Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to novel polypeptides that are targets of small molecule drugs and that have properties related to stimulation of biochemical or physiological responses in a cell, a tissue, an organ or an organism. More particularly, the novel polypeptides are gene products of novel genes, or are specified biologically active fragments or derivatives thereof. Methods of use encompass diagnostic and prognostic assay procedures as well as methods of treating diverse pathological conditions. The present invention discloses novel associations of proteins and polypeptides and the nucleic acids that encode them with various diseases or pathologies. The proteins and related proteins that are similar to them, are encoded by a cDNA and/or by genomic DNA. The proteins, polypeptides and their cognate nucleic acids were identified by Curagen Corporation in certain cases. The XYZase-encoded protein and any variants, thereof, are suitable as diagnostic markers, targets for an antibody therapeutic and targets for small molecule drugs. As such the current invention embodies the use of recombinantly expressed and/or endogenously expressed protein in various screens to identify such therapeutic antibodies and/or therapeutic small molecules.

BACKGROUND

[0003] Eukaryotic cells are characterized by biochemical and physiological processes which under normal conditions are exquisitely balanced to achieve the preservation and propagation of the cells. When such cells are components of multicellular organisms such as vertebrates, or more particularly organisms such as mammals, the regulation of the biochemical and physiological processes involves intricate signaling pathways. Frequently, such signaling pathways are constituted of extracellular signaling proteins, cellular receptors that bind the signaling proteins and signal transducing components located within the cells.

[0004] Signaling proteins may be classified as endocrine effectors, paracrine effectors or autocrine effectors. Endocrine effectors are signaling molecules secreted by a given organ into the circulatory system, which are then transported to a distant target organ or tissue. The target cells include the receptors for the endocrine effector, and when the endocrine effector binds, a signaling cascade is induced. Paracrine effectors involve secreting cells and receptor cells in close proximity to each other, for example two different classes of cells in the same tissue or organ. One class of cells secretes the paracrine effector, which then reaches the second class of cells, for example by diffusion through the extracellular fluid. The second class of cells contains the receptors for the paracrine effector; binding of the effector results in induction of the signaling cascade that elicits the corresponding biochemical or physiological effect. Autocrine effectors are highly analogous to paracrine effectors, except that the same cell type that secretes the autocrine effector also contains the receptor. Thus the autocrine effector binds to receptors on the same cell, or on identical neighboring cells. The binding process then elicits the characteristic biochemical or physiological effect.

[0005] Signaling processes may elicit a variety of effects on cells and tissues including by way of nonlimiting example induction of cell or tissue proliferation, suppression of growth or proliferation, induction of differentiation or maturation of a cell or tissue, and suppression of differentiation or maturation of a cell or tissue.

[0006] Many pathological conditions involve dysregulation of expression of important effector proteins. In certain classes of pathologies the dysregulation is manifested as diminished or suppressed level of synthesis and secretion protein effectors. In a clinical setting a subject may be suspected of suffering from a condition brought on by diminished or suppressed levels of a protein effector of interest. Therefore there is a need to be able to assay for the level of the protein effector of interest in a biological sample from such a subject, and to compare the level with that characteristic of a nonpathological condition. There further is a need to provide the protein effector as a product of manufacture. Administration of the effector to a subject in need thereof is useful in treatment of the pathological condition, or the protein effector deficiency or suppression may be favorably acted upon by the administration of another small molecule drug product. Accordingly, there is a need for a method of treatment of a pathological condition brought on by a diminished or suppressed levels of the protein effector of interest.

[0007] Small molecule targets have been implicated in various disease states or pathologies. These targets may be proteins, and particularly enzymatic proteins, which are acted upon by small molecule drugs for the purpose of altering target function and achieving a desired result. Cellular, animal and clinical studies can be performed to elucidate the genetic contribution to the etiology and pathogenesis of conditions in which small molecule targets are implicated in a variety of physiologic, pharmacologic or native states. These studies utilize the core technologies at CuraGen Corporation to look at differential gene expression, protein-protein interactions, large-scale sequencing of expressed genes and the association of genetic variations such as, but not limited to, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or splice variants in and between biological samples from experimental and control groups. The goal of such studies is to identify potential avenues for therapeutic intervention in order to prevent, treat the consequences or cure the conditions.

[0008] In order to treat diseases, pathologies and other abnormal states or conditions in which a mammalian organism has been diagnosed as being, or as being at risk for becoming, other than in a normal state or condition, it is important to identify new therapeutic agents. Such a procedure includes at least the steps of identifying a target component within an affected tissue or organ, and identifying a candidate therapeutic agent that modulates the functional attributes of the target. The target component may be any biological macromolecule implicated in the disease or pathology. Commonly the target is a polypeptide or protein with specific functional attributes. Other classes of macromolecule may be a nucleic acid, a polysaccharide, a lipid such as a complex lipid or a glycolipid; in addition a target may be a sub-cellular structure or extra-cellular structure that is comprised of more than one of these classes of macromolecule. Once such a target has been identified, it may be employed in a screening assay in order to identify favorable candidate therapeutic agents from among a large population of substances or compounds.

[0009] In many cases the objective of such screening assays is to identify small molecule candidates; this is commonly approached by the use of combinatorial methodologies to develop the population of substances to be tested. The implementation of high throughput screening methodologies is advantageous when working with large, combinatorial libraries of compounds.

[0010] It is an objective of this invention to provide at least one target biopolymer that is intended to serve as the macromolecular component in a screening assay for identifying candidate pharmaceutical agents.

[0011] It is another objective of the present invention to provide screening assays that positively identify candidate pharmaceutical agents from among a combinatorial library of low molecular weight substances or compounds.

[0012] It is still a further objective of this invention to employ the candidate pharmaceutical agents in any of a variety of in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo assays in order to identify pharmaceutical agents with advantageous therapeutic applications in the treatment of a disease, pathology, or abnormal state or condition in a mammal.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0013] The invention is based in part upon the discovery of nucleic acid sequences encoding novel polypeptides. These nucleic acids and polypeptides, as well as derivatives, homologs, analogs and fragments thereof, will hereinafter be collectively designated as “NOVX” nucleic acid, which represents the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or polypeptide sequences, which represents the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178.

[0014] In one aspect, the invention provides an isolated polypeptide comprising a mature form of a NOVX amino acid. One example is a variant of a mature form of a NOVX amino acid sequence, wherein any amino acid in the mature form is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence of the mature form are so changed. The amino acid can be, for example, a NOVX amino acid sequence or a variant of a NOVX amino acid sequence, wherein any amino acid specified in the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence are so changed. The invention also includes fragments of any of these. In another aspect, the invention also includes an isolated nucleic acid that encodes a NOVX polypeptide, or a fragment, homolog, analog or derivative thereof.

[0015] Also included in the invention is a NOVX polypeptide that is a naturally occurring allelic variant of a NOVX sequence. In one embodiment, the allelic variant includes an amino acid sequence that is the translation of a nucleic acid sequence differing by a single nucleotide from a NOVX nucleic acid sequence. In another embodiment, the NOVX polypeptide is a variant polypeptide described therein, wherein any amino acid specified in the chosen sequence is changed to provide a conservative substitution. In one embodiment, the invention discloses a method for determining the presence or amount of the NOVX polypeptide in a sample. The method involves the steps of: providing a sample; introducing the sample to an antibody that binds immunospecifically to the polypeptide; and determining the presence or amount of antibody bound to the NOVX polypeptide, thereby determining the presence or amount of the NOVX polypeptide in the sample. In another embodiment, the invention provides a method for determining the presence of or predisposition to a disease associated with altered levels of a NOVX polypeptide in a mammalian subject. This method involves the steps of: measuring the level of expression of the polypeptide in a sample from the first mammalian subject; and comparing the amount of the polypeptide in the sample of the first step to the amount of the polypeptide present in a control sample from a second mammalian subject known not to have, or not to be predisposed to, the disease, wherein an alteration in the expression level of the polypeptide in the first subject as compared to the control sample indicates the presence of or predisposition to the disease.

[0016] In a further embodiment, the invention includes a method of identifying an agent that binds to a NOVX polypeptide. This method involves the steps of: introducing the polypeptide to the agent; and determining whether the agent binds to the polypeptide. In various embodiments, the agent is a cellular receptor or a downstream effector.

[0017] In another aspect, the invention provides a method for identifying a potential therapeutic agent for use in treatment of a pathology, wherein the pathology is related to aberrant expression or aberrant physiological interactions of a NOVX polypeptide. The method involves the steps of: providing a cell expressing the NOVX polypeptide and having a property or function ascribable to the polypeptide; contacting the cell with a composition comprising a candidate substance; and determining whether the substance alters the property or function ascribable to the polypeptide; whereby, if an alteration observed in the presence of the substance is not observed when the cell is contacted with a composition devoid of the substance, the substance is identified as a potential therapeutic agent. In another aspect, the invention describes a method for screening for a modulator of activity or of latency or predisposition to a pathology associated with the NOVX polypeptide. This method involves the following steps: administering a test compound to a test animal at increased risk for a pathology associated with the NOVX polypeptide, wherein the test animal recombinantly expresses the NOVX polypeptide. This method involves the steps of measuring the activity of the NOVX polypeptide in the test animal after administering the compound of step; and comparing the activity of the protein in the test animal with the activity of the NOVX polypeptide in a control animal not administered the polypeptide, wherein a change in the activity of the NOVX polypeptide in the test animal relative to the control animal indicates the test compound is a modulator of latency of, or predisposition to, a pathology associated with the NOVX polypeptide. In one embodiment, the test animal is a recombinant test animal that expresses a test protein transgene or expresses the transgene under the control of a promoter at an increased level relative to a wild-type test animal, and wherein the promoter is not the native gene promoter of the transgene. In another aspect, the invention includes a method for modulating the activity of the NOVX polypeptide, the method comprising introducing a cell sample expressing the NOVX polypeptide with a compound that binds to the polypeptide in an amount sufficient to modulate the activity of the polypeptide.

[0018] The invention also includes an isolated nucleic acid that encodes a NOVX polypeptide, or a fragment, homolog, analog or derivative thereof. In a preferred embodiment, the nucleic acid molecule comprises the nucleotide sequence of a naturally occurring allelic nucleic acid variant. In another embodiment, the nucleic acid encodes a variant polypeptide, wherein the variant polypeptide has the polypeptide sequence of a naturally occurring polypeptide variant. In another embodiment, the nucleic acid molecule differs by a single nucleotide from a NOVX nucleic acid sequence. In one embodiment, the NOVX nucleic acid molecule hybridizes under stringent conditions to the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or a complement of the nucleotide sequence. In another aspect, the invention provides a vector or a cell expressing a NOVX nucleotide sequence.

[0019] In one embodiment, the invention discloses a method for modulating the activity of a NOVX polypeptide. The method includes the steps of: introducing a cell sample expressing the NOVX polypeptide with a compound that binds to the polypeptide in an amount sufficient to modulate the activity of the polypeptide. In another embodiment, the invention includes an isolated NOVX nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising a NOVX amino acid sequence or a variant of a mature form of the NOVX amino acid sequence, wherein any amino acid in the mature form of the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence of the mature form are so changed. In another embodiment, the invention includes an amino acid sequence that is a variant of the NOVX amino acid sequence, in which any amino acid specified in the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence are so changed.

[0020] In one embodiment, the invention discloses a NOVX nucleic acid fragment encoding at least a portion of a NOVX polypeptide or any variant of the polypeptide, wherein any amino acid of the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 10% of the amino acid residues in the sequence are so changed. In another embodiment, the invention includes the complement of any of the NOVX nucleic acid molecules or a naturally occurring allelic nucleic acid variant. In another embodiment, the invention discloses a NOVX nucleic acid molecule that encodes a variant polypeptide, wherein the variant polypeptide has the polypeptide sequence of a naturally occurring polypeptide variant. In another embodiment, the invention discloses a NOVX nucleic acid, wherein the nucleic acid molecule differs by a single nucleotide from a NOVX nucleic acid sequence.

[0021] In another aspect, the invention includes a NOVX nucleic acid, wherein one or more nucleotides in the NOVX nucleotide sequence is changed to a different nucleotide provided that no more than 15% of the nucleotides are so changed. In one embodiment, the invention discloses a nucleic acid fragment of the NOVX nucleotide sequence and a nucleic acid fragment wherein one or more nucleotides in the NOVX nucleotide sequence is changed from that selected from the group consisting of the chosen sequence to a different nucleotide provided that no more than 15% of the nucleotides are so changed. In another embodiment, the invention includes a nucleic acid molecule wherein the nucleic acid molecule hybridizes under stringent conditions to a NOVX nucleotide sequence or a complement of the NOVX nucleotide sequence. In one embodiment, the invention includes a nucleic acid molecule, wherein the sequence is changed such that no more than 15% of the nucleotides in the coding sequence differ from the NOVX nucleotide sequence or a fragment thereof.

[0022] In a further aspect, the invention includes a method for determining the presence or amount of the NOVX nucleic acid in a sample. The method involves the steps of: providing the sample; introducing the sample to a probe that binds to the nucleic acid molecule; and determining the presence or amount of the probe bound to the NOVX nucleic acid molecule, thereby determining the presence or amount of the NOVX nucleic acid molecule in the sample. In one embodiment, the presence or amount of the nucleic acid molecule is used as a marker for cell or tissue type.

[0023] In another aspect, the invention discloses a method for determining the presence of or predisposition to a disease associated with altered levels of the NOVX nucleic acid molecule of in a first mammalian subject. The method involves the steps of: measuring the amount of NOVX nucleic acid in a sample from the first mammalian subject; and comparing the amount of the nucleic acid in the sample of step (a) to the amount of NOVX nucleic acid present in a control sample from a second mammalian subject known not to have or not be predisposed to, the disease; wherein an alteration in the level of the nucleic acid in the first subject as compared to the control sample indicates the presence of or predisposition to the disease.

[0027] Table 1 indicates homology of NOVX nucleic acids to known protein families. Thus, the nucleic acids and polypeptides, antibodies and related compounds according to the invention corresponding to a NOVX as identified in column 1 of Table 1 will be useful in therapeutic and diagnostic applications implicated in, for example, pathologies and disorders associated with the known protein families identified in column 5 of Table 1.

[0028] NOVX nucleic acids and their encoded polypeptides are useful in a variety of applications and contexts. The various NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides according to the invention are useful as novel members of the protein families according to the presence of domains and sequence relatedness to previously described proteins. Additionally, NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides can also be used to identify proteins that are members of the family to which the NOVX polypeptides belong.

[0029] Consistent with other known members of the family of proteins, identified in column 5 of Table 1, the NOVX polypeptides of the present invention show homology to, and contain domains that are characteristic of, other members of such protein families. Details of the sequence relatedness and domain analysis for each NOVX are presented in Example A.

[0030] The NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides can also be used to screen for molecules, which inhibit or enhance NOVX activity or function. Specifically, the nucleic acids and polypeptides according to the invention may be used as targets for the identification of small molecules that modulate or inhibit diseases associated with the protein families listed in Table 1.

[0031] The NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides are also useful for detecting specific cell types. Details of the expression analysis for each NOVX are presented in Example C. Accordingly, the NOVX nucleic acids, polypeptides, antibodies and related compounds according to the invention will have diagnostic and therapeutic applications in the detection of a variety of diseases with differential expression in normal vs. diseased tissues, e.g. a variety of cancers.

[0032] Additional utilities for NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides according to the invention are disclosed herein.

[0033] The present invention is based on the identification of biological macromolecules differentially modulated in a pathologic state, disease, or an abnormal condition or state. Among the pathologies or diseases of present interest include metabolic diseases including those related to endocrinologic disorders, cancers, various tumors and neoplasias, inflammatory disorders, central nervous system disorders, and similar abnormal conditions or states. In very significant embodiments of the present invention, the biological macromolecules implicated in the pathologies and conditions are proteins and polypeptides, and in such cases the present invention is related as well to the nucleic acids that encode them. Methods that may be employed to identify relevant biological macromolecules include any procedures that detect differential expression of nucleic acids encoding proteins and polypeptides associated with the disorder, as well as procedures that detect the respective proteins and polypeptides themselves. Significant methods that have been employed by the present inventors, include GeneCalling® technology and SeqCalling TM technology, disclosed respectively, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,871,697, and in U. S. Ser. No. 09/417,386, filed Oct. 13, 1999, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. GeneCalling® is also described in Shimkets, et al., “Gene expression analysis by transcript profiling coupled to a gene database query” Nature Biotechnology 17:198-803 (1999).

[0034] The invention provides polypeptides and nucleotides encoded thereby that have been identified as having novel associations with a disease or pathology, or an abnormal state or condition, in a mammal. The present invention further identifies a set of proteins and polypeptides, including naturally occurring polypeptides, precursor forms or proproteins, or mature forms of the polypeptides or proteins, which are implicated as targets for therapeutic agents in the treatment of various diseases, pathologies, abnormal states and conditions. A target may be employed in any of a variety of screening methodologies in order to identify candidate therapeutic agents which interact with the target and in so doing exert a desired or favorable effect. The candidate therapeutic agent is identified by screening a large collection of substances or compounds in an important embodiment of the invention. Such a collection may comprise a combinatorial library of substances or compounds in which, in at least one subset of substances or compounds, the individual members are related to each other by simple structural variations based on a particular canonical or basic chemical structure. The variations may include, by way of nonlimiting example, changes in length or identity of a basic framework of bonded atoms; changes in number, composition and disposition of ringed structures, bridge structures, alicyclic rings, and aromatic rings; and changes in pendent or substituents atoms or groups that are bonded at particular positions to the basic framework of bonded atoms or to the ringed structures, the bridge structures, the alicyclic structures, or the aromatic structures.

[0035] A polypeptide or protein described herein, and that serves as a target in the screening procedure, includes the product of a naturally occurring polypeptide or precursor form or proprotein. The naturally occurring polypeptide, precursor or proprotein includes, e.g., the full-length gene product, encoded by the corresponding gene. The naturally occurring polypeptide also includes the polypeptide, precursor or proprotein encoded by an open reading frame described herein. A “mature” form of a polypeptide or protein arises as a result of one or more naturally occurring processing steps as they may occur within the cell, including a host cell. The processing steps occur as the gene product arises, e.g., via cleavage of the amino-terminal methionine residue encoded by the initiation codon of an open reading frame, or the proteolytic cleavage of a signal peptide or leader sequence. Thus, a mature form arising from a precursor polypeptide or protein that has residues 1 to N, where residue 1 is the N-terminal methionine, would have residues 2 through N remaining. Alternatively, a mature form arising from a precursor polypeptide or protein having residues 1 to N, in which an amino-terminal signal sequence from residue 1 to residue M is cleaved, includes the residues from residue M+1 to residue N remaining. A “mature” form of a polypeptide or protein may also arise from non-proteolytic post-translational modification. Such non-proteolytic processes include, e.g., glycosylation, myristylation or phosphorylation. In general, a mature polypeptide or protein may result from the operation of only one of these processes, or the combination of any of them.

[0036] As used herein, “identical” residues correspond to those residues in a comparison between two sequences where the equivalent nucleotide base or amino acid residue in an alignment of two sequences is the same residue. Residues are alternatively described as “similar” or “positive” when the comparisons between two sequences in an alignment show that residues in an equivalent position in a comparison are either the same amino acid or a conserved amino acid as defined below.

[0037] As used herein, a “chemical composition” relates to a composition including at least one compound that is either synthesized or extracted from a natural source. A chemical compound may be the product of a defined synthetic procedure. Such a synthesized compound is understood herein to have defined properties in terms of molecular formula, molecular structure relating the association of bonded atoms to each other, physical properties such as chromatographic or spectroscopic characterizations, and the like. A compound extracted from a natural source is advantageously analyzed by chemical and physical methods in order to provide a representation of its defined properties, including its molecular formula, molecular structure relating the association of bonded atoms to each other, physical properties such as chromatographic or spectroscopic characterizations, and the like.

[0038] As used herein, a “candidate therapeutic agent” is a chemical compound that includes at least one substance shown to bind to a target biopolymer. In important embodiments of the invention, the target biopolymer is a protein or polypeptide, a nucleic acid, a polysaccharide or proteoglycan, or a lipid such as a complex lipid. The method of identifying compounds that bind to the target effectively eliminates compounds with little or no binding affinity, thereby increasing the potential that the identified chemical compound may have beneficial therapeutic applications. In cases where the “candidate therapeutic agent” is a mixture of more than one chemical compound, subsequent screening procedures may be carried out to identify the particular substance in the mixture that is the binding compound, and that is to be identified as a candidate therapeutic agent.

[0039] As used herein, a “pharmaceutical agent” is provided by screening a candidate therapeutic agent using models for a disease state or pathology in order to identify a candidate exerting a desired or beneficial therapeutic effect with relation to the disease or pathology. Such a candidate that successfully provides such an effect is termed a pharmaceutical agent herein. Nonlimiting examples of model systems that may be used in such screens include particular cell lines, cultured cells, tissue preparations, whole tissues, organ preparations, intact organs, and nonhuman mammals. Screens employing at least one system, and preferably more than one system, may be employed in order to identify a pharmaceutical agent. Any pharmaceutical agent so identified may be pursued in further investigation using human subjects.

[0040] NOVX Nucleic Acids and Polypeptides

[0041] NOVX Clones

[0042] NOVX nucleic acids and their encoded polypeptides are useful in a variety of applications and contexts. The various NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides according to the invention are useful as novel members of the protein families according to the presence of domains and sequence relatedness to previously described proteins. Additionally, NOVX nucleic acids and polypeptides can also be used to identify proteins that are members of the family to which the NOVX polypeptides belong.

[0043] The NOVX genes and their corresponding encoded proteins are useful for preventing, treating or ameliorating medical conditions, e.g., by protein or gene therapy. Pathological conditions can be diagnosed by determining the amount of the new protein in a sample or by determining the presence of mutations in the new genes. Specific uses are described for each of the NOVX genes, based on the tissues in which they are most highly expressed. Uses include developing products for the diagnosis or treatment of a variety of diseases and disorders.

[0044] The NOVX nucleic acids and proteins of the invention are useful in potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications and as a research tool. These include serving as a specific or selective nucleic acid or protein diagnostic and/or prognostic marker, wherein the presence or amount of the nucleic acid or the protein are to be assessed, as well as potential therapeutic applications such as the following: (i) a protein therapeutic, (ii) a small molecule drug target, (iii) an antibody target (therapeutic, diagnostic, drug targeting/cytotoxic antibody), (iv) a nucleic acid useful in gene therapy (gene delivery/gene ablation), and (v) a composition promoting tissue regeneration in vitro and in vivo (vi) biological defense weapon.

[0045] In one specific embodiment, the invention includes an isolated polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of: (a) a mature form of the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; (b) a variant of a mature form of the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, wherein any amino acid in the mature form is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence of the mature form are so changed; (c) an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; (d) a variant of the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 wherein any amino acid specified in the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence are so changed; and (e) a fragment of any of (a) through (d).

[0046] In another specific embodiment, the invention includes an isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of: (a) a mature form of the amino acid sequence given SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; (b) a variant of a mature form of the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 wherein any amino acid in the mature form of the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence of the mature form are so changed; (c) the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; (d) a variant of the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, in which any amino acid specified in the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 15% of the amino acid residues in the sequence are so changed; (e) a nucleic acid fragment encoding at least a portion of a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 or any variant of said polypeptide wherein any amino acid of the chosen sequence is changed to a different amino acid, provided that no more than 10% of the amino acid residues in the sequence are so changed; and (f) the complement of any of said nucleic acid molecules.

[0047] In yet another specific embodiment, the invention includes an isolated nucleic acid molecule, wherein said nucleic acid molecule comprises a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of: (a) the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; (b) a nucleotide sequence wherein one or more nucleotides in the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 is changed from that selected from the group consisting of the chosen sequence to a different nucleotide provided that no more than 15% of the nucleotides are so changed; (c) a nucleic acid fragment of the sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; and (d) a nucleic acid fragment wherein one or more nucleotides in the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 is changed from that selected from the group consisting of the chosen sequence to a different nucleotide provided that no more than 15% of the nucleotides are so changed.

[0048] One aspect of the invention pertains to isolated nucleic acid molecules that encode NOVX polypeptides or biologically active portions thereof. Also included in the invention are nucleic acid fragments sufficient for use as hybridization probes to identify NOVX-encoding nucleic acids (e.g., NOVX mRNAs) and fragments for use as PCR primers for the amplification and/or mutation of NOVX nucleic acid molecules. As used herein, the term “nucleic acid molecule” is intended to include DNA molecules (e.g., cDNA or genomic DNA), RNA molecules (e.g., mRNA), analogs of the DNA or RNA generated using nucleotide analogs, and derivatives, fragments and homologs thereof. The nucleic acid molecule may be single-stranded or double-stranded, but preferably is comprised double-stranded DNA.

[0049] An NOVX nucleic acid can encode a mature NOVX polypeptide. As used herein, a “mature” form of a polypeptide or protein disclosed in the present invention is the product of a naturally occurring polypeptide or precursor form or proprotein. The naturally occurring polypeptide, precursor or proprotein includes, by way of nonlimiting example, the full-length gene product, encoded by the corresponding gene. Alternatively, it may be defined as the polypeptide, precursor or proprotein encoded by an ORF described herein. The product “mature” form arises, again by way of nonlimiting example, as a result of one or more naturally occurring processing steps as they may take place within the cell, or host cell, in which the gene product arises. Examples of such processing steps leading to a “mature” form of a polypeptide or protein include the cleavage of the N-terminal methionine residue encoded by the initiation codon of an ORF, or the proteolytic cleavage of a signal peptide or leader sequence. Thus a mature form arising from a precursor polypeptide or protein that has residues 1 to N, where residue 1 is the N-terminal methionine, would have residues 2 through N remaining after removal of the N-terminal methionine. Alternatively, a mature form arising from a precursor polypeptide or protein having residues 1 to N, in which an N-terminal signal sequence from residue 1 to residue M is cleaved, would have the residues from residue M+1 to residue N remaining. Further as used herein, a “mature” form of a polypeptide or protein may arise from a step of post-translational modification other than a proteolytic cleavage event. Such additional processes include, by way of non-limiting example, glycosylation, myristoylation or phosphorylation. In general, a mature polypeptide or protein may result from the operation of only one of these processes, or a combination of any of them.

[0050] The term “probes”, as utilized herein, refers to nucleic acid sequences of variable length, preferably between at least about 10 nucleotides (nt), 100 nt, or as many as approximately, e.g., 6,000 nt, depending upon the specific use. Probes are used in the detection of identical, similar, or complementary nucleic acid sequences. Longer length probes are generally obtained from a natural or recombinant source, are highly specific, and much slower to hybridize than shorter-length oligomer probes. Probes may be single- or double-stranded and designed to have specificity in PCR, membrane-based hybridization technologies, or ELISA-like technologies.

[0051] The term “isolated” nucleic acid molecule, as utilized herein, is one, which is separated from other nucleic acid molecules which are present in the natural source of the nucleic acid. Preferably, an “isolated” nucleic acid is free of sequences which naturally flank the nucleic acid (i.e., sequences located at the 5′- and 3′-termini of the nucleic acid) in the genomic DNA of the organism from which the nucleic acid is derived. For example, in various embodiments, the isolated NOVX nucleic acid molecules can contain less than about 5 kb, 4 kb, 3 kb, 2 kb, 1 kb, 0.5 kb or 0.1 kb of nucleotide sequences which naturally flank the nucleic acid molecule in genomic DNA of the cell/tissue from which the nucleic acid is derived (e.g., brain, heart, liver, spleen, etc.). Moreover, an “isolated” nucleic acid molecule, such as a cDNA molecule, can be substantially free of other cellular material or culture medium when produced by recombinant techniques, or of chemical precursors or other chemicals when chemically synthesized.

[0052] A nucleic acid molecule of the invention, e.g., a nucleic acid molecule having the nucleotide sequence SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or a complement of this aforementioned nucleotide sequence, can be isolated using standard molecular biology techniques and the sequence information provided herein. Using all or a portion of the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 as a hybridization probe, NOVX molecules can be isolated using standard hybridization and cloning techniques (e.g., as described in Sambrook, et al., (eds.), MOLECULAR CLONING: A LABORATORY MANUAL 2nd Ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 1989; and Ausubel, et al., (eds.), CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, John Wiley & Sons, New York, N.Y., 1993.)

[0053] A nucleic acid of the invention can be amplified using cDNA, mRNA or alternatively, genomic DNA, as a template and appropriate oligonucleotide primers according to standard PCR amplification techniques. The nucleic acid so amplified can be cloned into an appropriate vector and characterized by DNA sequence analysis. Furthermore, oligonucleotides corresponding to NOVX nucleotide sequences can be prepared by standard synthetic techniques, erg., using an automated DNA synthesizer.

[0054] As used herein, the term “oligonucleotide” refers to a series of linked nucleotide residues, which oligonucleotide has a sufficient number of nucleotide bases to be used in a PCR reaction. A short oligonucleotide sequence may be based on, or designed from, a genomic or cDNA sequence and is used to amplify, confirm, or reveal the presence of an identical, similar or complementary DNA or RNA in a particular cell or tissue. Oligonucleotides comprise portions of a nucleic acid sequence having about 10 nt, 50 nt, or 100 nt in length, preferably about 15 nt to 30 nt in length. In one embodiment of the invention, an oligonucleotide comprising a nucleic acid molecule less than 100 nt in length would further comprise at least 6 contiguous nucleotides SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or a complement thereof. Oligonucleotides may be chemically synthesized and may also be used as probes.

[0055] In another embodiment, an isolated nucleic acid molecule of the invention comprises a nucleic acid molecule that is a complement of the nucleotide from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or a portion of this nucleotide sequence (e.g., a fragment that can be used as a probe or primer or a fragment encoding a biologically-active portion of an NOVX polypeptide). A nucleic acid molecule that is complementary to the nucleotide sequence from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 is one that is sufficiently complementary to the nucleotide sequence from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 that it can hydrogen bond with little or no mismatches to the nucleotide sequence from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, thereby forming a stable duplex.

[0056] As used herein, the term “complementary” refers to Watson-Crick or Hoogsteen base pairing between nucleotides units of a nucleic acid molecule, and the term “binding” means the physical or chemical interaction between two polypeptides or compounds or associated polypeptides or compounds or combinations thereof. Binding includes ionic, non-ionic, van der Waals, hydrophobic interactions, and the like. A physical interaction can be either direct or indirect. Indirect interactions may be through or due to the effects of another polypeptide or compound. Direct binding refers to interactions that do not take place through, or due to, the effect of another polypeptide or compound, but instead are without other substantial chemical intermediates.

[0057] Fragments provided herein are defined as sequences of at least 6 (contiguous) nucleic acids or at least 4 (contiguous) amino acids, a length sufficient to allow for specific hybridization in the case of nucleic acids or for specific recognition of an epitope in the case of amino acids, respectively, and are at most some portion less than a full length sequence. Fragments may be derived from any contiguous portion of a nucleic acid or amino acid sequence of choice. Derivatives are nucleic acid sequences or amino acid sequences formed from the native compounds either directly or by modification or partial substitution. Analogs are nucleic acid sequences or amino acid sequences that have a structure similar to, but not identical to, the native compound but differs from it in respect to certain components or side chains. Analogs may be synthetic or from a different evolutionary origin and may have a similar or opposite metabolic activity compared to wild type. Homologs are nucleic acid sequences or amino acid sequences of a particular gene that are derived from different species.

[0058] A full-length NOVX clone is identified as containing an ATG translation start codon and an in-frame stop codon. Any disclosed NOVX nucleotide sequence lacking an ATG start codon therefore encodes a truncated C-terminal fragment of the respective NOVX polypeptide, and requires that the corresponding full-length cDNA extend in the 5′ direction of the disclosed sequence. Any disclosed NOVX nucleotide sequence lacking an in-frame stop codon similarly encodes a truncated N-terminal fragment of the respective NOVX polypeptide, and requires that the corresponding full-length cDNA extend in the 3′ direction of the disclosed sequence.

