Tnk1/Kos1 is a non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase implicated in negatively regulating cell growth in a mechanism requiring its intrinsic catalytic activity. Tnk1/Kos1 null mice were created by homologous recombination by deleting the catalytic domain. Both Tnk1(+/-) and Tnk1(-/-) mice develop spontaneous tumors, including lymphomas and carcinomas, at high rates [27% (14 of 52) and 43% (12 of 28), respectively]....
