Rare t(X;14)(q28;q32) translocation reveals link between MTCP1 and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Some genes that are part of balanced translocations are reported as drivers for tumourigenesis. Here, the authors report a translocation involving MTCP1 in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and show that MTCP1 overexpression leads to the disease in a murine model.
