A processed table (series matrix) and supplementary files from NCBI; the raw sequencing reads from ENA. Which of these hold counts depends on the study, so check the file list.
Paper
Characterizing the impact of MLL fusion variants and fusion partners on leukemia plasticity using a human CRISPR-engineered MLL-rearranged leukemia modelNeoplasia (New York, N.Y.) · 2026
Summary (written by the submitters)
Acute leukemias involving MLL (KMT2A) rearrangements are aggressive hematologic malignancies associated with poor prognosis. MLL fusions typically involve MLL exons 8-14, with AF4 (AFF1) and AF9 (MLLT3) being frequent partners. To investigate how fusion partners and breakpoint locations influence the disease, we developed a CRISPR/Cas9 model by introducing MLL-AF4 (t(4;11)) or MLL-AF9 (t(9;11)) fusions with MLL breakpoints in intron 9 or 11 into cord blood CD34+ cells.
Read the full summary ↓
The MLL-rearranged cells showed increased proliferation and stemness, as well as an altered immunophenotype involving the upregulation of AML markers. MLL(intron 9)-AF9 cells engrafted robustly in NSG mice and showed high lineage plasticity, switching from a myeloid to a B-lymphoid identity in vivo. Transcriptomic profiling confirmed the lineage switch and the transcriptomic signature revealed progressive stages of B-cell lineage commitment in individual mice. Our model enables mechanistic studies across MLL fusion variants and may guide the development of targeted therapies for MLL-rearranged leukemias.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE311933_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1371955 and SRA study SRP650210. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
