## BACKGROUND. Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a tyrosine kinase that is important to such key functions such as cell adhesion, motility, and invasion. A MEDLINE search of the years 1980 -1998 found no previous reports of FAK expression in human ovarian carcinoma. The authors performed experiments
Synthetic peptide substrates for the cell division cycle regulated protein kinase, ~34'~'', have been developed and characterized. These peptides are based on the sequences of two known substrates of the enzyme, Simian Virus 40 Large T antigen and the human cellular recessive oncogene product, p53.
cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum(ll) (CDDP) induced G2-phase arrest in PC-9 human cancer cells. To elucidate how CDDP acts on cell-cycle regulation, we analyzed the effect of CDDP on cell-cycle regulators such as protein kinase. p34cdc2 protein kinase activity was maximum in G2 phase and decreased after
