<p>The present invention provides a human apoptosis regulator protein (Aven) and polynucleotides which identify and encode Aven. The invention also provides genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences encoding Aven, and a method for producing Aven. The invention also provides for agonists, antibodies, or antagonists specifically binding Aven, and their use, in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with expression of Aven. Additionally, the invention provides for the use of antisense molecules to polynucleotides encoding Avent for the treatment of diseases associated with the expression of Aven. The invention also provides diagnostic assays which utilize the polynucleotide, or fragments or the complement thereof, and antibodies specifically binding Aven.</p> |
