Etoposide-induced apoptosis results in chromosome breaks within the AF9 gene: Its implication in chromosome rearrangement in leukaemia

Treatment with etoposide (VP-16) has been associated with translocation of the mixed lineage leukaemia (MLL) gene seen in treatment-related acute myeloid leukaemia (t-AML). Among the different partner genes, AF9 is the most common partner gene of MLL. AF9 shares similar structural element with the M...
