TXNDC5-RREB1 Fusion FISH Probe

The TXNDC5-RREB1 Fusion FISH Probe is used to confirm a fusion of the TXNDC5 and RREB1 genes. The fusion of the TXNDC5 and RREB1 genes has been associated with Prostate Adenocarcinoma. These probes are FISH confirmed on normal peripheral blood in both interphase nuclei and metaphase spreads before shipment. Typical turnaround time for this product is 7-14 days after purchase.

** This product is for in vitro and research use only. This product is not intended for diagnostic use. Please note that both genes fall on the same chromosome and inter-chromosomal detection may be difficult to detect depending on the genes proximity to one another. Please consult our support staff before ordering this product to ensure that the probe can be designed to meet your specific needs.

RREB1 Gene Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger transcription factor that binds to RAS-responsive elements (RREs) of gene promoters. It has been shown that the calcitonin gene promoter contains an RRE and that the encoded protein binds there and increases expression of calcitonin, which may be involved in Ras/Raf-mediated cell differentiation. Multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

Gene Name: Ras Responsive Element Binding Protein 1

Chromosome: CHR6: 7107829 -7252213

Locus: 6p24.3

TXNDC5 Gene Summary

This gene encodes a member of the disulfide isomerase (PDI) family of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins that catalyze protein folding and thiol-disulfide interchange reactions. The encoded protein has an N-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-signal sequence, three catalytically active thioredoxin domains and a C-terminal ER-retention sequence. Its expression is induced by hypoxia and its role may be to protect hypoxic cells from apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the neighboring upstream BLOC1S5 gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

Gene Name: Thioredoxin Domain Containing 5

Chromosome: CHR6: 7881482 -7911047

Locus: 6p24.3

Comparison of melanoma gene expression score with histopathology, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and SNP array for the classification of melanocytic neoplasms

Melanomas with ambiguous histology can be difficult to distinguish from benign nevi. Cytogenetic tests, therefore, have proven highly useful in differentiating melanomas from benign tumors. This study tested the efficacy of FISH at genetically characterizing 70 morphologically ambiguous melanocytic tumors. Our RREB1 probe was used to identify 6p25 amplifications in the samples. Compared to a gene expression test called myPath, FISH agreed better with histopathologic interpretations, had greater sensitivity, and correlated better with molecular diagnostics.
