HGNC id 13639
ASSOCIATED DISORDERS
corresponding disease(s)
Other morbid association(s)
TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
constitutional     --other  
aberrant expression of VENTX in normal CD34+ progenitor cells perturbs normal hematopoietic development, promoting generation of myeloid cells and impairing generation of lymphoid cells
tumoral     --other  
aberrantly expressed in malignant myeloid cells with particularly high expression in AML cases with t(8;21) or normal karyotype
tumoral     --low  
in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
tumoral     --other  
altered expression associated with corresponding changes of LEF1 target oncogenes such as CCND1, suggesting a potential role of VENTX in the clinical behavior of hematopoietic malignancies
