ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a two new human DnaJ-like proteins (HSPJ1 or HSPJ2) and polynucleotides which identify and encode HSPJ1 or HSPJ2. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, agonists, antibodies and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for treating disorders associated with expression of HSPJ1 or HSPJ2.
