Somatic gain-of-function mutations in interleukin 7 receptor α chain (IL7Rα) have been described in pediatric T and B acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T/B-ALLs). Most of these mutations are in-frame insertions in the extracellular juxtamembrane-transmembrane region. By using a similar mutant, a heterozygous in-frame transmembrane insertional mutation (INS), we validated leukemogenic potential in murine hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, using a syngeneic transplantation model. We found that ecto ...[more]
