NCIt definition : Human UQCRH wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1p34.1 and is approximately
13 kb in length. This allele, which encodes cytochrome b-c1 complex subunit 6, mitochondrial
protein, is involved in aerobic respiration. A complex rearrangement involving a paracentric
inversion of chromosome 22q12 followed by translocation t(1;22)(p34;q12) results in
the fusion of this gene to both the EWSR1 gene and the PATZ1 gene. These fusions are
associated with small round cell sarcoma.;
