The AML genome(s): Mutations in four dimensions
NIH Director’s Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series For many years, Dr. Ley's laboratory has used mouse models of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) to establish key principles of AML pathogenesis. The lab established that the initiating event for Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia is the PML-RARA fusion gene created by the t(15;17) that is found in nearly all patients with this disease. The roles of cooperating mutations and the cellular milieu for APL pathogenesis have also been established. In collaboration with the Genome Institute at Washington University, the investigators of the Genomics of AML PPG (TJ Ley, PI) sequenced the f...
