resulted in centrosome overduplication in a kinase-activity-dependent manner, while expression of kinase-dead STK38/STK38L or depletion of STK38/STK38L by small interfering RNA (siRNA) negatively affected centrosome duplication

STK38 kinase inactivation abrogates apoptosis following B-cell receptor activation, whereas its silencing significantly decreases MYC levels and increases apoptosis, thus providing a novel viable target for treating B-cell lymphomas
