METHOD FOR DETECTING DNAJB1-PRKACA GENE

摘要

[Problem] The problem is to elucidate a polynucleotide that is a novel causative gene of cancer and thereby provide a method for detecting this polynucleotide or a polypeptide encoded thereby, as well as a primer set and detection kit for this purpose. [Means of solution] A fusion gene of part of the DNAJB1 gene and part of the PRKACA gene, or a fusion protein encoded thereby, is detected in this detection method. The primer set includes a sense primer designed from a portion that encodes DNAJB1 and an antisense primer designed from a portion that encodes PRKACA.
