| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates to three novel peptidoglycan recognition binding proteins expressed by keratinocytes, wound-healing tissues and chondrosarcoma tissue. More specifically, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding human peptidoglycan recognition protein-related proteins, referred to herein as PGRP-K (Keratinocytes), PGRP-W (Wound-healing), and PGRP-C (Chondrosarcoma) of Figures 1A-B, Figures 2A-C, and Figure 3, respectively, each having homology to both human peptidoglycan recognition protein (PGRP) as well as murine Tag-7. PGRP-K, PGRP-W, and PGRP-C polypeptides are also provided. Further provided are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention also relates to both the inhibition and enhancement of activities of PGRP-K, PGRP-W, and PGRP-C polypeptides and diagnostic methods for detecting PGRP-K, PGRP-W, and PGRP-C gene expression.</p> |
