There were two patients who had DNA abnormalities in both 9p and 12p, one with common acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) showed 9p LOH and the TEL/AML1 fusion gene on 12p and the other with common ALL and 12p RER had diminished expression of both the p27(KIP1) gene on 12p and the p16 gene on 9p.     ///    "Furthermore, expression of the TEL, TEL/AML1 and p27(KIP1) genes on 12p and the p16 gene on 9p were detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction.
