Article Title: Rubbing out leukemia stem cells by erasing the eraser
Abstract: In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Shen et al. (2020) and Wang et al. (2020) independently identify the essential function of m6A demethylase ALKBH5 in maintaining myeloid leukemia stem cells. These studies expand the regulators of the epitranscriptome that are required for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) development. © 2020 Elsevier Inc. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Shen et al.
