MLL-fusion-driven leukemia requires SETD2 to safeguard genomic integrity

In leukemia, diverse fusion proteins involving the MLL gene can drive oncogenic activity. Here, the authors describe a dependency of MLL-leukemia cells on the methyltransferase SETD2 to maintain genomic integrity during leukemia initiation and maintenance.
