Congrats to @minimolecule! Well done on this cool body of work 🎉
Focal deletions of noncoding regions in cancer genomes can have unexpected consequences. Out now in @BloodJournal, we’ve discovered an intriguing mechanism of oncogene activation whereby focal deletion of a ‘promoter tether’ leads to aberrant expression of IRX3 in T-ALL. Thread👇

Congratulations @charles_bell92 et al, so great to see this out! Check it out⬇️
Cofactors are a crucial part of the gene activation process. Yet, we still don't have a comprehensive understanding of how and why they are used by different genes. Proud to present our attempt to address this key question, now published https://t.co/wdDmHDMDCI
