Featured Abstract
PRMT1-mediated FLT3 arginine methylation promotes maintenance of FLT3-ITD+ Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
The presence of FLT3-ITD mutations in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is associated with poor clinical outcome. FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), although effective in kinase ablation, do not eliminate primitive FLT3-ITD+ leukemia cells, which are potential sources of relapse. Thus understanding mechanisms underlying FLT3-ITD+ AML cell persistence is essential to devise future AML therapies. Here, we show that expression of PRMT1, the primary type I arginine methyltransferase, significantly increases in AML cells relative to normal hematopoietic cells.