[0059] Derivatives and analogs may be full length or other than full length, if the derivative or analog contains a modified nucleic acid or amino acid, as described below. Derivatives or analogs of the nucleic acids or proteins of the invention include, but are not limited to, molecules comprising regions that are substantially homologous to the nucleic acids or proteins of the invention, in various embodiments, by at least about 70%, 80%, or 95% identity (with a preferred identity of 80-95%) over a nucleic acid or amino acid sequence of identical size or when compared to an aligned sequence in which the alignment is done by a computer homology program known in the art, or whose encoding nucleic acid is capable of hybridizing to the complement of a sequence encoding the aforementioned proteins under stringent, moderately stringent, or low stringent conditions. See e.g. Ausubel, et al., CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, John Wiley & Sons, New York, N.Y., 1993, and below.

[0060] A “homologous nucleic acid sequence” or “homologous amino acid sequence,” or variations thereof, refer to sequences characterized by a homology at the nucleotide level or amino acid level as discussed above. Homologous nucleotide sequences encode those sequences coding for isoforms of NOVX polypeptides. Isoforms can be expressed in different tissues of the same organism as a result of, for example, alternative splicing of RNA. Alternatively, isoforms can be encoded by different genes. In the invention, homologous nucleotide sequences include nucleotide sequences encoding for an NOVX polypeptide of species other than humans, including, but not limited to: vertebrates, and thus can include, e.g., frog, mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, cat cow, horse, and other organisms. Homologous nucleotide sequences also include, but are not limited to, naturally occurring allelic variations and mutations of the nucleotide sequences set forth herein. A homologous nucleotide sequence does not, however, include the exact nucleotide sequence encoding human NOVX protein. Homologous nucleic acid sequences include those nucleic acid sequences that encode conservative amino acid substitutions (see below) in SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, as well as a polypeptide possessing NOVX biological activity. Various biological activities of the NOVX proteins are described below.

[0061] An NOVX polypeptide is encoded by the open reading frame (“ORF”) of an NOVX nucleic acid. An ORF corresponds to a nucleotide sequence that could potentially be translated into a polypeptide. A stretch of nucleic acids comprising an ORF is uninterrupted by a stop codon. An ORF that represents the coding sequence for a full protein begins with an ATG “start” codon and terminates with one of the three “stop” codons, namely, TAA, TAG, or TGA. For the purposes of this invention, an ORF may be any part of a coding sequence, with or without a start codon, a stop codon, or both. For an ORF to be considered as a good candidate for coding for a bonafide cellular protein, a minimum size requirement is often set, e.g., a stretch of DNA that would encode a protein of 50 amino acids or more.

[0062] The nucleotide sequences determined from the cloning of the human NOVX genes allows for the generation of probes and primers designed for use in identifying and/or cloning NOVX homologues in other cell types, e.g. from other tissues, as well as NOVX homologues from other vertebrates. The probe/primer typically comprises substantially purified oligonucleotide. The oligonucleotide typically comprises a region of nucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to at least about 12, 25, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350 or 400 consecutive sense strand nucleotide sequence SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; or an anti-sense strand nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178.

[0063] Probes based on the human NOVX nucleotide sequences can be used to detect transcripts or genomic sequences encoding the same or homologous proteins. In various embodiments, the probe further comprises a label group attached thereto, e.g. the label group can be a radioisotope, a fluorescent compound, an enzyme, or an enzyme co-factor. Such probes can be used as a part of a diagnostic test kit for identifying cells or tissues which mis-express an NOVX protein, such as by measuring a level of an NOVX-encoding nucleic acid in a sample of cells from a subject e.g., detecting NOVX mRNA levels or determining whether a genomic NOVX gene has been mutated or deleted.

[0064] “A polypeptide having a biologically-active portion of an NOVX polypeptide” refers to polypeptides exhibiting activity similar, but not necessarily identical to, an activity of a polypeptide of the invention, including mature forms, as measured in a particular biological assay, with or without dose dependency. A nucleic acid fragment encoding a “biologically-active portion of NOVX” can be prepared by isolating a portion SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, that encodes a polypeptide having an NOVX biological activity (the biological activities of the NOVX proteins are described below), expressing the encoded portion of NOVX protein (e.g., by recombinant expression in vitro) and assessing the activity of the encoded portion of NOVX.

[0065] NOVX Nucleic Acid and Polypeptide Variants

[0066] The invention further encompasses nucleic acid molecules that differ from the nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 due to degeneracy of the genetic code and thus encode the same NOVX proteins as that encoded by the nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178. In another embodiment, an isolated nucleic acid molecule of the invention has a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein having an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178.

[0067] In addition to the human NOVX nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that DNA sequence polymorphisms that lead to changes in the amino acid sequences of the NOVX polypeptides may exist within a population (e.g., the human population). Such genetic polymorphism in the NOVX genes may exist among individuals within a population due to natural allelic variation. As used herein, the terms “gene” and “recombinant gene” refer to nucleic acid molecules comprising an open reading frame (ORF) encoding an NOVX protein, preferably a vertebrate NOVX protein. Such natural allelic variations can typically result in 1-5% variance in the nucleotide sequence of the NOVX genes. Any and all such nucleotide variations and resulting amino acid polymorphisms in the NOVX polypeptides, which are the result of natural allelic variation and that do not alter the functional activity of the NOVX polypeptides, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.

[0068] Moreover, nucleic acid molecules encoding NOVX proteins from other species, and thus that have a nucleotide sequence that differs from the human SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 are intended to be within the scope of the invention. Nucleic acid molecules corresponding to natural allelic variants and homologues of the NOVX cDNAs of the invention can be isolated based on their homology to the human NOVX nucleic acids disclosed herein using the human cDNAs, or a portion thereof, as a hybridization probe according to standard hybridization techniques under stringent hybridization conditions.

[0069] Accordingly, in another embodiment, an isolated nucleic acid molecule of the invention is at least 6 nucleotides in length and hybridizes under stringent conditions to the nucleic acid molecule comprising the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178. In another embodiment, the nucleic acid is at least 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1500, or 2000 or more nucleotides in length. In yet another embodiment, an isolated nucleic acid molecule of the invention hybridizes to the coding region. As used herein, the term “hybridizes under stringent conditions” is intended to describe conditions for hybridization and washing under which nucleotide sequences at least 60% homologous to each other typically remain hybridized to each other.

[0070] Homologs (i.e., nucleic acids encoding NOVX proteins derived from species other than human) or other related sequences (e.g., paralogs) can be obtained by low, moderate or high stringency hybridization with all or a portion of the particular human sequence as a probe using methods well known in the art for nucleic acid hybridization and cloning.

[0071] As used herein, the phrase “stringent hybridization conditions” refers to conditions under which a probe, primer or oligonucleotide will hybridize to its target sequence, but to no other sequences. Stringent conditions are sequence-dependent and will be different in different circumstances. Longer sequences hybridize specifically at higher temperatures than shorter sequences. Generally, stringent conditions are selected to be about 5° C. lower than the thermal melting point (Tm) for the specific sequence at a defined ionic strength and pH. The Tm is the temperature (under defined ionic strength, pH and nucleic acid concentration) at which 50% of the probes complementary to the target sequence hybridize to the target sequence at equilibrium. Since the target sequences are generally present at excess, at Tm, 50% of the probes are occupied at equilibrium. Typically, stringent conditions will be those in which the salt concentration is less than about 1.0 M sodium ion, typically about 0.01 to 1.0 M sodium ion (or other salts) at

[0072] pH 7.0 to 8.3 and the temperature is at least about 30° C. for short probes, primers or oligonucleotides (e.g., 10 nt to 50 nt) and at least about 60° C. for longer probes, primers and oligonucleotides. Stringent conditions may also be achieved with the addition of destabilizing agents, such as formamide.

[0073] Stringent conditions are known to those skilled in the art and can be found in Ausubel, et al., (eds.), CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, John Wiley & Sons, N.Y. (1989), 6.3.1-6.3.6. Preferably, the conditions are such that sequences at least about 65%, 70%, 75%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99% homologous to each other typically remain hybridized to each other. A non-limiting example of stringent hybridization conditions are hybridization in a high salt buffer comprising 6×SSC, 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 1 mM EDTA, 0.02% PVP, 0.02% Ficoll, 0.02% BSA, and 500 mg/ml denatured salmon sperm DNA at 65° C., followed by one or more washes in 0.2×SSC, 0.01% BSA at 50° C. An isolated nucleic acid molecule of the invention that hybridizes under stringent conditions to the sequences SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, corresponds to a naturally-occurring nucleic acid molecule. As used herein, a “naturally-occurring” nucleic acid molecule refers to an RNA or DNA molecule having a nucleotide sequence that occurs in nature (e.g., encodes a natural protein).

[0074] In a second embodiment, a nucleic acid sequence that is hybridizable to the nucleic acid molecule comprising the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or fragments, analogs or derivatives thereof, under conditions of moderate stringency is provided. A non-limiting example of moderate stringency hybridization conditions are hybridization in 6×SSC, 5× Denhardt's solution, 0.5% SDS and 100 mg/ml denatured salmon sperm DNA at 55° C., followed by one or more washes in 1×SSC, 0.1% SDS at 37° C. Other conditions of moderate stringency that may be used are well-known within the art. See, e.g., Ausubel, et al. (eds.), 1993, CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, John Wiley & Sons, NY, and Kriegler, 1990; GENE TRANSFER AND EXPRESSION, A LABORATORY MANUAL, Stockton Press, NY.

[0075] In a third embodiment, a nucleic acid that is hybridizable to the nucleic acid molecule comprising the nucleotide sequences SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or fragments, analogs or derivatives thereof, under conditions of low stringency, is provided. A non-limiting example of low stringency hybridization conditions are hybridization in 35% formamide, 5×SSC, 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 5 mM EDTA, 0.02% PVP, 0.02% Ficoll, 0.2% BSA, 100 mg/ml denatured salmon sperm DNA, 10% (wt/vol) dextran sulfate at 40° C., followed by one or more washes in 2×SSC, 25 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 5 mM EDTA, and 0.1% SDS at 50° C. Other conditions of low stringency that may be used are well known in the art (e.g., as employed for cross-species hybridizations). See, e.g., Ausubel, et al. (eds.), 1993, CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, John Wiley & Sons, NY, and Kriegler, 1990, GENE TRANSFER AND EXPRESSION, A LABORATORY MANUAL, Stockton Press, NY; Shilo and Weinberg, 1981. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 78: 6789-6792.

[0076] Conservative Mutations

[0077] In addition to naturally-occurring allelic variants of NOVX sequences that may exist in the population, the skilled artisan will further appreciate that changes can be introduced by mutation into the nucleotide sequences SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, thereby leading to changes in the amino acid sequences of the encoded NOVX proteins, without altering the functional ability of said NOVX proteins. For example, nucleotide substitutions leading to amino acid substitutions at “non-essential” amino acid residues can be made in the sequence SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178. A “non-essential” amino acid residue is a residue that can be altered from the wild-type sequences of the NOVX proteins without altering their biological activity, whereas an “essential” amino acid residue is required for such biological activity. For example, amino acid residues that are conserved among the NOVX proteins of the invention are predicted to be particularly non-amenable to alteration. Amino acids for which conservative substitutions can be made are well-known within the art.

[0078] Another aspect of the invention pertains to nucleic acid molecules encoding NOVX proteins that contain changes in amino acid residues that are not essential for activity. Such NOVX proteins differ in amino acid sequence from SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 yet retain biological activity. In one embodiment, the isolated nucleic acid molecule comprises a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein, wherein the protein comprises an amino acid sequence at least about 45% homologous to the amino acid sequences SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178. Preferably, the protein encoded by the nucleic acid molecule is at least about 60% homologous to SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; more preferably at least about 70% homologous SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; still more preferably at least about 80% homologous to SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; even more preferably at least about 90% homologous to SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178; and most preferably at least about 95% homologous to SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178.

[0079] An isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding an NOVX protein homologous to the protein of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 can be created by introducing one or more nucleotide substitutions, additions or deletions into the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, such that one or more amino acid substitutions, additions or deletions are introduced into the encoded protein.

[0080] Mutations can be introduced into SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 standard techniques, such as site-directed mutagenesis and PCR-mediated mutagenesis. Preferably, conservative amino acid substitutions are made at one or more predicted, non-essential amino acid residues. A “conservative amino acid substitution” is one in which the amino acid residue is replaced with an amino acid residue having a similar side chain. Families of amino acid residues having similar side chains have been defined within the art. These families include amino acids with basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), acidic side chains (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chains (e.g., glycine, asparagine, glutamine, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine), nonpolar side chains (e.g., alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan), beta-branched side chains (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine) and aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histidine). Thus, a predicted non-essential amino acid residue in the NOVX protein is replaced with another amino acid residue from the same side chain family. Alternatively, in another embodiment, mutations can be introduced randomly along all or part of an NOVX coding sequence, such as by saturation mutagenesis, and the resultant mutants can be screened for NOVX biological activity to identify mutants that retain activity. Following mutagenesis SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, the encoded protein can be expressed by any recombinant technology known in the art and the activity of the protein can be determined.

[0081] The relatedness of amino acid families may also be determined based on side chain interactions. Substituted amino acids may be fully conserved “strong” residues or fully conserved “weak” residues. The “strong” group of conserved amino acid residues may be any one of the following groups: STA, NEQK, NHQK, NDEQ, QHRK, MILV, MILF, HY, FYW, wherein the single letter amino acid codes are grouped by those amino acids that may be substituted for each other. Likewise, the “weak” group of conserved residues may be any one of the following: CSA, ATV, SAG, STNK, STPA, SGND, SNDEQK, NDEQHK, NEQHRK, HFY, wherein the letters within each group represent the single letter amino acid code.

[0082] In one embodiment, a mutant NOVX protein can be assayed for (i) the ability to form protein:protein interactions with other NOVX proteins, other cell-surface proteins, or biologically-active portions thereof, (ii) complex formation between a mutant NOVX protein and an NOVX ligand; or (iii) the ability of a mutant NOVX protein to bind to an intracellular target protein or biologically-active portion thereof; (e.g. avidin proteins).

[0083] In yet another embodiment, a mutant NOVX protein can be assayed for the ability to regulate a specific biological function (e.g., regulation of insulin release).

[0084] Antisense Nucleic Acids

[0085] Another aspect of the invention pertains to isolated antisense nucleic acid molecules that are hybridizable to or complementary to the nucleic acid molecule comprising the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or fragments, analogs or derivatives thereof. An “antisense” nucleic acid comprises a nucleotide sequence that is complementary to a “sense” nucleic acid encoding a protein (e.g., complementary to the coding strand of a double-stranded cDNA molecule or complementary to an mRNA sequence). In specific aspects, antisense nucleic acid molecules are provided that comprise a sequence complementary to at least about 10, 25, 50, 100, 250 or 500 nucleotides or an entire NOVX coding strand, or to only a portion thereof. Nucleic acid molecules encoding fragments, homologs, derivatives and analogs of an NOVX protein of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or antisense nucleic acids complementary to an NOVX nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, are additionally provided.

[0086] In one embodiment, an antisense nucleic acid molecule is antisense to a “coding region” of the coding strand of a nucleotide sequence encoding an NOVX protein. The term “coding region” refers to the region of the nucleotide sequence comprising codons which are translated into amino acid residues. In another embodiment, the antisense nucleic acid molecule is antisense to a “noncoding region” of the coding strand of a nucleotide sequence encoding the NOVX protein. The term “noncoding region” refers to 5′ and 3′ sequences which flank the coding region that are not translated into amino acids (i.e., also referred to as 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions).

[0087] Given the coding strand sequences encoding the NOVX protein disclosed herein, antisense nucleic acids of the invention can be designed according to the rules of Watson and Crick or Hoogsteen base pairing. The antisense nucleic acid molecule can be complementary to the entire coding region of NOVX mRNA, but more preferably is an oligonucleotide that is antisense to only a portion of the coding or noncoding region of NOVX mRNA. For example, the antisense oligonucleotide can be complementary to the region surrounding the translation start site of NOVX mRNA. An antisense oligonucleotide can be, for example, about 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 or 50 nucleotides in length. An antisense nucleic acid of the invention can be constructed using chemical synthesis or enzymatic ligation reactions using procedures known in the art. For example, an antisense nucleic acid (e.g., an antisense oligonucleotide) can be chemically synthesized using naturally-occurring nucleotides or variously modified nucleotides designed to increase the biological stability of the molecules or to increase the physical stability of the duplex formed between the antisense and sense nucleic acids (e.g., phosphorothioate derivatives and acridine substituted nucleotides can be used).

[0088] Examples of modified nucleotides that can be used to generate the antisense nucleic acid include: 5-fluorouracil, 5-bromouracil, 5-chlorouracil, 5-iodouracil, hypoxanthine, xanthine, 4-acetylcytosine, 5-(carboxyhydroxylmethyl) uracil, 5-carboxymethylaminomethyl-2-thiouridine, 5-carboxymethylaminomethyluracil, dihydrouracil, beta-D-galactosylqueosine, inosine, N6-isopentenyladenine, 1-methylguanine, 1-methylinosine, 2,2-dimethylguanine, 2-methyladenine, 2-methylguanine, 3-methylcytosine, 5-methylcytosine, N6-adenine, 7-methylguanine, 5-methylaminomethyluracil, 5-methoxyaminomethyl-2-thiouracil, beta-D-mannosylqueosine, 5′-methoxycarboxymethyluracil, 5-methoxyuracil, 2-methylthio-N-6-isopentenyladenine, uracil-5-oxyacetic acid (v), wybutoxosine, pseudouracil, queosine, 2-thiocytosine, 5-methyl-2-thiouracil, 2-thiouracil, 4-thiouracil, 5-methyluracil, uracil-5-oxyacetic acid methylester, uracil-5-oxyacetic acid (v), 5-methyl-2-thiouracil, 3-(3-amino-3-N-2-carboxypropyl) uracil, (acp3)w, and 2,6-diaminopurine. Alternatively, the antisense nucleic acid can be produced biologically using an expression vector into which a nucleic acid has been subcloned in an antisense orientation (i.e., RNA transcribed from the inserted nucleic acid will be of an antisense orientation to a target nucleic acid of interest, described further in the following subsection).

[0089] The antisense nucleic acid molecules of the invention are typically administered to a subject or generated in situ such that they hybridize with or bind to cellular mRNA and/or genomic DNA encoding an NOVX protein to thereby inhibit expression of the protein (e.g., by inhibiting transcription and/or translation). The hybridization can be by conventional nucleotide complementarity to form a stable duplex, or, for example, in the case of an antisense nucleic acid molecule that binds to DNA duplexes, through specific interactions in the major groove of the double helix. An example of a route of administration of antisense nucleic acid molecules of the invention includes direct injection at a tissue site. Alternatively, antisense nucleic acid molecules can be modified to target selected cells and then administered systemically. For example, for systemic administration, antisense molecules can be modified such that they specifically bind to receptors or antigens expressed on a selected cell surface (e.g., by linking the antisense nucleic acid molecules to peptides or antibodies that bind to cell surface receptors or antigens). The antisense nucleic acid molecules can also be delivered to cells using the vectors described herein. To achieve sufficient nucleic acid molecules, vector constructs in which the antisense nucleic acid molecule is placed under the control of a strong pol II or pol III promoter are preferred.

[0090] In yet another embodiment, the antisense nucleic acid molecule of the invention is an α-anomeric nucleic acid molecule. An α-anomeric nucleic acid molecule forms specific double-stranded hybrids with complementary RNA in which, contrary to the usual β-units, the strands run parallel to each other. See, e.g., Gaultier, et al., 1987. Nucl. Acids Res. 15: 6625-6641. The antisense nucleic acid molecule can also comprise a 2′-o-methylribonucleotide (See, e.g., Inoue, et al. 1987. Nucl. Acids Res. 15: 6131-6148) or a chimeric RNA-DNA analogue (See, e.g., Inoue, et al., 1987. FEBS Lett. 215: 327-330.

[0091] Ribozymes and PNA Moieties

[0092] Nucleic acid modifications include, by way of non-limiting example, modified bases, and nucleic acids whose sugar phosphate backbones are modified or derivatized. These modifications are carried out at least in part to enhance the chemical stability of the modified nucleic acid, such that they may be used, for example, as antisense binding nucleic acids in therapeutic applications in a subject.

[0093] In one embodiment, an antisense nucleic acid of the invention is a ribozyme. Ribozymes are catalytic RNA molecules with ribonuclease activity that are capable of cleaving a single-stranded nucleic acid, such as an mRNA, to which they have a complementary region. Thus, ribozymes (e.g., hammerhead ribozymes as described in Haselhoff and Gerlach 1988. Nature 334: 585-591) can be used to catalytically cleave NOVX mRNA transcripts to thereby inhibit translation of NOVX mRNA. A ribozyme having specificity for an NOVX-encoding nucleic acid can be designed based upon the nucleotide sequence of an NOVX cDNA disclosed herein (i.e., SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178). For example, a derivative of a Tetrahymena L-19 IVS RNA can be constructed in which the nucleotide sequence of the active site is complementary to the nucleotide sequence to be cleaved in an NOVX-encoding mRNA. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,987,071 to Cech, et al. and U.S. Pat. No. 5,116,742 to Cech, et al. NOVX mRNA can also be used to select a catalytic RNA having a specific ribonuclease activity from a pool of RNA molecules. See, e.g., Bartel et al., (1993) Science 261:1411-1418.

[0094] Alternatively, NOVX gene expression can be inhibited by targeting nucleotide sequences complementary to the regulatory region of the NOVX nucleic acid (e.g., the NOVX promoter and/or enhancers) to form triple helical structures that prevent transcription of the NOVX gene in target cells. See, e.g., Helene, 1991. Anticancer Drug Des. 6: 569-84; Helene, et al. 1992. Ann. N. Y Acad. Sci. 660: 27-36; Maher, 1992. Bioassays 14: 807-15.

[0095] In various embodiments, the NOVX nucleic acids can be modified at the base moiety, sugar moiety or phosphate backbone to improve, e.g., the stability, hybridization, or solubility of the molecule. For example, the deoxyribose phosphate backbone of the nucleic acids can be modified to generate peptide nucleic acids. See, e.g., Hyrup, et al., 1996. Bioorg Med Chem 4: 5-23. As used herein, the terms “peptide nucleic acids” or “PNAs” refer to nucleic acid mimics (e.g., DNA mimics) in which the deoxyribose phosphate backbone is replaced by a pseudopeptide backbone and only the four natural nucleobases are retained. The neutral backbone of PNAs has been shown to allow for specific hybridization to DNA and RNA under conditions of low ionic strength. The synthesis of PNA oligomers can be performed using standard solid phase peptide synthesis protocols as described in Hyrup, et al., 1996. supra; Perry-O'Keefe, et al., 1996. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 93:14670-14675.

[0096] PNAs of NOVX can be used in therapeutic and diagnostic applications. For example, PNAs can be used as antisense or antigene agents for sequence-specific modulation of gene expression by, e.g., inducing transcription or translation arrest or inhibiting replication. PNAs of NOVX can also be used, for example, in the analysis of single base pair mutations in a gene (e.g., PNA directed PCR clamping; as artificial restriction enzymes when used in combination with other enzymes, e.g., S1 nucleases (See, Hyrup, et al., 1996.supra); or as probes or primers for DNA sequence and hybridization (See, Hyrup, et al., 1996, supra; Perry-O'Keefe, et al., 1996. supra).

[0097] In another embodiment, PNAs of NOVX can be modified, e.g., to enhance their stability or cellular uptake, by attaching lipophilic or other helper groups to PNA, by the formation of PNA-DNA chimeras, or by the use of liposomes or other techniques of drug delivery known in the art. For example, PNA-DNA chimeras of NOVX can be generated that may combine the advantageous properties of PNA and DNA. Such chimeras allow DNA recognition enzymes (e.g., RNase H and DNA polymerases) to interact with the DNA portion while the PNA portion would provide high binding affinity and specificity. PNA-DNA chimeras can be linked using linkers of appropriate lengths selected in terms of base stacking, number of bonds between the nucleobases, and orientation (see, Hyrup, et al., 1996. supra). The synthesis of PNA-DNA chimeras can be performed as described in Hyrup, et al., 1996. supra and Finn, et al., 1996. Nucl Acids Res 24: 3357-3363. For example, a DNA chain can be synthesized on a solid support using standard phosphoramidite coupling chemistry, and modified nucleoside analogs, e.g., 5′-(4-methoxytrityl)amino-5′-deoxy-thymidine phosphoramidite, can be used between the PNA and the 5′ end of DNA. See, e.g., Mag, et al., 1989. Nucl Acid Res 17: 5973-5988. PNA monomers are then coupled in a stepwise manner to produce a chimeric molecule with a 5′ PNA segment and a 3′ DNA segment. See, e.g., Finn, et al., 1996. supra. Alternatively, chimeric molecules can be synthesized with a 5′ DNA segment and a 3′ PNA segment. See, e.g., Petersen, et al., 1975. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 5: 1119-11124.

[0098] In other embodiments, the oligonucleotide may include other appended groups such as peptides (e.g., for targeting host cell receptors in vivo), or agents facilitating transport across the cell membrane (see, e.g., Letsinger, et al., 1989. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86: 6553-6556; Lemaitre, et al., 1987. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 84: 648-652; PCT Publication No. WO88/09810) or the blood-brain barrier (see, e.g., PCT Publication No. WO 89/10134). In addition, oligonucleotides can be modified with hybridization triggered cleavage agents (see, e.g., Krol, et al., 1988. BioTechniques 6:958-976) or intercalating agents (see, e.g., Zon, 1988. Pharm. Res. 5: 539-549). To this end, the oligonucleotide may be conjugated to another molecule, e.g., a peptide, a hybridization triggered cross-linking agent, a transport agent, a hybridization-triggered cleavage agent, and the like.

[0099] NOVX Polypeptides

[0100] A polypeptide according to the invention includes a polypeptide including the amino acid sequence of NOVX polypeptides whose sequences are provided in SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178. The invention also includes a mutant or variant protein any of whose residues may be changed from the corresponding residues shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 while still encoding a protein that maintains its NOVX activities and physiological functions, or a functional fragment thereof.

[0101] In general, an NOVX variant that preserves NOVX-like function includes any variant in which residues at a particular position in the sequence have been substituted by other amino acids, and further include the possibility of inserting an additional residue or residues between two residues of the parent protein as well as the possibility of deleting one or more residues from the parent sequence. Any amino acid substitution, insertion, or deletion is encompassed by the invention. In favorable circumstances, the substitution is a conservative substitution as defined above.

[0102] One aspect of the invention pertains to isolated NOVX proteins, and biologically-active portions thereof, or derivatives, fragments, analogs or homologs thereof. Also provided are polypeptide fragments suitable for use as immunogens to raise anti-NOVX antibodies. In one embodiment, native NOVX proteins can be isolated from cells or tissue sources by an appropriate purification scheme using standard protein purification techniques. In another embodiment, NOVX proteins are produced by recombinant DNA techniques. Alternative to recombinant expression, an NOVX protein or polypeptide can be synthesized chemically using standard peptide synthesis techniques.

[0103] An “isolated” or “purified” polypeptide or protein or biologically-active portion thereof is substantially free of cellular material or other contaminating proteins from the cell or tissue source from which the NOVX protein is derived, or substantially free from chemical precursors or other chemicals when chemically synthesized. The language “substantially free of cellular material” includes preparations of NOVX proteins in which the protein is separated from cellular components of the cells from which it is isolated or recombinantly-produced. In one embodiment, the language “substantially free of cellular material” includes preparations of NOVX proteins having less than about 30% (by dry weight) of non-NOVX proteins (also referred to herein as a “contaminating protein”), more preferably less than about 20% of non-NOVX proteins, still more preferably less than about 10% of non-NOVX proteins, and most preferably less than about 5% of non-NOVX proteins. When the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof is recombinantly-produced, it is also preferably substantially free of culture medium, i.e., culture medium represents less than about 20%, more preferably less than about 10%, and most preferably less than about 5% of the volume of the NOVX protein preparation.

[0104] The language “substantially free of chemical precursors or other chemicals” includes preparations of NOVX proteins in which the protein is separated from chemical precursors or other chemicals that are involved in the synthesis of the protein. In one embodiment, the language “substantially free of chemical precursors or other chemicals” includes preparations of NOVX proteins having less than about 30% (by dry weight) of chemical precursors or non-NOVX chemicals, more preferably less than about 20% chemical precursors or non-NOVX chemicals, still more preferably less than about 10% chemical precursors or non-NOVX chemicals, and most preferably less than about 5% chemical precursors or non-NOVX chemicals.

[0105] Biologically-active portions of NOVX proteins include peptides comprising amino acid sequences sufficiently homologous to or derived from the amino acid sequences of the NOVX proteins (e.g., the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178) that include fewer amino acids than the full-length NOVX proteins, and exhibit at least one activity of an NOVX protein. Typically, biologically-active portions comprise a domain or motif with at least one activity of the NOVX protein. A biologically-active portion of an NOVX protein can be a polypeptide which is, for example, 10, 25, 50, 100 or more amino acid residues in length.

[0106] Moreover, other biologically-active portions, in which other regions of the protein are deleted, can be prepared by recombinant techniques and evaluated for one or more of the functional activities of a native NOVX protein.

[0107] In an embodiment, the NOVX protein has an amino acid sequence shown SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178. In other embodiments, the NOVX protein is substantially homologous to SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, and retains the functional activity of the protein of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, yet differs in amino acid sequence due to natural allelic variation or mutagenesis, as described in detail, below. Accordingly, in another embodiment, the NOVX protein is a protein that comprises an amino acid sequence at least about 45% homologous to the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, and retains the functional activity of the NOVX proteins of SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178.

[0108] Determining Homology Between Two or More Sequences

[0109] To determine the percent homology of two amino acid sequences or of two nucleic acids, the sequences are aligned for optimal comparison purposes (e.g., gaps can be introduced in the sequence of a first amino acid or nucleic acid sequence for optimal alignment with a second amino or nucleic acid sequence). The amino acid residues or nucleotides at corresponding amino acid positions or nucleotide positions are then compared. When a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same amino acid residue or nucleotide as the corresponding position in the second sequence, then the molecules are homologous at that position (i.e., as used herein amino acid or nucleic acid “homology” is equivalent to amino acid or nucleic acid “identity”).

[0110] The nucleic acid sequence homology may be determined as the degree of identity between two sequences. The homology may be determined using computer programs known in the art, such as GAP software provided in the GCG program package. See, Needleman and Wunsch, 1970. J Mol Biol 48: 443-453. Using GCG GAP software with the following settings for nucleic acid sequence comparison: GAP creation penalty of 5.0 and GAP extension penalty of 0.3, the coding region of the analogous nucleic acid sequences referred to above exhibits a degree of identity preferably of at least 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99%, with the CDS (encoding) part of the DNA from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178.

[0111] The term “sequence identity” refers to the degree to which two polynucleotide or polypeptide sequences are identical on a residue-by-residue basis over a particular region of comparison. The term “percentage of sequence identity” is calculated by comparing two optimally aligned sequences over that region of comparison, determining the number of positions at which the identical nucleic acid base (e.g., A, T, C, G, U, or I, in the case of nucleic acids) occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the region of comparison (i.e., the window size), and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. The term “substantial identity” as used herein denotes a characteristic of a polynucleotide sequence, wherein the polynucleotide comprises a sequence that has at least 80 percent sequence identity, preferably at least 85 percent identity and often 90 to 95 percent sequence identity, more usually at least 99 percent sequence identity as compared to a reference sequence over a comparison region.

[0112] Chimeric and Fusion Proteins

[0113] The invention also provides NOVX chimeric or fusion proteins. As used herein, an A NOVX “chimeric protein” or “fusion protein” comprises an NOVX polypeptide operatively-linked to a non-NOVX polypeptide. An “NOVX polypeptide” refers to a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence corresponding to an NOVX protein SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, whereas a “non-NOVX polypeptide” refers to a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence corresponding to a protein that is not substantially homologous to the NOVX protein, e.g., a protein that is different from the NOVX protein and that is derived from the same or a different organism. Within an NOVX fusion protein the NOVX polypeptide can correspond to all or a portion of an NOVX protein. In one embodiment, an NOVX fusion protein comprises at least one biologically-active portion of an NOVX protein. In another embodiment, an NOVX fusion protein comprises at least two biologically-active portions of an NOVX protein. In yet another embodiment, an NOVX fusion protein comprises at least three biologically-active portions of an NOVX protein. Within the fusion protein, the term “operatively-linked” is intended to indicate that the NOVX polypeptide and the non-NOVX polypeptide are fused in-frame with one another. The non-NOVX polypeptide can be fused to the N-terminus or C-terminus of the NOVX polypeptide.

