ABSTRACT:
In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel Schwannomin-Binding-Proteins (SBPs). Nucleic acid sequences encoding such proteins and assays employing same are also disclosed. The invention SBPs can be employed in a variety of ways, for example, for the production of anti-SBP antibodies thereto, in therapeutic compositions and methods employing such proteins and/or antibodies. Also provided are transgenic non-human mammals that express the invention protein.
