The Relationship between Mutation in HOXB1 Gene and Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Background: HOX genes are an exceedingly preserved family of homeodomain-involving transcription factors. They are related to a number of malignancies, comprising acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of HOXB1 7bp deletion mutation on HOXB1gene expression in 36 individuals. Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was done on a large Iranian fami...
متن کاملA new and recurrent activating length mutation in exon 20 of the FLT3 gene in acute myeloid leukemia.
Activating length mutations in the juxtamembrane (JM) domain of the FLT3 gene (FLT3-LM) and mutations in the catalytic domain (FLT3D835/836) of this receptor tyrosine kinase represent the most frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we describe a 6-bp insertion in the activation loop of FLT3 between codons 840 and 841 of FLT3 (FLT3-840GS) in 2 unrelated patients with...

متن کاملIdentification of a novel activating mutation (Y842C) within the activation loop of FLT3 in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) receptor mutations as internal tandem duplication (ITD) or within the kinase domain are detected in up to 35% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). N-benzoyl staurosporine (PKC412), a highly effective inhibitor of mutated FLT3 receptors, has significant antileukemic efficacy in patients with FLT3-mutated AML. Mutation screening of FLT3 exon 20 in AML p...
متن کاملEffects of T208E activating mutation on MARK2 protein structure and dynamics: Modeling and simulation
Microtubule Affinity-Regulating Kinase 2 (MARK2) protein has a substantial role in regulation of vital cellular processes like induction of polarity, regulation of cell junctions, cytoskeleton structure and cell differentiation. The abnormal function of this protein has been associated with a number of pathological conditions like Alzheimer disease, autism, several carcinomas and development of...
