Abstract: Objective: The importance of feedback mechanisms involved in suppression of growth factor-induced signals is gaining importance both to understand molecular mechanisms of disease and also as potential therapeutic targets. Our previous studies show that erythroid differentiation can be blocked by constitutive expression of the pp2a inhibiting subunit, alpha4. The aim of this study was to identify variants and transcript isoforms of PPP2CA and the inhibiting subunits alpha4 and SET, using (1) cell lines derived from haematopoietic disease, and (2) Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patient material.
