3′UTR-Mediated Gene Silencing of the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) Gene
Translocations involving the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene generate in-frame fusions of MLL with more than 50 different partner genes (PGs). Common to all MLL translocations is the exchange not only of coding regions, but also of MLL and PG 3'-untranslated regions (3'UTRs). As a result, the MLL-PG fusion is normally highly expressed and considered the main driver of leukemia development, wh...

متن کاملWDR5 interacts with mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) protein via the histone H3-binding pocket.
WDR5 is a component of the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) complex, which methylates lysine 4 of histone H3, and was identified as a methylated Lys-4 histone H3-binding protein. Here, we present a crystal structure of WDR5 bound to an MLL peptide. Surprisingly, we find that WDR5 utilizes the same pocket shown to bind histone H3 for this MLL interaction. Furthermore, the WDR5-MLL interaction is dis...
متن کاملAcute mixed-lineage leukemia t(4;11)(q21;q23) generates an MLL-AF4 fusion product.
A chromosomal translocation, t(4;11)-(q21;q23), is associated with an aggressive mixed-lineage leukemia. A yeast artificial chromosome was used to clone the chromosomal breakpoint of this translocation in the RS4;11 cell line. The breakpoint sequences revealed an inverted repeat bordered by a consensus site for topoisomerase II binding and cleavage as well as chi-like elements. The der(11) chro...
متن کاملPreferential induction of MLL(Mixed Lineage Leukemia) rearrangements in human lymphocyte cultures treated with etoposide
Topoisomerase II inhibitors are effective chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of cancer, in spite of being associated with the development of secondary leukemia. Our purpose was to determine the effects of etoposide on different genomic regions, aiming at discovering whether there are preferential sites which can be targeted by this drug in peripheral lymphocytes from healthy individuals. ...
