Vedclass · Answer

(A) Reciprocal translocation between chromosome $8$ and chromosome $14$ is a hallmark genetic abnormality associated with Burkitt's lymphoma.In this translocation,the $MYC$ proto-oncogene located on chromosome $8$ is moved to the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus on chromosome $14$.This results in the overexpression of the $MYC$ protein,which drives uncontrolled cell proliferation,leading to the development of this specific type of $B$-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
