Isolated human vCOL16A1 polypeptide and fragments thereof
The invention concerns GENSET polynucleotides and polypeptides. Such GENSET products may be used as reagents in forensic analyses, as chromosome markers, as tissue/cell/organelle-specific markers, in the production of expression vectors. In addition, they may be used in screening and diagnosis assays for abnormal GENSET expression and/or biological activity and for screening compounds that may be used in the treatment of GENSET-related disorders.
1. An isolated vCOL16A1 polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 58.
2. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein said polypeptide consists of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 58.
3. A composition comprising the polypeptide of claim 1 and a physiologically acceptable carrier.
4. An isolated polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence encoded by the human cDNA of deposited clone 625004 — 188-15-4-0-H6-F in ATCC accession number PTA-2534.
5. A composition comprising the polypeptide of claim 4 and a physiologically acceptable carrier.
6. A polypeptide fragment of SEQ ID NO: 58, wherein said fragment comprises at least 100 consecutive amino acids of SEQ ID NO:58.
7. A composition comprising the polypeptide of claim 6 and a physiologically acceptable carrier.
