The NIMA-related kinase family and cancer

27 Mar 2025

Abstract excerpt

Cancer is a disease where cells begin to divide uncontrollably and spread to other parts of the body. Mitotic kinases play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of all human malignancies, making them common therapeutic targets. However, a significant portion of the human kinome has yet to be functionally studied in cancer systems. The NIMA-related kinase family (NEKs), consisting of 11 members...
