The MAST Family of Genes
The MAST (Microtubule-Associated Serine/Threonine) kinases are large enzymes that are upstream of the PI3K signaling pathway that is a target for cancer and epilepsy therapies.
Mutations in these genes have been associated with developmental disabilities, seizures, changes in brain structure, and other issues.
