Human ASXL1-Mutant Hematopoiesis Is Driven by a Truncated Protein Associated with Aberrant Deubiquitination of H2AK119.

Abstract

Mutant ASXL1 is a common driver of CH and myeloid malignancy. Using primary human HSPCs, we determine that truncated ASXL1 leads to redistribution of H2AK119Ub and may affect therapeutic vulnerability to PRC1 inhibition.
