Molecular assay reagents intended for use in identifying exchanges (i.e., translocations) between chromosome 12 band q13 and chromosome 22 band q12, usually involving genes ATF1 and EWSR1, respectively. This translocation is present in some cases of malignant melanoma and soft-tissue clear-cell sarcoma. Its detection may be used as a tumor marker.
