In mice that developed AL, we observed biphasic disease, with initial MDS (dysplasia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia; Supplementary Fig. 2h, i) followed by the later onset of leukocytosis, anemia, and increased mCherry+ and c-Kit+ cells in PB (Supplementary Fig. 2j–m). The gene discussed is KIT; the disease is Decreased total leukocyte count.
