Clinics and Pathology
Disease
de novo and treatment related acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS); acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at times
Phenotype stem cell origin
various subtypes of AML may be found, M4 in particular, but also M1, M2, M5
Epidemiology
at least 24 cases described; often found in children and young adults
Prognosis
poor
Genes Involved and Proteins
Gene name
KMT2A (myeloid/lymphoid or mixed lineage leukemia)
Location
11q23.3
Protein description
contains two DNA binding motifs (a AT hook, and Zinc fingers), a DNA methyl transferase motif, a bromodomain; transcriptional regulatory factor; nuclear localisation
Gene name
SEPT9 (MLL septin-like fusion)
Location
17q25.2
Protein description
protein which belongs to the septin family
Result of the Chromosomal Anomaly
Description
5 MLL - 3 MSF; fusion at MLL exon 5; the reciprocal MSF-MLL is also transcribed, but out of frameNH2 - AT hook and DNA methyltransferase from MLL fused to most of MSF in COOH
