Abstract: Provided is a golf training kit for playing on a small course. The kit comprises a ball mound comprising a seat having a tee, a rope having one end attached to the seat, and a foot member at the other end of the rope; and a target assembly comprising a base assembly of a predetermined height and including a plurality of peripheral openings, a support on a top of the base assembly, and a bell hung under the support. In playing, a person stands on the foot member prior to hitting a ball. The bell rings when struck by the ball driven through the opening. Additionally, there are provided a hollow pole comprising a base segment releasably secured onto the support, and at least one connecting segment releasably connected to the base segment, and a flag attached to the topmost connecting segment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tumor suppressor gene, termed large tumor suppressor (lats). The invention provides nucleotide sequences of lats genes, and amino acid sequences of their encoded proteins, as well as derivatives (e.g., fragments) and analogs thereof. Diagnostic methods and pharmaceutical compositions are also provided. The invention further relates to treatment or prevention of disease or disorder involving cell proliferation by administering compounds that promote lats activity (e.g., lats, an agonist of lats; nucleic acids that encode lats).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tumor suppressor gene, termed large tumor suppressor (lats), and methods for identifying tumor suppressor genes. The method provides nucleotide sequences of lats genes, and amino acid sequences of their encoded proteins, as well as derivatives (e.g., fragments) and analogs thereof. In a specific embodiment, the lats protein is a human protein. The invention further relates to fragments (and derivatives and analogs thereof) of lats which comprise one or more domains of a lats protein. Antibodies to lats, its derivatives and analogs, are additionally provided. Methods of production of the lats proteins, derivatives and analogs, e.g., by recombinant means, are also provided. Therapeutic and diagnostic methods and pharmaceutical compositions are provided. The invention also relates to recombinant plants and animals and methods of increasing the growth of edible plants and animals.
