Abstract

The object of the invention is to elucidate a new causative gene of cancer, polynucleotide, and thereby provide a method for detecting the polynucleotide or a polypeptide that is encoded by the polynucleotide, as well as a primer set or a detection kit for such detection. The detection method detects a fusion gene of a part of an OCLN gene and a part of an ARHGAP26 gene, or a fusion protein encoded by such gene. The primer set includes a sense primer designed from a section encoding OCLN and an antisense primer designed from a section encoding ARHGAP26.
