Recurring chromosomal translocations involving chromosome 11, band q23, have been observed in acute lymphoid leukemias and especially in acute myeloid leukemias. The authors recently showed that breakpoints in four 11q23 translocations, t(4,11)(q21;q23), t(6;11)(q27;q23), t(9;11)(p22;q23), and t(11;19)(q23;p13.3), were contained within a yeast artificial chromosome clone bearing the CD3D and CD3G gene loci. They have identified within the CD3 yeast artificial chromosome a transcription unit that spans the breakpoint junctions of the 4;11, 9;11, and 11;19 translocations, and they describe two other, related transcripts that are upregulated in the RS4;11 cell line. They have named this gene MLL (myeloid/lymphoid, or mixed-lineage, leukemia).
