ZNF198-FGFR1 Transforms Ba/F3 Cells to Growth Factor Independence and Results in High Level Tyrosine Phosphorylation of STATS 1 and 5

The ZNF198-FGFR1 fusion gene arises as a result of the t(8;13)(p11;g12) in the 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome. To determine the transforming properties of this chimeric protein we transfected ZNF198-FGFR1 into the interleukin (IL)-3 dependent cell line Ba/F3. Growth factor independent subclones w...
