TheTCL1oncogene on human chromosome 14q32.1 is involved in the development of T cell leukemia in humans. Its expression in these leukemias is activated by chromosomal translocations and inversions at 14q32.1. Here we report the isolation and characterization of a new member of theTCL1gene family,TCL1b,located ≈16 kb centromeric ofTCL1. The 1.2-kbTCL1bcDNA encodes a 14-kDa protein of 128 aa and shows 60% similarity to Tcl1. Expression profiles ofTCL1andTCL1bgenes are very similar: both genes are expressed at very low levels in normal bone marrow and peripheral lymphocytes but are activated in T cell leukemia by rearrangements of the 14q32.1 region. Thus, translocations and inversions at 14q32.1 in T cell malignancies involve two oncogenes.
