Abstract

The present invention provides polynucleotides (kin) which identify and encode novel protein kinases (KIN) expressed in various human cells and tissues. The present invention also provides for antisense sequences and oligonucleotides designed from the nucleotide sequences or their complements. The invention further provides genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells for the production of purified KIN peptides, antibodies capable of binding KIN, and inhibitors specifically bind KIN. The invention specifically provides for diagnostic kits and assays which identify a disorder or disease with altered kinase expression and allow monitoring of patients during drug therapy. These assays utilize oligonucleotides or antibodies produced using the kin polynucleotides.
