The bcr/abl fusion in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CIVIL) creates a chimeric tyrosine kinase with dramatically different properties than intact c-abl. In P210 bcr/abl, the bcr portion includes a coiled-coil oligomerization domain (amino acids 1-63) and a grb2-binding site at tyrosine 177 (Tyr177) that are critical for fibroblast transformation, but give variable results in other cell lines. To investigate the role of the coiled-coil domain and Tyr177 in promoting CIVIL, 4 P210 bcr/abi-derived mutants containing different bcr domains fused to abl were constructed. All 4 mutants, A(1-63) bcr/abl, (1-63) bcr/abi, Tyr177Phe bcr/abi, and (1-210) bcr/abl exhibited elevated tyrosine kinase activity and conferred factor-independent growth in cell lines. In contrast, differences in the transforming potential of the 4 mutants occurred in our mouse model, in which all mice receiving P210 bcr/abi-expressing bone marrow cells exclusively develop a myeloproliferative disease (MPD) resembling human CIVIL. Of the 4 mutants assayed, only 1-210 bcr/abi, containing both the coiled-coil domain and Tyr177, induced MPD. Unlike full-length 13210, this mutant also caused a simultaneous B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). The other 3 mutants, Delta(1-63) bcr/abi, Tyr177Phe bcr/abi, and Delta(1-63) bcr/abi, failed to induce an MPD but instead caused T-cell ALL. These results show that both the bcr coiled-coil domain and Tyr177 are required for MPD induction by bcr/abl and provide the basis for investigating downstream signaling pathways that lead to CML.
