Patent Images
1. A composition comprising at least one of the following:
- (a) an oligonucleotide probe that hybridizes to a junction of a chimeric genomic DNA or a chimeric mRNA, wherein a 5′
portion of the chimeric genomic DNA or the chimeric mRNA is from an AGTRAP gene and a 3′
portion of the chimeric genomic DNA or the chimeric mRNA is from a RAF family member gene;
(b) an antibody specific for a fusion protein having an amino-terminal portion encoded by an angiotensin II, type I receptor-associated protein (AGTRAP) gene and a carboxy-terminal portion encoded by a kinase domain of a RAF family member gene.
