ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a novel cDNA isolated from human osteoclastoma tissue which encodes a novel polypeptide identified herein as Extracellular/Epidermal Growth Factor HCABA58X owing in part to the presence in its amino acid sequence of epidermal growth factor (EGF) domains characteristic of the EGF family of polypeptides. Also provided are procedures for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques and therapeutic uses of the polypeptides. Also disclosed are antagonists against such polypeptides and their uses. Also disclosed are diagnostic assays for detecting altered levels of the polypeptides of the present invention and mutations in the nucleic acid sequences which encode such polypeptides.
