Novel human protease and polynucleotides encoding the same
Novel human polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences are disclosed that can be used in therapeutic, diagnostic, and pharmacogenomic applications.
1 . An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising at least 60 contiguous nucleotides from SEQ ID NO:1.
2 . An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence that:
(a) encodes the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2; and
(b) hybridizes under highly stringent conditions to the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 or the complement thereof.
3 . An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence that encodes the amino acid sequence described in SEQ ID NO:2.
4 . An isolated expression vector comprising a nucleic acid molecule that comprises at least 60 contiguous nucleotides from SEQ ID NO:1.
