Nek8, a NIMA family kinase member, is overexpressed in primary human breast tumors.

Gene - 17 Mar 2004

Bowers Alex J, Boylan John F

Abstract excerpt

The family of human Nek (NIMA Related Kinase) kinases currently contains 11 members. We have identified Nek8 as a new member of the Nek kinase family. For many of the Nek family members, primary tumor expression data and function have been limited. However, all of the Nek family proteins share considerable homology with the Never In Mitosis, gene A (NIMA) kinase from the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans....
