DNA encoding retinotic acid receptor epsilon

摘要

Disclosed is a retinoic acid receptor epsilon (RAR epsilon ) polynucleotide and DNA (RNA) encoding such polypeptides. Also provided is a procedure for producing such polypeptide by recombinant techniques and utilizing such polypeptide for therapeutic purposes, for example, tissue regeneration and stimulation of the immune and hematopoietic system. Also disclosed are methods of identifying ligands which stimulate the RAR epsilon . Also disclosed are diagnostic methods for detecting a mutation in the RAR epsilon receptor nucleic acid sequences and detecting a level of the soluble form of the receptors in a sample derived from a host.
