ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a human pathogenesis-related protein (HPRP) and polynucleotides which identify and encode HPRP. The invention also provides genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences encoding HPRP and a method for producing HPRP. The invention also provides for agonists, antibodies, or antagonists specifically binding HPRP, and their use, in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with expression of HPRP. Additionally, the invention provides for the use of antisense molecules to polynucleotides encoding HPRP for the treatment of diseases associated with the expression of HPRP. The invention also provides diagnostic assays which utilize the polynucleotide, or fragments or the complement thereof, and antibodies specifically binding HPRP.
