PROTEINS AND POLYNUCLEOTIDES ENCODED THEREBY

摘要

The present invention provides novel polypeptides, termed MBSPX polypeptides, as well as polynucleotides encoding MBSPX polypeptides and antibodies that immunospecifically bind to an MBSPX or a derivative, variant, mutant, or fragment of an MBSPX polypeptide, polynucleotide or antibody. The invention additionally provides methods in which the MBSPX polypeptide, polynucleotide and antibody are used in detection and treatment of a broad range of pathological states, as well as to other uses.