[0114] In one embodiment, the fusion protein is a GST-NOVX fusion protein in which the NOVX sequences are fused to the C-terminus of the GST (glutathione S-transferase) sequences. Such fusion proteins can facilitate the purification of recombinant NOVX polypeptides.

[0115] In another embodiment, the fusion protein is an NOVX protein containing a heterologous signal sequence at its N-terminus. In certain host cells (e.g., mammalian host cells), expression and/or secretion of NOVX can be increased through use of a heterologous signal sequence.

[0116] In yet another embodiment, the fusion protein is an NOVX-immunoglobulin fusion protein in which the NOVX sequences are fused to sequences derived from a member of the immunoglobulin protein family. The NOVX-immunoglobulin fusion proteins of the invention can be incorporated into pharmaceutical compositions and administered to a subject to inhibit an interaction between an NOVX ligand and an NOVX protein on the surface of a cell, to thereby suppress NOVX-mediated signal transduction in vivo. The NOVX-immunoglobulin fusion proteins can be used to affect the bioavailability of an NOVX cognate ligand. Inhibition of the NOVX ligand/NOVX interaction may be useful therapeutically for both the treatment of proliferative and differentiative disorders, as well as modulating (e.g. promoting or inhibiting) cell survival. Moreover, the NOVX-immunoglobulin fusion proteins of the invention can be used as immunogens to produce anti-NOVX antibodies in a subject, to purify NOVX ligands, and in screening assays to identify molecules that inhibit the interaction of NOVX with an NOVX ligand.

[0117] An NOVX chimeric or fusion protein of the invention can be produced by standard recombinant DNA techniques. For example, DNA fragments coding for the different polypeptide sequences are ligated together in-frame in accordance with conventional techniques, e.g., by employing blunt-ended or stagger-ended termini for ligation, restriction enzyme digestion to provide for appropriate termini, filling-in of cohesive ends as appropriate, alkaline phosphatase treatment to avoid undesirable joining, and enzymatic ligation. In another embodiment, the fusion gene can be synthesized by conventional techniques including automated DNA synthesizers. Alternatively, PCR amplification of gene fragments can be carried out using anchor primers that give rise to complementary overhangs between two consecutive gene fragments that can subsequently be annealed and reamplified to generate a chimeric gene sequence (see, e.g., Ausubel, et al. (eds.) CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, John Wiley & Sons, 1992). Moreover, many expression vectors are commercially available that already encode a fusion moiety (e.g., a GST polypeptide). An NOVX-encoding nucleic acid can be cloned into such an expression vector such that the fusion moiety is linked in-frame to the NOVX protein.

[0118] NOVX Agonists and Antagonists

[0119] The invention also pertains to variants of the NOVX proteins that function as either NOVX agonists (i.e., mimetics) or as NOVX antagonists. Variants of the NOVX protein can be generated by mutagenesis (e.g., discrete point mutation or truncation of the NOVX protein). An agonist of the NOVX protein can retain substantially the same, or a subset of, the biological activities of the naturally occurring form of the NOVX protein. An antagonist of the NOVX protein can inhibit one or more of the activities of the naturally occurring form of the NOVX protein by, for example, competitively binding to a downstream or upstream member of a cellular signaling cascade which includes the NOVX protein. Thus, specific biological effects can be elicited by treatment with a variant of limited function. In one embodiment, treatment of a subject with a variant having a subset of the biological activities of the naturally occurring form of the protein has fewer side effects in a subject relative to treatment with the naturally occurring form of the NOVX proteins.

[0120] Variants of the NOVX proteins that function as either NOVX agonists (i.e., mimetics) or as NOVX antagonists can be identified by screening combinatorial libraries of mutants (e.g., truncation mutants) of the NOVX proteins for NOVX protein agonist or antagonist activity. In one embodiment, a variegated library of NOVX variants is generated by combinatorial mutagenesis at the nucleic acid level and is encoded by a variegated gene library. A variegated library of NOVX variants can be produced by, for example, enzymatically ligating a mixture of synthetic oligonucleotides into gene sequences such that a degenerate set of potential NOVX sequences is expressible as individual polypeptides, or alternatively, as a set of larger fusion proteins (e.g., for phage display) containing the set of NOVX sequences therein. There are a variety of methods which can be used to produce libraries of potential NOVX variants from a degenerate oligonucleotide sequence. Chemical synthesis of a degenerate gene sequence can be performed in an automatic DNA synthesizer, and the synthetic gene then ligated into an appropriate expression vector. Use of a degenerate set of genes allows for the provision, in one mixture, of all of the sequences encoding the desired set of potential NOVX sequences. Methods for synthesizing degenerate oligonucleotides are well-known within the art. See, e.g., Narang, 1983. Tetrahedron 39: 3; Itakura, et al., 1984. Annu. Rev. Biochem. 53: 323; Itakura, et al., 1984. Science 198: 1056; Ike, et al., 1983. Nucl. Acids Res. 11: 477.

[0121] Polypeptide Libraries

[0122] In addition, libraries of fragments of the NOVX protein coding sequences can be used to generate a variegated population of NOVX fragments for screening and subsequent selection of variants of an NOVX protein. In one embodiment, a library of coding sequence fragments can be generated by treating a double stranded PCR fragment of an NOVX coding sequence with a nuclease under conditions wherein nicking occurs only about once per molecule, denaturing the double stranded DNA, renaturing the DNA to form double-stranded DNA that can include sense/antisense pairs from different nicked products, removing single stranded portions from reformed duplexes by treatment with S1 nuclease, and ligating the resulting fragment library into an expression vector. By this method, expression libraries can be derived which encodes N-terminal and internal fragments of various sizes of the NOVX proteins.

[0123] Various techniques are known in the art for screening gene products of combinatorial libraries made by point mutations or truncation, and for screening cDNA libraries for gene products having a selected property. Such techniques are adaptable for rapid screening of the gene libraries generated by the combinatorial mutagenesis of NOVX proteins. The most widely used techniques, which are amenable to high throughput analysis, for screening large gene libraries typically include cloning the gene library into replicable expression vectors, transforming appropriate cells with the resulting library of vectors, and expressing the combinatorial genes under conditions in which detection of a desired activity facilitates isolation of the vector encoding the gene whose product was detected. Recursive ensemble mutagenesis (REM), a new technique that enhances the frequency of functional mutants in the libraries, can be used in combination with the screening assays to identify NOVX variants. See, e.g., Arkin and Yourvan, 1992. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 7811-7815; Delgrave, et al., 1993. Protein Engineering 6:327-331.

[0124] NOVX Antibodies

[0125] The term “antibody” as used herein refers to immunoglobulin molecules and immunologically active portions of immunoglobulin (Ig) molecules, i.e., molecules that contain an antigen binding site that specifically binds (immunoreacts with) an antigen. Such antibodies include, but are not limited to, polyclonal, monoclonal, chimeric, single chain, Fab, Fab, and F(ab)2 fragments, and an Fab expression library. In general, antibody molecules obtained from humans relates to any of the classes IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE and IgD, which differ from one another by the nature of the heavy chain present in the molecule. Certain classes have subclasses as well, such as IgG1, IgG2, and others. Furthermore, in humans, the light chain may be a kappa chain or a lambda chain. Reference herein to antibodies includes a reference to all such classes, subclasses and types of human antibody species.

[0126] An isolated protein of the invention intended to serve as an antigen, or a portion or fragment thereof, can be used as an immunogen to generate antibodies that immunospecifically bind the antigen, using standard techniques for polyclonal and monoclonal antibody preparation. The full-length protein can be used or, alternatively, the invention provides antigenic peptide fragments of the antigen for use as immunogens. An antigenic peptide fragment comprises at least 6 amino acid residues of the amino acid sequence of the full length protein, such as an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2n, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, and encompasses an epitope thereof such that an antibody raised against the peptide forms a specific immune complex with the full length protein or with any fragment that contains the epitope. Preferably, the antigenic peptide comprises at least 10 amino acid residues, or at least 15 amino acid residues, or at least 20 amino acid residues, or at least 30 amino acid residues. Preferred epitopes encompassed by the antigenic peptide are regions of the protein that are located on its surface; commonly these are hydrophilic regions.

[0127] In certain embodiments of the invention, at least one epitope encompassed by the antigenic peptide is a region of NOVX that is located on the surface of the protein, e.g., a hydrophilic region. A hydrophobicity analysis of the human NOVX protein sequence will indicate which regions of a NOVX polypeptide are particularly hydrophilic and, therefore, are likely to encode surface residues useful for targeting antibody production. As a means for targeting antibody production, hydropathy plots showing regions of hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity may be generated by any method well known in the art, including, for example, the Kyte Doolittle or the Hopp Woods methods, either with or without Fourier transformation. See, e.g., Hopp and Woods, 1981, Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 78: 3824-3828; Kyte and Doolittle 1982, J. Mol. Biol. 157: 105-142, each incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Antibodies that are specific for one or more domains within an antigenic protein, or derivatives, fragments, analogs or homologs thereof, are also provided herein.

[0128] A protein of the invention, or a derivative, fragment, analog, homolog or ortholog thereof, may be utilized as an immunogen in the generation of antibodies that immunospecifically bind these protein components.

[0129] Various procedures known within the art may be used for the production of polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies directed against a protein of the invention, or against derivatives, fragments, analogs homologs or orthologs thereof (see, for example, Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Harlow E, and Lane D, 1988, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., incorporated herein by reference). Some of these antibodies are discussed below.

[0130] Polyclonal Antibodies

[0131] For the production of polyclonal antibodies, various suitable host animals (e.g., rabbit, goat, mouse or other mammal) may be immunized by one or more injections with the native protein, a synthetic variant thereof, or a derivative of the foregoing. An appropriate immunogenic preparation can contain, for example, the naturally occurring immunogenic protein, a chemically synthesized polypeptide representing the immunogenic protein, or a recombinantly expressed immunogenic protein. Furthermore, the protein may be conjugated to a second protein known to be immunogenic in the mammal being immunized. Examples of such immunogenic proteins include but are not limited to keyhole limpet hemocyanin, serum albumin, bovine thyroglobulin, and soybean trypsin inhibitor. The preparation can further include an adjuvant. Various adjuvants used to increase the immunological response include, but are not limited to, Freund's (complete and incomplete), mineral gels (e.g., aluminum hydroxide), surface active substances (e.g., lysolecithin, pluronic polyols, polyanions, peptides, oil emulsions, dinitrophenol, etc.), adjuvants usable in humans such as Bacille Calmette-Guerin and Corynebacterium parvum, or similar immunostimulatory agents. Additional examples of adjuvants which can be employed include MPL-TDM adjuvant (monophosphoryl Lipid A, synthetic trehalose dicorynomycolate).

[0132] The polyclonal antibody molecules directed against the immunogenic protein can be isolated from the mammal (e.g., from the blood) and further purified by well known techniques, such as affinity chromatography using protein A or protein G, which provide primarily the IgG fraction of immune serum. Subsequently, or alternatively, the specific antigen which is the target of the immunoglobulin sought, or an epitope thereof, may be immobilized on a column to purify the immune specific antibody by immunoaffinity chromatography. Purification of immunoglobulins is discussed, for example, by D. Wilkinson (The Scientist, published by The Scientist, Inc., Philadelphia Pa., Vol. 14, No. 8 (Apr. 17, 2000), pp. 25-28).

[0133] Monoclonal Antibodies

[0134] The term “monoclonal antibody” (MAb) or “monoclonal antibody composition”, as used herein, refers to a population of antibody molecules that contain only one molecular species of antibody molecule consisting of a unique light chain gene product and a unique heavy chain gene product. In particular, the complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of the monoclonal antibody are identical in all the molecules of the population. MAbs thus contain an antigen binding site capable of immunoreacting with a particular epitope of the antigen characterized by a unique binding affinity for it.

[0135] Monoclonal antibodies can be prepared using hybridoma methods, such as those described by Kohler and Milstein, Nature, 256:495 (1975). In a hybridoma method, a mouse, hamster, or other appropriate host animal, is typically immunized with an immunizing agent to elicit lymphocytes that produce or are capable of producing antibodies that will specifically bind to the immunizing agent. Alternatively, the lymphocytes can be immunized in vitro.

[0136] The immunizing agent will typically include the protein antigen, a fragment thereof or a fusion protein thereof. Generally, either peripheral blood lymphocytes are used if cells of human origin are desired, or spleen cells or lymph node cells are used if non-human mammalian sources are desired. The lymphocytes are then fused with an immortalized cell line using a suitable fusing agent, such as polyethylene glycol, to form a hybridoma cell [Goding, Monoclonal Antibodies: Principles and Practice, Academic Press, (1986) pp. 59-103]. Immortalized cell lines are usually transformed mammalian cells, particularly myeloma cells of rodent, bovine and human origin. Usually, rat or mouse myeloma cell lines are employed. The hybridoma cells can be cultured in a suitable culture medium that preferably contains one or more substances that inhibit the growth or survival of the unfused, immortalized cells. For example, if the parental cells lack the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT or HPRT), the culture medium for the hybridomas typically will include hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine (“HAT medium”), which substances prevent the growth of HGPRT-deficient cells. Preferred immortalized cell lines are those that fuse efficiently, support stable high level expression of antibody by the selected antibody-producing cells, and are sensitive to a medium such as HAT medium. More preferred immortalized cell lines are murine myeloma lines, which can be obtained, for instance, from the Salk Institute Cell Distribution Center, San Diego, Calif. and the American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, Va. Human myeloma and mouse-human heteromyeloma cell lines also have been described for the production of human monoclonal antibodies [Kozbor, J. Immunol., 133:3001 (1984); Brodeur et al., Monoclonal Antibody Production Techniques and Applications, Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, (1987) pp. 51-63].

[0137] The culture medium in which the hybridoma cells are cultured can then be assayed for the presence of monoclonal antibodies directed against the antigen. Preferably, the binding specificity of monoclonal antibodies produced by the hybridoma cells is determined by immunoprecipitation or by an in vitro binding assay, such as radioimmunoassay (RIA) or enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA). Such techniques and assays are known in the art. The binding affinity of the monoclonal antibody can, for example, be determined by the Scatchard analysis of Munson and Pollard, Anal. Biochem., 107:220 (1980). It is an objective, especially important in therapeutic applications of monoclonal antibodies, to identify antibodies having a high degree of specificity and a high binding affinity for the target antigen.

[0138] After the desired hybridoma cells are identified, the clones can be subcloned by limiting dilution procedures and grown by standard methods (Goding, 1986). Suitable culture media for this purpose include, for example, Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium and RPMI-1640 medium. Alternatively, the hybridoma cells can be grown in vivo as ascites in a mammal.

[0139] The monoclonal antibodies secreted by the subclones can be isolated or purified from the culture medium or ascites fluid by conventional immunoglobulin purification procedures such as, for example, protein A-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite chromatography, gel electrophoresis, dialysis, or affinity chromatography.

[0140] The monoclonal antibodies can also be made by recombinant DNA methods, such as those described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567. DNA encoding the monoclonal antibodies of the invention can be readily isolated and sequenced using conventional procedures (e.g., by using oligonucleotide probes that are capable of binding specifically to genes encoding the heavy and light chains of murine antibodies). The hybridoma cells of the invention serve as a preferred source of such DNA. Once isolated, the DNA can be placed into expression vectors, which are then transfected into host cells such as simian COS cells, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, or myeloma cells that do not otherwise produce immunoglobulin protein, to obtain the synthesis of monoclonal antibodies in the recombinant host cells. The DNA also can be modified, for example, by substituting the coding sequence for human heavy and light chain constant domains in place of the homologous murine sequences (U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567; Morrison, Nature 368, 812-13 (1994)) or by covalently joining to the immunoglobulin coding sequence all or part of the coding sequence for a non-immunoglobulin polypeptide. Such a non-immunoglobulin polypeptide can be substituted for the constant domains of an antibody of the invention, or can be substituted for the variable domains of one antigen-combining site of an antibody of the invention to create a chimeric bivalent antibody.

[0141] Humanized Antibodies

[0142] The antibodies directed against the protein antigens of the invention can further comprise humanized antibodies or human antibodies. These antibodies are suitable for administration to humans without engendering an immune response by the human against the administered immunoglobulin. Humanized forms of antibodies are chimeric immunoglobulins, immunoglobulin chains or fragments thereof (such as Fv, Fab, Fab′, F(ab′)2 or other antigen-binding subsequences of antibodies) that are principally comprised of the sequence of a human immunoglobulin, and contain minimal sequence derived from a non-human immunoglobulin. Humanization can be performed following the method of Winter and co-workers (Jones et al., Nature, 321:522-525 (1986); Riechmann et al., Nature, 332:323-327 (1988); Verhoeyen et al., Science, 239:1534-1536 (1988)), by substituting rodent CDRs or CDR sequences for the corresponding sequences of a human antibody. (See also U.S. Pat. No. 5,225,539.) In some instances, Fv framework residues of the human immunoglobulin are replaced by corresponding non-human residues. Humanized antibodies can also comprise residues which are found neither in the recipient antibody nor in the imported CDR or framework sequences. In general, the humanized antibody will comprise substantially all of at least one, and typically two, variable domains, in which all or substantially all of the CDR regions correspond to those of a non-human immunoglobulin and all or substantially all of the framework regions are those of a human immunoglobulin consensus sequence. The humanized antibody optimally also will comprise at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region (Fc), typically that of a human immunoglobulin (Jones et al., 1986; Riechmann et al., 1988; and Presta, Curr. Op. Struct. Biol., 2:593-596 (1992)).

[0143] Human Antibodies

[0144] Fully human antibodies essentially relate to antibody molecules in which the entire sequence of both the light chain and the heavy chain, including the CDRs, arise from human genes. Such antibodies are termed “human antibodies”, or “fully human antibodies” herein. Human monoclonal antibodies can be prepared by the trioma technique; the human B-cell hybridoma technique (see Kozbor, et al., 1983 Immunol Today 4: 72) and the EBV hybridoma technique to produce human monoclonal antibodies (see Cole, et al., 1985 In: MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AND CANCER THERAPY, Alan R. Liss, Inc., pp. 77-96). Human monoclonal antibodies may be utilized in the practice of the present invention and may be produced by using human hybridomas (see Cote, et al., 1983. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 80: 2026-2030) or by transforming human B-cells with Epstein Barr Virus in vitro (see Cole, et al., 1985 In: MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AND CANCER THERAPY, Alan R. Liss, Inc., pp. 77-96).

[0145] In addition, human antibodies can also be produced using additional techniques, including phage display libraries (Hoogenboom and Winter, J. Mol. Biol., 227:381 (1991); Marks et al., J. Mol. Biol., 222:581 (1991)). Similarly, human antibodies can be made by introducing human immunoglobulin loci into transgenic animals, e.g., mice in which the endogenous immunoglobulin genes have been partially or completely inactivated. Upon challenge, human antibody production is observed, which closely resembles that seen in humans in all respects, including gene rearrangement, assembly, and antibody repertoire. This approach is described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,545,807; 5,545,806; 5,569,825; 5,625,126; 5,633,425; 5,661,016, and in Marks et al. (Bio/Technology 10, 779-783 (1992)); Lonberg et al. Nature 368 856-859 (1994)); Morrison (Nature 368, 812-13 (1994)); Fishwild et al, (Nature Biotechnology 1, 845-51 (1996)); Neuberger (Nature Biotechnology 14, 826 (1996)); and Lonberg and Huszar (Intern. Rev. Immunol. 13 65-93 (1995)).

[0146] Human antibodies may additionally be produced using transgenic nonhuman animals which are modified so as to produce fully human antibodies rather than the animal's endogenous antibodies in response to challenge by an antigen. (See PCT publication WO94/02602). The endogenous genes encoding the heavy and light immunoglobulin chains in the nonhuman host have been incapacitated, and active loci encoding human heavy and light chain immunoglobulins are inserted into the host's genome. The human genes are incorporated, for example, using yeast artificial chromosomes containing the requisite human DNA segments. An animal which provides all the desired modifications is then obtained as progeny by crossbreeding intermediate transgenic animals containing fewer than the full complement of the modifications. The preferred embodiment of such a nonhuman animal is a mouse, and is termed the Xenomouse™ as disclosed in PCT publications WO 96/33735 and WO 96/34096. This animal produces B cells which secrete fully human immunoglobulins. The antibodies can be obtained directly from the animal after immunization with an immunogen of interest, as, for example, a preparation of a polyclonal antibody, or alternatively from immortalized B cells derived from the animal, such as hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies. Additionally, the genes encoding the immunoglobulins with human variable regions can be recovered and expressed to obtain the antibodies directly, or can be further modified to obtain analogs of antibodies such as, for example, single chain Fv molecules.

[0147] An example of a method of producing a nonhuman host, exemplified as a mouse, lacking expression of an endogenous immunoglobulin heavy chain is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,939,598. It can be obtained by a method including deleting the J segment genes from at least one endogenous heavy chain locus in an embryonic stem cell to prevent rearrangement of the locus and to prevent formation of a transcript of a rearranged immunoglobulin heavy chain locus, the deletion being effected by a targeting vector containing a gene encoding a selectable marker; and producing from the embryonic stem cell a transgenic mouse whose somatic and germ cells contain the gene encoding the selectable marker.

[0148] A method for producing an antibody of interest, such as a human antibody, is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,916,771. It includes introducing an expression vector that contains a nucleotide sequence encoding a heavy chain into one mammalian host cell in culture, introducing an expression vector containing a nucleotide sequence encoding a light chain into another mammalian host cell, and fusing the two cells to form a hybrid cell. The hybrid cell expresses an antibody containing the heavy chain and the light chain.

[0149] In a further improvement on this procedure, a method for identifying a clinically relevant epitope on an immunogen, and a correlative method for selecting an antibody that binds immunospecifically to the relevant epitope with high affinity, are disclosed in PCT publication WO 99/53049.

[0150] Fab Fragments and Single Chain Antibodies

[0151] According to the invention, techniques can be adapted for the production of single-chain antibodies specific to an antigenic protein of the invention (see e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,946,778). In addition, methods can be adapted for the construction of Fab expression libraries (see e.g., Huse, et al., 1989 Science 246: 1275-1281) to allow rapid and effective identification of monoclonal Fab fragments with the desired specificity for a protein or derivatives, fragments, analogs or homologs thereof. Antibody fragments that contain the idiotypes to a protein antigen may be produced by techniques known in the art including, but not limited to: (i) an F(ab′)2 fragment produced by pepsin digestion of an antibody molecule; (ii) an Fab fragment generated by reducing the disulfide bridges of an F(ab′)2 fragment; (iii) an Fab fragment generated by the treatment of the antibody molecule with papain and a reducing agent and (iv) Fv fragments.

[0152] Bispecific Antibodies

[0153] Bispecific antibodies are monoclonal, preferably human or humanized, antibodies that have binding specificities for at least two different antigens. In the present case, one of the binding specificities is for an antigenic protein of the invention. The second binding target is any other antigen, and advantageously is a cell-surface protein or receptor or receptor subunit.

[0154] Methods for making bispecific antibodies are known in the art. Traditionally, the recombinant production of bispecific antibodies is based on the co-expression of two immunoglobulin heavy-chain/light-chain pairs, where the two heavy chains have different specificities (Milstein and Cuello, Nature, 305:537-539 (1983)). Because of the random assortment of immunoglobulin heavy and light chains, these hybridomas (quadromas) produce a potential mixture of ten different antibody molecules, of which only one has the correct bispecific structure. The purification of the correct molecule is usually accomplished by affinity chromatography steps. Similar procedures are disclosed in WO 93/08829, published May 13, 1993, and in Traunecker et al., EMBO J. 10:3655-3659 (1991).

[0155] Antibody variable domains with the desired binding specificities (antibody-antigen combining sites) can be fused to immunoglobulin constant domain sequences. The fusion preferably is with an immunoglobulin heavy-chain constant domain, comprising at least part of the hinge, CH2, and CH3 regions. It is preferred to have the first heavy-chain constant region (CH1) containing the site necessary for light-chain binding present in at least one of the fusions. DNAs encoding the immunoglobulin heavy-chain fusions and, if desired, the immunoglobulin light chain, are inserted into separate expression vectors, and are co-transfected into a suitable host organism. For further details of generating bispecific antibodies see, for example, Suresh et al., Methods in Enzymology, 121:210 (1986).

[0156] According to another approach described in WO 96/27011, the interface between a pair of antibody molecules can be engineered to maximize the percentage of heterodimers which are recovered from recombinant cell culture. The preferred interface comprises at least a part of the CH3 region of an antibody constant domain. In this method, one or more small amino acid side chains from the interface of the first antibody molecule are replaced with larger side chains (e.g. tyrosine or tryptophan). Compensatory “cavities” of identical or similar size to the large side chain(s) are created on the interface of the second antibody molecule by replacing large amino acid side chains with smaller ones (e.g. alanine or threonine). This provides a mechanism for increasing the yield of the heterodimer over other unwanted end-products such as homodimers.

[0157] Bispecific antibodies can be prepared as full length antibodies or antibody fragments (e.g. F(ab′)2 bispecific antibodies). Techniques for generating bispecific antibodies from antibody fragments have been described in the literature. For example, bispecific antibodies can be prepared using chemical linkage. Brennan et al., Science 229:81 (1985) describe a procedure wherein intact antibodies are proteolytically cleaved to generate F(ab′)2 fragments. These fragments are reduced in the presence of the dithiol complexing agent sodium arsenite to stabilize vicinal dithiols and prevent intermolecular disulfide formation. The Fab′ fragments generated are then converted to thionitrobenzoate (TNB) derivatives. One of the Fab′-TNB derivatives is then reconverted to the Fab′-thiol by reduction with mercaptoethylamine and is mixed with an equimolar amount of the other Fab′-TNB derivative to form the bispecific antibody. The bispecific antibodies produced can be used as agents for the selective immobilization of enzymes.

[0158] Additionally, Fab′ fragments can be directly recovered from E. coli and chemically coupled to form bispecific antibodies. Shalaby et al., J. Exp. Med. 175:217-225 (1992) describe the production of a fully humanized bispecific antibody F(ab′)2 molecule. Each Fab′ fragment was separately secreted from E. coli and subjected to directed chemical coupling in vitro to form the bispecific antibody. The bispecific antibody thus formed was able to bind to cells overexpressing the ErbB2 receptor and normal human T cells, as well as trigger the lytic activity of human cytotoxic lymphocytes against human breast tumor targets.

[0159] Various techniques for making and isolating bispecific antibody fragments directly from recombinant cell culture have also been described. For example, bispecific antibodies have been produced using leucine zippers. Kostelny et al., J. Immunol. 148(5):1547-1553 (1992). The leucine zipper peptides from the Fos and Jun proteins were linked to the Fab′ portions of two different antibodies by gene fusion. The antibody homodimers were reduced at the hinge region to form monomers and then re-oxidized to form the antibody heterodimers. This method can also be utilized for the production of antibody homodimers. The “diabody” technology described by Hollinger et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:6444-6448 (1993) has provided an alternative mechanism for making bispecific antibody fragments. The fragments comprise a heavy-chain variable domain (VH) connected to a light-chain variable domain (VL) by a linker which is too short to allow pairing between the two domains on the same chain. Accordingly, the VH and VL domains of one fragment are forced to pair with the complementary VL and VH domains of another fragment, thereby forming two antigen-binding sites. Another strategy for making bispecific antibody fragments by the use of single-chain Fv (sFv) dimers has also been reported. See, Gruber et al., J. Immunol. 152:5368 (1994).

[0160] Antibodies with more than two valencies are contemplated. For example, trispecific antibodies can be prepared. Tutt et al., J. Immunol. 147:60 (1991).

[0161] Exemplary bispecific antibodies can bind to two different epitopes, at least one of which originates in the protein antigen of the invention. Alternatively, an anti-antigenic arm of an immunoglobulin molecule can be combined with an arm which binds to a triggering molecule on a leukocyte such as a T-cell receptor molecule (e.g. CD2, CD3, CD28, or B7), or Fc receptors for IgG (FcγR), such as FcγRI (CD64), FcγRII (CD32) and FcγRIII (CD16) so as to focus cellular defense mechanisms to the cell expressing the particular antigen. Bispecific antibodies can also be used to direct cytotoxic agents to cells which express a particular antigen. These antibodies possess an antigen-binding arm and an arm which binds a cytotoxic agent or a radionuclide chelator, such as EOTUBE, DPTA, DOTA, or TETA. Another bispecific antibody of interest binds the protein antigen described herein and further binds tissue factor (TF).

[0162] Heteroconjugate Antibodies

[0163] Heteroconjugate antibodies are also within the scope of the present invention. Heteroconjugate antibodies are composed of two covalently joined antibodies. Such antibodies have, for example, been proposed to target immune system cells to unwanted cells (U.S. Pat. No. 4,676,980), and for treatment of HIV infection (WO 91/00360; WO 92/200373; EP 03089). It is contemplated that the antibodies can be prepared in vitro using known methods in synthetic protein chemistry, including those involving crosslinking agents. For example, immunotoxins can be constructed using a disulfide exchange reaction or by forming a thioether bond. Examples of suitable reagents for this purpose include iminothiolate and methyl-4-mercaptobutyrimidate and those disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,676,980.

[0164] Effector Function Engineering

[0165] It can be desirable to modify the antibody of the invention with respect to effector function, so as to enhance, e.g., the effectiveness of the antibody in treating cancer. For example, cysteine residue(s) can be introduced into the Fc region, thereby allowing interchain disulfide bond formation in this region. The homodimeric antibody thus generated can have improved internalization capability and/or increased complement-mediated cell killing and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). See Caron et al., J. Exp Med., 176: 1191-1195 (1992) and Shopes, J. Immunol., 148: 2918-2922 (1992). Homodimeric antibodies with enhanced anti-tumor activity can also be prepared using heterobifunctional cross-linkers as described in Wolff et al. Cancer Research, 53: 2560-2565 (1993). Alternatively, an antibody can be engineered that has dual Fc regions and can thereby have enhanced complement lysis and ADCC capabilities. See Stevenson et al., Anti-Cancer Drug Design, 3: 219-230 (1989).

[0166] Immunoconjugates

[0167] The invention also pertains to immunoconjugates comprising an antibody conjugated to a cytotoxic agent such as a chemotherapeutic agent, toxin (e.g., an enzymatically active toxin of bacterial, fungal, plant, or animal origin, or fragments thereof), or a radioactive isotope (i.e., a radioconjugate).

[0168] Chemotherapeutic agents useful in the generation of such immunoconjugates have been described above. Enzymatically active toxins and fragments thereof that can be used include diphtheria A chain, nonbinding active fragments of diphtheria toxin, exotoxin A chain (from Pseudomonas aeruginosa), ricin A chain, abrin A chain, modeccin A chain, alpha-sarcin, Aleurites fordii proteins, dianthin proteins, Phytolaca americana proteins (PAPI, PAPII, and PAP-S), momordica charantia inhibitor, curcin, crotin, sapaonaria officinalis inhibitor, gelonin, mitogellin, restrictocin, phenomycin, enomycin, and the tricothecenes. A variety of radionuclides are available for the production of radioconjugated antibodies. Examples include 212Bi, 131i, 131In, 90Y, and 18Re.

[0169] Conjugates of the antibody and cytotoxic agent are made using a variety of bifunctional protein-coupling agents such as N-succinimidyl-3-(2-pyridyldithiol) propionate (SPDP), iminothiolane (IT), bifunctional derivatives of imidoesters (such as dimethyl adipimidate HCL), active esters (such as disuccinimidyl suberate), aldehydes (such as glutareldehyde), bis-azido compounds (such as bis (p-azidobenzoyl) hexanediamine), bis-diazonium derivatives (such as bis-(p-diazoniumbenzoyl)-ethylenediamine), diisocyanates (such as tolyene 2,6-diisocyanate), and bis-active fluorine compounds (such as 1,5-difluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene). For example, a ricin immunotoxin can be prepared as described in Vitetta et al., Science, 238: 1098 (1987). Carbon-14-labeled 1-isothiocyanatobenzyl-3-methyldiethylene triaminepentaacetic acid (MX-DTPA) is an exemplary chelating agent for conjugation of radionucleotide to the antibody. See WO94/11026.

