PREFERENTIAL NUCLEAR ACCUMULATION OF JAK2V617F IN CD34+ BUT NOT IN GRANULOCYTIC, MEGAKARYOCYTIC OR ERYTHROID CELLS OF PATIENTS WITH PHILADELPHIA-NEGATIVE MYELOPROLIFERATIVE NEOPLASIA. [PDF]
Recently, Dawson et al. identified a previously unrecognized nuclear role for JAK2 in the phosphorylation of the tyrosine 41 of the histone H3 with the exclusion of HP1a from chromatin and resulting in a disregulation of several JAK2-regulated genes such
