| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates generally to a sphingosine kinase variant and to derivatives, analogues, chemical equivalents and mimetics thereof exhibiting reduced catalytic activity and, more particularly, to sphingosine kinase variants which exhibit a reduced capacity to phosphorylate sphingosine to sphingosine-1-phosphate. The present invention also contemplates genetic sequences encoding said sphingosine kinase variants and derivatives, analogues and mimetics thereof. The variants of the present invention are useful in a range of therapeutic and prophylactic applications.</p> |
