Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) - History
• 1845- The first documented clinical description.
• 1960- The discovery of Philadelphia chromosome in CML cells
• 1970- The isolation of Abelson murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV).
• 1973- The discovery that Philadelphia chromosome
results from a reciprocal translocation of chromosomes 9 and 22.
• 1980-1983 The cloning of v-Abl oncogene in A-MuLV, cloning the c-Abl
proto-oncogene, locating c-Abl to chromosome 9, and demonstrating that
Abl encodes a protein tyrosine kinase.
• 1986- The cloning of BCR-ABL cDNA from CML cells.
• 1987-present: Understanding how BCR-ABL causes CML.
• 1996- The demonstration that imatinib (Gleevec) inhibits BCR-ABL
tyrosine kinase and CML growth in vitro.
• 2001- FDA approval of Gleevec for CML therapy.
• 2002-present : Gleevec resistance, CML stem cells

A coiled-coil oligomerization domain of Bcr is essential for the
transforming function of Bcr-Abl oncoproteins.
McWhirter JR, Galasso DL, Wang JY.
Department of Biology, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla 92093-0116.
In Philadelphia chromosome-positive human leukemias, the c-abl proto-oncogene on chromosome 9
becomes fused to the bcr gene on chromosome 22, and chimeric Bcr-Abl proteins are produced.
The fused Bcr sequences activate the tyrosine kinase, actin-binding, and transforming functions of Abl.
Activation of the Abl transforming function has been shown to require two distinct domains of Bcr:
domain 1 (Bcr amino acids 1 to 63) and domain 2 (Bcr amino acids 176 to 242).
The amino acid sequence of domain 1 indicates that it may be a coiled-coil oligomerization domain.
We show here that domain 1 of Bcr forms a homotetramer.
Tetramerization of Bcr-Abl through Bcr domain 1 correlates with activation of the tyrosine kinase
and F-actin-binding functions of Abl.
Disruption of the coiled coil by insertional mutagenesis inactivates the oligomerization function
as well as the ability of Bcr-Abl to transform Rat-1 fibroblasts
or to abrogate interleukin-3 dependence in lymphoid cells.
These results strongly suggest that Bcr-Abl oligomers are the active entities in transformation.

The current model of hematopoiesis
CML Stem Cells
* CML is a disease of the hematopoietic stem cells (HSC)
• During Chronic Phase (CP), Ph1-chromosome can be found in
mature blood cells of various myeloid and lymphoid lineage.
• Gleevec is effective during CP, but ineffective if disease has
progressed to accelerated phase (AP) or Blast Crisis (BC).
• CML stem cell identified in myeloid blast crisis patient samples.

Questions1. How can the mathematical prediction
depicted in Fig. 4A (sc panel) of the Michor et al
paper be tested in the clinic?
2. What may account for the innate resistance
of CML stem cells to imatinib?
3. What may account for the activation of
cell death by nuclear BCR-ABL?
