Chromosomal rearrangements of the mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene with numerous partner genes are frequently found in acute myeloid and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. 1, 2 Although the pathomechanism of t (4; 11)-mediated leukemia is still being discussed, expression of the AF4 MLL fusion was found to enhance the repopulating potential of CD34þ cells and lead to the development of predominantly proB-acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a mouse model. 1, 2 The AF4 MLL protein contains cleavage sites for threonine aspartase-1 (Taspase1). 1–4 Upon processing by Taspase1, the AF4 MLL cleavage products form a protein complex resistant to SIAH-mediated degradation and activate oncogenic programs. 3, 5 Furthermore, Taspase1 is overexpressed in liquid and solid human cancers, suggesting thatTaspase1 is co-opted to promote and sustain tumorigenesis. 6 As genetic deletion of Taspase1 in the mouse produced no overt deficiencies, 3 inhibition of Taspase1 may offer novel anticancer strategies, including the treatment of leukemias. Human Taspase1 encodes a protease of 420 amino acids cleaving substrates in trans by recognizing a conserved peptide motif (Q3 [F, I, L, V] 2D1kG10 x20 D30 D40). 4 Unfortunately, Taspase1’s activity is not affected by common protease inhibitors, therefore currently precluding the assessment of its clinical and therapeutic
