ABSTRACT:
A gene is described which is involved in the neoplastic process of a number of different cancers. The gene, termed TCL-5, is located at chromosome 1, band 32, adjacent to the chromosome junction formed during a t(1;14)(p32;q11) translocation. Probes and primers for detecting TCL-5 rearrangements are provided, as well as methods for detecting abnormalities in TCL-5 expression.
