Abstract: The present invention relates to an isolated full-length Chp polypeptide, a biologically-active polypeptide fragment thereof, and nucleic acids which code for it. This polypeptide has various activities in regulating cell signaling and signal transduction pathways, including, e.g., a PAK regulatory domain binding activity, a PAK kinase stimulatory activity, a JNK kinase stimulatory activity, a cytoskeletal-reorganizing activity, or a Chp-specific immunogenic activity. The invention relates to all aspects of Chp, or homologs thereof, including assays for modulators, activators, ligands, etc.

Abstract: A method of identifying a compound that induces apoptosis in a cell is disclosed. The method includes contacting the cell with a putative apoptosis-inducing compound and determining whether the compound inhibits L1. Also disclosed are methods for inducing apoptosis in a cell by inhibiting L1. The invention further includes methods for the diagnosis of a tumor that include determining the level of L1 as a marker in a patient sample, the level of the marker being indicative of the presence of tumor cells.
