Svensk definition
Gener i IAP-enheter (en grupp retrovirusliknande genetiska element) som kodar för virusliknande partiklar (IAP), vilka regelmässigt återfinns i tidiga embryon hos gnagare. Intracisternal avser här "cisternae" (hålrummen) i det endoplasmatiska nätverket. Under vissa förhållanden, som vid hypometylering av DNA, transkriberas generna. Transkripten påträffas i en rad olika tumörer, inkl. plasmacytom, neuroblastom, rabdomyosarkom, teratokarcinom och tjocktarmskarcinom.
Engelsk definition
Genes of IAP elements (a family of retrovirus-like genetic elements) which code for virus-like particles (IAPs) found regularly in rodent early embryos. ("Intracisternal" refers to the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum.) Under certain circumstances, such as DNA hypomethylation they are transcribed. Their transcripts are found in a variety of neoplasms, including plasmacytomas, neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcomas, teratocarcinomas, and colon carcinomas.
