Abstract excerpt
In human B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), RAG1-induced genomic alterations are important for disease progression. However, given that biallelic loss of the RAG1 locus is observed in a subset of cases, RAG1's role in the development of B-ALL remains unclear. We chose a p19Arf(-/-)Rag1(-/-) mouse model to confirm the previously published results concerning the contribution of CDKN2A (p19ARF /INK4a) and RAG1...
