ZMYND11-MBTD1 induces leukemogenesis through hijacking NuA4/TIP60 acetyltransferase complex and a PWWP-mediated chromatin association mechanism

The fusion gene ZMYND11-MBTD1 (ZM) is present in a subgroup of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Here, the authors show that ZM expression induces AML in a murine model though activating the NuA4/TIP60 histone acetyltransferase complex.
