Abstract excerpt
Somatic mutations of calreticulin (CALR) have been identified as a main disease driver of myeloproliferative neoplasms, suggesting that development of drugs targeting mutant CALR is of great significance. Site-directed mutagenesis in the N-glycan binding domain (GBD) abolishes the ability of mutant CALR to oncogenically activate the thrombopoietin receptor (MPL). We therefore hypothesized that a small molecule...
