Novel kinase polypeptides, proteins, and nucleic acid molecules are
disclosed. In addition to isolated, full-length kinase proteins, the
invention further provides isolated kinase fusion proteins, antigenic
peptides, and anti-kinase antibodies. The invention also provides kinase
nucleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vectors containing a
nucleic acid molecule of the invention, host cells into which the
expression vectors have been introduced, and nonhuman transgenic animals
in which a kinase gene has been introduced or disrupted. Diagnostic,
screening, and therapeutic methods utilizing compositions of the
invention are also provided.
