NOVEL POLYPEPTIDE AND NUCLEIC ACID ENCODING THE SAME

摘要

It is intended to disclose a novel protein capable of binding to tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor 2 (TRAF2) and a nucleic acid encoding the same. From a mouse cDNA library, a cDNA encoding a novel protein binding to TRAF2 is found out by a mammalian two-hybrid assay and its base sequence is determined. Also, a protein encoded by the cDNA is produced and experimentally confirmed as binding to TRAF2.
