A NOVEL POLYPEPTIDE - HUMAN RETINOIC ACID-RESPONSIVE PROTEIN 53.57 AND A POLYNUCLEOTIDE ENCODING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention discloses a novel polypeptide - human retinoic acid-responsive protein 53.57 and a polynucleotide encoding the same, as well as a method of producing the polypeptide by DNA recombinant technique. The present invention also discloses methods of using the polypeptide in treatment of various disease, such as arhythmia, brochial asthma, peptic ulcer, diabetes mellitus, tumor, developmental deformation of embryo and so on. The present invention also discloses an antagonist against the polypeptide and the therapeutic use of the same. The present invention also discloses the use of such polynucleotide encoding human retinoic acid-responsive protein 53.57.
