Target intelligence / Profile preview

ABL proto-oncogene 1 (ABL1)

Target
ABL1
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Tyrosine kinase, Non-receptor tyrosine kinase, Proto-oncogene
01

Overview

The ABL1 gene encodes a cytoplasmic and nuclear protein tyrosine kinase involved in numerous cellular processes, including cell division, cell differentiation, cell adhesion, and stress response. It is a proto-oncogene; mutations or chromosomal rearrangements, like the BCR-ABL fusion, can lead to cancerous transformation. The BCR–ABL fusion protein provides a molecular target for therapies such as imatinib used in CML treatment.
