abstract：:Cellular transformation by the BCR/ABL oncogene depends on the ABL-encoded tyrosine kinase activity. To block BCR/ABL function, we created a unique tyrosine phosphatase by fusing the catalytic domain of SHP1 (SHP1c) to the ABL binding domain (ABD) of RIN1, an established binding partner and substrate for c-ABL and BCR...