[0170] In another embodiment, the antibody can be conjugated to a “receptor” (such streptavidin) for utilization in tumor pretargeting wherein the antibody-receptor conjugate is administered to the patient, followed by removal of unbound conjugate from the circulation using a clearing agent and then administration of a “ligand” (e.g., avidin) that is in turn conjugated to a cytotoxic agent.

[0171] Immunoliposomes

[0172] The antibodies disclosed herein can also be formulated as immunoliposomes. Liposomes containing the antibody are prepared by methods known in the art, such as described in Epstein et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 82: 3688 (1985); Hwang et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 77: 4030 (1980); and U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,485,045 and 4,544,545. Liposomes with enhanced circulation time are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,013,556.

[0173] Particularly useful liposomes can be generated by the reverse-phase evaporation method with a lipid composition comprising phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, and PEG-derivatized phosphatidylethanolamine (PEG-PE). Liposomes are extruded through filters of defined pore size to yield liposomes with the desired diameter. Fab′ fragments of the antibody of the present invention can be conjugated to the liposomes as described in Martin et al., J. Biol. Chem., 257: 286-288 (1982) via a disulfide-interchange reaction. A chemotherapeutic agent (such as Doxorubicin) is optionally contained within the liposome. See Gabizon et al., J. National Cancer Inst., 81(19): 1484 (1989).

[0174] Diagnostic Applications of Antibodies Directed Against the Proteins of the Invention

[0175] Antibodies directed against a protein of the invention may be used in methods known within the art relating to the localization and/or quantitation of the protein (e.g., for use in measuring levels of the protein within appropriate physiological samples, for use in diagnostic methods, for use in imaging the protein, and the like). In a given embodiment, antibodies against the proteins, or derivatives, fragments, analogs or homologs thereof, that contain the antigen binding domain, are utilized as pharmacologically-active compounds (see below).

[0176] An antibody specific for a protein of the invention can be used to isolate the protein by standard techniques, such as immunoaffinity chromatography or immunoprecipitation. Such an antibody can facilitate the purification of the natural protein antigen from cells and of recombinantly produced antigen expressed in host cells. Moreover, such an antibody can be used to detect the antigenic protein (e.g., in a cellular lysate or cell supernatant) in order to evaluate the abundance and pattern of expression of the antigenic protein. Antibodies directed against the protein can be used diagnostically to monitor protein levels in tissue as part of a clinical testing procedure, e.g., to, for example, determine the efficacy of a given treatment regimen. Detection can be facilitated by coupling (i.e., physically linking) the antibody to a detectable substance. Examples of detectable substances include various enzymes, prosthetic groups, fluorescent materials, luminescent materials, bioluminescent materials, and radioactive materials. Examples of suitable enzymes include horseradish peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase, β-galactosidase, or acetylcholinesterase; examples of suitable prosthetic group complexes include streptavidin/biotin and avidin/biotin; examples of suitable fluorescent materials include umbelliferone, fluorescein, fluorescein isothiocyanate, rhodamine, dichlorotriazinylamine fluorescein, dansyl chloride or phycoerythrin; an example of a luminescent material includes luminol; examples of bioluminescent materials include luciferase, luciferin, and aequorin, and examples of suitable radioactive material include 125I, 131I, 35S or 3H.

[0177] Antibody Therapeutics

[0178] Antibodies of the invention, including polyclonal, monoclonal, humanized and fully human antibodies, may used as therapeutic agents. Such agents will generally be employed to treat or prevent a disease or pathology in a subject. An antibody preparation, preferably one having high specificity and high affinity for its target antigen, is administered to the subject and will generally have an effect due to its binding with the target. Such an effect may be one of two kinds, depending on the specific nature of the interaction between the given antibody molecule and the target antigen in question. In the first instance, administration of the antibody may abrogate or inhibit the binding of the target with an endogenous ligand to which it naturally binds. In this case, the antibody binds to the target and masks a binding site of the naturally occurring ligand, wherein the ligand serves as an effector molecule. Thus the receptor mediates a signal transduction pathway for which ligand is responsible.

[0179] Alternatively, the effect may be one in which the antibody elicits a physiological result by virtue of binding to an effector binding site on the target molecule. In this case the target, a receptor having an endogenous ligand which may be absent or defective in the disease or pathology, binds the antibody as a surrogate effector ligand, initiating a receptor-based signal transduction event by the receptor.

[0180] A therapeutically effective amount of an antibody of the invention relates generally to the amount needed to achieve a therapeutic objective. As noted above, this may be a binding interaction between the antibody and its target antigen that, in certain cases, interferes with the functioning of the target, and in other cases, promotes a physiological response. The amount required to be administered will furthermore depend on the binding affinity of the antibody for its specific antigen, and will also depend on the rate at which an administered antibody is depleted from the free volume other subject to which it is administered. Common ranges for therapeutically effective dosing of an antibody or antibody fragment of the invention may be, by way of nonlimiting example, from about 0.1 mg/kg body weight to about 50 mg/kg body weight. Common dosing frequencies may range, for example, from twice daily to once a week.

[0181] Pharmaceutical Compositions of Antibodies

[0182] Antibodies specifically binding a protein of the invention, as well as other molecules identified by the screening assays disclosed herein, can be administered for the treatment of various disorders in the form of pharmaceutical compositions. Principles and considerations involved in preparing such compositions, as well as guidance in the choice of components are provided, for example, in Remington: The Science And Practice Of Pharmacy 19th ed. (Alfonso R. Gennaro, et al., editors) Mack Pub. Co., Easton, Pa.: 1995; Drug Absorption Enhancement: Concepts, Possibilities, Limitations, And Trends, Harwood Academic Publishers, Langhorne, Pa., 1994; and Peptide And Protein Drug Delivery (Advances In Parenteral Sciences, Vol. 4), 1991, M. Dekker, New York.

[0183] If the antigenic protein is intracellular and whole antibodies are used as inhibitors, internalizing antibodies are preferred. However, liposomes can also be used to deliver the antibody, or an antibody fragment, into cells. Where antibody fragments are used, the smallest inhibitory fragment that specifically binds to the binding domain of the target protein is preferred. For example, based upon the variable-region sequences of an antibody, peptide molecules can be designed that retain the ability to bind the target protein sequence. Such peptides can be synthesized chemically and/or produced by recombinant DNA technology. See, e.g., Marasco et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 90: 7889-7893 (1993). The formulation herein can also contain more than one active compound as necessary for the particular indication being treated, preferably those with complementary activities that do not adversely affect each other. Alternatively, or in addition, the composition can comprise an agent that enhances its function, such as, for example, a cytotoxic agent, cytokine, chemotherapeutic agent, or growth-inhibitory agent. Such molecules are suitably present in combination in amounts that are effective for the purpose intended.

[0184] The active ingredients can also be entrapped in microcapsules prepared, for example, by coacervation techniques or by interfacial polymerization, for example, hydroxymethylcellulose or gelatin-microcapsules and poly-(methylmethacrylate) microcapsules, respectively, in colloidal drug delivery systems (for example, liposomes, albumin microspheres, microemulsions, nano-particles, and nanocapsules) or in macroemulsions.

[0185] The formulations to be used for in vivo administration must be sterile. This is readily accomplished by filtration through sterile filtration membranes.

[0186] Sustained-release preparations can be prepared. Suitable examples of sustained-release preparations include semipermeable matrices of solid hydrophobic polymers containing the antibody, which matrices are in the form of shaped articles, e.g., films, or microcapsules. Examples of sustained-release matrices include polyesters, hydrogels (for example, poly(2-hydroxyethyl-methacrylate), or poly(vinylalcohol)), polylactides (U.S. Pat. No. 3,773,919), copolymers of L-glutamic acid and γ ethyl-L-glutamate, non-degradable ethylene-vinyl acetate, degradable lactic acid-glycolic acid copolymers such as the LUPRON DEPOT™ (injectable microspheres composed of lactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer and leuprolide acetate), and poly-D-(−)-3-hydroxybutyric acid. While polymers such as ethylene-vinyl acetate and lactic acid-glycolic acid enable release of molecules for over 100 days, certain hydrogels release proteins for shorter time periods.

[0187] ELISA Assay

[0188] An agent for detecting an analyte protein is an antibody capable of binding to an analyte protein, preferably an antibody with a detectable label. Antibodies can be polyclonal, or more preferably, monoclonal. An intact antibody, or a fragment thereof (e.g., Fab or F(ab)2) can be used. The term “labeled”, with regard to the probe or antibody, is intended to encompass direct labeling of the probe or antibody by coupling (i.e., physically linking) a detectable substance to the probe or antibody, as well as indirect labeling of the probe or antibody by reactivity with another reagent that is directly labeled. Examples of indirect labeling include detection of a primary antibody using a fluorescently-labeled secondary antibody and end-labeling of a DNA probe with biotin such that it can be detected with fluorescently-labeled streptavidin. The term “biological sample” is intended to include tissues, cells and biological fluids isolated from a subject, as well as tissues, cells and fluids present within a subject. Included within the usage of the term “biological sample”, therefore, is blood and a fraction or component of blood including blood serum, blood plasma, or lymph. That is, the detection method of the invention can be used to detect an analyte mRNA, protein, or genomic DNA in a biological sample in vitro as well as in vivo. For example, in vitro techniques for detection of an analyte mRNA include Northern hybridizations and in situ hybridizations. In vitro techniques for detection of an analyte protein include enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), Western blots, immunoprecipitations, and immunofluorescence. In vitro techniques for detection of an analyte genomic DNA include Southern hybridizations. Procedures for conducting immunoassays are described, for example in “ELISA: Theory and Practice: Methods in Molecular Biology”, Vol. 42, J. R. Crowther (Ed.) Human Press, Totowa, N.J., 1995; “Immunoassay”, E. Diamandis and T. Christopoulus, Academic Press, Inc., San Diego, Calif., 1996; and “Practice and Thory of Enzyme Immunoassays”, P. Tijssen, Elsevier Science Publishers, Amsterdam, 1985. Furthermore, in vivo techniques for detection of an analyte protein include introducing into a subject a labeled anti-an analyte protein antibody. For example, the antibody can be labeled with a radioactive marker whose presence and location in a subject can be detected by standard imaging techniques.

[0189] NOVX Recombinant Expression Vectors and Host Cells

[0190] Another aspect of the invention pertains to vectors, preferably expression vectors, containing a nucleic acid encoding an NOVX protein, or derivatives, fragments, analogs or homologs thereof. As used herein, the term “vector” refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it has been linked. One type of vector is a “plasmid”, which refers to a circular double stranded DNA loop into which additional DNA segments can be ligated. Another type of vector is a viral vector, wherein additional DNA segments can be ligated into the viral genome. Certain vectors are capable of autonomous replication in a host cell into which they are introduced (e.g., bacterial vectors having a bacterial origin of replication and episomal mammalian vectors). Other vectors (e.g., non-episomal mammalian vectors) are integrated into the genome of a host cell upon introduction into the host cell, and thereby are replicated along with the host genome. Moreover, certain vectors are capable of directing the expression of genes to which they are operatively-linked. Such vectors are referred to herein as “expression vectors”. In general, expression vectors of utility in recombinant DNA techniques are often in the form of plasmids. In the present specification, “plasmid” and “vector” can be used interchangeably as the plasmid is the most commonly used form of vector. However, the invention is intended to include such other forms of expression vectors, such as viral vectors (e.g., replication defective retroviruses, adenoviruses and adeno-associated viruses), which serve equivalent functions.

[0191] The recombinant expression vectors of the invention comprise a nucleic acid of the invention in a form suitable for expression of the nucleic acid in a host cell, which means that the recombinant expression vectors include one or more regulatory sequences, selected on the basis of the host cells to be used for expression, that is operatively-linked to the nucleic acid sequence to be expressed. Within a recombinant expression vector, “operably-linked” is intended to mean that the nucleotide sequence of interest is linked to the regulatory sequence(s) in a manner that allows for expression of the nucleotide sequence (e.g., in an in vitro transcription/translation system or in a host cell when the vector is introduced into the host cell).

[0192] The term “regulatory sequence” is intended to includes promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements (e.g., polyadenylation signals). Such regulatory sequences are described, for example, in Goeddel, GENE EXPRESSION TECHNOLOGY: METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. (1990). Regulatory sequences include those that direct constitutive expression of a nucleotide sequence in many types of host cell and those that direct expression of the nucleotide sequence only in certain host cells (e.g., tissue-specific regulatory sequences). It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the design of the expression vector can depend on such factors as the choice of the host cell to be transformed, the level of expression of protein desired, etc. The expression vectors of the invention can be introduced into host cells to thereby produce proteins or peptides, including fusion proteins or peptides, encoded by nucleic acids as described herein (e.g., NOVX proteins, mutant forms of NOVX proteins, fusion proteins, etc.).

[0193] The recombinant expression vectors of the invention can be designed for expression of NOVX proteins in prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells. For example, NOVX proteins can be expressed in bacterial cells such as Escherichia coli, insect cells (using baculovirus expression vectors) yeast cells or mammalian cells. Suitable host cells are discussed further in Goeddel, GENE EXPRESSION TECHNOLOGY: METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. (1990). Alternatively, the recombinant expression vector can be transcribed and translated in vitro, for example using T7 promoter regulatory sequences and T7 polymerase.

[0194] Expression of proteins in prokaryotes is most often carried out in Escherichia coli with vectors containing constitutive or inducible promoters directing the expression of either fusion or non-fusion proteins. Fusion vectors add a number of amino acids to a protein encoded therein, usually to the amino terminus of the recombinant protein. Such fusion vectors typically serve three purposes: (i) to increase expression of recombinant protein; (ii) to increase the solubility of the recombinant protein; and (iii) to aid in the purification of the recombinant protein by acting as a ligand in affinity purification. Often, in fusion expression vectors, a proteolytic cleavage site is introduced at the junction of the fusion moiety and the recombinant protein to enable separation of the recombinant protein from the fusion moiety subsequent to purification of the fusion protein. Such enzymes, and their cognate recognition sequences, include Factor Xa, thrombin and enterokinase. Typical fusion expression vectors include pGEX (Pharmacia Biotech Inc; Smith and Johnson, 1988. Gene 67: 31-40), pMAL (New England Biolabs, Beverly, Mass.) and pRIT5 (Pharmacia, Piscataway, N.J.) that fuse glutathione S-transferase (GST), maltose E binding protein, or protein A, respectively, to the target recombinant protein. Examples of suitable inducible non-fusion E. coli expression vectors include pTrc (Amrann et al., (1988) Gene 69:301-315) and pET 11d (Studier et al., GENE EXPRESSION TECHNOLOGY: METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. (1990) 60-89).

[0195] One strategy to maximize recombinant protein expression in E. coli is to express the protein in a host bacteria with an impaired capacity to proteolytically cleave the recombinant protein. See, e.g., Gottesman, GENE EXPRESSION TECHNOLOGY: METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. (1990) 119-128. Another strategy is to alter the nucleic acid sequence of the nucleic acid to be inserted into an expression vector so that the individual codons for each amino acid are those preferentially utilized in E. coli (see, e.g., Wada, et al., 1992. Nucl. Acids Res. 20: 2111-2118). Such alteration of nucleic acid sequences of the invention can be carried out by standard DNA synthesis techniques.

[0196] In another embodiment, the NOVX expression vector is a yeast expression vector. Examples of vectors for expression in yeast Saccharomyces cerivisae include pYepSecI (Baldari, et al., 1987. EMBO J. 6: 229-234), pMFa (Kurjan and Herskowitz, 1982. Cell 30: 933-943), pJRY88 (Schultz et al., 1987. Gene 54: 113-123), pYES2 (Invitrogen Corporation, San Diego, Calif.), and picZ (InVitrogen Corp, San Diego, Calif.). Alternatively, NOVX can be expressed in insect cells using baculovirus expression vectors. Baculovirus vectors available for expression of proteins in cultured insect cells (e.g., SF9 cells) include the pAc series (Smith, et al., 1983. Mol. Cell. Biol. 3: 2156-2165) and the pVL series (Lucklow and Summers, 1989. Virology 170: 31-39).

[0197] In yet another embodiment, a nucleic acid of the invention is expressed in mammalian cells using a mammalian expression vector. Examples of mammalian expression vectors include pCDM8 (Seed, 1987. Nature 329: 840) and pMT2PC (Kaufman, et al., 1987. EMBO J. 6: 187-195). When used in mammalian cells, the expression vector's control functions are often provided by viral regulatory elements. For example, commonly used promoters are derived from polyoma, adenovirus 2, cytomegalovirus, and simian virus 40. For other suitable expression systems for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells see, e.g., Chapters 16 and 17 of Sambrook, et al., MOLECULAR CLONING: A LABORATORY MANUAL. 2nd ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 1989.

[0198] In another embodiment, the recombinant mammalian expression vector is capable of directing expression of the nucleic acid preferentially in a particular cell type (e.g., tissue-specific regulatory elements are used to express the nucleic acid). Tissue-specific regulatory elements are known in the art. Non-limiting examples of suitable tissue-specific promoters include the albumin promoter (liver-specific; Pinkert, et al., 1987. Genes Dev. 1: 268-277), lymphoid-specific promoters (Calame and Eaton, 1988. Adv. Immunol. 43: 235-275), in particular promoters of T cell receptors (Winoto and Baltimore, 1989. EMBO J. 8: 729-733) and immunoglobulins (Banedji, et al., 1983. Cell 33: 729-740; Queen and Baltimore, 1983. Cell 33: 741-748), neuron-specific promoters (e.g., the neurofilament promoter; Byrne and Ruddle, 1989. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86: 5473-5477), pancreas-specific promoters (Edlund, et al., 1985. Science 230: 912-916), and mammary gland-specific promoters (e.g., milk whey promoter; U.S. Pat. No. 4,873,316 and European Application Publication No. 264,166). Developmentally-regulated promoters are also encompassed, e.g., the murine hox promoters (Kessel and Gruss, 1990. Science 249: 374-379) and the α-fetoprotein promoter (Campes and Tilghman, 1989. Genes Dev. 3: 537-546).

[0199] The invention further provides a recombinant expression vector comprising a DNA molecule of the invention cloned into the expression vector in an antisense orientation. That is, the DNA molecule is operatively-linked to a regulatory sequence in a manner that allows for expression (by transcription of the DNA molecule) of an RNA molecule that is antisense to NOVX mRNA. Regulatory sequences operatively linked to a nucleic acid cloned in the antisense orientation can be chosen that direct the continuous expression of the antisense RNA molecule in a variety of cell types, for instance viral promoters and/or enhancers, or regulatory sequences can be chosen that direct constitutive, tissue specific or cell type specific expression of antisense RNA. The antisense expression vector can be in the form of a recombinant plasmid, phagemid or attenuated virus in which antisense nucleic acids are produced under the control of a high efficiency regulatory region, the activity of which can be determined by the cell type into which the vector is introduced. For a discussion of the regulation of gene expression using antisense genes see, e.g., Weintraub, et al., “Antisense RNA as a molecular tool for genetic analysis,” Reviews-Trends in Genetics, Vol. 1(1) 1986.

[0200] Another aspect of the invention pertains to host cells into which a recombinant expression vector of the invention has been introduced. The terms “host cell” and “recombinant host cell” are used interchangeably herein. It is understood that such terms refer not only to the particular subject cell but also to the progeny or potential progeny of such a cell. Because certain modifications may occur in succeeding generations due to either mutation or environmental influences, such progeny may not, in fact, be identical to the parent cell, but are still included within the scope of the term as used herein A host cell can be any prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell. For example, NOVX protein can be expressed in bacterial cells such as E. coli, insect cells, yeast or mammalian cells (such as Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) or COS cells). Other suitable host cells are known to those skilled in the art.

[0201] Vector DNA can be introduced into prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells via conventional transformation or transfection techniques. As used herein, the terms “transformation” and “transfection” are intended to refer to a variety of art-recognized techniques for introducing foreign nucleic acid (e.g., DNA) into a host cell, including calcium phosphate or calcium chloride co-precipitation, DEAE-dextran-mediated transfection, lipofection, or electroporation. Suitable methods for transforming or transfecting host cells can be found in Sambrook, et al. (MOLECULAR CLONING: A LABORATORY MANUAL. 2nd ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 1989), and other laboratory manuals.

[0202] For stable transfection of mammalian cells, it is known that, depending upon the expression vector and transfection technique used, only a small fraction of cells may integrate the foreign DNA into their genome. In order to identify and select these integrants, a gene that encodes a selectable marker (e.g., resistance to antibiotics) is generally introduced into the host cells along with the gene of interest. Various selectable markers include those that confer resistance to drugs, such as G418, hygromycin and methotrexate. Nucleic acid encoding a selectable marker can be introduced into a host cell on the same vector as that encoding NOVX or can be introduced on a separate vector. Cells stably transfected with the introduced nucleic acid can be identified by drug selection (e.g., cells that have incorporated the selectable marker gene will survive, while the other cells die).

[0203] A host cell of the invention, such as a prokaryotic or eukaryotic host cell in culture, can be used to produce (i.e., express) NOVX protein. Accordingly, the invention further provides methods for producing NOVX protein using the host cells of the invention. In one embodiment, the method comprises culturing the host cell of invention (into which a recombinant expression vector encoding NOVX protein has been introduced) in a suitable medium such that NOVX protein is produced. In another embodiment, the method further comprises isolating NOVX protein from the medium or the host cell.

[0204] Transgenic NOVX Animals

[0205] The host cells of the invention can also be used to produce non-human transgenic animals. For example, in one embodiment, a host cell of the invention is a fertilized oocyte or an embryonic stem cell into which NOVX protein-coding sequences have been introduced. Such host cells can then be used to create non-human transgenic animals in which exogenous NOVX sequences have been introduced into their genome or homologous recombinant animals in which endogenous NOVX sequences have been altered. Such animals are useful for studying the function and/or activity of NOVX protein and for identifying and/or evaluating modulators of NOVX protein activity. As used herein, a “transgenic animal” is a non-human animal, preferably a mammal, more preferably a rodent such as a rat or mouse, in which one or more of the cells of the animal includes a transgene Other examples of transgenic animals include non-human primates, sheep, dogs, cows, goats, chickens, amphibians, etc. A transgene is exogenous DNA that is integrated into the genome of a cell from which a transgenic animal develops and that remains in the genome of the mature animal, thereby directing the expression of an encoded gene product in one or more cell types or tissues of the transgenic animal. As used herein, a “homologous recombinant animal” is a non-human animal, preferably a mammal, more preferably a mouse, in which an endogenous NOVX gene has been altered by homologous recombination between the endogenous gene and an exogenous DNA molecule introduced into a cell of the animal, e.g., an embryonic cell of the animal, prior to development of the animal.

[0206] A transgenic animal of the invention can be created by introducing NOVX-encoding nucleic acid into the male pronuclei of a fertilized oocyte (e.g., by microinjection, retroviral infection) and allowing the oocyte to develop in a pseudopregnant female foster animal. The human NOVX cDNA sequences SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 can be introduced as a transgene into the genome of a non-human animal. Alternatively, a non-human homologue of the human NOVX gene, such as a mouse NOVX gene, can be isolated based on hybridization to the human NOVX cDNA (described further supra) and used as a transgene. Intronic sequences and polyadenylation signals can also be included in the transgene to increase the efficiency of expression of the transgene. A tissue-specific regulatory sequence(s) can be operably-linked to the NOVX transgene to direct expression of NOVX protein to particular cells. Methods for generating transgenic animals via embryo manipulation and microinjection, particularly animals such as mice, have become conventional in the art and are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,736,866; 4,870,009; and 4,873,191; and Hogan, 1986. In: MANIPULATING THE MOUSE EMBRYO, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. Similar methods are used for production of other transgenic animals. A transgenic founder animal can be identified based upon the presence of the NOVX transgene in its genome and/or expression of NOVX mRNA in tissues or cells of the animals. A transgenic founder animal can then be used to breed additional animals carrying the transgene. Moreover, transgenic animals carrying a transgene-encoding NOVX protein can further be bred to other transgenic animals carrying other transgenes.

[0207] To create a homologous recombinant animal, a vector is prepared which contains at least a portion of an NOVX gene into which a deletion, addition or substitution has been introduced to thereby alter, e.g., functionally disrupt, the NOVX gene. The NOVX gene can be a human gene (e.g., the cDNA of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178), but more preferably, is a non-human homologue of a human NOVX gene. For example, a mouse homologue of human NOVX gene of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 can be used to construct a homologous recombination vector suitable for altering an endogenous NOVX gene in the mouse genome. In one embodiment, the vector is designed such that, upon homologous recombination, the endogenous NOVX gene is functionally disrupted (i.e., no longer encodes a functional protein; also referred to as a “knock out” vector).

[0208] Alternatively, the vector can be designed such that, upon homologous recombination, the endogenous NOVX gene is mutated or otherwise altered but still encodes functional protein (e.g., the upstream regulatory region can be altered to thereby alter the expression of the endogenous NOVX protein). In the homologous recombination vector, the altered portion of the NOVX gene is flanked at its 5′- and 3′-termini by additional nucleic acid of the NOVX gene to allow for homologous recombination to occur between the exogenous NOVX gene carried by the vector and an endogenous NOVX gene in an embryonic stem cell. The additional flanking NOVX nucleic acid is of sufficient length for successful homologous recombination with the endogenous gene. Typically, several kilobases of flanking DNA (both at the 5′- and 3′-termini) are included in the vector. See, e.g., Thomas, et al., 1987. Cell 51: 503 for a description of homologous recombination vectors. The vector is ten introduced into an embryonic stem cell line (e.g., by electroporation) and cells in which the introduced NOVX gene has homologously-recombined with the endogenous NOVX gene are selected. See, e.g., Li, et al., 1992. Cell 69: 915.

[0209] The selected cells are then injected into a blastocyst of an animal (e.g., a mouse) to form aggregation chimeras. See, e.g., Bradley, 1987. In: TETRATOCARCINOMAS AND EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS: A PRACTICAL APPROACH, Robertson, ed. IRL, Oxford, pp. 113-152. A chimeric embryo can then be implanted into a suitable pseudopregnant female foster animal and the embryo brought to term. Progeny harboring the homologously-recombined DNA in their germ cells can be used to breed animals in which all cells of the animal contain the homologously-recombined DNA by germline transmission of the transgene. Methods for constructing homologous recombination vectors and homologous recombinant animals are described further in Bradley, 1991. Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 2: 823-829; PCT International Publication Nos.: WO 90/11354; WO 91/01140; WO 92/0968; and WO 93/04169.

[0210] In another embodiment, transgenic non-humans animals can be produced that contain selected systems that allow for regulated expression of the transgene. One example of such a system is the cre/loxP recombinase system of bacteriophage P1. For a description of the cre/loxP recombinase system, See, e.g., Lakso, et al., 1992. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 6232-6236. Another example of a recombinase system is the FLP recombinase system of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. See, O'Gorman, et al., 1991. Science 251:1351-1355. If a cre/loxP recombinase system is used to regulate expression of the transgene, animals containing transgenes encoding both the Cre recombinase and a selected protein are required. Such animals can be provided through the construction of “double” transgenic animals, e.g., by mating two transgenic animals, one containing a transgene encoding a selected protein and the other containing a transgene encoding a recombinase.

[0211] Clones of the non-human transgenic animals described herein can also be produced according to the methods described in Wilmut, et al., 1997. Nature 385: 810-813. In brief, a cell (e.g., a somatic cell) from the transgenic animal can be isolated and induced to exit the growth cycle and enter G0 phase. The quiescent cell can then be fused, e.g., through the use of electrical pulses, to an enucleated oocyte from an animal of the same species from which the quiescent cell is isolated. The reconstructed oocyte is then cultured such that it develops to morula or blastocyte and then transferred to pseudopregnant female foster animal. The offspring borne of this female foster animal will be a clone of the animal from which the cell (e.g., the somatic cell) is isolated.

[0212] Pharmaceutical Compositions

[0213] The NOVX nucleic acid molecules, NOVX proteins, and anti-NOVX antibodies (also referred to herein as “active compounds”) of the invention, and derivatives, fragments, analogs and homologs thereof, can be incorporated into pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration. Such compositions typically comprise the nucleic acid molecule, protein, or antibody and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” is intended to include any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like, compatible with pharmaceutical administration. Suitable carriers are described in the most recent edition of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, a standard reference text in the field, which is incorporated herein by reference. Preferred examples of such carriers or diluents include, but are not limited to, water, saline, finger's solutions, dextrose solution, and 5% human serum albumin. Liposomes and non-aqueous vehicles such as fixed oils may also be used. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active compound, use thereof in the compositions is contemplated. Supplementary active compounds can also be incorporated into the compositions.

[0214] A pharmaceutical composition of the invention is formulated to be compatible with its intended route of administration. Examples of routes of administration include parenteral, e.g., intravenous, intradermal, subcutaneous, oral (e.g., inhalation), transdermal (i.e., topical), transmucosal, and rectal administration. Solutions or suspensions used for parenteral, intradermal, or subcutaneous application can include the following components: a sterile diluent such as water for injection, saline solution, fixed oils, polyethylene glycols, glycerine, propylene glycol or other synthetic solvents; antibacterial agents such as benzyl alcohol or methyl parabens; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or sodium bisulfite; chelating agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA); buffers such as acetates, citrates or phosphates, and agents for the adjustment of tonicity such as sodium chloride or dextrose. The pH can be adjusted with acids or bases, such as hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide. The parenteral preparation can be enclosed in ampoules, disposable syringes or multiple dose vials made of glass or plastic.

[0215] Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions (where water soluble) or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersion. For intravenous administration, suitable carriers include physiological saline, bacteriostatic water, Cremophor EL™ (BASF, Parsippany, N.J.) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS). In all cases, the composition must be sterile and should be fluid to the extent that easy syringeability exists. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, polyalcohols such as manitol, sorbitol, sodium chloride in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by including in the composition an agent which delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin.

[0216] Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by incorporating the active compound (e.g., an NOVX protein or anti-NOVX antibody) in the required amount in an appropriate solvent with one or a combination of ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filtered sterilization. Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating the active compound into a sterile vehicle that contains a basic dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, methods of preparation are vacuum drying and freeze-drying that yields a powder of the active ingredient plus any additional desired ingredient from a previously sterile-filtered solution thereof.

[0217] Oral compositions generally include an inert diluent or an edible carrier. They can be enclosed in gelatin capsules or compressed into tablets. For the purpose of oral therapeutic administration, the active compound can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, troches, or capsules. Oral compositions can also be prepared using a fluid carrier for use as a mouthwash, wherein the compound in the fluid carrier is applied orally and swished and expectorated or swallowed. Pharmaceutically compatible binding agents, and/or adjuvant materials can be included as part of the composition. The tablets, pills, capsules, troches and the like can contain any of the following ingredients, or compounds of a similar nature: a binder such as microcrystalline cellulose, gum tragacanth or gelatin; an excipient such as starch or lactose, a disintegrating agent such as alginic acid, Primogel, or corn starch; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate or Sterotes; a glidant such as colloidal silicon dioxide; a sweetening agent such as sucrose or saccharin; or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring.

[0218] For administration by inhalation, the compounds are delivered in the form of an aerosol spray from pressured container or dispenser which contains a suitable propellant, e.g., a gas such as carbon dioxide, or a nebulizer.

[0219] Systemic administration can also be by transmucosal or transdermal means. For transmucosal or transdermal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art, and include, for example, for transmucosal administration, detergents, bile salts, and fusidic acid derivatives. Transmucosal administration can be accomplished through the use of nasal sprays or suppositories. For transdermal administration, the active compounds are formulated into ointments, salves, gels, or creams as generally known in the art.

[0220] The compounds can also be prepared in the form of suppositories (e.g., with conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter and other glycerides) or retention enemas for rectal delivery.

[0221] In one embodiment, the active compounds are prepared with carriers that will protect the compound against rapid elimination from the body, such as a controlled release formulation, including implants and microencapsulated delivery systems. Biodegradable, biocompatible polymers can be used, such as ethylene vinyl acetate, polyanhydrides, polyglycolic acid, collagen, polyorthoesters, and polylactic acid. Methods for preparation of such formulations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The materials can also be obtained commercially from Alza Corporation and Nova Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Liposomal suspensions (including liposomes targeted to infected cells with monoclonal antibodies to viral antigens) can also be used as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. These can be prepared according to methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,522,811.

