ABSTRACT:
The invention provides two human longevity-assurance protein homologs, designated individually as LAPH-1 and LAPH-2 and collectively as LAPH, and polynucleotides which identify and encode LAPH. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, agonists, antibodies and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for treating disorders associated with expression of LAPH.
