Abstract

The t(15;17) translocation generates a PML-RARα fusion protein causative for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Li et al. now identify the pseudokinase stress protein TRIB3 as an important factor in APL disease progression and therapy resistance. Targeting the interaction of TRIB3 and PML-RARα using peptide technology provides a novel therapeutic approach.
