ABSTRACT:
A human protein (designated Carboxy-terminal Modulating protein, CTMP) is described and is identified as having tumour suppressor properties. CTMP has been shown to interact with protein kinase B and inhibit protein kinase B activity, establishing its importance in the protein kinase B signalling pathway.
