Abstract
The oncogene protein DEK is an abundant and ubiquitous nuclear protein with implications in acute myelogenous leukemia, as translocation which results in the formation of a DEK-CAN fusion protein. In a previous study, we have identified that DEK negatively regulated peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx 6) transcription synergistically with the p65 subunit of NF-κB. In this study, we further investigated DEK-mediated transcriptional regulation of Prdx 6 during leukemia cell differentiation. Using Chromatin Immunoprecipitation analysis and Prdx 6 reporter assays, we found that DEK operated as a negative regulator of Prdx 6 transcription during leukemia cell differentiation. DEK was highly expressed and recruited to Prdx 6 promoter along with p65 and repressed transcription after leukemia cell differentiation. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
