NCIt definition : A fusion gene that results from a chromosomal translocation t(6;11)(p21;q12) which
fuses the MALAT1 gene to the entire coding sequence of the TFEB gene. This rearrangement
is associated with renal cell carcinoma.;
NCIt note : The MALAT1 gene product is a noncoding RNA. Thus, the MALAT1/TFEB fusion gene results
in aberrant expression of the transcription factor EB protein rather than encoding
a fusion protein.;
