LPP Antibody / Lipoma preferred partner

LPP (Lim Domain-Containing Preferred Translocation Partner in Lipoma), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LPP gene. Petit et al. (1996) commented that the LPP-encoded protein should be classified as a novel member of the group 3 proteins of the LIM protein gene family. By partial cDNA cloning, Petit et al. (1996) established features of the genetic organization of LPP. The gene was found to span a genomic region of over 400 kb. By FISH and Southern blot analyses, Daheron et al. (2001) identified a rearrangement in the mixed lineage leukemia gene due to a novel t(3;11)(q28;q23) translocation in a patient who developed acute myeloid leukemia of the M5 type 3 years after treatment for a follicular lymphoma.
