The trithorax protein partner menin acts in tandem with EZH2 to suppress C/EBPα and differentiation in MLL-AF9 leukemia.
Trithorax and polycomb group proteins antagonistically regulate the transcription of many genes, and cancer can result from the disruption of this regulation. Deregulation of trithorax function occurs through chromosomal translocations involving the trithorax gene MLL, leading to the expression of MLL fusion proteins and acute leukemia. It is poorly understood how MLL fusion proteins block diff...
متن کاملHoxa9 influences the phenotype but not the incidence of Mll-AF9 fusion gene leukemia.
Identification of the targets of mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) fusion genes will assist in understanding the biology of MLL fusion gene leukemias and in development of better therapies. Numerous studies have implicated HOXA9 as one of the possible targets of MLL fusion proteins. To determine if HOXA9 was required for leukemia development by MLL fusion genes, we compared the effects of the Mll-AF...
متن کاملThe stem cell factor SALL4 is an essential transcriptional regulator in mixed lineage leukemia-rearranged leukemogenesis
BACKGROUND The stem cell factor spalt-like transcription factor 4 (SALL4) plays important roles in normal hematopoiesis and also in leukemogenesis. We previously reported that SALL4 exerts its effect by recruiting important epigenetic factors such as DNA methyltransferases DNMT1 and lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1/KDM1A). Both of these proteins are critically involved in mixed lineage leuke...
