| Research Abstract |
The genes encoding the AML1/CBFβ transcription factor complex are the most frequent targets of chromosome translocations found in human leukemia. We previously purified AML1 complexes, and found that the complex contains histone acetyltransferases such as p300 and MOZ, promyelocytic leukemia isoform I (PML I), and a protein kinase (HIPK2). The genes encoding AML1 and some of the AML1-interacting proteins are the targets of leukemia-associated chromosome translocations, suggesting that common pathways may be shared by distinct myeloid malignancies and underscores the importance of this complex in hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis. HIPK2 formed a complex with AML1 and p300, and phosphorylated both AML1 and p300 to stimulate both transcription activation and HAT activities. Phosphorylation of p300 was triggered by phosphorylated AML1 as well as by PU.1, c-MYB, c-JUN, and c-FOS, and was inhibited by dominant-negative HIPK2. Phosphorylation of p300 and AML1 was impaired in Hipk1/2 double-def

icient mouse embryos. Double-deficient mice exhibited defects in primitive/definitive hematopoiesis, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis and neural tube closure. These phenotypes are in part similar to those observed in p300- and CBP-deficient mice. HIPK2 also phosphorylates another co-activator, MOZ, in an AML1-dependent manner. These results suggest a novel mechanism by which transcription factors could regulate local histone acetylation and transcription of their target genes. To investigate the roles of MOZ in normal hematopoiesis, we generated MOZ-null mice. MOZ^<-/-> mice died around E15. In MOZ^<-/-> E14.5 embryos, hematopoietic stem cells, lineage-committed progenitors and B lineage cells were severely reduced. On the other hand, arrest of erythroid maturation and elevated myeloid lineage populations were observed. MOZ-deficient fetal liver cells could not reconstitute hematopoiesis of recipients after transplantation. Analysis using microarray and flow cytometry revealed that expression of thrombopoietin receptor (c-Mpl), HoxA9 and c-Kit was down-regulated. These results show that MOZ is required for maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells and that it plays a role in differentiation of erythroid and myeloid cells. Less
