(A) Standard cytogenetic analysis of leukemic cells with the t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2) and ?del(21)(q22) (UPN 02H056). (B) Spectral karyotype of leukemic cells with the t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2) and t(1;21)(p36.32;q22) (UPN 02H056). (C) FISH on metaphases with the t(1;21)(p36.32;q22) (UPN 02H056) using the RUNX1 probe (BAC RP11-299D9) that shows one signal on the normal chromosome 21 and a split signal on the rearranged der(1) and der(21) (long arrows). (D) FISH on metaphases with the t(1;21)(p36.32;q22) (UPN 02H056) using the PRDM16 probe (PAC RP1-163G9) that shows one signal on the normal chromosome 1 (short arrow) and a split signal on the der(1) and der(21) (long arrows).

Schematic representation of RUNX1 and PRDM16 wild-type proteins and the putative chimeric protein RUNX1/PRDM16. Partial nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the two RUNX1/PRDM16 in-frame fusions. Arrows indicate the t(1;21) breakpoints. RHD, runt homology domain; TA, transactivation domain; PRD, PR domain; ZnF, zinc finger domain; PRR, proline-rich domain; RD, repressor domain; AD, acidic domain.

Expression analysis of PRDM16 (exons 9 and 10) using real-time PCR in 105 samples: 4 normal bone marrow (BM) samples, CD34 isolated from normal bone marrow (CD34+), 5 normal peripheral blood (PB) samples, one colon carcinoma cell line (HCT-116), 4 CML-BP derived cell lines: K562, KU812, MC3, MEG01, 14 MDS and MDS/AML, 7 CML-BP (including present case with t(1;21), 02-H056), present CML case in chronic phase (CML-CP, 00-H59), 68 AML (FAB type: M0, M1, M2, M4, M5 of different cytogenetic groups and AML with t(11)(q23), t(15;17), and t(8;21) and with inv(16)). All samples were tested in duplicate and the average values were used for quantification. The graph shows ratios of 1/ΔCt. The horizontal gray line indicates the average ratio in the four normal bone marrow samples (calibrator) and the horizontal dotted lines indicate an arbitrary 1/ΔCt ratio of 0.21 and 0.09 for significant up or down-regulation respectively (or mRNA levels more than 10-fold above or under value detected in normal BM control cells). ΔCt values are: 04-H070: 3.1; 02-H056: 0.3; 06-H006: 3.4; 00-H59: 7.3; 02-H009: 0.2; 02-H075: 3.1; 03-H033: 1.9; 04-H120: 1.7; 04-H006: 0.5; 04-H054: −2.2; 03-H052: 1.1; Average normal BM: 8.0.
