Abstract excerpt
The Mixed-Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene encodes a Trithorax-related chromatin-modifying protooncogene that positively regulates Hox genes. In addition to their well-characterized roles in axial patterning, Trithorax and Polycomb family proteins perform less-understood functions in vertebrate hematopoiesis. To define the role of MLL in the development of the hematopoietic system, we examined the potential of cells...
