ABL1, also known as Abelson kinase, is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a role in many key processes linked to cell growth and survival. Activity of c-Abl protein is negatively regulated by its SH3 domain, and deletion of the SH3 domain turns ABL1 into an oncogene. The t(9;22) translocation results in the head-to-tail fusion of the BCR and ABL1 genes present in many cases of chronic myelogeneous leukemia.

Catalitic subunit of c-Abl protein is composed by two different regions:

Dentro del core de la akt, tenemos dos regiones: • ATP-binding pocket: is mainly mediated by alfa-helix • Protein-binding pocket: lamina-B domain
