Bcr-Abl1

The protein transcribed by the BCR-ABL1 gene that signals for a continuous division of Ph+ cells. It displays high protein tyrosine kinase activity (this activity is due to the Abl1 half of the protein). The unregulated expression of Bcr-Abl1 activates other proteins that are involved in cell cycling and cell division.
