Abstract:Epigenetic control is crucial for lineage-specific gene expression that creates cellular identity during mammalian development and in adult organism. Histone 3 lysine 4 methylation (H3K4) is a universal epigenetic mark. Mixed lineage leukemia (MLL1) is the founding member of the mammalian family of H3K4 methyltransferases. It was originally discovered as the main gene mutated in early onset leukemias and then found to be required for hematopoietic stem cell development and maintenance. However, the roles of ML… Show more
