ABSTRACT:
Human breast specific gene polypeptides and DNA (RNA) encoding such polypeptides and a procedure for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques is disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for utilizing such polynucleotides or polypeptides as a diagnostic marker for breast cancer and as an agent to determine if breast cancer has metastasized. Also disclosed are antibodies specific to the breast specific gene polypeptides which may be used to target cancer cells and be used as part of a breast cancer vaccine. Methods of screening for antagonists for the polypeptide and therapeutic uses thereof are also disclosed.