[0222] It is especially advantageous to formulate oral or parenteral compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the subject to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. The specification for the dosage unit forms of the invention are dictated by and directly dependent on the unique characteristics of the active compound and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved, and the limitations inherent in the art of compounding such an active compound for the treatment of individuals.

[0223] The nucleic acid molecules of the invention can be inserted into vectors and used as gene therapy vectors. Gene therapy vectors can be delivered to a subject by, for example, intravenous injection, local administration (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,328,470) or by stereotactic injection (see, e.g., Chen, et al., 1994. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91: 3054-3057). The pharmaceutical preparation of the gene therapy vector can include the gene therapy vector in an acceptable diluent, orcan comprise a slow release matrix in which the gene delivery vehicle is imbedded. Alternatively, where the complete gene delivery vector can be produced intact from recombinant cells, e.g., retroviral vectors, the pharmaceutical preparation can include one or more cells that produce the gene delivery system.

[0224] The pharmaceutical compositions can be included in a container, pack, or dispenser together with instructions for administration.

[0225] Screening and Detection Methods

[0226] The isolated nucleic acid molecules of the invention can be used to express NOVX protein (e.g., via a recombinant expression vector in a host cell in gene therapy applications), to detect NOVX mRNA (e.g., in a biological sample) or a genetic lesion in an NOVX gene, and to modulate NOVX activity, as described further, below. In addition, the NOVX proteins can be used to screen drugs or compounds that modulate the NOVX protein activity or expression as well as to treat disorders characterized by insufficient or excessive production of NOVX protein or production of NOVX protein forms that have decreased or aberrant activity compared to NOVX wild-type protein (e.g.; diabetes (regulates insulin release); obesity (binds and transport lipids); metabolic disturbances associated with obesity, the metabolic syndrome X as well as anorexia and wasting disorders associated with chronic diseases and various cancers, and infectious disease (possesses anti-microbial activity) and the various dyslipidemias. In addition, the anti-NOVX antibodies of the invention can be used to detect and isolate NOVX proteins and modulate NOVX activity. In yet a further aspect, the invention can be used in methods to influence appetite, absorption of nutrients and the disposition of metabolic substrates in both a positive and negative fashion.

[0227] The invention further pertains to novel agents identified by the screening assays described herein and uses thereof for treatments as described, supra.

[0228] Screening Assays

[0229] The invention provides a method (also referred to herein as a “screening assay”) for identifying modulators, i.e., candidate or test compounds or agents (e.g., peptides, peptidomimetics, small molecules or other drugs) that bind to NOVX proteins or have a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on, e.g., NOVX protein expression or NOVX protein activity. The invention also includes compounds identified in the screening assays described herein.

[0230] In one embodiment, the invention provides assays for screening candidate or test compounds which bind to or modulate the activity of the membrane-bound form of an NOVX protein or polypeptide or biologically-active portion thereof. The test compounds of the invention can be obtained using any of the numerous approaches in combinatorial library methods known in the art, including: biological libraries; spatially addressable parallel solid phase or solution phase libraries; synthetic library methods requiring deconvolution; the “one-bead one-compound” library method; and synthetic library methods using affinity chromatography selection. The biological library approach is limited to peptide libraries, while the other four approaches are applicable to peptide, non-peptide oligomer or small molecule libraries of compounds. See, e.g., Lam, 1997. Anticancer Drug Design 12: 145.

[0231] A “small molecule” as used herein, is meant to refer to a composition that has a molecular weight of less than about 5 kD and most preferably less than about 4 kD. Small molecules can be, e.g., nucleic acids, peptides, polypeptides, peptidomimetics, carbohydrates, lipids or other organic or inorganic molecules. Libraries of chemical and/or biological mixtures, such as fungal, bacterial, or algal extracts, are known in the art and can be screened with any of the assays of the invention.

[0232] Examples of methods for the synthesis of molecular libraries can be found in the art, for example in: DeWitt, et al., 1993. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 90: 6909; Erb, et al., 1994. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 91: 11422; Zuckermann, et al., 1994. J. Med. Chem. 37: 2678; Cho, et al., 1993. Science 261: 1303; Carrell, et al., 1994. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 33: 2059; Carell, et al., 1994. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 33: 2061; and Gallop, et al., 1994. J. Med. Chem. 37:1233.

[0233] Libraries of compounds may be presented in solution (e.g., Houghten, 1992. Biotechniques 13: 412-421), or on beads (Lam, 1991. Nature 354: 82-84), on chips (Fodor, 1993. Nature 364: 555-556), bacteria (Ladner, U.S. Pat. No. 5,223,409), spores (Ladner, U.S. Pat. No. 5,233,409), plasmids (Cull, et al., 1992. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 1865-1869) or on phage (Scott and Smith, 1990. Science 249: 386-390; Devlin, 1990. Science 249: 404-406; Cwirla, et al., 1990. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 87: 6378-6382; Felici, 1991. J. Mol. Biol. 222: 301-310; Ladner, U.S. Pat. No. 5,233,409.).

[0234] In one embodiment, an assay is a cell-based assay in which a cell which expresses a membrane-bound form of NOVX protein, or a biologically-active portion thereof, on the cell surface is contacted with a test compound and the ability of the test compound to bind to an NOVX protein determined. The cell, for example, can of mammalian origin or a yeast cell. Determining the ability of the test compound to bind to the NOVX protein can be accomplished, for example, by coupling the test compound with a radioisotope or enzymatic label such that binding of the test compound to the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof can be determined by detecting the labeled compound in a complex. For example, test compounds can be labeled with 125I, 35S, 14C, or 3H, either directly or indirectly, and the radioisotope detected by direct counting of radioemission or by scintillation counting. Alternatively, test compounds can be enzymatically-labeled with, for example, horseradish peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase, or luciferase, and the enzymatic label detected by determination of conversion of an appropriate substrate to product. In one embodiment, the assay comprises contacting a cell which expresses a membrane-bound form of NOVX protein, or a biologically-active portion thereof, on the cell surface with a known compound which binds NOVX to form an assay mixture, contacting the assay mixture with a test compound, and determining the ability of the test compound to interact with an NOVX protein, wherein determining the ability of the test compound to interact with an NOVX protein comprises determining the ability of the test compound to preferentially bind to NOVX protein or a biologically-active portion thereof as compared to the known compound.

[0235] In another embodiment, an assay is a cell-based assay comprising contacting a cell expressing a membrane-bound form of NOVX protein, or a biologically-active portion thereof, on the cell surface with a test compound and determining the ability of the test compound to modulate (e.g., stimulate or inhibit) the activity of the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof. Determining the ability of the test compound to modulate the activity of NOVX or a biologically-active portion thereof can be accomplished, for example, by determining the ability of the NOVX protein to bind to or interact with an NOVX target molecule. As used herein, a “target molecule” is a molecule with which an NOVX protein binds or interacts in nature, for example, a molecule on the surface of a cell which expresses an NOVX interacting protein, a molecule on the surface of a second cell, a molecule in the extracellular milieu, a molecule associated with the internal surface of a cell membrane or a cytoplasmic molecule. An NOVX target molecule can be a non-NOVX molecule or an NOVX protein or polypeptide of the invention. In one embodiment, an NOVX target molecule is a component of a signal transduction pathway that facilitates transduction of an extracellular signal (e.g. a signal generated by binding of a compound to a membrane-bound NOVX molecule) through the cell membrane and into the cell. The target, for example, can be a second intercellular protein that has catalytic activity or a protein that facilitates the association of downstream signaling molecules with NOVX.

[0236] Determining the ability of the NOVX protein to bind to or interact with an NOVX target molecule can be accomplished by one of the methods described above for determining direct binding. In one embodiment, determining the ability of the NOVX protein to bind to or interact with an NOVX target molecule can be accomplished by determining the activity of the target molecule. For example, the activity of the target molecule can be determined by detecting induction of a cellular second messenger of the target (i.e. intracellular Ca2+, diacylglycerol, IP3, etc.), detecting catalytic/enzymatic activity of the target an appropriate substrate, detecting the induction of a reporter gene (comprising an NOVX-responsive regulatory element operatively linked to a nucleic acid encoding a detectable marker, e.g., luciferase), or detecting a cellular response, for example, cell survival, cellular differentiation, or cell proliferation.

[0237] In yet another embodiment, an assay of the invention is a cell-free assay comprising contacting an NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof with a test compound and determining the ability of the test compound to bind to the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof. Binding of the test compound to the NOVX protein can be determined either directly or indirectly as described above. In one such embodiment, the assay comprises contacting the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof with a known compound which binds NOVX to form an assay mixture, contacting the assay mixture with a test compound, and determining the ability of the test compound to interact with an NOVX protein, wherein determining the ability of the test compound to interact with an NOVX protein comprises determining the ability of the test compound to preferentially bind to NOVX or biologically-active portion thereof as compared to the known compound.

[0238] In still another embodiment, an assay is a cell-free assay comprising contacting NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof with a test compound and determining the ability of the test compound to modulate (e.g. stimulate or inhibit) the activity of the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof. Determining the ability of the test compound to modulate the activity of NOVX can be accomplished, for example, by determining the ability of the NOVX protein to bind to an NOVX target molecule by one of the methods described above for determining direct binding. In an alternative embodiment, determining the ability of the test compound to modulate the activity of NOVX protein can be accomplished by determining the ability of the NOVX protein further modulate an NOVX target molecule. For example, the catalytic/enzymatic activity of the target molecule on an appropriate substrate can be determined as described, supra.

[0239] In yet another embodiment, the cell-free assay comprises contacting the NOVX protein or biologically-active portion thereof with a known compound which binds NOVX protein to form an assay mixture, contacting the assay mixture with a test compound, and determining the ability of the test compound to interact with an NOVX protein, wherein determining the ability of the test compound to interact with an NOVX protein comprises determining the ability of the NOVX protein to preferentially bind to or modulate the activity of an NOVX target molecule.

[0240] The cell-free assays of the invention are amenable to use of both the soluble form or the membrane-bound form of NOVX protein. In the case of cell-free assays comprising the membrane-bound form of NOVX protein, it may be desirable to utilize a solubilizing agent such that the membrane-bound form of NOVX protein is maintained in solution. Examples of such solubilizing agents include non-ionic detergents such as n-octylglucoside, n-dodecylglucoside, n-dodecylmaltoside, octanoyl-N-methylglucamide, decanoyl-N-methylglucamide, Triton® X-100, Triton® X-114, Thesit®, Isotridecypoly(ethylene glycol ether)n, N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propane sulfonate, 3-(3-cholamidopropyl) dimethylamminiol-1-propane sulfonate (CHAPS), or 3-(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylamminiol-2-hydroxy-1-propane sulfonate (CHAPSO).

[0241] In more than one embodiment of the above assay methods of the invention, it may be desirable to immobilize either NOVX protein or its target molecule to facilitate separation of complexed from uncomplexed forms of one or both of the proteins, as well as to accommodate automation of the assay. Binding of a test compound to NOVX protein, or interaction of NOVX protein with a target molecule in the presence and absence of a candidate compound, can be accomplished in any vessel suitable for containing the reactants. Examples of such vessels include microtiter plates, test tubes, and micro-centrifuge tubes. In one embodiment, a fusion protein can be provided that adds a domain that allows one or both of the proteins to be bound to a matrix. For example, GST-NOVX fusion proteins or GST-target fusion proteins can be adsorbed onto glutathione sepharose beads (Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, Mo.) or glutathione derivatized microtiter plates, that are then combined with the test compound or the test compound and either the non-adsorbed target protein or NOVX protein, and the mixture is incubated under conditions conducive to complex formation (e.g., at physiological conditions for salt and pH). Following incubation, the beads or microtiter plate wells are washed to remove any unbound components, the matrix immobilized in the case of beads, complex determined either directly or indirectly, for example, as described, supra. Alternatively, the complexes can be dissociated from the matrix, and the level of NOVX protein binding or activity determined using standard techniques.

[0242] Other techniques for immobilizing proteins on matrices can also be used in the screening assays of the invention. For example, either the NOVX protein or its target molecule can be immobilized utilizing conjugation of biotin and streptavidin. Biotinylated NOVX protein or target molecules can be prepared from biotin-NHS (N-hydroxy-succinimide) using techniques well-known within the art (e.g., biotinylation kit, Pierce Chemicals, Rockford, Ill.), and immobilized in the wells of streptavidin-coated 96 well plates (Pierce Chemical). Alternatively, antibodies reactive with NOVX protein or target molecules, but which do not interfere with binding of the NOVX protein to its target molecule, can be derivatized to the wells of the plate, and unbound target or NOVX protein trapped in the wells by antibody conjugation. Methods for detecting such complexes, in addition to those described above for the GST-immobilized complexes, include immunodetection of complexes using antibodies reactive with the NOVX protein or target molecule, as well as enzyme-linked assays that rely on detecting an enzymatic activity associated with the NOVX protein or target molecule.

[0243] In another embodiment, modulators of NOVX protein expression are identified in a method wherein a cell is contacted with a candidate compound and the expression of NOVX mRNA or protein in the cell is determined. The level of expression of NOVX mRNA or protein in the presence of the candidate compound is compared to the level of expression of NOVX mRNA or protein in the absence of the candidate compound. The candidate compound can then be identified as a modulator of NOVX mRNA or protein expression based upon this comparison. For example, when expression of NOVX mRNA or protein is greater (ie., statistically significantly greater) in the presence of the candidate compound than in its absence, the candidate compound is identified as a stimulator of NOVX mRNA or protein expression. Alternatively, when expression of NOVX mRNA or protein is less (statistically significantly less) in the presence of the candidate compound than in its absence, the candidate compound is identified as an inhibitor of NOVX mRNA or protein expression. The level of NOVX mRNA or protein expression in the cells can be determined by methods described herein for detecting NOVX mRNA or protein.

[0244] In yet another aspect of the invention, the NOVX proteins can be used as “bait proteins” in a two-hybrid assay or three hybrid assay (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,283,317; Zervos, et al., 1993. Cell 72: 223-232; Madura, et al., 1993. J. Biol. Chem. 268: 12046-12054; Bartel, et al., 1993. Biotechniques 14: 920-924; Iwabuchi, et al., 1993. Oncogene 8: 1693-1696; and Brent WO 94/10300), to identify other proteins that bind to or interact with NOVX (“NOVX-binding proteins” or “NOVX-bp”) and modulate NOVX activity. Such NOVX-binding proteins are also likely to be involved in the propagation of signals by the NOVX proteins as, for example, upstream or downstream elements of the NOVX pathway.

[0245] The two-hybrid system is based on the modular nature of most transcription factors, which consist of separable DNA-binding and activation domains. Briefly, the assay utilizes two different DNA constructs. In one construct, the gene that codes for NOVX is fused to a gene encoding the DNA binding domain of a known transcription factor (e.g., GALA). In the other construct, a DNA sequence, from a library of DNA sequences, that encodes an unidentified protein (“prey” or “sample”) is fused to a gene that codes for the activation domain of the known transcription factor. If the “bait” and the “prey” proteins are able to interact, in vivo, forming an NOVX-dependent complex, the DNA-binding and activation domains of the transcription factor are brought into close proximity. This proximity allows transcription of a reporter gene (e.g., LacZ) that is operably linked to a transcriptional regulatory site responsive to the transcription factor. Expression of the reporter gene can be detected and cell colonies containing the functional transcription factor can be isolated and used to obtain the cloned gene that encodes the protein which interacts with NOVX.

[0246] The invention further pertains to novel agents identified by the aforementioned screening assays and uses thereof for treatments as described herein.

[0247] Detection Assays

[0248] Portions or fragments of the cDNA sequences identified herein (and the corresponding complete gene sequences) can be used in numerous ways as polynucleotide reagents. By way of example, and not of limitation, these sequences can be used to: (i) map their respective genes on a chromosome; and, thus, locate gene regions associated with genetic disease; (ii) identify an individual from a minute biological sample (tissue typing); and (iii) aid in forensic identification of a biological sample. Some of these applications are described in the subsections, below.

[0249] Chromosome Mapping

[0250] Once the sequence (or a portion of the sequence) of a gene has been isolated, this sequence can be used to map the location of the gene on a chromosome. This process is called chromosome mapping. Accordingly, portions or fragments of the NOVX sequences, SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or fragments or derivatives thereof, can be used to map the location of the NOVX genes, respectively, on a chromosome. The mapping of the NOVX sequences to chromosomes is an important first step in correlating these sequences with genes associated with disease.

[0251] Briefly, NOVX genes can be mapped to chromosomes by preparing PCR primers (preferably 15-25 bp in length) from the NOVX sequences. Computer analysis of the NOVX, sequences can be used to rapidly select primers that do not span more than one exon in the genomic DNA, thus complicating the amplification process. These primers can then be used for PCR screening of somatic cell hybrids containing individual human chromosomes. Only those hybrids containing the human gene corresponding to the NOVX sequences will yield an amplified fragment.

[0252] Somatic cell hybrids are prepared by fusing somatic cells from different mammals (e.g., human and mouse cells). As hybrids of human and mouse cells grow and divide, they gradually lose human chromosomes in random order, but retain the mouse chromosomes. By using media in which mouse cells cannot grow, because they lack a particular enzyme, but in which human cells can, the one human chromosome that contains the gene encoding the needed enzyme will be retained. By using various media, panels of hybrid cell lines can be established. Each cell line in a panel contains either a single human chromosome or a small number of human chromosomes, and a full set of mouse chromosomes, allowing easy mapping of individual genes to specific human chromosomes. See, e.g., D'Eustachio, et al., 1983. Science 220: 919-924. Somatic cell hybrids containing only fragments of human chromosomes can also be produced by using human chromosomes with translocations and deletions.

[0253] PCR mapping of somatic cell hybrids is a rapid procedure for assigning a particular sequence to a particular chromosome. Three or more sequences can be assigned per day using a single thermal cycler. Using the NOVX sequences to design oligonucleotide primers, sub-localization can be achieved with panels of fragments from specific chromosomes.

[0254] Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of a DNA sequence to a metaphase chromosomal 0.4 z spread can further be used to provide a precise chromosomal location in one step. Chromosome spreads can be made using cells whose division has been blocked in metaphase by a chemical like colcemid that disrupts the mitotic spindle. The chromosomes can be treated briefly with trypsin, and then stained with Giemsa. A pattern of light and dark bands develops on each chromosome, so that the chromosomes can be identified individually. The FISH technique can be used with a DNA sequence as short as 500 or 600 bases. However, clones larger than 1,000 bases have a higher likelihood of binding to a unique chromosomal location with sufficient signal intensity for simple detection. Preferably 1,000 bases, and more preferably 2,000 bases, will suffice to get good results at a reasonable amount of time. For a review of this technique, see, Verma, et al., HUMAN CHROMOSOMES: A MANUAL OF BASIC TECHNIQUES (Pergamon Press, New York 1988).

[0255] Reagents for chromosome mapping can be used individually to mark a single chromosome or a single site on that chromosome, or panels of reagents can be used for marking multiple sites and/or multiple chromosomes. Reagents corresponding to noncoding regions of the genes actually are preferred for mapping purposes. Coding sequences are more likely to be conserved within gene families, thus increasing the chance of cross hybridizations during chromosomal mapping.

[0256] Once a sequence has been mapped to a precise chromosomal location, the physical position of the sequence on the chromosome can be correlated with genetic map data. Such data are found, e.g., in McKusick, MENDELIAN INHERITANCE IN MAN, available on-line through Johns Hopkins University Welch Medical Library). The relationship between genes and disease, mapped to the same chromosomal region, can then be identified through linkage analysis (co-inheritance of physically adjacent genes), described in, e.g., Egeland, et al., 1987. Nature, 325: 783-787.

[0257] Moreover, differences in the DNA sequences between individuals affected and unaffected with a disease associated with the NOVX gene, can be determined. If a mutation is observed in some or all of the affected individuals but not in any unaffected individuals, then the mutation is likely to be the causative agent of the particular disease. Comparison of affected and unaffected individuals generally involves first looking for structural alterations in the chromosomes, such as deletions or translocations that are visible from chromosome spreads or detectable using PCR based on that DNA sequence. Ultimately, complete sequencing of genes from several individuals can be performed to confirm the presence of a mutation and to distinguish mutations from polymorphisms.

[0258] Tissue Typing

[0259] The NOVX sequences of the invention can also be used to identify individuals from minute biological samples. In this technique, an individual's genomic DNA is digested with one or more restriction enzymes, and probed on a Southern blot to yield unique bands for identification. The sequences of the invention are useful as additional DNA markers for RFLP (“restriction fragment length polymorphisms,” described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,272,057).

[0260] Furthermore, the sequences of the invention can be used to provide an alternative technique that determines the actual base-by-base DNA sequence of selected portions of an individual's genome. Thus, the NOVX sequences described herein can be used to prepare two PCR primers from the 5′- and 3′-termini of the sequences. These primers can then be used to amplify an individual's DNA and subsequently sequence it.

[0261] Panels of corresponding DNA sequences from individuals, prepared in this manner, can provide unique individual identifications, as each individual will have a unique set of such DNA sequences due to allelic differences. The sequences of the invention can be used to obtain such identification sequences from individuals and from tissue. The NOVX sequences of the invention uniquely represent portions of the human genome. Allelic variation occurs to some degree in the coding regions of these sequences, and to a greater degree in the noncoding regions. It is estimated that allelic variation between individual humans occurs with a frequency of about once per each 500 bases. Much of the allelic variation is due to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which include restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs).

[0262] Each of the sequences described herein can, to some degree, be used as a standard against which DNA from an individual can be compared for identification purposes. Because greater numbers of polymorphisms occur in the noncoding regions, fewer sequences are necessary to differentiate individuals. The noncoding sequences can comfortably provide positive individual identification with a panel of perhaps 10 to 1,000 primers that each yield a noncoding amplified sequence of 100 bases. If predicted coding sequences, such as those in SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178 are used, a more appropriate number of primers for positive individual identification would be 500-2,000.

[0263] Predictive Medicine

[0264] The invention also pertains to the field of predictive medicine in which diagnostic assays, prognostic assays, pharmacogenomics, and monitoring clinical trials are used for prognostic (predictive) purposes to thereby treat an individual prophylactically. Accordingly, one aspect of the invention relates to diagnostic assays for determining NOVX protein and/or nucleic acid expression as well as NOVX activity, in the context of a biological sample (e.g., blood, serum, cells, tissue) to thereby determine whether an individual is afflicted with a disease or disorder, or is at risk of developing a disorder, associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity. The disorders include metabolic disorders, diabetes, obesity, infectious disease, anorexia, cancer-associated cachexia, cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disorder, immune disorders, and hematopoietic disorders, and the various dyslipidemias, metabolic disturbances associated with obesity, the metabolic syndrome X and wasting disorders associated with chronic diseases and various cancers. The invention also provides for prognostic (or predictive) assays for determining whether an individual is at risk of developing a disorder associated with NOVX protein, nucleic acid expression or activity. For example, mutations in an NOVX gene can be assayed in a biological sample. Such assays can be used for prognostic or predictive purpose to thereby prophylactically treat an individual prior to the onset of a disorder characterized by or associated with NOVX protein, nucleic acid expression, or biological activity.

[0265] Another aspect of the invention provides methods for determining NOVX protein, nucleic acid expression or activity in an individual to thereby select appropriate therapeutic or prophylactic agents for that individual (referred to herein as “pharmacogenomics”). Pharmacogenomics allows for the selection of agents (e.g., drugs) for therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of an individual based on the genotype of the individual (e.g., the genotype of the individual examined to determine the ability of the individual to respond to a particular agent.)

[0266] Yet another aspect of the invention pertains to monitoring the influence of agents (e.g., drugs, compounds) on the expression or activity of NOVX in clinical trials.

[0267] These and other agents are described in further detail in the following sections.

[0268] Diagnostic Assays

[0269] An exemplary method for detecting the presence or absence of NOVX in a biological sample involves obtaining a biological sample from a test subject and contacting the biological sample with a compound or an agent capable of detecting NOVX protein or nucleic acid (e.g., mRNA, genomic DNA) that encodes NOVX protein such that the presence of NOVX is detected in the biological sample. An agent for detecting NOVX mRNA or genomic DNA is a labeled nucleic acid probe capable of hybridizing to NOVX mRNA or genomic DNA. The nucleic acid probe can be, for example, a full-length NOVX nucleic acid, such as the nucleic acid of SEQ ID NO: 2n−1, wherein n is an integer between 1 and 178, or a portion thereof, such as an oligonucleotide of at least 15, 30, 50, 100, 250 or 500 nucleotides in length and sufficient to specifically hybridize under stringent conditions to NOVX mRNA or genomic DNA. Other suitable probes for use in the diagnostic assays of the invention are described herein.

[0270] An agent for detecting NOVX protein is an antibody capable of binding to NOVX protein, preferably an antibody with a detectable label. Antibodies can be polyclonal, or more preferably, monoclonal. An intact antibody, or a fragment thereof (e.g., Fab or F(ab′)2) can be used. The term “labeled”, with regard to the probe or antibody, is intended to encompass direct labeling of the probe or antibody by coupling (ie., physically linking) a detectable substance to the probe or antibody, as well as indirect labeling of the probe or antibody by reactivity with another reagent that is directly labeled. Examples of indirect labeling include detection of a primary antibody using a fluorescently-labeled secondary antibody and end-labeling of a DNA probe with biotin such that it can be detected with fluorescently-labeled streptavidin. The term “biological sample” is intended to include tissues, cells and biological fluids isolated from a subject, as well as tissues, cells and fluids present within a subject. That is, the detection method of the invention can be used to detect NOVX mRNA, protein, or genomic DNA in a biological sample in vitro as well as in vivo. For example, in vitro techniques for detection of NOVX mRNA include Northern hybridizations and in situ hybridizations. In vitro techniques for detection of NOVX protein include enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), Western blots, immunoprecipitations, and immunofluorescence. In vitro techniques for detection of NOVX genomic DNA include Southern hybridizations. Furthermore, in vivo techniques for detection of NOVX protein include introducing into a subject a labeled anti-NOVX antibody. For example, the antibody can be labeled with a radioactive marker whose presence and location in a subject can be detected by standard imaging techniques.

[0271] In one embodiment, the biological sample contains protein molecules from the test subject. Alternatively, the biological sample can contain mRNA molecules from the test subject or genomic DNA molecules from the test subject. A preferred biological sample is a peripheral blood leukocyte sample isolated by conventional means from a subject.

[0272] In another embodiment, the methods further involve obtaining a control biological sample from a control subject, contacting the control sample with a compound or agent capable of detecting NOVX protein, mRNA, or genomic DNA, such that the presence of NOVX protein, mRNA or genomic DNA is detected in the biological sample, and comparing the presence of NOVX protein, mRNA or genomic DNA in the control sample with the presence of NOVX protein, mRNA or genomic DNA in the test sample.

[0273] The invention also encompasses kits for detecting the presence of NOVX in a biological sample. For example, the kit can comprise: a labeled compound or agent capable of detecting NOVX protein or mRNA in a biological sample; means for determining the amount of NOVX in the sample; and means for comparing the amount of NOVX in the sample with a standard. The compound or agent can be packaged in a suitable container. The kit can further comprise instructions for using the kit to detect NOVX protein or nucleic acid.

[0274] Prognostic Assays

[0275] The diagnostic methods described herein can furthermore be utilized to identify subjects having or at risk of developing a disease or disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity. For example, the assays described herein, such as the preceding diagnostic assays or the following assays, can be utilized to identify a subject having or at risk of developing a disorder associated with NOVX protein, nucleic acid expression or activity. Alternatively, the prognostic assays can be utilized to identify a subject having or at risk for developing a disease or disorder. Thus, the invention provides a method for identifying a disease or disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity in which a test sample is obtained from a subject and NOVX protein or nucleic acid (e.g., mRNA, genomic DNA) is detected, wherein the presence of NOVX protein or nucleic acid is diagnostic for a subject having or at risk of developing a disease or disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity. As used herein, a “test sample” refers to a biological sample obtained from a subject of interest. For example, a test sample can be a biological fluid (e.g., serum), cell sample, or tissue.

[0276] Furthermore, the prognostic assays described herein can be used to determine whether a subject can be administered an agent (e.g., an agonist, antagonist, peptidomimetic, protein, peptide, nucleic acid, small molecule, or other drug candidate) to treat a disease or disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity. For example, such methods can be used to determine whether a subject can be effectively treated with an agent for a disorder. Thus, the invention provides methods for determining whether a subject can be effectively treated with an agent for a disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity in which a test sample is obtained and NOVX protein or nucleic acid is detected (e.g., wherein the presence of NOVX protein or nucleic acid is diagnostic for a subject that can be administered the agent to treat a disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity).

[0277] The methods of the invention can also be used to detect genetic lesions in an NOVX gene, thereby determining if a subject with the lesioned gene is at risk for a disorder characterized by aberrant cell proliferation and/or differentiation. In various embodiments, the methods include detecting, in a sample of cells from the subject, the presence or absence of a genetic lesion characterized by at least one of an alteration affecting the integrity of a gene encoding an NOVX-protein, or the misexpression of the NOVX gene. For example, such genetic lesions can be detected by ascertaining the existence of at least one of: (i) a deletion of one or more nucleotides from an NOVX gene; (ii) an addition of one or more nucleotides to an NOVX gene; (iii) a substitution of one or more nucleotides of an NOVX gene, (iv) a chromosomal rearrangement of an NOVX gene; (v) an alteration in the level of a messenger RNA transcript of an NOVX gene, (vi) aberrant modification of an NOVX gene, such as of the methylation pattern of the genomic DNA, (vii) the presence of a non-wild-type splicing pattern of a messenger RNA transcript of an NOVX gene, (viii) a non-wild-type level of an NOVX protein, (ix) allelic loss of an NOVX gene, and (x) inappropriate post-translational modification of an NOVX protein. As described herein, there are a large number of assay techniques known in the art which can be used for detecting lesions in an NOVX gene. A preferred biological sample is a peripheral blood leukocyte sample isolated by conventional means from a subject. However, any biological sample containing nucleated cells may be used, including, for example, buccal mucosal cells.

[0278] In certain embodiments, detection of the lesion involves the use of a probe/primer in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,683,195 and 4,683,202), such as anchor PCR or RACE PCR, or, alternatively, in a ligation chain reaction (LCR) (see, e.g., Landegran, et al., 1988. Science 241: 1077-1080; and Nakazawa, et al., 1994. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91: 360-364), the latter of which can be particularly useful for detecting point mutations in the NOVX-gene (see, Abravaya, et al., 1995. Nucl. Acids Res. 23: 675-682). This method can include the steps of collecting a sample of cells from a patient, isolating nucleic acid (e.g., genomic, mRNA or both) from the cells of the sample, contacting the nucleic acid sample with one or more primers that specifically hybridize to an NOVX gene under conditions such that hybridization and amplification of the NOVX gene (if present) occurs, and detecting the presence or absence of an amplification product, or detecting the size of the amplification product and comparing the length to a control sample. It is anticipated that PCR and/or LCR may be desirable to use as a preliminary amplification step in conjunction with any of the techniques used for detecting mutations described herein.

[0279] Alternative amplification methods include: self sustained sequence replication (see, Guatelli, et al., 1990. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87: 1874-1878), transcriptional amplification system (see, Kwoh, et al., 1989. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86: 1173-1177); Qβ Replicase (see, Lizardi, et al, 1988. BioTechnology 6: 1197), or any other nucleic acid amplification method, followed by the detection of the amplified molecules using techniques well known to those of skill in the art. These detection schemes are especially useful for the detection of nucleic acid molecules if such molecules are present in very low numbers.

[0280] In an alternative embodiment, mutations in an NOVX gene from a sample cell can be identified by alterations in restriction enzyme cleavage patterns. For example, sample and control DNA is isolated, amplified (optionally), digested with one or more restriction endonucleases, and fragment length sizes are determined by gel electrophoresis and compared. Differences in fragment length sizes between sample and control DNA indicates mutations in the sample DNA. Moreover, the use of sequence specific ribozymes (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,493,531) can be used to score for the presence of specific mutations by development or loss of a ribozyme cleavage site.

