Scientists use radioactive decay to date fossils and artifacts through a process called carbon dating it measures the amount of carbon still left in a dead object. The less carbon that exists, the longer that animal or plant as been dead.

You have been asked to design a drug to inhibit BCR-ABL in an effort to treat CML. Using your knowledge of enzyme-catalyzed reac
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

by designing a drug with steric effects on BCR-ABL1

Explanation:

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)  is a type of cancer that affects the bone marrow and blood cells. CML is characterized by the formation of the Philadelphia chromosome, a product of a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22. As a consequence of this translocation, an oncoprotein tyrosine kinase called BCR-ABL1 is formed. This protein (BCR-ABL1) is responsible for 95% of all CMLs. In this case, it is possible to inhibit BCR-ABL1 (and thus inhibit CML cell proliferation) by using a kinase inhibitor. Kinase inhibitors are drugs that inhibit kinase function by preferentially binding to the inactive conformation of the target enzyme. These proteins are used to treat cancer by blocking a functional site on the kinase, thereby inhibiting its function. Moreover, it is known that steric effects alter the mode and rate by which a drug interacts with a given target. In this case, a small molecule with steric effects on BCR-ABL1, i.e., capable of altering the shape (conformation) and reactivity of BCR-ABL1, might also be used to selectively inhibit BCR-ABL1.
