Dysregulation of PAX5 causes uncommitted B cell development and tumorigenesis in mice
2021-01-31
Abstract excerpt
PAX5 is the master transcription factor controlling B cell identity. In humans, mutations in PAX5 account for 30% of B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) cases. Investigating the causal effects of PAX5 mutations has however been difficult due to the premature lethality of Pax5 −/− mice. Here we describe a novel mouse strain with a premature STOP mutation in Pax5 (Y351*) that produces a truncated protein...
