INTERLEUKIN-1 RECEPTOR INTRACELLULAR LIGAND PROTEINS AND INHIBITORS OF LIGAND BINDING

摘要

Novel IL-1-R intracellular ligand proteins are disclosed. Polynucleotides encoding the IL-1-R intracellular ligand protein are also disclosed, along with vectors, host cells, and methods of making the IL-1-R intracellular ligand protein. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the IL-1-R intracellular ligand protein, methods of treating inflammatory conditions, and methods of inhibiting IL-1-R intracellular domain binding are also disclosed. Methods of identifying inhibitors of IL-1-R intracellular domain binding andinhibitors identified by such methods are also disclosed.
