Zusammenfassung:The present inventors have now discovered that humans have a gene that encodes a novel protein of the thymosin beta family. This novel protein, herein referred to as thymosin beta 15, has the ability to bind and sequester G-actin, like other members of the thymosin beta family, but unlike what is known about other members it also directly regulates cell motility in prostatic carcinoma cells. The present invention is direct to an isolated cDNA encoding the human thymosin beta 15 gene (SEQ ID NO: 1) and have deduced the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 2).
