Claims
- 1. An isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of:(a) a transcript or cDNA sequence that encodes a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:2; (b) SEQ ID NO:1; (c) nucleotides 3-1190 of SEQ ID NO:1; and (d) a nucleotide sequence that is completely complementary to the nucleotide sequence of (a), (b) or (c).
- 2. An isolated nucleic acid molecule having a nucleotide sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:1 or the complement thereof.
- 3. An isolated nucleic acid molecule having a nucleotide sequence comprising nucleotides 3-1190 of SEQ ID NO:1 or the complement thereof.
- 4. An isolated transcript or cDNA nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence that encodes a polypeptide comprising SEQ ID NO:2, or the complement of said nucleotide sequence.
- 5. The isolated nucleic acid molecule of claim 1, further comprising a heterologous nucleotide sequence.
- 6. The isolated nucleic acid molecule of claim 5, wherein the heterologous nucleotide sequence encodes a heterologous amino acid sequence.
- 7. A vector comprising the nucleic acid molecule of any one of claims 1-6.
- 8. An isolated host cell containing the vector of claim 7.
- 9. A process for producing a polypeptide comprising culturing the host cell of claim 8 under conditions sufficient for the production of said polypeptide, and recovering said polypeptide.
- 10. The vector of claim 7, wherein said vector is selected from the group consisting of a plasmid, a virus, and a bacteriophage.
- 11. The vector of claim 7, wherein said nucleic acid molecule is inserted into said vector in proper orientation and correct reading frame such that a polypeptide comprising SEQ ID NO:2 is expressed by a cell transformed with said vector.
- 12. The vector of claim 11, wherein said isolated nucleic acid molecules is operatively linked to a promoter sequence.
