The ''ABL1'' gene is a proto-oncogene that encodes a protein tyrosine kinase involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell division, adhesion, differentiation, and response to stress. The activity of this protein is negatively regulated by its SH3 domain, whereby deletion of the region encoding this domain results in an oncogene<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Jean Y.

The t(9,22)(q34;q11) leads to the formation of a Philadelphia chromosome and generates an active chimeric BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase. The fusion gene is created by juxtaposing the ''ABL1'' gene on chromosome 9 (region q34) to a part of ''BCR'' (breakpoint cluster region) gene on chromosome 22 (region q11). This is a reciprocal translocation, creating an elongated chromosome 9 (der 9), and a truncated chromosome 22 (the Philadelphia chromosome, 22q-), the oncogenic BCR-ABL1 being found on the shorter derivative 22 chromosome<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Kurzrock|first=Razelle|last2=Kantarjian|first2=Hagop M.|last3=Druker|first3=Brian J.|last4=Talpaz|first4=Moshe|date=2003|title=Philadelphia chromosome-positive leukemias: from basic mechanisms to molecular therapeutics|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12755554|journal=Annals of Internal Medicine|volume=138|issue=10|pages=819–830|doi=10.7326/0003-4819-138-10-200305200-00010|issn=1539-3704|pmid=12755554}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Melo|first=J.

This gene encodes for a BCR-ABL1 fusion protein, a tyrosine kinase. Tyrosine kinase activities are typically regulated in an auto-inhibitory manner, but the BCR-ABL1 fusion gene codes for a protein that is continuously activated, causing unregulated cell division. This is a result of the replacement of the myristoylated cap region which causes a conformational change rendering the kinase domain inactive, with a truncated portion of the BCR protein<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Nagar|first=Bhushan|last2=Hantschel|first2=Oliver|last3=Young|first3=Matthew A.|last4=Scheffzek|first4=Klaus|last5=Veach|first5=Darren|last6=Bornmann|first6=William|last7=Clarkson|first7=Bayard|last8=Superti-Furga|first8=Giulio|last9=Kuriyan|first9=John|date=2003|title=Structural basis for the autoinhibition of c-Abl tyrosine kinase|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12654251|journal=Cell|volume=112|issue=6|pages=859–871|doi=10.1016/s0092-8674(03)00194-6|issn=0092-8674|pmid=12654251}}</ref>. The enzyme is responsible for the uncontrolled growth of leukemic cells which survive better than normal blood cells. As a result of BCR/ABL1 variable splicing (fusion RNA and hybrid proteins), two transcripts p190 and p210 are found for BCR-ABL1 positive AML.
The ''BCR'' gene product has serine/threonine kinase activity and is a GTPase-activating protein for p21rac<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Maru|first=Y.|last2=Witte|first2=O.

The ''ABL1'' gene is a proto-oncogene that encodes a protein tyrosine kinase involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell division, adhesion, differentiation, and response to stress. The activity of this protein is negatively regulated by its SH3 domain, whereby deletion of the region encoding this domain results in an oncogene<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Jean Y.

The t(9,22)(q34;q11) leads to the formation of a Philadelphia chromosome and generates an active chimeric BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase. The fusion gene is created by juxtaposing the ''ABL1'' gene on chromosome 9 (region q34) to a part of ''BCR'' (breakpoint cluster region) gene on chromosome 22 (region q11). This is a reciprocal translocation, creating an elongated chromosome 9 (der 9), and a truncated chromosome 22 (the Philadelphia chromosome, 22q-), the oncogenic BCR-ABL1 being found on the shorter derivative 22 chromosome<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Kurzrock|first=Razelle|last2=Kantarjian|first2=Hagop M.|last3=Druker|first3=Brian J.|last4=Talpaz|first4=Moshe|date=2003|title=Philadelphia chromosome-positive leukemias: from basic mechanisms to molecular therapeutics|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12755554|journal=Annals of Internal Medicine|volume=138|issue=10|pages=819–830|doi=10.7326/0003-4819-138-10-200305200-00010|issn=1539-3704|pmid=12755554}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Melo|first=J.
