RAF PROTEIN KINASE THERAPEUTICS

摘要

It is a general object of this invention to provide a DNA segment comprising a Raf gene in an antisense orientation downstream of a promoter. It is a specific object of this invention to provide a method of inhibiting Raf expression comprising expressing an antisense Raf gene in a cell such that said Raf expression is inhibited. It is a further object of the invention to provide a method of inhibiting Raf kinase activity comprising replacement of a serine or threonine amino acid within the Raf gene for a non-phosphorylated amino acid.
