DISEASE ASSOCIATED PROTEIN TYROSINE PHOSPHATASES

摘要

The present invention provides novel human protein tyrosine phosphatases (HPTP) and polynucleotides which identify and encode HPTP. The invention provides for genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences encoding HPTP and for a method of producing HPTP. The invention also provides for pharmaceutical compositions comprising HPTP or antagonists of HPTP, and antibodies which specifically bind HPTP. Additionally, the invention provides antisense molecules to HPTP for treatment or prevention of diseases associated with abnormal expression of HPTP.
