Summary: Evidence Type: Predictive | Mutation: G101V | Summary: The BCL-2 mutation G101V is associated with reduced affinity for venetoclax, indicating that it confers drug resistance in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Evidence Type: Functional | Mutation: G101V | Summary: Biochemical analyses reveal that the G101V mutation alters the molecular interaction of BCL-2 with venetoclax, providing insight into the structural basis for drug resistance. Evidence Type: Oncogenic | Mutation: G101V | Summary: The G101V mutation in BCL-2 contributes to tumor progression by conferring resistance to therapy, which is a characteristic of oncogenic mutations.
