Abstract
The present invention provides a human lysophospholipase (NHLP) and polynucleotides which identify and encode NHLP. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, agonists, antibodies and antagonists. In addition, the invention provides methods for producing NHLP and for treating or preventing disorders associated with expression of NHLP.
Claims2
A substantially purified polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of
- a) the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1,
- b) a naturally-occurring amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, wherein said amino acid sequence encodes a polypeptide having lysophospholipase activity,
- c) a biologically-active fragment of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, wherein said fragment encodes a polypeptide having lysophospholipase activity, and
- d) an immunologically-active fragment of at least 15 amino acid residues of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, wherein said polypeptide containing said fragment generates an antibody that specifically binds to the polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1.
