Paired ChIP-Seq studies of Kasumi-1 t(8;21) AML cells

Nearly 10-15% of all acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases are caused by a recurring chromosomal translocation between 8 and 21, t(8;21). The t(8;21) translocation generates the AML1-ETO leukemia fusion protein. AML1-ETO promotes leukemogenesis by transcriptionally dysregulating important cell-fate genes. Here, to better understand how AML1-ETO deregulates transcription, we performed paired ChIP-Seq analyses of sequence-specific transcription factors, coactivators, corepressors, HDACs, RNA Pol II and acetyl-histone marks in both control and AML1-ETO-depleted Kasumi-1 t(8;21) AML cells. Overall design: Chromatin immunoprecipitation using specific antibodies followed by deep sequencing in Kasumi-1 t(8;21) AML cells.
