t(4;11) leukemias display addiction to MLL-AF4 but not to AF4-MLL [PDF]
The most frequent MLL-gene rearrangement found in leukemia is a reciprocal translocation with AF4 on chromosome 4 resulting in the formation of the MLL-AF4 and the AF4-MLL fusion genes. The oncogenic role of MLL-AF4 is documented but the significance of the reciprocal product - AF4-MLL in leukemia is less clear.

BACKGROUND Acute lymphoblastic leukemia with MLL/AF4 rearrangement remains a major hurdle to improving outcomes. Gene network and circRNAs have been found to participate in tumorigenesis, while their roles in leukemia still need to be explored.

Methylation-mediated repression of microRNA-143 enhances MLL–AF4 oncogene expression [PDF]
Fusion proteins containing the amino terminus of mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) are common in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) due to translocations. The MLL-AF4 fusion protein is generated by the translocation t(4;11)(q21;q23), and t(4;11)-positive ALL patients (MLL-AF4 ALL), have a notoriously poorer prognosis compared with patients with other MLL ...

H3K79 Methylation Profiles Define Murine and Human MLL-AF4 Leukemias [PDF]
We created a mouse model wherein conditional expression of an Mll-AF4 fusion oncogene induces B precursor acute lymphoblastic (ALL) or acute myeloid leukemias (AML). Gene expression profile analysis of the ALL cells demonstrated significant overlap with human MLL-rearranged ALL.
