'''Structure of the Bcr-Abl Oncoprotein Oligomerization domain'''<br />
'''Structure of the Bcr-Abl Oncoprotein Oligomerization domain'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
The Bcr-Abl oncoprotein is responsible for a wide range of human, leukemias, including most cases of Philadelphia chromosome-positive, chronic myelogenous leukemia. Oligomerization of Bcr-Abl is essential for, oncogenicity. We determined the crystal structure of the N-terminal, oligomerization domain of Bcr-Abl (residues 1-72 or Bcr1-72) and found a, novel mode of oligomer formation. Two N-shaped monomers dimerize by, swapping N-terminal helices and by forming an antiparallel coiled coil, between C-terminal helices. Two dimers then stack onto each other to form, a tetramer. The Bcr1-72 structure provides a basis for the design of, inhibitors of Bcr-Abl transforming activity by disrupting Bcr-Abl, oligomerization.