[0281] In other embodiments, genetic mutations in NOVX can be identified by hybridizing a sample and control nucleic acids, e.g., DNA or RNA, to high-density arrays containing hundreds or thousands of oligonucleotides probes. See, e.g., Cronin, et al., 1996. Human Mutation 7: 244-255; Kozal, et al., 1996. Nat. Med. 2: 753-759. For example, genetic mutations in NOVX can be identified in two dimensional arrays containing light-generated DNA probes as described in Cronin, et al., supra. Briefly, a first hybridization array of probes can be used to scan through long stretches of DNA in a sample and control to identify base changes between the sequences by making linear arrays of sequential overlapping probes. This step allows the identification of point mutations. This is followed by a second hybridization array that allows the characterization of specific mutations by using smaller, specialized probe arrays complementary to all variants or mutations detected. Each mutation array is composed of parallel probe sets, one complementary to the wild-type gene and the other complementary to the mutant gene.

[0282] In yet another embodiment, any of a variety of sequencing reactions known in the art can be used to directly sequence the NOVX gene and detect mutations by comparing the sequence of the sample NOVX with the corresponding wild-type (control) sequence. Examples of sequencing reactions include those based on techniques developed by Maxim and Gilbert, 1977. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 74: 560 or Sanger, 1977. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 74: 5463. It is also contemplated that any of a variety of automated sequencing procedures can be utilized when performing the diagnostic assays (see, e.g., Naeve, et al., 1995. Biotechniques 19: 448), including sequencing by mass spectrometry (see, e.g., PCT International Publication No. WO 94/16101; Cohen, et al., 1996. Adv. Chromatography 36: 127-162; and Griffin, et al., 1993. Appl. Biochem. Biotechnol. 38: 147-159).

[0283] Other methods for detecting mutations in the NOVX gene include methods in which protection from cleavage agents is used to detect mismatched bases in RNA/RNA or RNA/DNA heteroduplexes. See, e.g., Myers, et al., 1985. Science 230: 1242. In general, the art technique of “mismatch cleavage” starts by providing heteroduplexes of formed by hybridizing (labeled) RNA or DNA containing the wild-type NOVX sequence with potentially mutant RNA or DNA obtained from a tissue sample. The double-stranded duplexes are treated with an agent that cleaves single-stranded regions of the duplex such as which will exist due to basepair mismatches between the control and sample strands. For instance, RNA/DNA duplexes can be treated with RNase and DNA/DNA hybrids treated with S1 nuclease to enzymatically digesting the mismatched regions. In other embodiments, either DNA/DNA or RNA/DNA duplexes can be treated with hydroxylamine or osmium tetroxide and with piperidine in order to digest mismatched regions. After digestion of the mismatched regions, the resulting material is then separated by size on denaturing polyacrylamide gels to determine the site of mutation. See, e.g., Cotton, et al., 1988. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85: 4397; Saleeba, et al., 1992. Methods Enzymol. 217: 286-295. In an embodiment, the control DNA or RNA can be labeled for detection.

[0284] In still another embodiment, the mismatch cleavage reaction employs one or more proteins that recognize mismatched base pairs in double-stranded DNA (so called “DNA mismatch repair” enzymes) in defined systems for detecting and mapping point mutations in NOVX cDNAs obtained from samples of cells. For example, the mutY enzyme of E. coli cleaves A at G/A mismatches and the thymidine DNA glycosylase from HeLa cells cleaves T at G/T mismatches. See, e.g., Hsu, et al., 1994. Carcinogenesis 15: 1657-1662. According to an exemplary embodiment, a probe based on an NOVX sequence, e.g. a wild-type NOVX sequence, is hybridized to a cDNA or other DNA product from a test cell(s). The duplex is treated with a DNA mismatch repair enzyme, and the cleavage products, if any, can be detected from electrophoresis protocols or the like. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,459,039.

[0285] In other embodiments, alterations in electrophoretic mobility will be used to identify mutations in NOVX genes. For example, single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) may be used to detect differences in electrophoretic mobility between mutant and wild type nucleic acids. See, e.g., Orita, et al., 1989. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA: 86: 2766; Cotton, 1993. Mutat. Res. 285: 125-144; Hayashi, 1992. Genet. Anal. Tech. Appl. 9: 73-79. Single-stranded DNA fragments of sample and control NOVX nucleic acids will be denatured and allowed to renature. The secondary structure of single-stranded nucleic acids varies according to sequence, the resulting alteration in electrophoretic mobility enables the detection of even a single base change. The DNA fragments may be labeled or detected with labeled probes. The sensitivity of the assay may be enhanced by using RNA (rather than DNA), in which the secondary structure is more sensitive to a change in sequence. In one embodiment, the subject method utilizes heteroduplex analysis to separate double stranded heteroduplex molecules on the basis of changes in electrophoretic mobility. See, e.g., Keen, et al., 1991. Trends Genet. 7: 5.

[0286] In yet another embodiment, the movement of mutant or wild-type fragments in polyacrylamide gels containing a gradient of denaturant is assayed using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). See, e.g., Myers, et al., 1985. Nature 313: 495. When DGGE is used as the method of analysis, DNA will be modified to insure that it does not completely denature, for example by adding a GC clamp of approximately 40 bp of high-melting GC-rich DNA by PCR. In a further embodiment, a temperature gradient is used in place of a denaturing gradient to identify differences in the mobility of control and sample DNA. See, e.g., Rosenbaum and Reissner, 1987. Biophys. Chem. 265: 12753.

[0287] Examples of other techniques for detecting point mutations include, but are not limited to, selective oligonucleotide hybridization, selective amplification, or selective primer extension. For example, oligonucleotide primers may be prepared in which the known mutation is placed centrally and then hybridized to target DNA under conditions that permit hybridization only if a perfect match is found. See, e.g., Saiki, et al., 1986. Nature 324: 163; Saiki, et al., 1989. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86: 6230. Such allele specific oligonucleotides are hybridized to PCR amplified target DNA or a number of different mutations when the oligonucleotides are attached to the hybridizing membrane and hybridized with labeled target DNA.

[0288] Alternatively, allele specific amplification technology that depends on selective PCR amplification may be used in conjunction with the instant invention. Oligonucleotides used as primers for specific amplification may carry the mutation of interest in the center of the molecule (so that amplification depends on differential hybridization; see, e.g., Gibbs, et al., 1989. Nucl. Acids Res. 17: 2437-2448) or at the extreme 3′-terminus of one primer where, under appropriate conditions, mismatch can prevent, or reduce polymerase extension (see, e.g., Prossner, 1993. Tibtech. 11: 238). In addition it may be desirable to introduce a novel restriction site in the region of the mutation to create cleavage-based detection. See, e.g., Gasparini, et al., 1992. Mol. Cell Probes 6: 1. It is anticipated that in certain embodiments amplification may also be performed using Taq ligase for amplification. See, e.g., Barany, 1991. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88: 189. In such cases, ligation will occur only if there is a perfect match at the 3′-terminus of the 5′ sequence, making it possible to detect the presence of a known mutation at a specific site by looking for the presence or absence of amplification.

[0289] The methods described herein may be performed, for example, by utilizing pre-packaged diagnostic kits comprising at least one probe nucleic acid or antibody reagent described herein, which may be conveniently used, e.g., in clinical settings to diagnose patients exhibiting symptoms or family history of a disease or illness involving an NOVX gene.

[0290] Furthermore, any cell type or tissue, preferably peripheral blood leukocytes, in which NOVX is expressed may be utilized in the prognostic assays described herein. However, any biological sample containing nucleated cells may be used, including, for example, buccal mucosal cells.

[0291] Pharmacogenomics

[0292] Agents, or modulators that have a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on NOVX activity (e.g., NOVX gene expression), as identified by a screening assay described herein can be administered to individuals to treat (prophylactically or therapeutically) disorders (The disorders include metabolic disorders, diabetes, obesity, infectious disease, anorexia, cancer-associated cachexia, cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disorder, immune disorders, and hematopoietic disorders, and the various dyslipidemias, metabolic disturbances associated with obesity, the metabolic syndrome X and wasting disorders associated with chronic diseases and various cancers.) In conjunction with such treatment, the pharmacogenomics (i.e., the study of the relationship between an individual's genotype and that individual's response to a foreign compound or drug) of the individual may be considered. Differences in metabolism of therapeutics can lead to severe toxicity or therapeutic failure by altering the relation between dose and blood concentration of the pharmacologically active drug. Thus, the pharmacogenomics of the individual permits the selection of effective agents (e.g., drugs) for prophylactic or therapeutic treatments based on a consideration of the individual's genotype. Such pharmacogenomics can further be used to determine appropriate dosages and therapeutic regimens. Accordingly, the activity of NOVX protein, expression of NOVX nucleic acid, or mutation content of NOVX genes in an individual can be determined to thereby select appropriate agent(s) for therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of the individual.

[0293] Pharmacogenomics deals with clinically significant hereditary variations in the response to drugs due to altered drug disposition and abnormal action in affected persons. See e.g., Eichelbaum, 1996. Clin. Exp. Pharmacol. Physiol., 23: 983-985; Linder, 1997. Clin. Chem., 43: 254-266. In general, two types of pharmacogenetic conditions can be differentiated. Genetic conditions transmitted as a single factor altering the way drugs act on the body (altered drug action) or genetic conditions transmitted as single factors altering the way the body acts on drugs (altered drug metabolism). These pharmacogenetic conditions can occur either as rare defects or as polymorphisms. For example, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common inherited enzymopathy in which the main clinical complication is hemolysis after ingestion of oxidant drugs (anti-malarials, sulfonamides, analgesics, nitrofurans) and consumption of fava beans.

[0294] As an illustrative embodiment, the activity of drug metabolizing enzymes is a major determinant of both the intensity and duration of drug action. The discovery of genetic polymorphisms of drug metabolizing enzymes (e.g., N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT 2) and cytochrome PREGNANCY ZONE PROTEIN PRECURSOR enzymes CYP2D6 and CYP2C19) has provided an explanation as to why some patients do not obtain the expected drug effects or show exaggerated drug response and serious toxicity after taking the standard and safe dose of a drug. These polymorphisms are expressed in two phenotypes in the population, the extensive metabolizer (EM) and poor metabolizer (PM). The prevalence of PM is different among different populations. For example, the gene coding for CYP2D6 is highly polymorphic and several mutations have been identified in PM, which all lead to the absence of functional CYP2D6. Poor metabolizers of CYP2D6 and CYP2C 19 quite frequently experience exaggerated drug response and side effects when they receive standard doses. If a metabolite is the active therapeutic moiety, PM show no therapeutic response, as demonstrated for the analgesic effect of codeine mediated by its CYP2D6-formed metabolite morphine. At the other extreme are the so called ultra-rapid metabolizers who do not respond to standard doses. Recently, the molecular basis of ultra-rapid metabolism has been identified to be due to CYP2D6 gene amplification. Thus, the activity of NOVX protein, expression of NOVX nucleic acid, or mutation content of NOVX genes in an individual can be determined to thereby select appropriate agent(s) for therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of the individual. In addition, pharmacogenetic studies can be used to apply genotyping of polymorphic alleles encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes to the identification of an individual's drug responsiveness phenotype. This knowledge, when applied to dosing or drug selection, can avoid adverse reactions or therapeutic failure and thus enhance therapeutic or prophylactic efficiency when treating a subject with an NOVX modulator, such as a modulator identified by one of the exemplary screening assays described herein.

[0295] Monitoring of Effects During Clinical Trials

[0296] Monitoring the influence of agents (e.g., drugs, compounds) on the expression or activity of NOVX (e.g., the ability to modulate aberrant cell proliferation and/or differentiation) can be applied not only in basic drug screening, but also in clinical trials.

[0297] For example, the effectiveness of an agent determined by a screening assay as described herein to increase NOVX gene expression, protein levels, or upregulate NOVX activity, can be monitored in clinical trails of subjects exhibiting decreased NOVX gene expression, protein levels, or downregulated NOVX activity. Alternatively, the effectiveness of an agent determined by a screening assay to decrease NOVX gene expression, protein levels, or downregulate NOVX activity, can be monitored in clinical trails of subjects exhibiting increased NOVX gene expression, protein levels, or upregulated NOVX activity. In such clinical trials, the expression or activity of NOVX and, preferably, other genes that have been implicated in, for example, a cellular proliferation or immune disorder can be used as a “read out” or markers of the immune responsiveness of a particular cell.

[0298] By way of example, and not of limitation, genes, including NOVX, that are modulated in cells by treatment with an agent (e.g., compound, drug or small molecule) that modulates NOVX activity (e.g., identified in a screening assay as described herein) can be identified. Thus, to study the effect of agents on cellular proliferation disorders, for example, in a clinical trial, cells can be isolated and RNA prepared and analyzed for the levels of expression of NOVX and other genes implicated in the disorder. The levels of gene expression (i.e., a gene expression pattern) can be quantified by Northern blot analysis or RT-PCR, as described herein, or alternatively by measuring the amount of protein produced, by one of the methods as described herein, or by measuring the levels of activity of NOVX or other genes. In this manner, the gene expression pattern can serve as a marker, indicative of the physiological response of the cells to the agent. Accordingly, this response state may be determined before, and at various points during, treatment of the individual with the agent.

[0299] In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for monitoring the effectiveness of treatment of a subject with an agent (e.g., an agonist, antagonist, protein, peptide, peptidomimetic, nucleic acid, small molecule, or other drug candidate identified by the screening assays described herein) comprising the steps of (i) obtaining a pre-administration sample from a subject prior to administration of the agent; (ii) detecting the level of expression of an NOVX protein, mRNA, or genomic DNA in the preadministration sample; (iii) obtaining one or more post-administration samples from the subject; (iv) detecting the level of expression or activity of the NOVX protein, mRNA, or genomic DNA in the post-administration samples; (v) comparing the level of expression or activity of the NOVX protein, mRNA, or genomic DNA in the pre-administration sample with the NOVX protein, mRNA, or genomic DNA in the post administration sample or samples; and (vi) altering the administration of the agent to the subject accordingly. For example, increased administration of the agent may be desirable to increase the expression or activity of NOVX to higher levels than detected, i.e., to increase the effectiveness of the agent. Alternatively, decreased administration of the agent may be desirable to decrease expression or activity of NOVX to lower levels than detected, i.e., to decrease the effectiveness of the agent.

[0300] Methods of Treatment

[0301] The invention provides for both prophylactic and therapeutic methods of treating a subject at risk of (or susceptible to) a disorder or having a disorder associated with aberrant NOVX expression or activity. The disorders include cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, hypertension, congenital heart defects, aortic stenosis, atrial septal defect (ASD), atrioventricular (A-V) canal defect, ductus arteriosus, pulmonary stenosis, subaortic stenosis, ventricular septal defect (VSD), valve diseases, tuberous sclerosis, scleroderma, obesity, transplantation, adrenoleukodystrophy, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, prostate cancer, neoplasm; adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, uterus cancer, fertility, hemophilia, hypercoagulation, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, immunodeficiencies, graft versus host disease, AIDS, bronchial asthma, Crohn's disease; multiple sclerosis, treatment of Albright Hereditary Ostoeodystrophy, and other diseases, disorders and conditions of the like.

[0302] These methods of treatment will be discussed more fully, below.

[0303] Disease and Disorders

[0304] Diseases and disorders that are characterized by increased (relative to a subject not suffering from the disease or disorder) levels or biological activity may be treated with Therapeutics that antagonize (i.e., reduce or inhibit) activity. Therapeutics that antagonize activity may be administered in a therapeutic or prophylactic manner. Therapeutics that may be utilized include, but are not limited to: (i) an aforementioned peptide, or analogs, derivatives, fragments or homologs thereof; (ii) antibodies to an aforementioned peptide; (iii) nucleic acids encoding an aforementioned peptide; (iv) administration of antisense nucleic acid and nucleic acids that are “dysfunctional” (i.e., due to a heterologous insertion within the coding sequences of coding sequences to an aforementioned peptide) that are utilized to “knockout” endogenous function of an aforementioned peptide by homologous recombination (see, e.g., Capecchi, 1989. Science 244: 1288-1292); or (v) modulators (i.e., inhibitors, agonists and antagonists, including additional peptide mimetic of the invention or antibodies specific to a peptide of the invention) that alter the interaction between an aforementioned peptide and its binding partner.

[0305] Diseases and disorders that are characterized by decreased (relative to a subject not suffering from the disease or disorder) levels or biological activity may be treated with Therapeutics that increase (ie., are agonists to) activity. Therapeutics that upregulate activity may be administered in a therapeutic or prophylactic manner. Therapeutics that may be utilized include, but are not limited to, an aforementioned peptide, or analogs, derivatives, fragments or homologs thereof; or an agonist that increases bioavailability.

[0306] Increased or decreased levels can be readily detected by quantifying peptide and/or RNA, by obtaining a patient tissue sample (e.g., from biopsy tissue) and assaying it in vitro for RNA or peptide levels, structure and/or activity of the expressed peptides (or mRNAs of an aforementioned peptide). Methods that are well-known within the art include, but are not limited to, immunoassays (e.g., by Western blot analysis, immunoprecipitation followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, immunocytochemistry, etc.) and/or hybridization assays to detect expression of mRNAs (e.g., Northern assays, dot blots, in situ hybridization, and the like).

[0307] Prophylactic Methods

[0308] In one aspect, the invention provides a method for preventing, in a subject, a disease or condition associated with an aberrant NOVX expression or activity, by administering to the subject an agent that modulates NOVX expression or at least one NOVX activity. Subjects at risk for a disease that is caused or contributed to by aberrant NOVX expression or activity can be identified by, for example, any or a combination of diagnostic or prognostic assays as described herein. Administration of a prophylactic agent can occur prior to the manifestation of symptoms characteristic of the NOVX aberrancy, such that a disease or disorder is prevented or, alternatively, delayed in its progression. Depending upon the type of NOVX aberrancy, for example, an NOVX agonist or NOVX antagonist agent can be used for treating the subject. The appropriate agent can be determined based on screening assays described herein. The prophylactic methods of the invention are further discussed in the following subsections.

[0309] Therapeutic Methods

[0310] Another aspect of the invention pertains to methods of modulating NOVX expression or activity for therapeutic purposes. The modulatory method of the invention involves contacting a cell with an agent that modulates one or more of the activities of NOVX protein activity associated with the cell. An agent that modulates NOVX protein activity can be an agent as described herein, such as a nucleic acid or a protein, a naturally-occurring cognate ligand of an NOVX protein, a peptide, an NOVX peptidomimetic, or other small molecule. In one embodiment, the agent stimulates one or more NOVX protein activity. Examples of such stimulatory agents include active NOVX protein and a nucleic acid molecule encoding NOVX that has been introduced into the cell. In another embodiment, the agent inhibits one or more NOVX protein activity. Examples of such inhibitory agents include antisense NOVX nucleic acid molecules and anti-NOVX antibodies. These modulatory methods can be performed in vitro (e.g., by culturing the cell with the agent) or, alternatively, in vivo (e.g., by administering the agent to a subject). As such, the invention provides methods of treating an individual afflicted with a disease or disorder characterized by aberrant expression or activity of an NOVX protein or nucleic acid molecule. In one embodiment, the method involves administering an agent (e.g., an agent identified by a screening assay described herein), or combination of agents that modulates (e.g., up-regulates or down-regulates) NOVX expression or activity. In another embodiment, the method involves administering an NOVX protein or nucleic acid molecule as therapy to compensate for reduced or aberrant NOVX expression or activity.

[0311] Stimulation of NOVX activity is desirable in situations in which NOVX is abnormally downregulated and/or in which increased NOVX activity is likely to have a beneficial effect. One example of such a situation is where a subject has a disorder characterized by aberrant cell proliferation and/or differentiation (e.g., cancer or immune associated disorders). Another example of such a situation is where the subject has a gestational disease (e.g., preclampsia).

[0312] Determination of the Biological Effect of the Therapeutic

[0313] In various embodiments of the invention, suitable in vitro or in vivo assays are performed to determine the effect of a specific Therapeutic and whether its administration is indicated for treatment of the affected tissue.

[0314] In various specific embodiments, in vitro assays may be performed with representative cells of the type(s) involved in the patient's disorder, to determine if a given Therapeutic exerts the desired effect upon the cell type(s). Compounds for use in therapy may be tested in suitable animal model systems including, but not limited to rats, mice, chicken, cows, monkeys, rabbits, and the like, prior to testing in human subjects. Similarly, for in vivo testing, any of the animal model system known in the art may be used prior to administration to human subjects.

[0315] Prophylactic and Therapeutic Uses of the Compositions of the Invention

[0316] The NOVX nucleic acids and proteins of the invention are useful in potential prophylactic and therapeutic applications implicated in a variety of disorders including, but not limited to: metabolic disorders, diabetes, obesity, infectious disease, anorexia, cancer-associated cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disorder, immune disorders, hematopoietic disorders, and the various dyslipidemias, metabolic disturbances associated with obesity, the metabolic syndrome X and wasting disorders associated with chronic diseases and various cancers.

[0317] As an example, a cDNA encoding the NOVX protein of the invention may be useful in gene therapy, and the protein may be useful when administered to a subject in need thereof. By way of non-limiting example, the compositions of the invention will have efficacy for treatment of patients suffering from: metabolic disorders, diabetes, obesity, infectious disease, anorexia, cancer-associated cachexia, cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disorder, immune disorders, hematopoietic disorders, and the various dyslipidemias.

[0318] Both the novel nucleic acid encoding the NOVX protein, and the NOVX protein of the invention, or fragments thereof, may also be useful in diagnostic applications, wherein the presence or amount of the nucleic acid or the protein are to be assessed. A further use could be as an anti-bacterial molecule (i.e., some peptides have been found to possess anti-bacterial properties). These materials are further useful in the generation of antibodies, which immunospecifically-bind to the novel substances of the invention for use in therapeutic or diagnostic methods.

[0319] Sequence Analyses

[0320] The sequence of NOVX was derived by laboratory cloning of cDNA fragments, by in silico prediction of the sequence. cDNA fragments covering either the full length of the DNA sequence, or part of the sequence, or both, were cloned. In silico prediction was based on sequences available in CuraGen's proprietary sequence databases or in the public human sequence databases, and provided either the full length DNA sequence, or some portion thereof.

[0321] The laboratory cloning was performed using one or more of the methods summarized below:

[0322] SeqCalling™Technology: cDNA was derived from various human samples representing multiple tissue types, normal and diseased states, physiological states, and developmental states from different donors. Samples were obtained as whole tissue, primary cells or tissue cultured primary cells or cell lines. Cells and cell lines may have been treated with biological or chemical agents that regulate gene expression, for example, growth factors, chemokines or steroids. The cDNA thus derived was then sequenced using CuraGen Corporation's SeqCalling technology which is disclosed in full in U.S. Ser. No. 09/417,386 filed Oct. 13, 1999, and Ser. No. 09/614,505 filed Jul. 11, 2000. Sequence traces were evaluated manually and edited for corrections if appropriate. cDNA sequences from all samples were assembled together, sometimes including public human sequences, using bioinformatics programs to produce a consensus sequence for each assembly. Each assembly is included in CuraGen Corporation's database. Sequences were included as components for assembly when the extent of identity with another component was at least 95% over 50 bp. Each assembly represents a gene or portion thereof and includes information on variants, such as splice forms single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, deletions and other sequence variations.

[0323] Variant sequences are also included in this application. A variant sequence can include a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). A SNP can, in some instances, be referred to as a “cSNP” to denote that the nucleotide sequence containing the SNP originates as a cDNA. A SNP can arise in several ways. For example, a SNP may be due to a substitution of one nucleotide for another at the polymorphic site. Such a substitution can be either a transition or a transversion. A SNP can also arise from a deletion of a nucleotide or an insertion of a nucleotide, relative to a reference allele. In this case, the polymorphic site is a site at which one allele bears a gap with respect to a particular nucleotide in another allele. SNPs occurring within genes may result in an alteration of the amino acid encoded by the gene at the position of the SNP. Intragenic SNPs may also be silent, when a codon including a SNP encodes the same amino acid as a result of the redundancy of the genetic code. SNPs occurring outside the region of a gene, or in an intron within a gene, do not result in changes in any amino acid sequence of a protein but may result in altered regulation of the expression pattern. Examples include alteration in temporal expression, physiological response regulation, cell type expression regulation, intensity of expression, and stability of transcribed message.

[0324] Presented information includes that associated with genomic clones, public genes and ESTs sharing sequence identity with the disclosed sequence and CuraGen Corporation's Electronic Northern bioinformatic tool.

Sequencing Methodology and Identofication of NOVX Clones

[0995] 1. GeneCalling™ Technology: This is a proprietary method of performing differential gene expression profiling between two or more samples developed at CuraGen and described by Shimkets, et al., “Gene expression analysis by transcript profiling coupled to a gene database query” Nature Biotechnology 17:198-803 (1999). cDNA was derived from various human samples representing multiple tissue types, normal and diseased states, physiological states, and developmental states from different donors. Samples were obtained as whole tissue, primary cells or tissue cultured primary cells or cell lines. Cells and cell lines may have been treated with biological or chemical agents that regulate gene expression, for example, growth factors, chemokines or steroids. The cDNA thus derived was then digested with up to as many as 120 pairs of restriction enzymes and pairs of linker-adaptors specific for each pair of restriction enzymes were ligated to the appropriate end. The restriction digestion generates a mixture of unique cDNA gene fragments. Limited PCR amplification is performed with primers homologous to the linker adapter sequence where one primer is biotinylated and the other is fluorescently labeled. The doubly labeled material is isolated and the fluorescently labeled single strand is resolved by capillary gel electrophoresis. A computer algorithm compares the electropherograms from an experimental and control group for each of the restriction digestions. This and additional sequence-derived information is used to predict the identity of each differentially expressed gene fragment using a variety of genetic databases. The identity of the gene fragment is confirmed by additional, gene-specific competitive PCR or by isolation and sequencing of the gene fragment.

[0996] 2. SeqCalling™ Technology: cDNA was derived from various human samples representing multiple tissue types, normal and diseased states, physiological states, and developmental states from different donors. Samples were obtained as whole tissue, primary cells or tissue cultured primary cells or cell lines. Cells and cell lines may have been treated with biological or chemical agents that regulate gene expression, for example, growth factors, chemokines or steroids. The cDNA thus derived was then sequenced using CuraGen's proprietary SeqCalling technology. Sequence traces were evaluated manually and edited for corrections if appropriate. cDNA sequences from all samples were assembled together, sometimes including public human sequences, using bioinformatic programs to produce a consensus sequence for each assembly. Each assembly is included in CuraGen Corporation's database. Sequences were included as components for assembly when the extent of identity with another component was at least 95% over 50 bp. Each assembly represents a gene or portion thereof and includes information on variants, such as splice forms single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, deletions and other sequence variations.

[0997] 3. PathCalling™ Technology:

[0998] The NOVX nucleic acid sequences are derived by laboratory screening of cDNA library by the two-hybrid approach. cDNA fragments covering either the full length of the DNA sequence, or part of the sequence, or both, are sequenced. In silico prediction was based on sequences available in CuraGen Corporation's proprietary sequence databases or in the public human sequence databases, and provided either the full length DNA sequence, or some portion thereof.

[0999] The laboratory screening was performed using the methods summarized below:

[1000] cDNA libraries were derived from various human samples representing multiple tissue types, normal and diseased states, physiological states, and developmental states from different donors. Samples were obtained as whole tissue, primary cells or tissue cultured primary cells or cell lines. Cells and cell lines may have been treated with biological or chemical agents that regulate gene expression, for example, growth factors, chemokines or steroids. The cDNA thus derived was then directionally cloned into the appropriate two-hybrid vector (Gal4-activation domain (Gal4-AD) fusion). Such cDNA libraries as well as commercially available cDNA libraries from Clontech (Palo Alto, Calif.) were then transferred from E. coli into a CuraGen Corporation proprietary yeast strain (disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,057,101 and 6,083,693, incorporated herein by reference in their entireties).

[1001] Gal4-binding domain (Gal4-BD) fusions of a CuraGen Corportion proprietary library of human sequences was used to screen multiple Gal4-AD fusion cDNA libraries resulting in the selection of yeast hybrid diploids in each of which the Gal4-AD fusion contains an individual cDNA. Each sample was amplified using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using non-specific primers at the cDNA insert boundaries. Such PCR product was sequenced; sequence traces were evaluated manually and edited for corrections if appropriate. cDNA sequences from all samples were assembled together, sometimes including public human sequences, using bioinformatic programs to produce a consensus sequence for each assembly. Each assembly is included in CuraGen Corporation's database. Sequences were included as components for assembly when the extent of identity with another component was at least 95% over 50 bp. Each assembly represents a gene or portion thereof and includes information on variants, such as splice forms single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, deletions and other sequence variations.

[1002] Physical clone: the cDNA fragment derived by the screening procedure, covering the entire open reading frame is, as a recombinant DNA, cloned into pACT2 plasmid (Clontech) used to make the cDNA library. The recombinant plasmid is inserted into the host and selected by the yeast hybrid diploid generated during the screening procedure by the mating of both CuraGen Corporation proprietary yeast strains N106′ and YULH (U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,057,101 and 6,083,693).

[1003] 4. RACE: Techniques based on the polymerase chain reaction such as rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), were used to isolate or complete the predicted sequence of the cDNA of the invention. Usually multiple clones were sequenced from one or more human samples to derive the sequences for fragments. Various human tissue samples from different donors were used for the RACE reaction. The sequences derived from these procedures were included in the SeqCalling Assembly process described in preceding paragraphs.

[1004] 5. Exon Linking: The NOVX target sequences identified in the present invention were subjected to the exon linking process to confirm the sequence. PCR primers were designed by starting at the most upstream sequence available, for the forward primer, and at the most downstream sequence available for the reverse primer. Table B1 shows the sequences of the PCR primers used for obtaining different clones. In each case, the sequence was examined, walking inward from the respective termini toward the coding sequence, until a suitable sequence that is either unique or highly selective was encountered, or, in the case of the reverse primer, until the stop codon was reached. Such primers were designed based on in silico predictions for the full length cDNA, part (one or more exons) of the DNA or protein sequence of the target sequence, or by translated homology of the predicted exons to closely related human sequences from other species. These primers were then employed in PCR amplification based on the following pool of human cDNAs: adrenal gland, bone marrow, brain—amygdala, brain—cerebellum, brain—hippocampus, brain—substantia nigra, brain—thalamus, brain—whole, fetal brain, fetal kidney, fetal liver, fetal lung, heart, kidney, lymphoma—Raji, mammary gland, pancreas, pituitary gland, placenta, prostate, salivary gland, skeletal muscle, small intestine, spinal cord, spleen, stomach, testis, thyroid, trachea, uterus. Usually the resulting amplicons were gel purified, cloned and sequenced to high redundancy. The PCR product derived from exon linking was cloned into the pCR2.1 vector from Invitrogen. The resulting bacterial clone has an insert covering the entire open reading frame cloned into the pCR2.1 vector. The resulting sequences from all clones were assembled with themselves, with other fragments in CuraGen Corporation's database and with public ESTs. Fragments and ESTs were included as components for an assembly when the extent of their identity with another component of the assembly was at least 95% over 50 bp. In addition, sequence traces were evaluated manually and edited for corrections if appropriate. These procedures provide the sequence reported herein.

[1005] 6. Physical Clone:

[1006] Exons were predicted by homology and the intron/exon boundaries were determined using standard genetic rules. Exons were further selected and refined by means of similarity determination using multiple BLAST (for example, tBlastN, BlastX, and BlastN) searches, and, in some instances, GeneScan and Grail. Expressed sequences from both public and proprietary databases were also added when available to further define and complete the gene sequence. The DNA sequence was then manually corrected for apparent inconsistencies thereby obtaining the sequences encoding the full-length protein.

[1007] The PCR product derived by exon linking, covering the entire open reading frame, was cloned into the pCR2.1 vector from Invitrogen to provide clones used for expression and screening purposes.

Example C

Quantitative Expression Analysis of Clones in Various Cells and Tissues

[1008] The quantitative expression of various clones was assessed using microtiter plates containing RNA samples from a variety of normal and pathology-derived cells, cell lines and tissues using real time quantitative PCR (RTQ PCR). RTQ PCR was performed on an Applied Biosystems ABI PRISM® 7700 or an ABI PRISM® 7900 HT Sequence Detection System. Various collections of samples are assembled on the plates, and referred to as Panel 1 (containing normal tissues and cancer cell lines), Panel 2 (containing samples derived from tissues from normal and cancer sources), Panel 3 (containing cancer cell lines), Panel 4 (containing cells and cell lines from normal tissues and cells related to inflammatory conditions), Panel 5D/5I (containing human tissues and cell lines with an emphasis on metabolic diseases), AI_comprehensive_panel (containing normal tissue and samples from autoimmune diseases), Panel CNSD.01 (containing central nervous system samples from normal and diseased brains) and CNS_neurodegeneration_panel (containing samples from normal and Alzheimer's diseased brains).

