Inv(16)(p13.1q22) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a common chromosomal abnormality. It leads to the core-binding factor ß-subunit (CBFβ)/smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11 (MYH11) fusion gene.

CBFB-MYH11 Fusion Sequesters RUNX1 in Cytoplasm to Prevent DNMT3A Recruitment to Target Genes in AML
A growing number of human diseases have been found to be associated with aberrant DNA methylation, including cancer. Mutations targeting genes encoding DNA methyltransferase (DNMT), TET family of DNA demethylases, and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1, IDH2)

Genetic approaches to identify pathological limitations in aortic smooth muscle contraction. [PDF]
Aortic smooth muscle contains limiting amounts of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) for myosin regulatory light chain (RLC) phosphorylation and contraction that predisposes to thoracic aortic disease in humans containing heterozygous loss-of-function ...

BackgroundThe distribution of RUNX1-RUNXT1, PML-RARA, CBFB-MYH11, BCR-ABL1p210, and KMT2A-MLLT3 in the pediatric population with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in many countries of Latin America is largely unknown.

Of the many origins of pulmonary myofibroblasts, microvascular pericytes are a known source. Prior literature has established the ability of pericytes to transition into myofibroblasts, but provide limited insight into molecular cues that drive this ...

Generating endogenous Myh11-driven Cre mice for sex-independent gene deletion in smooth muscle cells
Specific and efficient smooth muscle cell–targeted (SMC-targeted) gene deletion is typically achieved by pairing SMMHC-CreERT2-Tg mice with mice carrying the loxP-flanked gene.

Genome-wide binding of transcription factors in inv(16) acute myeloid leukemia
The inv(16) translocation is associated with 5% of AML cases and gives rise to expression of the oncofusion protein CBFβ-MYH11. Although different molecular mechanisms for the oncogenic activity of this fusion protein have been proposed these were mostly

Detection of del(16q) using the CBFB-MYH11 translocation dual fusion probe
Del(16q) is an uncommon cytogenetic abnormality that can occur in different types of myeloid neoplasms. A small number of cases with del(16q) have been reported.
