A CHAF1B-Dependent Molecular Switch in Hematopoiesis and Leukemia Pathogenesis.

Cancer cell | 2018

CHAF1B is the p60 subunit of the chromatin assembly factor (CAF1) complex, which is responsible for assembly of histones H3.1/H4 heterodimers at the replication fork during S phase. Here we report that CHAF1B is required for normal hematopoiesis while its overexpression promotes leukemia. CHAF1B has a pro-leukemia effect by binding chromatin at discrete sites and interfering with occupancy of transcription factors that promote myeloid differentiation, such as CEBPA. Reducing Chaf1b activity by either heterozygous deletion or overexpression of a CAF1 dominant negative allele is sufficient to suppress leukemogenesis in vivo without impairing normal hematopoiesis.

Addgene (tool)

RRID:SCR_002037

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
