Myb-induced chromatin remodeling at a dual enhancer/promoter element involves non-coding rna transcription and is disrupted by oncogenic mutations of v-myb.

Abstract excerpt

The oncogene v-myb of avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV) encodes a transcription factor (v-Myb) that transforms myelomonocytic cells by deregulating the expression of specific target genes. v-myb has acquired its oncogenic potential by truncation as well as by a number of point mutations of its cellular progenitor c-myb. As a result of these changes, the target gene spectrum v-Myb differs from that of c-Myb. We...
