MCL-1 Promoter Insertions and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is caused by an accumulation of malignant lymphocytes that fail to undergo programmed cell death. High expression of the Mcl-1 protein, a member of the Bcl-2 family of apoptosis regulators, is associated with pathogenesis of CLL. To investigate the mechanism of altered Mcl-1 expression in CLL, Moshynska et al. (p. 673) sequenced the MCL-1 gene from peripheral blood lymphocytes of 58 CLL patients and 18 control subjects and analyzed mRNA and protein expression in a subset of patients. Seventeen of the patients but
