ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a human cytokine/steroid receptor protein (CYSTAR) and polynucleotides which identify and encode CYSTAR. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, antibodies and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with expression of CYSTAR, as well as diagnostic assays.
