Research Abstract |
Mutation of transcription factor causes T-cell lymphoma both in human and mouse. To reveal the molecular mechanism of lymphoma suppression by Ikaros, I determined the gene expression profile, and genome-wide distribution of Ikaros and various histone modifications. A number of Ikaros-target genes were found to have high level of H3K27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3), which abolish in Ikaros knockout cells. T-cell specific erasure of H3K27me3 by Eedknockout resulted in hyper-proliferation of T cells upon mitotic stimulation. Thus, it was strongly suggested that decrease of H3K27me3 at TCR-downstream genes is part of the cause of hyper-proliferation and lymphomagenesis in Ikaros mutant.
