Abstract
Molecular cloning techniques were used to isolate an ameba gene encodi ng a putative 33-kDa serine/threonine-kinase. The open reading frame o f this gene, called Ehmfk1 for E. histolytica mos family kinase, shows a 24% positional identity with the human proto-oncogene mos, includin g 32 of 33 amino acids conserved in other serine/threonine-kinases.
