Nevertheless, Disease profile revealed that five genes, DAP3, B4GALT3, UCK2, RGS16 and TMEM183A were significantly Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) up-regulated in high hyperdiploid ALL carrying Cytogenetics dup(1q) compared to those without dup(1q).

Although DAP3 (death associated protein 3) dup(1q) is rarely seen as a sole abnormality, it is Location mostly found in association with well-known 1q22 primary cytogenetic abnormalities. In high hyperdiploid ALL, duplication of 1q is the most Note frequent structural aberration found in Alternative symbol MRPS29 (mitochondrial approximately 15% cases (Figure 1).

Recent studies suggests that DAP3 is without 1q gains indicating that aberrant methylation strongly associated with the Fas receptor related was not involved in the formation of dup(1q), as DISC.

Studies have demonstrated low DAP3 The presence of dup(1q) has no effect on the expression in various tumors such as B-cell outcome of ALL patients with high hyperdiploidy lymphoma, lung cancer, head and neck cancer , (Paulsson et al, 2013). It is unclear yet whether the breast cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal presence of balanced or unbalanced carcinoma, possibly due to hypermethylation of the t(1;19)(q23;p13.3) in ALLs has an effect on the gene's promoter (Wazir U et al, 2015).
