ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a human FLAP II polypeptide and DNA (RNA) encoding such polypeptide. Also provided is a procedure for producing such polypeptide by recombinant techniques. Further, antagonist/inhibitors against such polypeptide are disclosed. Such antagonist/inhibitors may be used for therapeutic purposes, for example, for treating inflammation, bronchial asthma and may also be used as gastric cytoprotective agents and to treat human glomerulonephritis.
