Understanding PML-RARA, Quantitative

The PML-RARA, Quantitative test is a molecular test that looks for and measures the PML-RARA fusion gene or its RNA copies in blood or bone marrow. In APL, parts of chromosome 15 and chromosome 17 break and swap places, creating this fusion gene. The abnormal protein made by this gene prevents white blood cells from maturing properly, causing a buildup of immature cells called promyelocytes, which leads to leukemia.

Normally, the PML gene stops uncontrolled cell growth, and the RARA gene helps white blood cells de...
