Precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma
Classification and external resources
ICD-O:	M9836/3
MeSH	D015452

Precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma is a form of lymphoid leukemia.

It consists of the following subtypes:^[1]

• t(9;22)-BCR/ ABL
• t(v;11q23)-MLL rearrangement
• t(1;19)-E2A/PBX1
• t(12;21)-ETV/ CBFα

[edit] Molecular Mechanisms

One interesting model of precursor B ALL shows aberrant function of a single gene, namely Pax5, as capable to change phenotype of B cells toward precursor cells^[2][3].
