The DEK/CCP6 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human DEK gene located on chromosome band 6p22.3, along with the number of chromosome 6 copies per cell.
Abnormalities in DEK – also known as D6S231E – have been found in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and many other hematological malignancies.
