Descriptor English: Gene Fusion
Descriptor Spanish: Fusión Génica
Descriptor fusión génica
Scope note: Es la RECOMBINACIÓN GENÉTICA de partes de dos o más GENES, que da como resultado un gen con regiones reguladoras diferentes o adicionales, o un nuevo producto génico quimérico. La FUSIÓN ONCÓGENA incluye un ONCOGÉN como al menos uno de los genes acompañantes en la fusión. Dichas fusiones génicas, observadas con frecuencia en las células neoplásicas, se transcriben a través de PROTEÍNAS ONCOGÉNICAS DE FUSIÓN. La FUSIÓN GÉNICA ARTIFICIAL se realiza in vitro mediante técnicas de ADN RECOMBINANTE.

Scope note: The GENETIC RECOMBINATION of the parts of two or more GENES resulting in a gene with different or additional regulatory regions, or a new chimeric gene product. ONCOGENE FUSION includes an ONCOGENE as at least one of the fusion partners and such gene fusions are often detected in neoplastic cells and are transcribed into ONCOGENE FUSION PROTEINS. ARTIFICIAL GENE FUSION is carried out in vitro by RECOMBINANT DNA technology.
