ABSTRACT:
Nucleic acid sequences, particularly DNA sequences, coding for all or a portion of human mevalonate kinase, expression vectors containing the DNA sequences, host cells containing the expression vectors, and methods for detecting the DNA sequences or the corresponding RNA sequences. The invention also concerns polypeptide molecules comprising all or a portion of human mevalonate kinase.
