Isolated human dehydrogenases, nucleic acid molecules encoding these human dehydrogenases, and uses thereof
View Patent ↗The present invention provides amino acid sequences of polypeptides that are encoded by genes within the human genome, the dehydrogenase polypeptides of the present invention. The present invention specifically provides isolated polypeptide and nucleic acid molecules, methods of identifying orthologs and paralogs of the dehydrogenase polypeptides, and methods of identifying modulators of the dehydrogenase polypeptides.
