Association of caspase-2 with the promyelocytic leukemia protein nuclear bodies [PDF]
Apoptotic cell death is executed by a family of cysteine proteases known as caspases. Synthesized as inactive precursors, caspases become activated sequentially in cascades. Activation of apical or initiator caspases in these cascades occurs in macromolecular complexes located in various compartments. One such complex is the plasma membrane-bound death-

RING tetramerization is required for nuclear body biogenesis and PML sumoylation
Promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) is a scaffolding protein that organizes PML nuclear bodies. Here the authors present the tetrameric crystal structure of the PML RING domain and show that RING tetramerization is functionally important for nuclear ...

Inhibition of the NAD-dependent protein deacetylase SIRT2 induces granulocytic differentiation in human leukemia cells. [PDF]
Sirtuins, NAD-dependent protein deacetylases, play important roles in cellular functions such as metabolism and differentiation. Whether sirtuins function in tumorigenesis is still controversial, but sirtuins are aberrantly expressed in tumors, which may

Promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML), a major component of PML nuclear bodies (also known as nuclear domain 10), is involved in diverse cellular processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, gene regulation, and DNA damage response. PML also acts as a

Posttranslational regulation of Myc by promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger protein [PDF]
AbstractThe promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF) protein, a transcriptional repressor, induces cellular resistance to oncogenic transformation by diverse oncoproteins. Two point mutants of PLZF that have lost the antioncogenic activity of the wild‐type protein are oncogenic in chicken embryo fibroblasts; this activity is correlated with ...

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia, which is highly aggressive, yet the most curable. It is a medical emergency that requires a very high index of suspicion, as delay in the treatment could lead to fatality.

Dysregulation of Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) Protein Expression in Preeclamptic Placentae [PDF]
Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein is a nucleoprotein that can regulate a variety of cellular stress responses. The aim of this study was to determine qualitative and quantitative changes in PML expression in preeclamptic placentae. Immunoblot, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and immunohistochemistry techniques

Targeting the MLL complex in acute leukemia [PDF]
Chromosomal rearrangements leading mostly to fusion oncoproteins of the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene occur in about 10% of all patients with acute leukemia and are often associated with poor clinical outcome, emphasizing the need for new treatment ...
