Abstract excerpt
Connector enhancer of Ksr (CNK) is a conserved multidomain protein essential for Ras signaling in Drosophila melanogaster and thought to be involved in Raf kinase activation. However, the precise role of CNK in Ras signaling is not known, and mammalian CNKs are proposed to have distinct functions. Caenorhabditis elegans has a single CNK homologue, cnk-1. Here, we describe the role of cnk-1 in C. elegans Ras...
