title: A role for RKIP in cell motility.
abstract: The target of locostatin, a small-molecule inhibitor of cell movement, has been identified as RKIP, a Raf-1 kinase modulator [1]. In addition to advancing our understanding of cell locomotion, this work represents a major landmark in the development of chemical genetics.
