-21), also involving AF10, but with CALM on chromosome 11
