Abstract
The transcriptional coactivator MN1 has been identified as a gene overexpressed in certain types of human acute myeloid leukemia. Upregulation is invariantly associated with inv(16) AML but is also found in other AML subtypes. Overexpression of this gene is also associated with a worse prognosis and a shorter survival in AML patients with a normal karyotype. In this short review, I will discuss the role of MN1 in myeloid leukemia.
