The specification describes isolated, purified, or enriched nucleic acid molecules which correspond to particular genes encoding kinases, and to fragments of such genes, as well as the polypeptides encoded by such nucleic acids and antibodies specific for those polypeptides. Also disclosed are methods using such nucleic acid molecules, polypeptides, or antibodies for isolating the full coding sequences for those kinases, for determining the expression patterns and levels for those genes, for screening for agents which modulate the activity of one of the kinases, and for diagnosing or treating a disease associated with one of the kinases. |
