<b>Purpose:</b> The FLT3 cell-surface receptor tyrosine kinase (CD135) is expressed in a majority of both acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL) and myeloid leukemia (AML).
<i>IKZF1</i> gene defects are associated with inferior treatment outcome in both childhood and adult B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia and occur in more than 70% of <i>BCR-ABL1</i>-positive and <i>BCR-ABL1</i>-like cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
11q23 translocations (t(11q23)) are recurring cytogenetic abnormalities in both acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia, involving the same gene, ALL1 (or MLL).

5' CpG island hypermethylation is associated with transcriptional silencing of the p21(CIP1/WAF1/SDI1) gene and confers poor prognosis in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
