ABSTRACT:
We describe an Fve polypeptide being a fragment, homologue, variant or derivative of Fve protein, which comprises at least one biological activity of Fve protein. Uses of such a polypeptide, etc, and nucleic acids encoding these, in the treatment and prevention of allergy and cancer are also disclosed.
