Hyperthermia Selectively Destabilizes Oncogenic Fusion Proteins
Abstract The PML/RARα fusion protein is the oncogenic driver in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Although most APL cases are cured by PML/RARα-targeting therapy, relapse and resistance can occur due to drug-resistant mutations.

Specific binding of leukemia oncogene fusion protein peptides to HLA class I molecules. [PDF]
Many human leukemias are characterized by chromosomal translocations yielding hybrid RNAs capable of encoding fusion chimeric proteins. The unique amino acid sequences found in these oncogenic fusion proteins represent true tumor-specific antigens that are potentially immunogenic.

Analysis of CD74 Occurrence in Oncogenic Fusion Proteins
CD74 is a type II cell surface receptor found to be highly expressed in several hematological and solid cancers, due to its ability to activate pathways associated with tumor cell survival and proliferation. Over the past 16 years, CD74 is emerging as a commonly detected fusion partner in multiple oncogenic fusion proteins.

The fusion partner specifies the oncogenic potential of NUP98 fusion proteins [PDF]
NUP98 is among the most promiscuously translocated genes in hematological diseases. Among the 28 known fusion partners, there are two categories: homeobox genes and non-homeobox genes. The homeobox fusion partners are well-studied in animal models, resulting in HoxA cluster overexpression and hematological disease.

Oncogenic All1 fusion proteins target Drosha-mediated microRNA processing [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding small RNA of ≈22 bases, which suppress expression of target genes through translational block or degradation of a target's transcript. Recent studies uncovered specific miRNA expression profiles in human malignancies.

One oncogene, several vulnerabilities: EWS/FLI targeted therapies for Ewing sarcoma
EWS/FLI is the defining mutation of Ewing sarcoma. This oncogene drives malignant transformation and progression and occurs in a genetic background characterized by few other recurrent cooperating mutations. In addition, the tumor is absolutely dependent

Mutation Profile of Well-Differentiated Thyroid Cancer in Asians [PDF]
Recent advances in molecular diagnostics have led to significant insights into the genetic basis of thyroid tumorigenesis. Among the mutations commonly seen in thyroid cancers, the vast majority are associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase ...

Foretinib is a potent inhibitor of oncogenic ROS1 fusion proteins [PDF]
Significance ROS1 fusion kinases are critical oncogenes in several malignancies, suggesting that ROS1 inhibitors are likely to be effective molecularly targeted therapies in these patients. Although phase I/II clinical trials using the ALK/ROS1 inhibitor crizotinib to treat ROS1 fusion-harboring non–small-cell lung cancer ...

The clathrin-binding domain of CALM-AF10 alters the phenotype of myeloid neoplasms in mice. [PDF]
The PICALM (CALM) gene, whose product is involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, has been identified in two recurring chromosomal translocations, involving either MLL or MLLT10 (AF10). We developed a mouse model of CALM-AF10(+) leukemia to examine the
