Critical individual roles of the BCR and FGFR1 kinase domains in BCR‐FGFR1‐driven stem cell leukemia/lymphoma syndrome
16 Sept 2019
Abstract excerpt
Constitutive activation of FGFR1, as a result of diverse chromosome translocations, is the hallmark of stem cell leukemia/lymphoma syndrome. The BCR-FGFR1 variant is unique in that the BCR component contributes a serine-threonine kinase (STK) to the N-terminal end of the chimeric FGFR1 kinase. We have deleted the STK domain and mutated the critical Y177 residue and demonstrate that the transforming activity of...
