| umls-concept:C0004891 | skos:definition | MSH: Translation products of a fusion gene derived from CHROMOSOMAL TRANSLOCATION of C-ABL GENES to the genetic locus of the breakpoint cluster region gene on chromosome 22. Several different variants of the bcr-abl fusion proteins occur depending upon the precise location of the chromosomal breakpoint. These variants can be associated with distinct subtypes of leukemias such as PRECURSOR CELL LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA-LYMPHOMA; LEUKEMIA, MYELOGENOUS, CHRONIC, BCR-ABL POSITIVE; and NEUTROPHILIC LEUKEMIA, CHRONIC.,NCI: A fusion protein encoded by the BCR/ABL1 fusion gene. This protein is comprised of the N-terminus of the breakpoint cluster region protein fused to almost the entire tyrosine-protein kinase ABL1 protein. | lld:umls |
