Description
In this project, we studied a mouse model of human Down Syndrome (DS) megakaryocytic leukemia involving mutations in the GATA1 transcription factor (called GATA1s mutation). The model was generated through retroviral insertional mutagenesis in Gata1s mutant fetal liver progenitors. In this study, we analyzed the dependency of these leukemic cells on the Gata1s mutant protein.
