Influence of BCR/ABL fusion proteins on the course of Ph leukemias.
The hallmark of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and a subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome as a result of the t(9;22) translocation. This gene rearrangement results in the production of a novel oncoprotein, BCR/ABL, a constitutively active tyrosine kinase.

Background The t(9;22) translocation leads to the formation of the chimeric breakpoint cluster region/c-abl oncogene 1 (BCR/ABL) fusion gene on der22, the Philadelphia chromosome. The p185BCR/ABL or the p210BCR/ABL fusion proteins are encoded as a result

Detection of derivative 9 deletion by BCR-ABL fluorescence in-situ hybridization signal pattern to evaluate treatment response in CML patients [PDF]
Background: To evaluate prognostic effect of submicroscopic deletions involving breakage and fusion points of the derivative chromosome 9 and 22 in chronic myeloid leukemia in untreated patients and their follow up samples to correlate with disease ...

Flow Cytometric Detection of BCR-ABL Fusion Proteins in Leukemia Patients Via An Immunobead Assay [PDF]
Abstract The BCR-ABL fusion gene results from the translocation t(9;22). It is the hallmark of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and is present in a poor-risk subgroup of precursor B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), which represents 25–30% of adult ALL and 3–5% of childhood ALL.

Tyrosine kinase chromosomal translocations mediate distinct and overlapping gene regulation events
Background Leukemia is a heterogeneous disease commonly associated with recurrent chromosomal translocations that involve tyrosine kinases including BCR-ABL, TEL-PDGFRB and TEL-JAK2. Most studies on the activated tyrosine kinases have focused on proximal

The chimeric oncoprotein BCR-Abl exhibits deregulated protein tyrosine kinase activity and is responsible for the pathogenesis of certain human leukemias, such as chronic myelogenous leukemia. The activities of cellular Abl (c-Abl) and BCR-Abl are stringently regulated and the cellular mechanisms involved in their inactivation are poorly understood ...

Prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia relies heavily on the cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities. AML1-ETO fusion protein resulting from t(8;21), a recurring cytogenetic abnormality, is known to be associated with favorable prognosis.

Imatinib (Gleevec) is the effective therapy for BCR-ABL positive CML patients. Point mutations have been detected in ATP-binding domain of ABL gene which disturbs the binding of Gleevec to this target leading to resistance.
