| RUNX1 | 7651838 | Alternative splicing and genomic structure of the AML1 gene involved in acute myeloid leukemia. | We previously isolated the AML1 gene, which is rearranged by the t(8;21) translocation in acute myeloid leukemia. The AML1 gene is highly homologous to the Drosophila segmentation gene runt and the mouse transcription factor PEBP2 alpha subunit gene. This region of homology, called the Runt domain, is responsible for DNA-binding and protein--protein interaction. In this study, we isolated and characterized various forms of AML1 cDNAs which reflect a complex pattern of mRNA species. Analysis of these cDNAs has led to the identification of two distinct AML1 proteins, designated AML1b (453 amino acids) and AML1c (480 amino acids), which differ markedly from the previously reported AML1a (250 amino acids) with regard to their C-terminal regions, although all three contain the Runt domain. The large C-terminal region common to AML1b and AML1c is suggested to be a transcriptional activation domain. AML1c differs from AML1b by only 32 amino acids in the N-terminal. Characterization of the genomic structure revealed that the AML1 gene consists of nine exons and spans > 150 kb of genomic DNA. Northern blot analysis demonstrated the presence of six major transcripts, encoding AML1b or AML1c, which can all be explained by the existence of two promoters, alternative splicing and differential usage of three polyadenylation sites. A minor transcript encoding AML1a which results from alternative splicing of a separate exon can be detected only by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction amplification. The distinct proteins encoded by the AML1 gene may have different functions, which could contribute to regulating cell growth and/or differentiation through transcriptional regulation of a specific subset of target genes. | D015470 | Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute |

The AML1 gene is highly homologous to the Drosophila segmentation gene runt and the mouse transcription factor PEBP2 alpha subunit gene. This region of homology, called the Runt domain, is responsible for DNA-binding and protein--protein interaction. In this study, we isolated and characterized various forms of AML1 cDNAs which reflect a complex pattern of mRNA species. Analysis of these cDNAs has led to the identification of two distinct AML1 proteins, designated AML1b (453 amino acids) and AML1c (480 amino acids), which differ markedly from the previously reported AML1a (250 amino acids) with regard to their C-terminal regions, although all three contain the Runt domain. The large C-terminal region common to AML1b and AML1c is suggested to be a transcriptional activation domain. AML1c differs from AML1b by only 32 amino acids in the N-terminal. Characterization of the genomic structure revealed that the AML1 gene consists of nine exons and spans > 150 kb of genomic DNA. Northern blot analysis demonstrated the presence of six major transcripts, encoding AML1b or AML1c, which can all be explained by the existence of two promoters, alternative splicing and differential usage of three polyadenylation sites. A minor transcript encoding AML1a which results from alternative splicing of a separate exon can be detected only by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction amplification. The distinct proteins encoded by the AML1 gene may have different functions, which could contribute to regulating cell growth and/or differentiation through transcriptional regulation of a specific subset of target genes. | D014178 | Translocation, Genetic |
| RUNX1 | 15723339 | MYND-less splice variants of AML1-MTG8 (RUNX1-CBFA2T1) are expressed in leukemia with t(8;21). | The AML1-MTG8 fusion gene is generated by chromosome translocation t(8;21), which is frequently observed in acute myeloid leukemia. The fusion gene produces a chimeric transcription factor that suppresses the expression of AML1-target genes via the MTG8 part of the chimeric protein, which is thought to be the primary cause of leukemia. The C-terminal region of MTG8 contains the MYND domain, represented by highly conserved zinc-finger-like protein motifs, and is known to interact with corepressor proteins. We found that, instead of the MYND domain, an alternative last exon of MTG8 encoding 27 amino acids in-frame is expressed naturally in human adult testis and in several leukemia cell lines. This type of alternative splicing also occurred in the AML1-MTG8 fusion gene at high levels in leukemia cell lines with t(8;21), as well as in blast cells of leukemia patients with t(8;21). The variant proteins of both MTG8 and AML1-MTG8 reduced transcriptional repressor activity in a mammalian two-hybrid assay. However, mixed expression of these variants with wild-type MTG8 recovered their repressor activity, suggesting that these variants also act as repressors in vivo where wild-type MTG8 and other family members exist in abundance. On the other hand, the MYND-less variants acquired a higher affinity for binding to MTG8 and formed a multimer, whereas the wild-type protein forms a dimer. Thus, expression of the MYND-less variants by the dysregulation of splicing machinery, which stimulates the oligomerization of fusion proteins in leukemia cells, may enhance malignant conversion of hematopoietic cells. | D007938 | Leukemia |

| RUNX1 | 17072347 | Identification of a novel splice variant of AML1b in ovarian cancer patients conferring loss of wild-type tumor suppressive functions. | Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) 1 is often disrupted by chromosomal translocations generating oncogenic fusions in human leukemias. However, its role in epithelial cancers has not been extensively investigated. Herein, we show a marked accumulation of AML1 transcripts including a high frequency of a novel alternatively spliced AML1b transcript lacking exon 6 (AML1b(Del179-242)) in ovarian cancer patients. The increases in RNA transcripts for total wild-type AML1 and AML1b(Del179-242) are associated with poor patient outcomes. We have shown that although both wild-type AML1b and AML1b(Del179-242) are localized to nuclear speckles, AML1b(Del179-242) was observed to have dramatically reduced transactivation potential with the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 promoters and behaved as a weak dominant negative of wild-type AML1b. Wild-type AML1b was found to inhibit the growth of immortalized ovarian epithelial cells (T29) decreasing colony-forming ability. Moreover, we have identified a novel function of AML1b where it inhibits ovarian cell migration. In contrast, AML1b(Del179-242) has lost the ability to inhibit both ovarian cell proliferation and migration indicating that the functional effects observed with wild-type AML1b are dependent on amino acids 179-242. Collectively, these studies suggest that deregulated alternative splicing of AML1b transcripts may potentially contribute to the pathophysiology of ovarian cancers. | D002291 | Carcinoma, Papillary |

| RUNX1 | 19151769 | Overexpression of an isoform of AML1 in acute leukemia and its potential role in leukemogenesis. | AML1/RUNX1 is a critical transcription factor in hematopoietic cell differentiation and proliferation. From the AML1 gene, at least three isoforms, AML1a, AML1b and AML1c, are produced through alternative splicing. AML1a interferes with the function of AML1b/1c, which are often called AML1. In this study, we found a higher expression level of AML1a in acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-M2 patients in comparison to the controls. Additionally, AML1a represses transcription of promoter of macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor mediated by AML1b, indicating that AML1a antagonized the effect of AML1b. To investigate the role of AML1a in hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis in vivo, murine bone marrow mononuclear cells were transduced with AML1a and then transplanted into lethally irradiated mice, which developed lymphoblastic leukemia after transplantation. Taken together, these results indicate that overexpression of AML1a may be an important contributing factor to leukemogenesis. | D000208 | Acute Disease |
