Abstract

The present invention provides novel polypeptides, antibodies, antagonists, agonists, potentiators, nucleic acid molecules, compositions and methods relating to the STOP-1 polypeptide that are useful for treating and preventing diseases and for medical diagnosis and research. The present invention also provides consensus sequences and specific sequences for antibodies that specifically bind to STOP-1 that are useful in the methods described herein.
