Mutation in Abl kinase with altered drug binding kinetics indicates a novel mechanism of imatinib resistance
2021-06-28
Abstract excerpt
Protein kinase inhibitors are potent anti-cancer therapeutics (1). For example, the Bcr-Abl kinase inhibitor imatinib decreases mortality for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) by 80% (2, 3), but 22-41% of patients acquire resistance to imatinib (4). About 70% of relapsed patients harbor mutations in the Bcr-Abl kinase domain (5), in which more than a hundred different mutations have been identified (6–8). Some mutati...
