Specifically, the differentially expressed gene RAS oncogene family like 6 (RABL6, also known as RBEL1 and C9orf86) (Hagen et al, 2014), CD93 (Iwasaki et al, 2015), and Zinc Finger Protein 709 (ZNF709) (Yan et al, 2016) have been implicated in cancers and leukemia. Here, ZNF709 is linked to leukemia.
