Abstract

Disclosed are a nucleic acid molecule from nematodes encoding for purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyl transferase (PPPT) polypeptides. The PPPT-like polypeptide sequence is also provided, as are vectors, host cells, and recombinant methods for production of PPPT-like nucleotides and polypeptides. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying inhibitors and/or activators, as well as methods for antibody production.
