ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a novel tumor suppressor gene, SSeCKSS. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery of a gene, hitherto referred to as "322" (Lin et al., 1995, Mol. Cell. Biol. 15:2754-2762) but now referred to as SSeCKS, which was found to be down-regulated in certain transformed cells. Further, the SSeCKS gene product was subsequently shown to be a substrate of protein kinase C. SSeCKS protein has been shown to act as a mitogenic regulator and as an inhibitor of the transformed phenotype.
