Abstract excerpt
The oncoprotein Bcr-Abl, the causative agent of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), requires homo-oligomerization via a coiled-coil domain to function [Bartram, C. R.; et al. Nature 1983, 306 (5940), 277-280; and Zhao, X.; et al. Nat. Struct. Biol. 2002, 9(2), 117-120]. While tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have shown great efficacy as treatment options for CML, their use may cause an acquisition of mutations in...
