<i>PPP1R7</i> Is a Novel Translocation Partner of <i>CBFB</i> via t(2;16)(q37;q22) in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

In a subset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases, the core binding factor beta subunit gene (<i>CBFB</i>) was rearranged via inv(16)(p13.1q22) or t(16;16)(p13.1;q22), in which the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11 gene (<i>MYH11</i>) was the partner (<i>CBFB::MYH11&l...

description In a subset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases, the core binding factor beta subunit gene (<i>CBFB</i>) was rearranged via inv(16)(p13.1q22) or t(16;16)(p13.1;q22), in which the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11 gene (<i>MYH11</i>) was the partner (<i>CBFB::MYH11</i>). Rare variants of <i>CBFB</i> rearrangement occurring via non-classic chromosomal aberrations have been reported, such as t(1;16), t(2;16), t(3;16), t(5;16), and t(16;19), but the partners of <i>CBFB</i> have not been characterized. We report a case of AML with a complex karyotype, including t(2;16)(q37;q22), in which the protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 7 gene (<i>PPP1R7</i>) at chromosome 2q37 was rearranged with <i>CBFB</i> (<i>CBFB::PPP1R7</i>). This abnormality was inconspicuous by conventional karyotype and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), thus leading to an initial interpretation of inv(16)(p13.1q22); however, metaphase FISH showed that the <i>CBFB</i> rearrangement involved chromosome 2. Using whole genome and Sanger sequencing, the breakpoints were identified as being located in intron 5 of <i>CBFB</i> and intron 7 of <i>PPP1R7</i>. A microhomology of CAG was found in the break and reconnection sites of <i>CBFB</i> and <i>PPP1R7</i>, thus supporting the formation of <i>CBFB::PPP1R7</i> by microhomology-mediated end joining.
