NCIt definition : Human EML4 wild-type allele is located within 2p22-p21 and is approximately 163 kb
in length. This allele which encodes echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like
4, may be involved in the modulation of microtubule assembly. An inversion on chromosome
2, which fuses the gene to the ALK gene, is associated with non-small cell lung cancer.;
