    Summary
    This gene encodes an oncoprotein which is thought to play a role in the phenotypic determination of hemopoetic cells. Translocations between this gene and nucleophosmin have been associated with myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

      Title: CRL4(DCAF8) and USP11 oppositely regulate the stability of myeloid leukemia factors (MLFs).
    3. the abnormal gene regulation imposed by NPM-MLF1 can be characterized by the enhanced recruitment of NuRD to gene regulatory regions. Thus, different mechanisms would orchestrate the dysregulation of NPM function in NPMc+- versus NPM1-MLF1-associated leukemia.
      Title: NPM and NPM-MLF1 interact with chromatin remodeling complexes and influence their recruitment to specific genes.
    4. Mutation in HTT causes Huntington's disease (HD); aggregates of mutated HTT cause apoptosis in neurons of HD patients. Data suggest that both MLF1 and MLF2 preferentially interact with mutated N-terminal HTT; MLF1/MLF2 reduce number of neurons (Neuro2A cell line) containing mutant HTT aggregates and subsequent apoptosis. (HTT = Huntingtin protein; MLF = myeloid leukemia factor)

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
