Myeloproliferative disorders (MPDs) are stem cell-derived clonal diseases arising as a consequence of acquired aberrations in c-ABL, JAK2, and PDGFR, that generate oncogenic fusion tyrosine kinases (FTKs) including BCR/ABL, TEL/ABL, TEL/JAK2, and TEL/PDGFβR. Here we show that FTKs stimulate the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) both in hematopoietic cell lines and in CD34+ leukemic stem/progenitor cells from patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Single-strand annealing (SSA) represents a relatively rare, but very unfaithful DSB repair mechanism causing chromosomal aberrations. Using a specific reporter cassette integrated into genomic DNA, we found that BCR/ABL and other FTKs stimulated SSA activity. Imatinib-mediated inhibition of BCR/ABL abrogated this effect implicating a kinase-dependent mechanism. Y253F, E255K, T315I, and H396P mutants of BCR/ABL that confer imatinib resistance also stimulated SSA. Increased expression of either non-mutated or mutated BCR/ABL kinase, as is typical of blast phase cells and very primitive chronic phase CML cells, was associated with higher SSA activity. BCR/ABL-mediated stimulation of SSA was accompanied by enhanced nuclear co-localization of RAD52 and ERCC1, which play a key role in the repair. Taken together, these findings suggest a role of FTKs in causing disease progression in MPDs by inducing chromosomal instability through the production of DSBs and stimulation of SSA repair.
