This ''ETV6'' gene, either as a translocation partner with dozens of partner genes or having simple substitution mutations, is found at a low level in many cancers ([https://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/cosmic/gene/analysis?ln=etv6 see COSMIC]); it is more prominent as a fusion protein in a number of hematological malignancies [1,2,[http://www.omim.org/entry/600618 see OMIM]].

The t(12;21)(p13;q22) resulting in ETV6-RUNX1 fusion has been found in 25% of childhood B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), but are much less common in adult B-ALL (only 2%) [2].  The fusion protein produced by the translocation confers a dominant negative effect on the normal RUNX1 protein, resulting in transcriptional activation become transcriptional repression [1,2].  The t(12;21) confers a favorable prognosis with cures seen in >90% of childhood B-ALL [1].
