Abstract
The invention provides a cDNA sequence of a new human growth differentiation factor (hGDF3-2). The protein encoded by such sequence is a splice variant of hGDF3. The present invention also relates to peptides encoded by the nucleotide sequences, to uses of these polynucleotides and polypeptides, and methods for producing the said polynucleotides and polypeptides.
Claims8
An isolated DNA molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 6.
A method for producing a hGDF3-2 protein, which comprises the steps of;
- (a) forming an expression vector of hGDF3-2 protein comprising the nucleotide sequence encoding the hGDF3-2 protein having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 6, wherein said nucleotide sequence is operably linked with an expression regulatory sequence;
- (b) introducing the vector of step (a) into a host cell, thereby forming a recombinant cell of hGDF3-2 protein;
- (c) culturing the recombinant cell of step (b) under conditions suitable for expression of hGDF3-2 protein;
- (d) isolating the hGDF3-2 protein.
An isolated hGDF3-2 protein comprising a polypeptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:6.
