ABSTRACT:
The invention provides two human phospholipid binding proteins (PLBP) and polynucleotides which identify and encode PLBP. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, agonists, antibodies and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for treating and preventing disorders associated with expression of PLBP.
