NCIt definition : Human PLAG1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 8q12 and is approximately
50 kb in length. This allele, which encodes zinc finger protein PLAG1, plays a role
in cellular proliferation. Mutation or translocation of this gene is associated with
hepatoblastoma, lipoblastoma and salivary gland pleiomorphic adenomas.;
NCIt note : Pathological translocations involving the PLAG1 gene include t(3;8)(p21;q12), which
fuses this gene to the CTNNB1 gene, and t(7;8)(p22;q13), which fuses PLAG1 to the
COL1A2 gene. (SwissProt);
