  The proton structure function F2 is studied in the low x regime using BFKL
evolution. The next to leading logarithmic (NLL) analysis requires the
inclusion of running coupling effects which lead to off-diagonal terms in the
evolution kernel. An all-orders resummation is used to improve the collinear
behavior of the NLL BFKL result. We emphasize the theoretical uncertainties
that appear throughout the analysis and give a comparison to the combined HERA
data.
