Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the Bcr-Abl kinase domain are a frequent cause of imatinib resistance in patients with advanced CML or Ph+ ALL. The impact of these mutations on the overall oncogenic potential of Bcr-Abl and on the clinical course of the disease in the absence of imatinib is presently unclear. In this study, we analyzed the effects of the Bcr-Abl P-loop mutation Y253H and the highly imatinib resistant T315I mutation...
