Multiplex reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR with sequencing analysis and BCR-ABL1 gene mutation study for imatinib resistance. Multiplex RT-PCR and sequencing analysis revealed the e1a3 BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript in patient 1 (A, B) and patient 2 (C, D). BCR-ABL1 gene mutation study was performed for imatinib resistance in patient 2 (E, F). The mutation was detected 12 months after treatment. The 736th nucleotide (empty arrow) of the ABL1 gene was changed from G to A [NM_005157.4: c.763G>A (p.Glu255Lys)].
