Nucleic acid molecule encoding a PANG6 polypeptide
The invention provides isolated nucleic acid molecules encoding PAAD-domain containing polypeptides and functional fragments thereof, including fragments containing PAAD domains, NB-ARC domains and LRR domains, encoded polypeptides, and antibodies. Also provided are methods of identifying polypeptides and agents that associate with a PAAD-domain containing polypeptide or fragment thereof, or that alter an association of a PAAD domain-containing polypeptides. Further provided are methods of identifying agents that modulate PAAD domain-mediated inhibition of NFκB activity, or modulate an activity of an NB-ARC domain of a PAAD domain-containing polypeptide. Also provided are methods of modulating NFκB transcriptional activity in a cell, and methods of altering expression of a PAAD domain-containing polypeptide in a cell.

(a) a nucleic acid molecule encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence set forth as SEQ ID NO: 24; or
(b) a nucleic acid molecule that hybridizes to the nucleic acid molecule of (a) under highly stringent conditions, wherein the nucleic acid of (a) or (b) encodes a PAAD domain-containing polypeptide having NFκB activation inhibiting activity.
2. The nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 , comprising a nucleotide sequence set forth as SEQ ID NO:23.
3. A vector containing the nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 .
4. A recombinant cell containing the nucleic acid molecule of claim 1 .
