Probe sets for all genes significantly higher expressed in cluster #4 cases without CEBPA mutations compared to cluster #4 cases with CEBPA mutations (Table S2) were loaded into Ingenuity Pathways Analysis software. Each probe set was mapped to its corresponding gene object in the Ingenuity Pathways Knowledge Base. These genes, called focus genes, were overlaid onto a global molecular network developed from information contained in the Ingenuity Pathways Knowledge Base. Networks of these focus genes were then algorithmically generated based on their connectivity. The figure displayed represents the network with the highest score (see also Table S5), and is highly associated with T-cell development. The network in this figure is a graphical representation of the molecular relationships between genes/gene products. Genes or gene products are represented as nodes, and the biological relationship between two nodes is represented as an edge (line). The intensity of the node red color indicates the degree of upregulation. Nodes are displayed using various shapes that represent the functional class of the gene product. Genes associated with biological functions and/or diseases in the Ingenuity Pathways Knowledge Base were considered for functional analysis of the network. Top biological functions of genes in this network as indicated by Ingenuity are cellular development, hematological development and function, and immune and lymphatic system development and function. See Table S5 for more details and additional functional networks. In some cases gene names indicated by Ingenuity differ from names used in Affymetrix annotation of probe sets, e.g. CD247 is identical to CD3Z.

Human U937 leukemia cells were transduced with empty virus (MigR1) or ICN1 according to methods as described in Materials and Methods. Cells were sorted for GFP expression and mRNA was isolated. HES1 (left panel) and TRIB2 (right panel) expression was assessed by RQ-PCR. Data are representative of the mean +/− standard deviation of 3 independent experiments performed in duplicate. PCR primers for human TRIB2 were previously described in reference 15 of the main text, and primers for human HES1 were: 5′-ATGGAGAAAAATTCCTCGTCCC-3′ (forward) and 5′-TTCAGAGCATCCAAAATCAGTGT-3′ (reverse).
