Conclusion. The AML patients with MLL-AF6 positive were mostly young, the majority of FAB types were M4 and M5, and most of the patients often had fever as the first symptom, with increased white blood cells, accompanied by organ infiltration, and high EVI1 gene expression. The hematological remission rate of routine chemotherapy is not low, …

In order to gain a better insight into the molecular function of MLL, several years ago, we purified its closest yeast homolog, Set1 (Miller et al. 2001).Yeast Set1 was found to exist as part of an ∼1-MDa complex named COMPASS with six other proteins named for their apparent molecular weight by SDS-PAGE: Cps25, …
اقرأ أكثرversely, MLL is not essential for the homeostasis of more differentiated myeloid and lymphoid cells [24]. These observations indicate that MLL is required for the prolifera-tion of immature hematopoietic progenitors. MLL is a large protein (431 kDa) possessing histone methyltransferase (HMT) activity on histone H3 lysine 4 [31, 32].
اقرأ أكثرIntroduction. The KMT2A gene, better known as MLL (mixed lineage or myeloid/lymphoid leukemia) encodes a lysine (K)-specific histone methyltransferase 2A, which functions as an epigenetic regulator of transcription (Daniel and Nussenzweig, 2012; Takeda et al., 2013).The enzyme is primarily connected to hematopoietic and embryonic …
