Epigenetic Regulation of Muscle Stem and Progenitor Cells
… trithorax H3K4 histone methyltransferase (HMT) MLL1 have been established for early embryogenesis, and for hematopoietic and neural identity. Here, using a conditional Mll1 knockout (KO), we find that in vivo, MLL1 is necessary for efficient muscle regeneration, and for maintenance and …

Thermodynamic and Structural Characterization of the Interaction between Wd40 Repeat Containing Protein 5 (Wdr5) and Human Set1 Family Methyltransferases
… amplifications of the mixed lineage leukemia-1 (MLL1) gene are associated with aggressive myeloid and lymphocytic leukemias in humans. MLL1 is a member of the SET1 family of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferases, which are required for transcription of genes involved in hematopoiesis and …

Characterising the MLL complex: epigenetic regulation of Hoxa genes
The Mixed-Lineage Leukaemia (MLL1) protein is a key developmental factor that acts to regulate genes via its histone methyl-transferase activity. This study aimed to examine how MLL1 and its associated complex contribute to gene regulation in a functionally relevant cell background. To assess …

From Mechanisms of Leukaemogenic Dysregulation to New Candidate Therapeutics
… capabilities. Rearrangements involving the *MLL1* gene (*Kmt2a*) produce powerful oncogenic proteins occurring predominantly in paediatric and infant acute myeloid and lymphoid leukaemias. Despite having more than 80 fusion partners, MLL-AF9, MLL-AF4 and MLL-ENL make up more than 60% of cases …

Interplay Between P53 and Epigenetic Pathways in Cancer
… mutants bind to and upregulate genes including MLL1, MLL2, and MOZ, leading to genome-wide changes of histone modifications. These studies also demonstrate a critical functional role of the MLL pathway in mediating mutant p53 GOF cancer phenotypes, and that genetic or pharmacological …
