Abstract excerpt
Almost 100% of APL patients carry chimeric transcripts encoding truncated RARalpha fused to homo-oligomerization domains from partner proteins. To gain further insights into the cellular transformation mechanisms mediated by RARalpha fusion proteins, thorough structure/function analyses have been performed and identified the POZ homo-oligomerization domain as the minimal transformation domain that is necessary...
