The legacy of the Philadelphia chromosome
Series edited by Gary Koretzky
 | In 1960, Peter C. Nowell described an unusual small chromosome present in
leukocytes from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia that was
thereafter designated the Philadelphia chromosome. This Review series
includes contributions from individuals who performed critical experiments
in the wake of the description of the Philadelphia chromosome, reflecting
the nearly 50 years of work inspired by Nowell’s initial finding. |
