USC Stem Cell Seminar: Peggy Goodell, Baylor College of Medicine

Speaker: Peggy Goodell, Baylor College of Medicine

Talk Title: DNMT3A in hematopoietic stem cells, cancer and aging

Series: Eli and Edythe Broad Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at USC Distinguished Speakers Series

Abstract: DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3A) has recently emerged as an important tumor suppressor in hematologic malignancies, and its ablation in mouse hematopoietic stem cells inhibits differentiation. We will describe the use of DNMT3A knockout mice to study its role in myeloid and lymphoid malignancy development and its function in maintaining global DNA methylation. The role of DNMT3A mutations in intercellular competition in the context of aging will also be discussed.

Host: Senta Georgia
