Seventy-one ALL samples were assessed for the presence of mutations in the juxtamembrane and activation loop regions of FLT3. The cytogenetic abnormalities (when available) are noted. The types of FLT3 mutations either in the juxtamembrane region or in the activation loop are noted.

CCR indicates complete continuous remission. — indicates no motion.

*

The 18-bp insertion (AACTTAAGGAACCCACCA) is inserted 3′ to nucleotide 1731.
