We recently identified a novel, intracellular
human protein serine/threonine kinase SPRK that upon overexpression
transforms cells and renders them competent to form tumors in
nude mice. We are studying the role of SPRK and of other novel
protein kinases in mammalian signal transduction and cancer.
