TERT and sarcoma: Therefore, we used MLS as an ideal model to study telomere lenght in sarcoma as this sarcoma subtype is not only characterized by a typical initial oncogenic driver translocation, i.e., the t(12;16)(q13; p11) [26,48], but also by a substantially higher incidence of TERT promoter mutations compared to other sarcomas subtypes [13,37,38,39].
