The enhancer RNA ARIEL activates the oncogenic transcriptional program in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia by Tan, Shi Hao, Leong, Wei Zhong, Ngoc, Phuong Cao Thi, Tan, Tze King, Bertulfo, Fatima Carla, Lim, Mei Chee, An, Omer, Li, Zhenhua, Yeoh, Allen Eng Juh, Tenen, Daniel G., Sanda, Takaomi, Fullwood, Melissa Jane

ARIEL recruits mediator proteins to the ARID5B enhancer, promotes enhancer-promoter interactions, and activates the expression of ARID5B, thereby positively regulating the TAL1-induced transcriptional program and the MYC oncogene. …”
