Genome-wide mapping of Runx1-bound sites in early B-cell progenitors
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The t(12;21) chromosomal translocation, targeting the gene encoding the RUNX1 transcription factor, is observed in 25% of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and is an initiating event in the disease. To elucidate the mechanism by which RUNX1 disruption initiates leukemogenesis, we investigated its normal role in murine B-cell development. Gene expression analysis and genome-wide Runx1-occupancy studies support the hypothesis that Runx1 reinforces the transcription factor network in B-cell progenitors governing early B-cell survival and development . ChIP-seq experiments were performed in the proB-cell line BMiFLT3(15-3), stably transduced with the transcription factor Runx1, to identify Runx1-bound sites in early B-cell progenitors.
