摘要： The present invention relates generally to the control of body weight of animals including mammals and humans, and more particularly to materials identified herein as modulators of weight, and to the diagnostic and therapeutic uses to which such modulators may be put. In its broadest aspect, the present invention relates to the elucidation and discovery of nucleotide sequences, and proteins putatively expressed by such nucleotides or degenerate variations thereof, that demonstrate the ability to participate in the control of mammalian body weight. The nucleotide sequences in object represent the genes corresponding to the murine and human ob gene, that have been postulated to play a critical role in the regulation of body weight and adiposity. Preliminary data, presented herein, suggests that the polypeptide product of the gene in question functions as a hormone. The present invention further provides nucleic acid molecules for use as molecular probes, or as primers for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, i.e., synthetic or natural oligonucleotides. In further aspects, the present invention provides a cloning vector, which comprises the nucleic acids of the invention; and a bacterial, insect, or a mammalian expression vector, which comprises the nucleic acid molecules of the invention, operatively associated with an expression control sequence. Accordingly, the invention further relates to a bacterial or a mammalian cell transfected or transformed with an appropriate expression vector, and correspondingly, to the use of the above mentioned constructs in the preparation of the modulators of the invention. Also provided are antibodies to the ob polypeptide. Moreover, a method for modulating body weight of a mammal is provided. In specific examples, genes encoding two isoforms of both the murine and human ob polypeptides are provided.
摘要翻译： 本发明一般涉及包括哺乳动物和人在内的动物的体重控制，更具体地说，涉及本文中鉴定为重量调节剂的材料，以及可以将这些调节剂置于其上的诊断和治疗用途。 在其最广泛的方面，本发明涉及阐明和发现核苷酸序列和由这些核苷酸或其简并变异体推测表达的蛋白质，其表现出参与控制哺乳动物体重的能力。 物体中的核苷酸序列代表了对应于鼠和人类ob基因的基因，这些基因被假定在调节体重和肥胖中起关键作用。 本文提供的初步数据表明，所讨论的基因的多肽产物作为激素起作用。 本发明还提供用作分子探针的核酸分子，或用作聚合酶链反应（PCR）扩增的引物，即合成或天然寡核苷酸。 在另外的方面，本发明提供了一种克隆载体，其包含本发明的核酸; 和细菌，昆虫或哺乳动物表达载体，其包含与表达调控序列有效连接的本发明的核酸分子。 因此，本发明还涉及用合适的表达载体转染或转化的细菌或哺乳动物细胞，并且相应地涉及在制备本发明的调节剂中使用上述构建体。 还提供了针对ob多肽的抗体。 此外，提供了一种用于调节哺乳动物体重的方法。 在具体实例中，提供编码鼠和人类ob多态的两种同种型的基因。
