9;14 – PAX5/IGH

PAX5/IGH, t(9:14)(p13; q32) t(9:14)(p13; q32) is an atypical recurrent chromosomal abnormality that is detected exclusively in B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. PAX5 belongs to a family of transcription factors involved in processes of development and its expression is required during the early stages of B cell development. The translocation affects the gene PAX5, which abnormally locates on
