MAF functions as a pioneer transcription factor that initiates and sustains myelomagenesis

Abstract excerpt

Deregulated expression of lineage-affiliated transcription factors (TFs) is a major mechanism of oncogenesis. However, how the deregulation of nonlineage affiliated TF affects chromatin to initiate oncogenic transcriptional programs is not well-known. To address this, we studied the chromatin effects imposed by oncogenic MAF as the cancer-initiating driver in the plasma cell cancer multiple myeloma. We found that...
