Q1 a patient who inherited two defective copies of a gene

Reference no: EM13353095

Q1. A patient who inherited two defective copies of a gene essential by white blood cells, suffered from a severe immune deficiency disease. The patient recovered from a disease following gene therapy, in that he received an expressed copy of the 'missing' gene (the desired outcome). Unfortunately, he afterwards developed leukaemia, a cancer involving the white blood cells (an unexpected outcome). The introduced gene was not responsible as it did not encode a carcinogen or a regulator of cell replication.

In a few sentences describe how the transformation might or DNA integration process has caused this outcome?
