Methods and materials relating to prothrombinase-like polypeptides and polynucleotides

摘要

The invention provides novel polynucleotides and polypeptides encoded by such polynucleotides and mutants or variants thereof that correspond to a novel secreted prothrombinase-like polypeptide. These polynucleotides comprise nucleic acid sequences isolated from cDNA library from human ovary (Hyseq clone identification numbers 773565 (SEQ ID NO: 1) and 7727065 (SEQ ID NO: 11)). Other aspects of the invention include vectors containing processes for producing novel secreted prothrombinase-like polypeptides, and antibodies specific for such polypeptides.
