Abstract excerpt
Inactivation of p15INK4b, an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases, through DNA methylation is one of the most common epigenetic abnormalities in myeloid leukemia. Although this suggests a key role for this protein in myeloid disease suppression, experimental evidence to support this has not been reported. To address whether this event is critical for premalignant myeloid disorders and leukemia development, mice...
