ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a polynucleotide encoding Repro-EN-1.0 and IB1, polypeptides associated with endometriosis. Auto-antibodies against Repro-EN-1.0 and IB1 have been found in subjects diagnosed with endometriosis. This invention also provides methods of using this polynucleotide and polypeptide.
