ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a human mitochondrial processing peptidase subunit (MPPS-1) and polynucleotides which identify and encode MPPS-1. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, agonists, antibodies and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for treating disorders associated with expression of MPPS-1.
