    1. ETV6 mutations in early immature human T cell leukemias

      [Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC3244026

      Evidence Type(s): Functional, Oncogenic

      Justification: Functional: The text describes how ETV6 mutations (Y103fs, S105fs, V345fs, N356fs) result in functionally inactive proteins that lack transcriptional repression activity, indicating their functional consequences in the context of leukemia. Oncogenic: The presence of ETV6 mutations is associated with a characteristic gene expression signature in immature adult T cell leukemias, suggesting a role in leukemia development and indicating their oncogenic potential.

      Gene→Variant (gene-first): ETV6(2120):N356fs ETV6(2120):S105fs ETV6(2120):V345fs ETV6(2120):Y103fs

      Genes: ETV6(2120)

      Variants: N356fs S105fs V345fs Y103fs

    2. To elucidate the functional consequences of ETV6 alterations, we performed luciferase reporter assays using an ETV6-responsive reporter construct (pGL2-754TR) derived from the stromelysin-1 gene. In line with the role of

      Evidence Type(s): Functional, Diagnostic

      Justification: Functional: The passage discusses how the ETV6 mutants (V345fs, N356fs, Y103fs, S105fs) are functionally inactive and lack transcriptional repression activity, indicating that these variants alter molecular function. Diagnostic: The passage mentions that ETV6-mutated cases have a characteristic gene expression signature and that all ETV6 mutant T-ALL samples were CD33 positive, suggesting that these variants are associated with a specific disease subtype.

    3. The ETV6 tumor suppressor gene is frequently translocated in lymphoid and myeloid hematopoietic tumors and encodes a transcriptional repressor with an N-terminal pointed (PNT) homodimerization domain and a C-terminal ETS

      [Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC3244026 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 8

      Evidence Type(s): Functional, Oncogenic

      Justification: Functional: The passage describes how N-terminal and C-terminal truncating mutations in the ETV6 gene alter the expression of truncated protein products, indicating a change in molecular function. Oncogenic: The context of the mutations being associated with hematopoietic tumors suggests that these somatic variants contribute to tumor development or progression.
