ABSTRACT:
An isolated nitrogen activated c-Fos regulating kinase polypeptide (FRK) having a molecular weight of about 88-kD as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE, having threonine and serine kinase activity, phosphorylating the c-Fos activation domain at amino acid residue Thr 232 and having polynucleotide sequences and a method of detection for FRK are provided herein. Also described are methods for identifying compositions which affect FRK activity, thereby affecting c-Fos activation and subsequent activation of genes associated with AP-1 sites.
