However, this mutation facilitated engraftment of bone marrow cell overexpressing MN1. Analyses of global gene expression profiles of ASXL1-mutated versus wild-type human leukemia cells as well as heterozygote versus wild-type mouse marrow precursor cells, with or without MN1 overexpression, highlighted the association of in vivo Asxl1 mutation to the expression of hypoxia, multipotent progenitors, hematopoietic stem cells, KRAS, and MEK gene sets. The gene discussed is MAP2K7; the disease is leukemia.
