    		 Keynote Rowley Prize 2016:

    Evolution in our leukemia research: From identification of BCR/ABL fusion to carbohydrate-mediated protection by the bone marrow environment
    Professor Nora Heisterkamp

    Children's Center for Cancer and Blood Diseases, Children's Hospital in Los Angeles (USA)

    • Localization of human ABL on chromosome 9
    • ABL is located on the Ph chromosome
    • Cloning of part of human c-ABL
    • Sequencing of pTyr site of c-ABL
    • Breakpoint in the 5' region of c-ABL in CML DNA
    • Use of chimeric 22/9 fragment to clone part of chromosome 9
    • Ph breakpoints are clustered in a breakpoint cluster region 
    • BCR or 'PHL' is part of a gene
    • A chimeric BCR-ABL mRNA is made
    • Research 1987 and after
