Mtg16-dependent repression of E protein activity is required for early lymphopoiesis

Pankaj Acharya, Shilpa Sampathi, David K. Flaherty, Brittany K. Matlock, Christopher S. Williams, Scott W. Hiebert, Kristy R. Stengel

The paper shows that MTG16-dependent repression of E protein activity is essential for lymphopoiesis but not myelopoiesis or stem cell functions, using mouse models and functional assays.
