GRB2 bound to BCR-ABL is active. 2 / 2

"However, direct binding of Grb2 to Bcr/Abl also facilitates its tyrosine phosphorylation, which we propose reflects activation of a physiological negative regulatory mechanism by this oncogenic tyrosine kinase.Direct binding of Grb2 to Bcr/Abl facilitates Grb2 phosphorylation."

"BCR-ABL-induced oncogenesis is mediated by direct interaction with the SH2 domain of the GRB-2 adaptor protein. Mutation of Y177 to phenylalanine (Y177F) abolishes GRB-2 binding and abrogates BCR-ABL-induced Ras activation"
