Abstract
This application is drawn to novel nucleic acid sequences encoding mammalian polypeptides that have sequence similarity to human fibroblast growth factor, FGF-10. The nucleic acid sequence is 670 nucleotides long and contains an open reading frame from nucleotides 130 to 639. The encoded polypeptides are novel secreted proteins.
Claims17
An isolated nucleic acid comprising any one of the following:
- (a) a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2;
- (b) a nucleic acid sequence at least 90% identical to the nucleic acid sequence of (a) above;
- (c) a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide wherein the polypeptide has conservative amino acid substitutions to the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2;
- or
- (d) a fragment of the nucleic acid sequence of (a), (b) or (c) above wherein the fragment comprises at least 20 nucleotides.