[1009] RNA integrity from all samples is controlled for quality by visual assessment of agarose gel electropherograms using 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA staining intensity ratio as a guide (2:1 to 2.5:1 28s:18s) and the absence of low molecular weight RNAs that would be indicative of degradation products. Samples are controlled against genomic DNA contamination by RTQ PCR reactions run in the absence of reverse transcriptase using probe and primer sets designed to amplify across the span of a single exon.

[1010] First, the RNA samples were normalized to reference nucleic acids such as constitutively expressed genes (for example, β-actin and GAPDH). Normalized RNA (5 ul) was converted to cDNA and analyzed by RTQ-PCR using One Step RT-PCR Master Mix Reagents (Applied Biosystems; Catalog No. 4309169) and gene-specific primers according to the manufacturer's instructions.

[1011] In other cases, non-normalized RNA samples were converted to single strand cDNA (sscDNA) using Superscript II (Invitrogen Corporation; Catalog No. 18064-147) and random hexamers according to the manufacturer's instructions. Reactions containing up to 10 μg of total RNA were performed in a volume of 20 μl and incubated for 60 minutes at 42° C. This reaction can be scaled up to 50 μg of total RNA in a final volume of 100 μl. sscDNA samples are then normalized to reference nucleic acids as described previously, using 1×TaqMan® Universal Master mix (Applied Biosystems; catalog No. 4324020), following the manufacturer's instructions.

[1012] Probes and primers were designed for each assay according to Applied Biosystems Primer Express Software package (version I for Apple Computer's Macintosh Power PC) or a similar algorithm using the target sequence as input. Default settings were used for reaction conditions and the following parameters were set before selecting primers: primer concentration=250 nM, primer melting temperature (Tm) range=58°-60° C., primer optimal Tm=59° C., maximum primer difference=2° C., probe does not have 5′G, probe Tm must be 10° C. greater than primer Tm, amplicon size 75 bp to 100 bp. The probes and primers selected (see below) were synthesized by Synthegen (Houston, Tex., USA). Probes were double purified by HPLC to remove uncoupled dye and evaluated by mass spectroscopy to verify coupling of reporter and quencher dyes to the 5′ and 3′ ends of the probe, respectively. Their final concentrations were: forward and reverse primers, 900 nM each, and probe, 200 nM.

[1013] PCR conditions: When working with RNA samples, normalized RNA from each tissue and each cell line was spotted in each well of either a 96 well or a 384-well PCR plate (Applied Biosystems). PCR cocktails included either a single gene specific probe and primers set, or two multiplexed probe and primers sets (a set specific for the target clone and another gene-specific set multiplexed with the target probe). PCR reactions were set up using TaqMan® One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems, Catalog No. 4313803) following manufacturer's instructions. Reverse transcription was performed at 48° C. for 30 minutes followed by amplification/PCR cycles as follows: 95° C. 10 min, then 40 cycles of 95° C. for 15 seconds, 60° C. for 1 minute. Results were recorded as CT values (cycle at which a given sample crosses a threshold level of fluorescence) using a log scale, with the difference in RNA concentration between a given sample and the sample with the lowest CT value being represented as 2 to the power of delta CT. The percent relative expression is then obtained by taking the reciprocal of this RNA difference and multiplying by 100.

[1014] When working with sscDNA samples, normalized sscDNA was used as described previously for RNA samples. PCR reactions containing one or two sets of probe and primers were set up as described previously, using 1×TaqMan® Universal Master mix (Applied Biosystems; catalog No. 4324020), following the manufacturer's instructions. PCR amplification was performed as follows: 95° C. 10 min, then 40 cycles of 95° C. for 15 seconds, 60° C. for 1 minute. Results were analyzed and processed as described previously.

[1015] Panels 1, 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3D

[1016] The plates for Panels 1, 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3D include 2 control wells (genomic DNA control and chemistry control) and 94 wells containing cDNA from various samples. The samples in these panels are broken into 2 classes: samples derived from cultured cell lines and samples derived from primary normal tissues. The cell lines are derived from cancers of the following types: lung cancer, breast cancer, melanoma, colon cancer, prostate cancer, CNS cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, ovarian cancer, liver cancer, renal cancer, gastric cancer and pancreatic cancer. Cell lines used in these panels are widely available through the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), a repository for cultured cell lines, and were cultured using the conditions recommended by the ATCC. The normal tissues found on these panels are comprised of samples derived from all major organ systems from single adult individuals or fetuses. These samples are derived from the following organs: adult skeletal muscle, fetal skeletal muscle, adult heart, fetal heart, adult kidney, fetal kidney, adult liver, fetal liver, adult lung, fetal lung, various regions of the brain, the spleen, bone marrow, lymph node, pancreas, salivary gland, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, spinal cord, thymus, stomach, small intestine, colon, bladder, trachea, breast, ovary, uterus, placenta, prostate, testis and adipose.

[1028] General_screening_panel_v0.4

[1029] The plates for Panel 1.4 include 2 control wells (genomic DNA control and chemistry control) and 94 wells containing cDNA from various samples. The samples in Panel 1.4 are broken into 2 classes: samples derived from cultured cell lines and samples derived from primary normal tissues. The cell lines are derived from cancers of the following types: lung cancer, breast cancer, melanoma, colon cancer, prostate cancer, CNS cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, ovarian cancer, liver cancer, renal cancer, gastric cancer and pancreatic cancer. Cell lines used in Panel 1.4 are widely available through the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), a repository for cultured cell lines, and were cultured using the conditions recommended by the ATCC. The normal tissues found on Panel 1.4 are comprised of pools of samples derived from all major organ systems from 2 to 5 different adult individuals or fetuses. These samples are derived from the following organs: adult skeletal muscle, fetal skeletal muscle, adult heart, fetal heart, adult kidney, fetal kidney, adult liver, fetal liver, adult lung, fetal lung, various regions of the brain, the spleen, bone marrow, lymph node, pancreas, salivary gland, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, spinal cord, thymus, stomach, small intestine, colon, bladder, trachea, breast, ovary, uterus, placenta, prostate, testis and adipose. Abbreviations are as described for Panels 1, 1.1, 1.2, and 1.31).

[1030] Panels 2D and 2.2

[1031] The plates for Panels 2D and 2.2 generally include 2 control wells and 94 test samples; composed of RNA or cDNA isolated from human tissue procured by surgeons working in close cooperation with the National Cancer Institute's Cooperative Human Tissue Network (CHTN) or the National Disease Research Initiative (NDRI). The tissues are derived from human malignancies and in cases where indicated many malignant tissues have “matched margins” obtained from noncancerous tissue just adjacent to the tumor. These are termed normal adjacent tissues and are denoted “NAT” in the results below. The tumor tissue and the “matched margins” are evaluated by two independent pathologists (the surgical pathologists and again by a pathologist at NDRI or CHTN). This analysis provides a gross histopathological assessment of tumor differentiation grade. Moreover, most samples include the original surgical pathology report that provides information regarding the clinical stage of the patient. These matched margins are taken from the tissue surrounding (i.e. immediately proximal) to the zone of surgery (designated “NAT”, for normal adjacent tissue, in Table RR). In addition, RNA and cDNA samples were obtained from various human tissues derived from autopsies performed on elderly people or sudden death victims (accidents, etc.). These tissues were ascertained to be free of disease and were purchased from various commercial sources such as Clontech (Palo Alto, Calif.), Research Genetics, and Invitrogen.

[1032] Panel 3D

[1033] The plates of Panel 3D are comprised of 94 cDNA samples and two control samples. Specifically, 92 of these samples are derived from cultured human cancer cell lines, 2 samples of human primary cerebellar tissue and 2 controls. The human cell lines are generally obtained from ATCC (American Type Culture Collection), NCI or the German tumor cell bank and fall into the following tissue groups: Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue, breast cancer, prostate cancer, melanoma, epidermoid carcinoma, sarcomas, bladder carcinomas, pancreatic cancers, kidney cancers, leukemias/lymphomas, ovarian/uterine/cervical, gastric, colon, lung and CNS cancer cell lines. In addition, there are two independent samples of cerebellum. These cells are all cultured under standard recommended conditions and RNA extracted using the standard procedures. The cell lines in panel 3D and 1.3D are of the most common cell lines used in the scientific literature.

[1034] Panels 4D, 4R, and 4.1D

[1035] Panel 4 includes samples on a 96 well plate (2 control wells, 94 test samples) composed of RNA (Panel 4R) or cDNA (Panels 4D/4.1D) isolated from various human cell lines or tissues related to inflammatory conditions. Total RNA from control normal tissues such as colon and lung (Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif.) and thymus and kidney (Clontech) was employed. Total RNA from liver tissue from cirrhosis patients and kidney from lupus patients was obtained from BioChain (Biochain Institute, Inc., Hayward, Calif.). Intestinal tissue for RNA preparation from patients diagnosed as having Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis was obtained from the National Disease Research Interchange (NDRI) (Philadelphia, Pa.).

[1036] Astrocytes, lung fibroblasts, dermal fibroblasts, coronary artery smooth muscle cells, small airway epithelium, bronchial epithelium, microvascular dermal endothelial cells, microvascular lung endothelial cells, human pulmonary aortic endothelial cells, human umbilical vein endothelial cells were all purchased from Clonetics (Walkersville, Md.) and grown in the media supplied for these cell types by Clonetics. These primary cell types were activated with various cytokines or combinations of cytokines for 6 and/or 12-14 hours, as indicated. The following cytokines were used; IL-1 beta at approximately 1-5 ng/ml, TNF alpha at approximately 5-10 ng/ml, IFN gamma at approximately 20-50 ng/ml, IL-4 at approximately 5-10 ng/ml, IL-9 at approximately 5-10 ng/ml, IL-13 at approximately 5-10 ng/ml. Endothelial cells were sometimes starved for various times by culture in the basal media from Clonetics with 0.1% serum.

[1037] Mononuclear cells were prepared from blood of employees at CuraGen Corporation, using Ficoll. LAK cells were prepared from these cells by culture in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco/Life Technologies, Rockville, Md.), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and Interleukin 2 for 4-6 days. Cells were then either activated with 10-20 ng/ml PMA and 1-2 μg/ml ionomycin, IL-12 at 5-10 ng/ml, IFN gamma at 20-50 ng/ml and IL-18 at 5-10 ng/ml for 6 hours. In some cases, mononuclear cells were cultured for 4-5 days in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) with PEA (phytohemagglutinin) or PWM (pokeweed mitogen) at approximately 5 μg/ml. Samples were taken at 24, 48 and 72 hours for RNA preparation. MLR (mixed lymphocyte reaction) samples were obtained by taking blood from two donors, isolating the mononuclear cells using Ficoll and mixing the isolated mononuclear cells 1:1 at a final concentration of approximately 2×106cells/ml in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol (5.5×10−5M) (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco). The MLR was cultured and samples taken at various time points ranging from 1-7 days for RNA preparation.

[1038] Monocytes were isolated from mononuclear cells using CD14 Miltenyi Beads, +ve VS selection columns and a Vario Magnet according to the manufacturer's instructions. Monocytes were differentiated into dendritic cells by culture in DMEM 5% fetal calf serum (FCS) (Hyclone, Logan, Utah), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco), 50 ng/ml GMCSFs and 5 ng/ml IL-4 for 5-7 days. Macrophages were prepared by culture of monocytes for 5-7 days in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and 10% AB Human Serum or MCSF at approximately 50 ng/ml. Monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells were stimulated for 6 and 12-14 hours with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at 100 ng/ml. Dendritic cells were also stimulated with anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody (Pharmingen) at 10 μg/ml for 6 and 12-14 hours.

[1039] CD4 lymphocytes, CD8 lymphocytes and NK cells were also isolated from mononuclear cells using CD4, CD8 and CD56 Miltenyi beads, positive VS selection column!; and a Vario Magnet according to the manufacturer's instructions. CD45RA and CD45RO CD4 lymphocytes were isolated by depleting mononuclear cells of CD8, CD56, CD14 and CD19 cells using CD8, CD56, CD14 and CD19 Miltenyi beads and positive selection. CD45RO beads were then used to isolate the CD45RO CD4 lymphocytes with the remaining cells being CD45RA CD4 lymphocytes. CD45RA CD4, CD45RO CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes were placed in DMBM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100AM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and plated at 106cells/ml onto Falcon 6 well tissue culture plates that had been coated overnight with 0.5 ug/ml anti-CD28 (Pharmingen) and 3 ug/ml anti-CD3 (OKT3, ATCC) in PBS. After 6 and 24 hours, the cells were harvested for RNA preparation. To prepare chronically activated CD8 lymphocytes, we activated the isolated CD8 lymphocytes for 4 days on anti-CD28 and anti-CD3 coated plates and then harvested the cells and expanded them in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×105M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and IL-2. The expanded CD8 cells were then activated again with plate bound anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 for 4 days and expanded as before. RNA was isolated 6 and 24 hours after the second activation and after 4 days of the second expansion culture. The isolated NK cells were cultured in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and IL-2 for 4-6 days before RNA was prepared.

[1040] To obtain B cells, tonsils were procured from NDRI. The tonsil was cut up with sterile dissecting scissors and then passed through a sieve. Tonsil cells were then spun down and resupended at 106cells/ml in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco). To activate the cells, we used PWM at 5 μg/ml or anti-CD40 (Pharmingen) at approximately 10 μg/ml and IL-4 at 5-10 ng/ml. Cells were harvested for RNA preparation at 24, 48 and 72 hours.

[1041] To prepare the primary and secondary Th1/Th2 and Tr1 cells, six-well Falcon plates were coated overnight with 101 g/ml anti-CD28 (Pharmingen) and 2 μg/ml OKT3 (ATCC), and then washed twice with PBS. Umbilical cord blood CD4 lymphocytes (Poietic Systems, German Town, Md.) were cultured at 105-106cells/ml in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and IL-2 (4 ng/ml). IL-12 (5 ng/ml) and anti-IL4 (1 μg/ml) were used to direct to Th1, while IL-4 (5 ng/ml) and anti-IFN gamma (1 μg/ml) were used to direct to Th2 and IL-10 at 5 ng/ml was used to direct to Tr1. After 4-5 days, the activated Th1, Th2 and Tr1 lymphocytes were washed once in DMEM and expanded for 4-7 days in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 1001M non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), 10 mM Hepes (Gibco) and IL-2 (1 ng/ml). Following this, the activated Th1, Th2 and Tr1 lymphocytes were re-stimulated for 5 days with anti-CD28/OKT3 and cytokines as described above, but with the addition of anti-CD95L (11 g/ml) to prevent apoptosis. After 4-5 days, the Th1, Th2 and Tr1 lymphocytes were washed and then expanded again with IL-2 for 4-7 days. Activated Th1 and Th2 lymphocytes were maintained in this way for a maximum of three cycles. RNA was prepared from primary and secondary Th1, Th2 and Tr1 after 6 and 24 hours following the second and third activations with plate bound anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 mAbs and 4 days into the second and third expansion cultures in Interleukin 2.

[1042] The following leukocyte cells lines were obtained from the ATCC: Ramos, EOL-1, KU-812. EOL cells were further differentiated by culture in 0.1 mM dbcAMP at 5×105cells/ml for 8 days, changing the media every 3 days and adjusting the cell concentration to 5×105cells/ml. For the culture of these cells, we used DMEM or RPMI (as recommended by the ATCC), with the addition of 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), 10 mM Hepes (Gibco). RNA was either prepared from resting cells or cells activated with PMA at 10 ng/ml and ionomycin at 1 μg/ml for 6 and 14 hours. Keratinocyte line CCD106 and an airway epithelial tumor line NCI-H292 were also obtained from the ATCC. Both were cultured in DMEM 5% FCS (Hyclone), 100 μM non essential amino acids (Gibco), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Gibco), mercaptoethanol 5.5×10−5M (Gibco), and 10 mM Hepes (Gibco). CCD1106 cells were activated for 6 and 14 hours with approximately 5 ng/ml TNF alpha and 1 ng/ml IL-1 beta, while NCI-H292 cells were activated for 6 and 14 hours with the following cytokines: 5 ng/ml IL-4, 5 ng/ml IL-9, 5 ng/ml IL-13 and 25 ng/ml IFN gamma.

[1043] For these cell lines and blood cells, RNA was prepared by lysing approximately 107cells/ml using Trizol (Gibco BRL). Briefly, {fraction (1/10)} volume of bromochloropropane (Molecular Research Corporation) was added to the RNA sample, vortexed and after 10 minutes at room temperature, the tubes were spun at 14,000 rpm in a Sorvall SS34 rotor. The aqueous phase was removed and placed in a 15 ml Falcon Tube. An equal volume of isopropanol was added and left at −20° C. overnight. The precipitated RNA was spun down at 9,000 rpm for 15 min in a Sorvall SS34 rotor and washed in 70% ethanol. The pellet was redissolved in 300 μl of RNAse-free water and 35 μl buffer (Promega) 5 μl DTT, 7 μl RNAsin and 8 μl DNAse were added. The tube was incubated at 37° C. for 30 minutes to remove contaminating genomic DNA, extracted once with phenol chloroform and re-precipitated with {fraction (1/10)} volume of 3M sodium acetate and 2 volumes of 100% ethanol. The RNA was spun down and placed in RNAse free water. RNA was stored at −80° C.

[1044] AI_comprehensive panel_v1.0

[1045] The plates for AI_comprehensive panel_v1.0 include two control wells and 89 test samples comprised of cDNA isolated from surgical and postmortem human tissues obtained from the Backus Hospital and Clinomics (Frederick, Md.). Total RNA was extracted from tissue samples from the Backus Hospital in the Facility at CuraGen. Total RNA from other tissues was obtained from Clinomics.

[1046] Joint tissues including synovial fluid, synovium, bone and cartilage were obtained from patients undergoing total knee or hip replacement surgery at the Backus Hospital. Tissue samples were immediately snap frozen in liquid nitrogen to ensure that isolated RNA was of optimal quality and not degraded. Additional samples of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis joint tissues were obtained from Clinomics. Normal control tissues were supplied by Clinomics and were obtained during autopsy of trauma victims surgical specimens of psoriatic tissues and adjacent matched tissues were provided as total RNA by Clinomics. Two male and two female patients were selected between the ages of 25 and 47. None of the patients were taking prescription drugs at the time samples were isolated.

[1047] Surgical specimens of diseased colon from patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohns disease and adjacent matched tissues were obtained from Clinomics. Bowel tissue from three female and three male Crohn's patients between the ages of 41-69 were used. Two patients were not on prescription medication while the others were taking dexamethasone, phenobarbital, or tylenol. Ulcerative colitis tissue was from three male and four female patients. Four of the patients were taking lebvid and two were on phenobarbital.

[1048] Total RNA from post mortem lung tissue from trauma victims with no disease or with emphysema, asthma or COPD was purchased from Clinomics. Emphysema patients ranged in age from 40-70 and all were smokers, this age range was chosen to focus on patients with cigarette-linked emphysema and to avoid those patients with alpha-i anti-trypsin deficiencies. Asthma patients ranged in age from 36-75, and excluded smokers to prevent those patients that could also have COPD. COPD patients ranged in age from 35-80 and included both smokers and non-smokers. Most patients were taking corticosteroids, and bronchodilators.

[1049] In the labels employed to identify tissues in the AI_comprehensive panel_v1.0 panel, the following abbreviations are used:

[1063] Panels: 5D and 5I

[1064] The plates for Panel 5D and 5I include two control wells and a variety of cDNAs isolated from human tissues and cell lines with an emphasis on metabolic diseases. Metabolic tissues were obtained from patients enrolled in the Gestational Diabetes study. Cells were obtained during different stages in the differentiation of adipocytes from human mesenchymal stem cells. Human pancreatic islets were also obtained.

[1065] In the Gestational Diabetes study subjects are young (18-40 years), otherwise healthy women with and without gestational diabetes undergoing routine (elective) Caesarean section. After delivery of the infant, when the surgical incisions were being repaired/closed, the obstetrician removed a small sample (<1 cc) of the exposed metabolic tissues during the closure of each surgical level. The biopsy material was rinsed in sterile saline, blotted and fast frozen within 5 minutes from the time of removal. The tissue was then flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored, individually, in sterile screw-top tubes and kept on dry ice for shipment to or to be picked up by CuraGen. The metabolic tissues of interest include uterine wall (smooth muscle), visceral adipose, skeletal muscle (rectus) and subcutaneous adipose. Patient descriptions are as follows:

Patient 2   Diabetic Hispanic, overweight, not on insulin
Patient 7-9 Nondiabetic Caucasian and obese (BMI > 30)
Patient 10  Diabetic Hispanic, overweight, on insulin
Patient 11  Nondiabetic African American and overweight
Patient 12  Diabetic Hispanic on insulin

[1066] Adipocyte differentiation was induced in donor progenitor cells obtained from Osirus (a division of Clonetics/BioWhittaker) in triplicate, except for Donor 3U which had only two replicates. Scientists at Clonetics isolated, grew and differentiated human mesenchymal stem cells (HuMSCs) for CuraGen based on the published protocol found in Mark F. Pittenger, et al., Multilineage Potential of Adult Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Science Apr. 2, 1999: 143-147. Clonetics provided Trizol lysates or frozen pellets suitable for mRNA isolation and ds cDNA production. A general description of each donor is as follows:

[1067] Donor 2 and 3 U: Mesenchymal Stem cells, Undifferentiated Adipose

[1068] Donor 2 and 3 AM: Adipose, AdiposeMidway Differentiated

[1069] Donor 2 and 3 AD: Adipose, Adipose Differentiated

[1070] Human cell lines were generally obtained from ATCC (American Type Culture Collection), NCI or the German tumor cell bank and fall into the following tissue groups: kidney proximal convoluted tubule, uterine smooth muscle cells, small intestine, liver HepG2 cancer cells, heart primary stromal cells, and adrenal cortical adenoma cells. These cells are all cultured under standard recommended conditions and RNA extracted using the standard procedures. All samples were processed at CuraGen to produce single stranded cDNA.

[1071] Panel 5I contains all samples previously described with the addition of pancreatic islets from a 58 year old female patient obtained from the Diabetes Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine. Islet tissue was processed to total RNA at an outside source and delivered to CuraGen for addition to panel 5I.

[1072] In the labels employed to identify tissues in the 5D and 5I panels, the following abbreviations are used:

[1073] GO Adipose=Greater Omentum Adipose

[1074] SK=Skeletal Muscle

[1075] UT=Uterus

[1076] PL=Placenta

[1077] AD=Adipose Differentiated

[1078] AM=Adipose Midway Differentiated

[1079] U=Undifferentiated Stem Cells

[1080] Panel CNSD.01

[1081] The plates for Panel CNSD.01 include two control wells and 94 test samples comprised of cDNA isolated from postmortem human brain tissue obtained from the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center. Brains are removed from calvaria of donors between 4 and 24 hours after death, sectioned by neuroanatomists, and frozen at −80° C. in liquid nitrogen vapor. All brains are sectioned and examined by neuropathologists to confirm diagnoses with clear associated neuropathology.

[1082] Disease diagnoses are taken from patient records. The panel contains two brains from each of the following diagnoses: Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Progressive Supernuclear Palsy, Depression, and “Normal controls”. Within each of these brains, the following regions are represented: cingulate gyrus, temporal pole, globus palladus, substantia nigra, Brodman Area 4 (primary motor strip), Brodman Area 7 (parietal cortex), Brodman Area 9 (prefrontal cortex), and Brodman area 17 (occipital cortex). Not all brain regions are represented in all cases; e.g., Huntington's disease is characterized in part by neurodegeneration in the globus palladus, thus this region is impossible to obtain from confirmed Huntington's cases. Likewise Parkinson's disease is characterized by degeneration of the substantia nigra making this region more difficult to obtain. Normal control brains were examined for neuropathology and found to be free of any pathology consistent with neurodegeneration.

[1083] In the labels employed to identify tissues in the CNS panel, the following abbreviations are used:

[1084] PSP=Progressive supranuclear palsy

[1085] Sub Nigra=Substantia nigra

[1086] Glob Palladus=Globus palladus

[1087] Temp Pole=Temporal pole

[1088] Cing Gyr=Cingulate gyrus

[1089] BA4=Brodman Area 4

[1090] Panel CNS_Neurodegeneration_V1.0

[1091] The plates for Panel CNS_Neurodegeneration_V1.0 include two control wells and 47 test samples comprised of cDNA isolated from postmortem human brain tissue obtained from the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center (McLean Hospital) and the Human Brain and Spinal Fluid Resource Center (VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System). Brains are removed from calvaria of donors between 4 and 24 hours after death, sectioned by neuroanatomists, and frozen at −80° C. in liquid nitrogen vapor. All brains are sectioned and examined by neuropathologists to confirm diagnoses with clear associated neuropathology.

[1092] Disease diagnoses are taken from patient records. The panel contains six brains from Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, and eight brains from “Normal controls” who showed no evidence of dementia prior to death. The eight normal control brains are divided into two categories: Controls with no dementia and no Alzheimer's like pathology (Controls) and controls with no dementia but evidence of severe Alzheimer's like pathology, (specifically senile plaque load rated as level 3 on a scale of 0-3; 0=no evidence of plaques, 3=severe AD senile plaque load). Within each of these brains, the following regions are represented: hippocampus, temporal cortex (Brodman Area 21), parietal cortex (Brodman area 7), and occipital cortex (Brodman area 17). These regions were chosen to encompass all levels of neurodegeneration in AD. The hippocampus is a region of early and severe neuronal loss in AD; the temporal cortex is known to show neurodegeneration in AD after the hippocampus; the parietal cortex shows moderate neuronal death in the late stages of the disease; the occipital cortex is spared in AD and therefore acts as a “control” region within AD patients. Not all brain regions are represented in all cases.

[1093] In the labels employed to identify tissues in the CNS_Neurodeeneration_V1.0 panel, the following abbreviations are used:

[1094] AD=Alzheimer's disease brain; patient was demented and showed AD-like pathology upon autopsy

[1095] Control=Control brains; patient not demented, showing no neuropathology

[1096] Control (Path)=Control brains; pateint not demented but showing sever AD-like pathology

[1097] SupTemporal Ctx=Superior Temporal Cortex

[1098] Inf Temporal Ctx=Inferior Temporal Cortex

[1099] A. CG58522-01: Human Platelet-Activating Factor Acetylhydrolase Ib Beta

[1129] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3363—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1130] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3363—Significant expression is seen in lung cancer cell line NCI-H1146 (CT=34.5) and lung cancer cell line SHP-77 (CT=34.2). Therefore, expression of this can be used to distinguish these samples from the rest of the samples on this panel.

[1131] Panel 1.2 Summary: Ag1130/Ag1198—Three different runs using the same primer sequences yield similar results. Significant expression of this gene is seen in testis and a colon cancer sample. Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to differentiate these samples from other samples on these panels. Results from a third experiment using the probe and primer set Ag1253 show low/undetectable levels of expression in all the samples on this panel.

[1132] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag1253—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1133] Panel 2D Summary: Ag1603—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown)

[1134] Panel 4D Summary: Ag1130/Ag1198/Ag1253/Ag3363—Two experiments showed possible experimental difficulties, while the other three runs showed expression of this gene as low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on the panel.

[1135] Panel 4R Summary: Ag1198—Significant expression of this gene is seen only in the IBD colitis 1 sample (CT=34.2). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to differentiate this sample from others on the panel.

[1136] Panel CNS 1 Summary: Ag1253/Ag1603—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1142] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3362 Highest expression of the CG58516-01 gene is seen in the occipital cortex of a control patient and the temporal cortex of an Alzheimer's patient. While the CG58516-01 gene does not appear to be preferentially expressed in Alzheimer's disease, this panel confirms expression of the CG58516-01 gene at moderate/high levels in the brain in an additional set of individuals. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of potential utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1143] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3362 The CG58516-01 gene is widely expressed in this panel, with highest expression in the breast cancer cell line T47D (CT=29). Significant expression is also seen in cell lines derived from prostate, breast and ovarian cancers. In general, expression of the CG58516-0l gene appears to be greater in the cancer cell lines than in normal tissue. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish these cell line types from others in the panel.

[1144] Among tissues involved in central nervous system function, this gene is expressed at low but significant levels in all brain regions examined. This gene encodes a protein with a putativie zinc-finger motif. Since these proteins are known to interact with nucleic acids, this suggests that this gene product may play a potential role in transcription. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the CG58516-01 gene product may be used to regulate the transcription of disease-related proteins such as ataxin, huntingtin, or various apoptosis cascade proteins.

[1145] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, skeletal muscle, heart, and fetal liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1153] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3357—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1154] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3357 This gene is primarily expressed in cancer cell lines, with highest expression in a breast cancer cell line BT 549(CT=32.8). This gene is expressed in the following cell lines but not the corresponding healthy tissue: gastric, brain, colon, lung, breast, ovarian cancer and melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1155] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3357 Highest expression of the CG58473-01 gene is seen in pokeweed mitogen-activated purified peripheral blood B lymphocytes (CT=33.2). In addition, no expression of the transcript is seen in PBMC that contain normal B cells, but the transcript is induced when PBMC are treated with the B cell selective pokeweed mitogen. The transcript is not seen in the B cell lymphoma cell line Ramos regardless of stimulation. Thus, the putative protein encoded by this gene could potentially be used diagnostically to identify activated B cells. Therefore, therapeutics that antagonize the function of this gene product may be useful as therapeutic drugs to reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B cells play a part in the intiation or progression of the disease process, such as lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1172] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3351—This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. While no differential expression of this gene is detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls, the widespread expression of this gene in the brain suggests that therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of neurologic disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, stroke and multiple sclerosis.

[1173] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3351—Results from one experiment are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[1174] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3351 The CG57871-01 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1181] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3380 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG58590-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1182] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3380—This gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in all samples on this pattern. The highest level of expression is seen in breast cancer cell line T47D (CT=27.8). Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be involved in brain, colon, renal, lung, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1183] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, heart, and fetal liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes;. Furthermore, this gene is more highly expressed in fetal (CT=30.9) liver when compared to expression in the adult (CT>35) and may be useful for the differentiation of the fetal and adult sources of this tissue.

[1184] In addition, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in the all regions of the CNS examined. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1185] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3380—This gene is expressed from moderate to low levels across all of the samples on this panel. The highest expression is seen in small airway epithelium treated with TNFalpha and IL-1beta (CT=28.7). Interestingly, expression is much lower in untreated small airway epithelium (CT=31.5). There is also a significant difference between mononuclear cells treated with PWM (CT=29.5) and untreated cells (CT=32.7). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to differentiate treated and untreated samples.

[1186] Expression of this gene is detected at a moderate level (CT=30.2) in normal colon (similar levels for colon are seen on panel 1.4 (CT=30.9), but is significantly lower in the IBD Colitis 2 (CT=34.4) and IBD Crohn's (CT=33.5) samples. Therefore, therapies designed with the protein encoded for by this gene may potentially modulate colon function and play a role in the identification and treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases, which effect the colon including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

[1193] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3375 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG58572-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1194] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3375—This gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in all samples on this panel, with the highest expression in gastric cancer cell line NCI-N87 (CT=28.8). Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be involved in gastric, pancreatic, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1195] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1196] In addition, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in the CNS. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1197] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3375 The CG58572-01 gene is ubiquitously expressed on this panel, with highest expression in the B cell line Ramos treated with ionomycin (CT=26.2). Significant levels of expression are also seen in pokeweed mitogen-activated B lymphocytes. Therefore, therapies that antagonize the function of this gene product may be useful as therapeutic drugs to reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B cells play a part in the initiation or progression of the disease process, such as lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1198] Interestingly, there is a difference between the levels of expression in resting and activated secondary T cells. The level in activated secondary T cells (CT=28.7-29.2) appears to be higher than in resting T cells (CT=31.3-33.1). Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded by this transcript could be important in the regulation of T cell function.

