The MYC/CCP8 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human MYC gene located on chromosome band 8q24.21, along with the number of chromosome 8 copies per cell.
Rearrangements and abnormal expression of the MYC gene – also known as EV MRTL, MYCC, c-Myc or bHLHe39 – have been observed in Burkitt's Lymphoma and other hematological malignancies, myeloma, as well as breast, cervical, colon, ovarian and other tumor types.
