TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
tumoral   translocation    
acquired translocation t(12;15)(p13;q25) in congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN), and in tumour development
tumoral fusion translocation   protein chimeric
acquired t(12;15)(p13;q25) leading to a ETV6-NTRK3 gene fusion in congenital or infantile fibrosarcoma, in pediatric spindle cell sarcomas and secretory breast carcinoma
tumoral somatic mutation      
in breast, lung, and pancreatic cancers
tumoral     --over  
in medulloblastomas, identified as a powerful independent predictor of favorable survival outcome
tumoral     --over  
in disfiguring cutaneous appendageal tumours of CYLD
tumoral     --low  
in a large fraction of human colorectal cancers, mainly through promoter methylation
tumoral fusion      
fusion gene PLEKHA6-NTRK3 in langerhans cell histiocytosis
