## Abstract A myeloid leukemia cell line designated Kasumiβ6 was established from the bone marrow cells of an individual with acute myeloid leukemia, subtype M2. Both the original leukemic cells and the Kasumiβ6 cell line harbor a hemizygous point mutation in the gene encoding the CCAAT/enhancer bi
