PAK5, a member of the P21-activated kinase (PAK) protein family, nucleic acids and methods related thereto

摘要

The present invention provides a human polypeptide homolog of P 21 -activated kinase (PAK) polynucleotides which identify and encode PAK 5 serine/threonine kinase. In addition, the invention provides expression vectors, host cells and methods for its production. The invention also provides methods for the identification of PAK 5 agonists/antagonists, useful for the treatment of human diseases and conditions.
