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