Variant translocations (2;18 and 18;22) are described in this review. The chromosomal and molecular findings of these translocation of BCL2 and their effect on possible BCL2 gene activation is discussed. Unanswered questions still remain and these include why this is so rare compared to the 25% incidence recorded for translocations in Burkitt's lymphoma. Further studies are obviously still needed in order to determine the true frequency of these findings and their distribution in the various B-cell disorders.

D011518 Proto-Oncogene Proteins Products of proto-oncogenes. Normally they do not have oncogenic or transforming properties, but are involved in the regulation or differentiation of cell growth. They often have protein kinase activity.

D005803 Genes, Immunoglobulin Genes encoding the different subunits of the IMMUNOGLOBULINS, for example the IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAIN GENES and the IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAIN GENES. The heavy and light immunoglobulin genes are present as gene segments in the germline cells. The completed genes are created when the segments are shuffled and assembled (B-LYMPHOCYTE GENE REARRANGEMENT) during B-LYMPHOCYTE maturation. The gene segments of the human light and heavy chain germline genes are symbolized V (variable), J (joining) and C (constant). The heavy chain germline genes have an additional segment D (diversity).
