[Screening ubiquitin/ribosomal protein S27a by yeast two-hybridization system].

Background & Objective: Protein kinase CK2, a kind of ubiquitous eukaryotic messenger-independent protein serine/threonine kinase, plays a vital role in cell differentiation and proliferation, signal transduction and procession. Activity of CK2 in hematopoietic cells is 2-8 folds higher than that in relevant normal tissues, moreover changes of CK2 activity are correlated to tumor growth. In order to investigate the mechanism of its effect on hematopoietic cells, we used yeast two-hybridization screening the proteins interacting with protein kinase CK2alpha' subunit from HL-60 cells cDNA library.
