    T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a common hematological malignancy.
    Although combined chemotherapy has greatly changed the efficacy of T-ALL, 20% of children and 50% of adults still die from this disease
    .


    The identification of T-ALL driver genes and abnormal signaling pathways will promote the understanding of its pathological mechanism and provide an important


    In this study, 47 high-frequency driver gene mutations and 156 gene fusions were detected in 165 samples
    .


    Combining transcriptional profiles and gene fusion information, we divided T-ALL into four subtypes, LOM2/LYL1, HOXA, TLX, and TAL, and studied the mutational preferences of different molecular subtypes


    Wu Hong, Zhu Xiaofan, Huang Xiaojun and Zhang Leping are the co-corresponding authors of this paper
    .


    Dr.
    Zhu Haichuan (currently working at Wuhan University of Science and Technology), a doctoral student who has graduated from Wu Hong's laboratory, Dong Bingjie, a doctoral student, and Zhang Yingchi, associate researcher of the Hematology Hospital (Institute of Hematology), Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, are the co-first authors of this article
