摘要 |
The present invention provides nucleotide and amino acid sequences that identify and encode a new human interleukin-1 converting enzyme homolog (ICEY). The present invention also provides for antisense molecules to the nucleotide sequences which encode ICEY, expression vectors for the production of purified ICEY, antibodies capable of binding specifically to ICEY, hybridization probes or oligonucleotides for the detection of ICEY-encoding nucleotide sequences, genetically engineered host cells for the expression of ICEY, diagnostic tests for activation of monocyte/macrophages based on ICEY-encoding nucleic acid molecules, and use of the protein to produce antibodies capable of binding specifically to the protein and use of the protein to screen for inhibitors.
