The t(8:2 1) is one of the most frequent chromosomal translocations associated with acute leukemia. The translocation fuses the DNA binding domain of AML1 to nearly all of the ETO co-repressor. ETO associates with the mSin3 and N-CoR co-repressors as well as histone deacetylases 1, 2, and 3. Although this is one of the most frequent chromosomal translocations in acute leukemia, accounting for 10-15% of the cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the direct targets for transcriptional regulation that stimulate leukernogenesis are unknown. We found that AML1-ETO repressed the promoter of p14(ARF) tumor suppressor in transient transfection assays and reduced endogenous levels of p14(ARF) expression in multiple cell types. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrated that AML1-ETO bound to the p14(APF) promoter. In acute myeloid leukemia samples containing the t(8;21), levels of p14(ARF) mRNA were markedly lower when compared to other acute myeloid leukemias. Therefore, p14(ARF) is a direct transcriptional target of AML1-ETO. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
