well how is it known that kinases were even involved with cancer, and i spoke with a man named ray ericson, who was the first scientist to uncover the connection, to find the involvement of kinase in cancer, and i said, how did you get there? why were you researching kinases? he said oh, ways researching a gene called sarc, and i with a looking for the protein products of a gene called sa -- src. i said why are you researching src? he said that was a gene involved in chicken cancer. why were you researching chicken cancer? he used to get made fun of researching chick than cancer in the 1970s and the story went like this. src was a gene involved in a virus that caused cancer in chickens, and when he went to find out, well, how did it cause cancer in chickens was when he uncovered the role of kinases. and where that gene had first been found went all the way back to 19 10, and this is just to give you an example of the twists and turns, how we just never know where science will lead to or where it has come from for that matter, so this is a true story. in 1910 there was a scientist named pey
