Transposable elements(TEs) have been shown to have important gene regulatory functions and their alteration could lead to disease phenotypes. Acute myeloid leukemia(AML) develops as a consequence of a series of genetic changes in hematopoietic precursor cells, including mutations in epigenetic factors. Here, we set out to study the gene regulatory role of TEs in AML. We first explored the epigenetic landscape of TEs in AML patients using ATAC-seq data. We show that a large number of TEs in general, and more specifically mammalian-wide interspersed repeats(MIRs), are more enriched in AML cells than in normal blood cells. We obtained a similar finding when analyzing histone modification data in AML patients. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis showed that genes near MIRs in open chromatin regions are involved in leukemogenesis. To functionally validate their regulatory role, we selected 19 MIR regions in AML cells, and tested them for enhancer activity in an AML cell line(Kasumi-1) and a chronic myeloid leukemia(CML) cell line(K562); the results revealed several MIRs to be functional enhancers. Taken together, our results suggest that TEs are potentially involved in myeloid leukemogenesis and highlight these sequences as potential candidates harboring AML-associated variation. 相似文献

By using genome in situ hybridization (GISH) on root somatic chromosomes of allotetraploid derived from the cross Gossypium arboreum × G. bickii with genomic DNA (gDNA) of G. bickii as a probe, two sets of chromosomes, consisting of 26 chromosomes each, were easily distinguished from each other by their distinctive hybridization signals. GISH analysis directly proved that the hybrid G.arboreum×G. bickii is an allotetraploid amphiploid. The karyotype formula of the species was 2n = 4x = 52 = 46m (4sat) + 6sm (4sat). We identified four pairs of satellites with two pairs in each sub-genome. FISH analysis using 45S rDNA as a probe showed that the cross G. arboreum×G. bickii contained 14 NORs. At least five pairs of chromosomes in the G sub-genome showed double hybridization (red and blue) in their long arms, which indicates that chromatin introgression from the A sub-genome had occurred. 相似文献
