Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the nucleophosmin (NPM1) gene represent the most common genetic alteration in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and result in mis-localisation of the mutated protein from a predominantly nucleolar localisation to a predominantly cytoplasmic distribution. Here, we use high resolution imaging to demonstrate that NPM1 is crucial for maintaining normal nucleoli architecture and specifically the integrity of...
