Through the application of the NIH/3T3 tumorigenicity assay to DNA
from a gastric carcinoma, we have identified a novel transforming gene,
designated myeov (myeloma overexpressed gene in a subset of
t[11;14]-positive multiple myelomas). Sequence analyses did not
reveal any homology with sequences present in the GenBank, except the
deduced protein structure predicts a transmembrane localization.
Myeov was mapped to chromosome 11q13 and localized by DNA fiber
fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) 360-kilobase (kb) centromeric
of cyclin D1. In 3 of 7 multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines
with a t(11;14)(q13;q32) and cyclin-D1 overexpression, Northern
blot analysis revealed overexpression of myeov as well. In all
7 cell lines, the translocation breakpoint was mapped within the 360-kb
region between myeov and cyclin D1. DNA fiber FISH with
a contig of probes covering the constant region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) revealed that exclusively in the 3 myeov-overexpressing cell lines (KMS-12, KMS-21, and XG-5),
either the 5' Eµ enhancer or the most telomeric 3' E
enhancer was juxtaposed to myeov. Although cyclin D1
overexpression represents a characteristic feature of all MM cell lines
with t(11;14), our results demonstrate aberrant expression of a second
putative oncogene in a subset of these cases, due to juxtaposition to
IgH enhancers. The clinical relevance of this dual activation remains
to be elucidated.
