Novel orphan cytokine receptors

摘要

The present invention provides for nucleic acid sequences that encode novel mammalian receptor polypeptides, designated HUMAN OCR10. The invention also provides assay systems that may be used to detect and/or measure ligands that bind the HUMAN OCR10 gene product. The present invention also provides for diagnostic and therapeutic methods based on the interaction between HUMAN OCR10 and agents that initiate signal transduction through binding to HUMAN OCR10.
