A HUMAN PROTEIN TYROSINE KINASE

摘要

The present invention provides a novel protein tyrosine kinase (HPTYK) and polynucleotides which identify and encode HPTYK. The invention also provides genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences encoding HPTYK and a method for producing HPTYK. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions containing HPTYK or antagonists to HPTYK, and for the use of these compositions in the treatment of diseases associated with the expression of HPTYK. Additionally, the invention provides for the use of antisense molecules to polynucleotides encoding HPTYK for the treatment of diseases associated with the expression of HPTYK. The invention also provides diagnostic assays which utilize the polynucleotide, or fragments or the complement thereof, to hybridize to the genomic sequence or transcripts of polynucleotides encoding HPTYK or antibodies which specifically bind to HPTYK.
