ABSTRACT:
Gene probes containing genetic sequences that code for proteins which are phenotypically characteristic of certain leukemias, such as chronic myelogenous leukemia, can be prepared from RNA of a person having that disease. A useful probe has been found which comprises a sequence localized to chromosome 8, the sequence being complementary to a mRNA that is characteristically present in high abundance in chronic myelogenous leukemia cells. The gene probes can be used in diagnostic hybridization tests with RNA or a patient to be diagnosed.
