Failure of Embryonic Hematopoiesis andLethal Hemorrhages in Mouse Embryos Heterozygousfor a Knocked-In Leukemia Gene CBFB–MYH11
1 Nov 1996
Abstract excerpt
The fusion oncogene CBFB-MYH11 is generated by a chromosome 16 inversion in human acute myeloid leukemia subtype M4Eo. Mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells heterozygous for this oncogene were generated by inserting part of the human MYH11 cDNA into the mouse Cbfb gene through homologous recombination (knock-in). Chimeric mice were leukemia free, but the ES cells with the knocked-in Cbfb-MYH11 gene did not contribute...
