Abstract excerpt
Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) is an important mediator of cytokine receptor signaling and plays key roles in the hematopoietic and immune response. The acquired JAK2 R683S (G) mutations are presumed to be a biomarker for B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). However, how these mutations leading to the B-ALL is still unclear. The crystal structure of JAK2 JH2 domain suggests that the residue R683 locating in the...
