NCIt definition : A fusion gene that results from a chromosomal translocation t(5;12)(q31;p13) which
fuses the 5' portion of the ACSL6 gene and the 3' portion of the ETV6 gene. In a patient
with acute myelogenous leukemia with eosinophilia, this rearrangement fused exons
1-9 of the ACSL6 gene to either intron 2 or exon 3 of the ETV6 gene and does not produce
a fusion protein. In one patient with refractory anemia with excess blasts with basophilia,
this rearrangement fused exon 19 of the ACSL6 gene with a site within exon 1 of the
ETV6 gene and could result in the production of a fusion protein.;
