ABSTRACT:
Provided are nucleic acids encoding AL-1 protein, as well as AL-1 protein produced by recombinant DNA methods. Such AL-1 protein is useful in preparing antibodies and in diagnosing and treating various neuronal disorders. The present invention provides methods to preferentially detect or amplify AL-1 nucleic acid in a sample using AL-1 nucleotide sequence probes.
