BRIEF REPORT

A novel gene, NSD1, is fused to NUP98 in the t(5;11)(q35;p15.5) in de novo childhood acute myeloid leukemia

From the LRF Molecular Haematology Unit, Nuffield Department of Clinical Laboratory Sciences, University of Oxford; and MRC Molecular Haematology Unit, Institute of Molecular Medicine; both of John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom; Children's Cancer Research Institute, St Anna Kinderspital, Vienna, Austria; Department of Haematology, Imperial College School of Medicine, Hammersmith Hospital, London, United Kingdom; Life Sciences Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, CA; and Division of Clinical Sciences, National Cancer Institute, Gaithersburg, MD.

The recurrent translocation t(5;11)(q35;p15.5) associated with a 5q deletion, del(5q), has been reported in childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We report the cloning of the translocation breakpoints in de novo childhood AML harboring a cryptic t(5;11)(q35;p15.5). Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis demonstrated that the nucleoporin gene (NUP98) at 11p15.5 was disrupted by this translocation. By using 3'-rapid amplification of complementary DNA ends (3'-RACE) polymerase chain reaction, we identified a chimeric messenger RNA that results in the in-frame fusion of NUP98 to a novel gene, NSD1. The NSD1 gene has 2596 amino acid residues and a 85% homology to the murine Nsd1 with the domain structure being conserved. The NSD1 gene was localized to 5q35 by FISH and is widely expressed. The reciprocal transcript, NSD1-NUP98, was also detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. This is the first report in which the novel gene NSD1 has been implicated in human malignancy.
