DOI: 10.1002/cbf.3736
Abstract: The chromosomal translocation t(4;11)(q21;q23), a hallmark of an aggressive form of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), encodes mixed‐lineage leukemia (MLL)‐AF4 oncogenic chimera that triggers aberrant transcription of genes involved in lymphocyte differentiation, including HOXA9 and MEIS1.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2016.12.054
Abstract: Summary Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of defined cancers is crucial for effective personalized therapies. Translocations of the mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL) gene produce fusion proteins such as MLL-AF4 that disrupt epigenetic pathways and cause poor-prognosis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1158/1535-7163.mct-17-1123
Abstract: MLL-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) occurring in infants is a rare but very aggressive leukemia, typically associated with a dismal prognosis. Despite the development of specific therapeutic protocols, infant patients with MLL-rearranged ALL still suffer… read more here.

DOI: 10.1158/1538-7445.am2023-4937
Abstract: The t(4;11)(q21;q23) chromosomal translocation that creates the MLL-AF4 fusion protein, confers a poor prognosis in infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This translocation also sensitizes cells to proteasome inhibitors bortezomib and carfilzomib, which are approved by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1182/blood-2017-04-777185
Abstract: Chromosome rearrangements involving the mixed-lineage leukemia gene (MLL) create MLL-fusion proteins, which could drive both acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The lineage decision of MLL-fusion leukemia is influenced by the fusion… read more here.

Abstract: B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, with long-term overall survival rates of ~85%. However, B-ALL harboring rearrangements of the MLL gene (also known as KMT2A), referred to as MLLr B-ALL,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3324/haematol.2018.202044
Abstract: The t(4;11)(q21;q23) translocation is associated with high-risk infant pro-B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and arises prenatally during embryonic/fetal hematopoiesis. The developmental/pathogenic contribution of the t(4;11)-resulting MLL-AF4 (MA4) and AF4-MLL (A4M) fusions remains unclear; MA4 is always… read more here.
