摘要:
Two human G-protein coupled receptor polypeptides and DNA (RNA) encoding each of such polypeptides and a procedure for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques is disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for utilizing such polypeptides for identifying antagonists and agonists to such polypeptides. Also disclosed are diagnostic methods for detecting a mutation in the nucleic acid sequence of each of the G-protein coupled receptors.

摘要:
The present invention relates to novel Death Domain Containing Receptor-5 (DR5) proteins which are members of the tumor necrosis (TNF) receptor family, and have now been shown to bind TRAIL. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the human DR5 proteins. DR5 polypeptides are also provided as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying antagonists and antagonists of DR5 activity.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel immunogenic polypeptides, and fragments thereof, and vaccines for the prevention and treatment of pneumococcal infection, especially by Streptococcus pneumoniae . The invention also relates to antibodies against the disclosed polypeptides, as well as vacccines containing said polypeptides and methods of disease prevention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to antibodies and related molecules that specifically bind to TL5. Such antibodies have uses, for example, in the prevention and treatment of cancer as well as immune system diseases and disorders including autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis, graft rejection, graft vs. host disease, and lymphadenopathy. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding antiTL5 antibodies, vectors and host cells containing these nucleic acids, and methods for producing the same. The present invention relates to methods and compositions for preventing, detecting, diagnosing, treating or ameliorating a disease or disorder, especially cancer as well as immune system diseases and disorders including autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis, graft rejection, graft vs. host disease, and lymphadenopathy, comprising administering to an animal, preferably a human, an effective amount of one or more antibodies or fragments or variants thereof, or related molecules, that specifically bind to TL5.