[1207] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3023/Ag3373 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG58564-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1208] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3373 Highest expression of the CG58564-01 gene is seen in a prostate cancer cell line (CT=27). Overall, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in the cancer cell lines in this panel. A higher level of expression is observed in clusters of cell lines derived from prostate, brain, melanoma, colon, lung, breast and ovarian cancer when compared to expression in normal prostate, brain, colon, lung, breast and ovary. Thus, this gene could potentially be used as a diagnostic marker of cancer in these tissues. Furthermore, inhibition of the activity of this gene product using small molecule drugs may be effective in the treatment of cancer in these tissues.

[1209] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene product has moderate levels of expression in adipose, heart, skeletal muscle, adrenal, pituitary, thyroid and pancreas. Thus, this gene product may be a small molecule target for the treatment of endocrine and metabolic diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1210] In addition, this gene appears to be differentially expressed in fetal (CT value=29) vs adult liver (CT value=33) and may be useful for differentiation between the two sources of this tissue.

[1211] This gene is also expressed at moderate levels in all central nervous system samples present on this panel. Please see Panel 10.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1212] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3023 The CG58564-01 gene is ubiquitously expressed among the samples on this panel, with highest expression in an ovarian cancer cell line (CT=28.8). Overall, the expression of this gene shows good agreement with panel 1.4. A higher level of expression is observed in prostate, brain, melanoma, colon, lung, pancreatic, breast and ovarian cancer cell lines than the normal prostate, brain, colon, lung, pancreas, breast and ovary. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker of cancer in these tissues. Furthermore, inhibition of the activity of this gene product using small molecule drugs may be effective in the treatment of cancer in these tissues.

[1213] Among tissues with metabolic function, expression of this gene is widespread, as in the previous panel. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in metabolic disease.

[1214] This gene represents a phosphatase that is also expressed at low to moderate levels across the CNS. Some phosphatases comprise a family of MAP kinase regulating enzymes, members of which are upregulated in brains subjected to insults such as ischemia and seizure activity. MAP kinases are kown to regulate neurotrophic and neurotoxic pathways. Consequently, agents that modulate the activity of this gene may have utility in attenuating the apoptotic and neurodegenerative processes following brain insults.

[1217] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3023/Ag3373 The CG585864-01 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types and tissues of significance in the immune response in health and disease. Highest expression of this gene is seen in ionomycin treated Ramos B cells (CT=26.83). Therefore, targeting of this gene product with a small molecule drug or antibody therapeutic may modulate the functions of cells of the immune system as well as resident tissue cells and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, and arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

[1228] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3023/Ag3373 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG56804-03 gene, a splice variant of CG56804-01, in Alzheimrer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system. Ag5847—This primer pair recognizes only the splice variant CG58564-03. Expression of this variant is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1229] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3373 Highest expression of the CG56804-03 gene is seen in a prostate cancer cell line (CT=27). Overall, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in the cancer cell lines in this panel. A higher level of expression is observed in clusters of cell lines derived from prostate, brain, melanoma, colon, lung, breast and ovarian cancer when compared to expression in normal prostate, brain, colon, lung, breast and ovary. Thus, this gene could potentially be used as a diagnostic marker of cancer in these tissues. Furthermore, inhibition of the activity of this gene product using small molecule drugs may be effective in the treatment of cancer in these tissues.

[1230] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene product has moderate levels of expression in adipose, heart, skeletal muscle, adrenal, pituitary, thyroid and pancreas. Thus, this gene product may be a small molecule target for the treatment of endocrine and metabolic diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1231] In addition, this gene appears to be differentially expressed in fetal (CT value=29) vs adult liver (CT value=33) and may be useful for differentiation between the two sources of this tissue.

[1232] This gene is also expressed at moderate levels in all central nervous system samples present on this panel. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1233] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag5847—This primer pair, specific to this splice variant, CG58564-03. Expression of this variant is highest in salivary gland (CT=28.6). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to differentiate this sample from others on the panel.

[1234] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3023 The CG56804-03 gene is ubiquitously expressed among the samples on this panel, with highest expression in an ovarian cancer cell line (CT=28.8). Overall, the expression of this gene shows good agreement with panel 1.4. A higher level of expression is observed in prostate, brain, melanoma, colon, lung, pancreatic, breast and ovarian cancer cell lines than the normal prostate, brain, colon, lung, pancreas, breast and ovary. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker of cancer in these tissues. Furthermore, inhibition of the activity of this gene product using small molecule drugs may be effective in the treatment of cancer in these tissues.

[1235] Among tissues with metabolic function, expression of this gene is widespread, as in the previous panel. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in metabolic disease.

[1236] This gene represents a dual specificity phosphatase that is also expressed at low to moderate levels across the CNS. Dual-specificity phosphatases comprise a family of MAP kinase regulating enzymes, members of which are upregulated in brains subjected to insults such as ischemia and seizure activity. MAP kinases are kown to regulate neurotrophic and neurotoxic pathways. Consequently, agents that modulate the activity of this gene may have utility in attenuating the apoptotic and neurodegenerative processes following brain insults.

[1237] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag5847—This primer pair recognizes a splice variant of CG58564-03. Expression of this variant is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1238] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3023/Ag3373 The CG56804-03 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types and tissues of significance in the immune response in health and disease. Highest expression of this gene is seen in ionomycin treated Ramos 13 cells (CT=26.83). Therefore, targeting of this gene product with a small molecule drug or antibody therapeutic may modulate the functions of cells of the immune system as well as resident tissue cells and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, and arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

[1248] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3023/Ag3373 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG56804-04 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system. Ag5847—This primer pair recognizes a splice variant of CG58564-01 designated CG58564-04. Expression of this variant is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1249] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3373 Highest expression of the CG56804-04 gene is seen in a prostate cancer cell line (CT=27). Overall, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in the cancer cell lines in this panel. A higher level of expression is observed in clusters of cell lines derived from prostate, brain, melanoma, colon, lung, breast and ovarian cancer when compared to expression in normal prostate, brain, colon, lung, breast and ovary. Thus, this gene could potentially be used as a diagnostic marker of cancer in these tissues. Furthermore, inhibition of the activity of this gene product using small molecule drugs may be effective in the treatment of cancer in these tissues.

[1250] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene product has moderate levels of expression in adipose, heart, skeletal muscle, adrenal, pituitary, thyroid and pancreas. Thus, this gene product may be a small molecule target for the treatment of endocrine and metabolic diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1251] In addition, this gene appears to be differentially expressed in fetal (CT value=29) vs adult liver (CT value=33) and may be useful for differentiation between the two sources of this tissue.

[1252] This gene is also expressed at moderate levels in all central nervous system samples present on this panel. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1253] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag5844—This primer pair recognizes a splice variant of CG58564-01. Expression of this variant is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1254] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3023 The CG56804-04 gene is ubiquitously expressed among the samples on this panel, with highest expression in an ovarian cancer cell line (CT=28.8). Overall, the expression of this gene shows good agreement with panel 1.4. A higher level of expression is observed in prostate, brain, melanoma, colon, lung, pancreatic, breast and ovarian cancer cell lines than the normal prostate, brain, colon, lung, pancreas, breast and ovary. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker of cancer in these tissues. Furthermore, inhibition of the activity of this gene product using small molecule drugs may be effective in the treatment of cancer in these tissues.

[1255] Among tissues with metabolic function, expression of this gene is widespread, as in the previous panel. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in metabolic disease.

[1256] This gene represents a dual specificity phosphatase that is also expressed at low to moderate levels across the CNS. Dual-specificity phosphatases comprise a family of MAP kinase regulating enzymes, members of which are upregulated in brains subjected to insults such as ischemia and seizure activity. MAP kinases are known to regulate neurotrophic and neurotoxic pathways. Consequently, agents that modulate the activity of this gene may have utility in attenuating the apoptotic and neurodegenerative processes following brain insults.

[1257] Panel 41.1D Summary: Ag5844—This primer pair recognizes a splice variant of CG58564-01. Expression of this variant is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1258] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3023/Ag3373 The CG56804-04 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types and tissues of significance in the immune response in health and disease. Highest expression of this gene is seen in ionomycin treated Ramos cells (CT=26.83). Therefore, targeting of ghis gene product with a small molecule drug or antibody therapeutic may modulate the functions of cells of the immune system as well as resident tissue cells and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, and arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

[1264] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3338—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1265] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3338—Expression of this gene is highest in testis (CT=29.4). Therefore, expression of this gene could be used to distinguish this sample from others on the panel.

[1266] There is also low expression in pancreatic cancer cell line CAPAN2, lung cancer cell line HOP-62, breast cancer cell line T47D, and ovarian cancer cell line OVCAR-5. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate these samples from other samples on this panel.

[1267] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3338—Significant expression of this gene is seen only in resting monocytes (CT=32.3) Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to differentiate between this sample and others on this panel.

[1274] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: This panel confirms the expression of this gene in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1275] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3333 This gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in many of the samples on this panel, with the highest expression in colon cancer cell line SW480 (CT=27.8). Expression is significantly lower in SW680, a cell line derived from a metastasis of the primary tumor represented by SW480. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these two cell lines and potentially between primary colon cancer and its metastases.

[1276] Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be involved in gastric, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1277] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes

[1278] This gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1279] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3333 The CG57789-01 gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in several samples on this panel, with the highest expression in resting astrocytes (CT=28.4). Moderate expression of this gene is seen in treated and untreated dermal and lung fibroblasts and the airway epithelial tumor line NCI-H292 cells. Thus, the transcript or the protein it encodes may be involved in pathological and inflammatory skin and lung conditions, including psoriasis, asthma, allergy, emphysema, and COPD.

[1288] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3326/Ag3692—Three experiments done with two primer pairs (same sequence) are in excellent agreement. This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1289] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3326/Ag3692 Two experiments with the smae probe and primer set produce results that are in excellent agreement. This gene is highly expressed in fetal liver (CT=26.5-27.0) and moderately expressed in adult liver (CT=28.5-28.8) and liver cancer cell line HepG2 (CT=28.4-28.8). This result agrees with the results seen in Panel 5 (expression in HepG2 (CT=29.2). These results are in agreement with published data that show a novel sodium dicarboxylate transporter in brain, choroid plexus kidney, intestine and liver. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker for liver derived tissue.

[1290] This gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, and cerebral cortex. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1291] Low but significant levels of expression are also seen in the adrenal gland. Thus, this gene product may also be involved in metabolic disorders of this gland, including adrenoleukodystrophy and congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

[1294] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3692 Significant expression of this gene is seen only in kidney and a liver cirrhosis sample (CTs=34.0). These results confirm that this gene is expressed in liver derived samples. The presence in the kidney is also in agreement with published results. Please see Panel 1.4. This gene product may be involved in maintaining or restoring normal function to the kidney during inflammation.

[1295] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3326 Results from one experiment are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[1296] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3326—The highest expression of this gene is in liver cancer cell line HepG2 (CT=29.2). There is also moderate expression in the small intestine (CT=30.5). These results compare well with previously published reports of sodium dicarboxylate transporter expression in mouse and rat (see discussion Panel 1.4).

[1307] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3326/Ag3692—Three experiments done with two primer pairs (same sequence) are in excellent agreement. This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders. Ag5818 Results from one experiment are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[1308] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3326/Ag3692 Two experiments with the same probe and primer set produce results that are in excellent agreement. This gene is highly expressed in fetal liver (CT=26.5-27.0) and moderately expressed in adult liver (CT=28.5-28.8) and liver cancer cell line HepG2 (CT=28.4-28.8). This result agrees with In the results seen in Panel 5 (expression in HepG2 (CT=29.2). These results are in agreement with published data that show a novel sodium dicarboxylate transporter in brain, choroid plexus kidney, intestine and liver. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker for liver derived tissue.

[1309] This gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, and cerebral cortex. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1310] Low but significant levels of expression are also seen in the adrenal gland. Thus, this gene product may also be involved in metabolic disorders of this gland, including adrenoleukodystrophy and congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3692 Significant expression of this gene is seen only in kidney and a liver cirrhosis sample (CTs=34.0). These results confirm that this gene is expressed in liver derived samples. The presence in the kidney is also in agreement with published results. Please see Panel 1.4. This gene product may be involved in maintaining or restoring normal function to the kidney during inflammation.

[1314] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3326 Results from one experiment are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[1315] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3326 The highest expression of this gene is in liver cancer cell line HepG2 (CT=29.2). There is also moderate expression in the small intestine (CT=30.5). These results compare well with previously published reports of sodium dicarboxylate transporter expression in mouse and rat (see discussion Panel 1.4).

[1322] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3317—This panel does not show differential expression of this gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1323] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3317—There is low to moderate expression this gene across all samples on this panel. This gene is expressed at moderate levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, and cerebral cortex. Highest expression is observed in the cerebral cortex (CT=29.0). This gene encodes a calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV homolog, which is known to play a role in. Ca2+ signaling in the CNS that controls neuronal growth, differentiation, and plasticity. Mice deficient in calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV were found to have cerebellar defects. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1324] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1325] Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be also be involved in gastric, pancreatic, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1337] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3323 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG57709-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1338] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3323—This gene is expressed at moderate levels in all samples on this panel, with highest expression in a brain cancer cell line. Expression is also seen in all the cancer cell lines on this panel. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this brain cancer cell line sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker for brain cancer.

[1339] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1340] This molecule is also expressed at moderate to low levels in the CNS and may be a small molecule target for the treatment of neurologic diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, schizophrenia, stroke and multiple sclerosis.

[1341] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3323—This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in all samples on this panel, with highest expression in B lymphocytes stimulated with polkweed mitoger (CT=24.5). In addition, this gene is expressed at higher levels in ionomycin-activated Ramos B lymphocytes. The high levels of expression in activated B lymphocytes suggests that therapies that antagonize the function of this gene product may reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B cells play a part in the initiation or progression of the disease process, such as lupus erythemratosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1349] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3311—Significant expression of this gene is seen only in colon (CT=33.9). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish between this sample and the others on the panel and between healthy and inflammed bowel. Since expression is not detectable in samples derived from Crohn's and colitis patients, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

[1355] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3372 Highest expression of the CG58553-01 gene is seen in the small intestine sample (CT=26.8). This gene encodes a novel vasopressin gene that plays a role in regulating electrolyte transport in the colon. Therefore, regulation of the transcript or the protein it encodes could be important in maintaining normal cellular homeostasis and in the treatment of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

[1356] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed in liver and adipose. Thus, this gene product may be involved in disorders that affect these tissues, such as obesity and type II diabetes.

[1357] Low, but significant expression is also seen in the hippocampus. The hippocampus is critical for learning and memory. Thus, this gene product may have utility treating CNS disorders involving memory deficits, including Alzheimer's disease and aging.

[1359] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3372 In agreement with the results seen in panel 1.4, the highest level of expression of this gene is in the colon sample (CT=27.5). Interestingly, the expression is significantly lower in the IBD colitis 2 (CTh35) and IBD Crohn's (CT=30.9) samples. Therefore, alterations in the expression of this gene may be used in the treatment of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

[1360] In addition, the expression of the CG58553-01 gene in several preparations of T lymphocytes suggests that small molecule antagonists, therapeutic antibodies specific for this molecule, or the extracellular domain of this protein, may be useful to reduce or eliminate the symptoms of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, or psoriasis.

[1367] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3386 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at moderate to low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1368] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3386 This gene is moderately expressed in most of the samples on this panel. Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be involved in gastric, pancreatic, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1369] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1370] In addition, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in the CNS. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1371] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3386 The CG58626-01 transcript is expressed ubiquitously in this panel. Highest expression of this transcript is seen in activated Ramos cells and activated B cells (CTs=27). The expression of this transcript in activated lymphoid cells when compared to non activated cells suggests that the CG58626-01 gene may be important for the diagnosis or pathogenesis of immune mediated diseases. Therefore, modulation of the expression and/or activity of this gene product might important for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, allergy, and delayed type hypersensitivity.

[1384] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3337—This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low to moderate levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders

[1385] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3337—This gene is expressed in almost all samples on this panel. This gene is expressed at moderate levels in the CNS. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1386] In addition, this gene is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1387] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3337 This gene is most highly expressed in resting astrocytes (CT=28.9). In addition, this gene is highly expressed in a cluster of treated and untreated samples derived from lung and dermal fibroblasts. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of pathological and inflammatory lung and skin diseases, such as psoriasis, asthma, emphysema, and allergies.

[1394] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3282—This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1395] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3282 Highest expression of this gene is seen in a brain cancer cell line (CT=24.3). This gene appears to be expressed more highly in the cancer cell lines than in the normal tissue samples on this panel and may be involved in cellular growth and proliferation. Based on this expression profile, this gene may be involved in gastric, pancreatic, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1396] This gene is also expressed at high levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1397] In addition, this gene product is expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1398] Furthermore, this gene is more highly expressed in fetal skeletal muscle (CT=30.4) and liver (CT=27) when compared to expression in the adult skeletal muscle (CT>35) and liver (CT=30) may be useful for the differentiation of the fetal and adult sources of this tissue.

[1399] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3282 This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. Highest expression is seen in polkweed mitogen stimulated B lymphocytes (CT=25.7). In addition, expression is seen in members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in Panel 1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1407] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: A3229—This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1408] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3229—Highest levels of expression of this gene are seen in breast cancer cell line T47D (CT=28.5). Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be involved in gastric, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1409] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, adrenal, thyroid, pituitary, skeletal muscle, and heart. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests, that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1410] In addition, this gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1411] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag3229 Highest expression of the CG57411-01 gene is seen in the kidney (CT=32.2). In addition, significant levels of expression are seen in samples derived from normal lung and breast. Expression in these normal tissues is also higher than in the corresponding malignant tissue. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of lung, breast and kidney cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of lung, breast and kidney cancer.

[1412] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3229 Highest expression of the CG57411-01 gene is seen in IL-4 treated lung fibroblasts (CT=31.3). Significant levels of expression are seen in activated-NCI-H292 mucoepidermoid cells as well as untreated NCI-H292 cells. Moderate expression is also detected in IL-9, IL-13 and IFN gamma activated lung fibroblasts, human pulmonary aortic endothelial cells (treated and untreated), small airway epithelium (treated and untreated), treated bronchial epithelium and lung microvascular endothelial cells (treated and untreated). The expression of this gene in cells derived from or within the lung suggests that this gene may be involved in normal conditions as well as pathological and inflammatory lung disorders that include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, allergy and emphysema. Moderate/low expression of this gene is also detected in treated and untreated HUVECs (endothelial cells) and coronary artery smooth muscle cells (treated and untreated) and normal tissues that include lung, colon, thymus and kidney. Expression in the various immune cell types and tissue samples suggests that therapeutic modulation of this gene product may ameliorate symptoms associated with infectious conditions as well as inflammatory and autoimmune disorders that include psoriasis, allergy, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.

[1418] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3952 Highest expression of this gene is seen in the adrenal gland (CT=29). Thus, this gene product may be a treatment for Addison's disease and other adrenalopathies. This gene also has low levels of expression in adipose, heart, skeletal muscle, pituitary, thyroid, and pancreas. Therapeutic modulation of this gene product may be important for the diagnosis or treatment of endocrine or metabolic disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes, obesity and pancreatitis.

[1419] Expression of this gene is also seen in sample derived from colon, gastric, lung and breast cancers. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of colon, gastric, lung and breast cancers.

[1420] Low but significant levels of expression are also seen for all regions of the CNS examined. Thus, this gene product may be useful for treatment of CNS disorders such as Alzheimner's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, epilepsy, schizophrenia and multiple sclerosis.

[1421] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3952 Highest expression of the CG57399-01 gene is seen in a lung cancer cell line (CT=32.5). Low but significant expression is also seen in cell lines derived from breast and colon cancers. Overall, expression is consistent with expression seen in Panel 1.4. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of colon, gastric, lung and breast cancers.

[1422] Among metabolic tissues, significant levels of expression are seen in adipose and the adrenal gland. Thus, this gene product may be useful for treatment of obesity, Addisonl's disease and other adrenalopathies.

[1423] In addition, this gene is expressed in the hippocampus, and cerebral cortex. Both these regions of the brain undergo degeneration in Alzheimer's disease. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of this disease or any other neurodegenerative disorders.

[1424] AC. CG57399-02: Phospholipase Adrab-B Precursor

[1425] Expression of gene CG57399-02 was assessed using the primer-probe set Ag3952, described in Table ACA. Results of the RTQ-PCR runs are shown in Table ACB. Please note that this gene represents a variant of CG57399-01. This sequence however, only corresponds to probe and primer set Ag3952.

[1427] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3952 Highest expression of this gene is seen in the adrenal gland (CT=29). Thus, this gene product may be a treatment for Addison's disease and other adrenalopathies. This gene also has low levels of expression in adipose., heart, skeletal muscle, pituitary, thyroid, and pancreas. Therapeutic modulation of this gene product may be important for the diagnosis or treatment of endocrine or metabolic disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes, obesity and pancreatitis.

[1428] Expression of this gene is also seen in cell line samples derived from colon, gastric, lung and breast cancers. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of colon, gastric, lung and breast cancers.

[1429] Low but significant levels of expression are also seen for all regions of the CNS examined. Thus, this gene product may be useful for treatment of CNS disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, epilepsy, schizophrenia and multiple sclerosis.

[1435] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3541—Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>34.5) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1436] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3541 Significant expression of this gene is seen only in cerebellum, fetal brain, the breast cancer cell line T47D, and ovarian cancer cell line OVCAR-5 (CTs=32-35). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to differentiate between these samples and others on this panel.

[1437] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3541—There is significant expression of this gene only in thymus (CT=33.8). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to identify thymic tissue. Furthermore, drugs that inhibit the function of this protein may regulate T cell development in the thymus and reduce or eliminate the symptoms of T cell mediated autoimmune or inflammatory diseases, including asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, or rheumatoid arthritis. Additionally, therapeutics designed against this putative protein may disrupt T cell development in the thymus and function as an immunosuppresant for tissue transplant.

[1445] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3540—This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment.

[1446] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3540 This gene is most highly expressed in a breast cancer cell line (CT=27.1). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of breast cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of breast cancer.

[1447] Among metabolic tissues, this gene, an acyl coA thioesterase homolog, has a low level of expression in adipose, adult and fetal liver, adrenal, thyroid and pancreas. Acyl CoA thioesterases have multiple roles in lipid homeostasis. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene product may be a treatment for endocrine and metabolic disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes and obesity.

[1448] In addition, this gene is expressed in all CNS regions examined. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of neurologic disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, stroke, schizophrenia and multiple sclerosis.

[1451] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3540 Highest expression of the CG59309-01 gene is seen in the thymus and colon (CTs=31.5). Significant levels of expression are also seen in a cluter of treated and untreated samples derived from the NCI-H292 mucoepidermoid cell line. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker for thymus and colon. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may regulate T cell development in the thymus and reduce or eliminate the symptoms of T cell mediated autoimmune or inflammatory diseases, including asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, or rheumatoid arthritis. Additionally, small molecule or antibody therapeutics designed against this putative protein may disrupt T cell development in the thymus and function as an immunosuppresant for tissue transplant.

[1452] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3540 This gene has moderate expression in skeletal muscle, (highest expression CT=30.5). Acyl CoA thioesterases function in peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this homolog may increase fatty acid oxidation in muscle and be a treatment for Type 2 diabetes and obesity.

[1463] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3218/Ag3378—Two different experiments using probe/primer sets with the same sequence are in very good agreement. This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels to moderate levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected, between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.3D for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1464] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3218/Ag3378—Two different experiments using probe/primer sets with the same sequence are in good agreement. Highest expression is seen in testis and a lung cancer cell line (CTs=30-31). This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1465] This gene product is also expressed in adipose, pancreas, thyroid, pituitary, heart, and liver. This widespread expression in tissues with metabolic function suggests that this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine diseases, including obesity and Types 1 and 2 diabetes.

[1466] Based on expression in this panel, this gene may be involved in gastric, pancreatic, brain, colon, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as melanomas. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a diagnostic marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic inhibition using antibodies or small molecule drugs might be of use in the treatment of these cancers.

[1467] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag3218—This gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in many samples on this panel, with the highest levels of expression in breast cancer sample OD04590-01 (CT=30.3). This gene is expressed in a cluster of breast cancer samples with no expression in normal breast (CTh35). Similarly, this gene is expressed in ovarian cancer samples at higher levels than the matched margin samples.

[1468] Interestingly, this gene is expressed at higher levels in kidney cancer margin samples than in the matched cancer samples.

[1469] This gene is homologous to a mouse myosin phosphatase targeting subunit (MYPT) which have been found to play a role in cell division. MYPT undergoes mitosis-specific phosphorylation which is reversed during cytokinesis.

[1471] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3218/Ag3378—Two different experiments using probe/primer sets with the same sequence are in very good agreement. Highest expression is seen in the colon and a mucoepidermoid cell line (CTs=30-32). This gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1478] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3407 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1479] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3407 Highest expression of the CG59241-01 gene is seen in fetal brain (CT=31.3). Furthermore, low to moderate levels of expression is also observed in CNS cancer cell lines (CTs=32-34). The CG59241-01 gene codes for a putative amiloride-sensitive sodium channel. A similar amiloride-sensitive sodium channel was shown to be highly expressed in malignant glioblastoma multiforme tumors and to be a charachteristic feature of malignant brain tumor cells (Ref. 1). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the protein encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of CNS cancer. Significant expression is also seen in a cluster of cell lines derived from brain, colon, breast, and ovarian cancers. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, through the use of small molecule drugs, protein therapeutics or antibodies, might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1480] In addition, this gene is expressed at low levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1482] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3407 Highest expression Of the CG59241-01 gene is detected in PWM treated B lymphocytes (CT=32). Similar expression is also detected in primary activated Th1, Th2 and Tr1 cells, as well as TNF alpha treated dermal fibroblast CCD1070 cells (CTs=32). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish these samples from other samples in the panel. Furthermore, this gene is expressed in activated lymphocytes. Likewise, no expression of this gene is seen in PBMC that contain normal B cells (CTr=40), but it is induced when PBMC are treated with the pokeweed mitogen or PHA-L (CTs=34). In addition, the transcript is not seen in the B cell lymphoma Ramos regardless of stimulation. Therefore, the gene product could potentially be used therapeutically in the treatment of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis and in other diseases in which T cells and B cells are activated.

[1483] In addition, low expression of this gene is also observed in normal colon, lung, thymus and kidney tissues. The CG59241-01 gene encodes an amiloride-sensitive sodium channel, A similar channel, the amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) constitutes the limiting step for sodium reabsorption in epithelial cells that line the distal nephron, distal colon, ducts of several exocrine glands and lung airways and plays an important role in pathophysiological and clinical conditions such as hypertension or lung edema. ENaC has been implicated in two genetic diseases, Liddle's syndrome and pseudoeiypoaldosteronism (PHA-1) (Ref. 1). Therefore, antibody or small molecule therapies designed with the protein encoded for by CG59241-01 gene could modulate kidney/colon/lung function and be important in the treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases of these tissues in addition to hypertension, lung edema, Liddle's syndrom and PHA-1.

[1491] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3385 This panel confirms the expression of CG58602-01 gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1492] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3385 Highest expression of the CG58602-01 gene is seen in a breast cancer cell line (CT=26.3). Significant expression is also seen in an ovarian cancer cell line. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of breast and ovarian cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of breast and ovarian cancers.

[1493] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1494] Expression of this gene is higher in fetal skeletal muscle (CT=28.3) when compared to expression in adult skeletal muscle (CT=31.5). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to distinguish fetal from adult skeletal muscle.

[1495] In addition, this gene is expressed at high levels (CTs=29-30.4) in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1496] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3385 Highest expression of the CG58602-01 gene is seen in the thymus (CT=28). Thus, the putative protein encoded for by this gene could therefore play an important role in T cell development. Therefore, small molecule therapeutics designed against the proetin encoded by this gene could be utilized to modulate immune function (T cell development) and be important for organ transplant, AIDS treatment or post chemotherapy immune reconstitiution.

[1510] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3355 This panel confirms the expression of CG58183-01 gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1511] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3355 Highest expression of CG58183-01 gene is detected in fetal brain (Ct=29.2). In addition, this gene is expressed at high levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord (CTs=29-32). Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1512] This gene codes for N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor 3A protein. In cats and rhodent models competitive NMDA receptor antagonists, such as D-(E)-4-(3-phosphonoprop-2-enyl)piperazine-2-carboxylic acid, which act at the neurotransmitter recognition site were shown to be effective in reducing ischaemic brain damage when administered prior to the onset of an ischaemic episode (Ref. 1). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the protein encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of ischaemic brain.

[1513] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low levels in pancreas, heart, and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1514] Furthermore, low to moderate expression of this gene is detected in lung cancer, and CNS3 cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, through the use of small molecule drugs, protein therapeutics or antibodies, might be beneficial in the treatment of lung cancer or CNS cancer.

Low, but significant levels of expression are also seen in the kidney, in TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta treated astrocytes and in the PMA/ionomycin treated basophil cell line KU-812. Thus, this gene product may be involved in the normal homeostasis of this tissue. Therefore, agonistic antibodies or protein therapeutics may be important in the treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases that affect the kidney, including lupus and glomerulonephritis. In addition, the expression of this transcript in astrocytes treated with TNF-a and IL-1 indicates that therapeutics designed against the protein encoded by this gene may be useful for the treatment of inflammatory CNS diseases such as multiple sclerosis.

[1522] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3542 Expression of the CG59315-01 gene is low/undetectable in all the samples on this panel. (CTs>35). (Data not shown.)

[1523] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3542 Expression of the CG59315-01 gene is highest in a breast cancer cell line (CT=31.3). Furthermore, there is significant expression in a cluster of cell lines derived from brain cancer, colon cancer and ovarian cancer. Therefore, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of colon, brain, ovarian, and breast cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of colon, brain, ovarian, and breast cancers.

[1524] Low but significant levels of expression are also seen in the cerebellum. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of neurologic disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1525] Among metabolic tissues, this gene is expressed at low levels in adipose. Therefore, this gene product may be useful in the treatment of obesity.

[1526] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3542 Expression of the CG59315-01 gene is highest in the normal colon (CT=30). Furthermore, expression is undetectable in colon samples from Crohn's and colitis patients. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between normal and inflammed colon. This gene encodes a connexin homolog, a gap junction protein involved in intercellular communication.

[1527] The expression of this connexin-like protein in several of the resting and activated T lymphocyte preparations and in resting monocytes suggests that small molecule antagonists or therapeutic antibodies that block its function may also be useful in the treatment of a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases in which T cells and monocytes play a pivotal role. These include, but are not limited to, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, or psoriasis.

[1534] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3392 Expression of the CG59203-01 gene is low/undetectable in all samples on this panel (CTs>35). (Data not shown.)

[1535] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3392 Highest expression of the CG59203-01 gene is seen in the testis. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker of testicular tissue. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in treating infertility or hypogonadism.

[1536] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3392 Significant expression of this gene is detected in a liver cirrhosis sample (CT=33.8). Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected in normal liver in Panel 1.3D, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, expression of this gene could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis.

[1543] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3387 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG58662-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.3D for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1544] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3387 Expression of the CG58662-01 gene is ubiquitous in this panel, with highest expression in a lung cancer cell line (CT=29.5). In addition, this gene is expressed at higher levels in kidney cancer cell lines when compared to normal kidney expression. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate these samples from other samples and as a marker for these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression of function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of lung and kidney cancer.

[1545] Among metabolic tissues this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, pituitary, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene plays a role in normal metabolic and neuroendocrine function and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine diseases or metabolic disorders, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1546] In addition, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in all CNS regions examinded and may be a small molecule target for the treatment of neurologic diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1547] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3387 The CG58662-01 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease, with highest expression in the thymus (CT=31). In addition, expression is seen in members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1555] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3558 Expression of the CG59371-0l gene is low/undetectable in all samples on this panel (CTs>35). (Data not shown.)

[1556] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3558 Highest expression of the CG59371-01 gene is seen in a breast cancer cell line (CT=23.4). Overall, expression of this gene is significantly higher in cancer cell lines and fetal derived tissues than in samples derived from normal adult tissues. There are significant levels of expression in clusters of cell lines derived from pancreatic, brain, colon, gastric, renal, lung, ovarian, breast and melanoma cancers. Thus, expression of this gene in could be used to differentiate between the cancer derived samples and fetal tissues from other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of cancer. Furthermore, the much higher levels of expression in proliferative tissue suggest that this gene may be involved in cell proliferation. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of these cancers.

[1557] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1558] This molecule is a novel protein phosphatase expressed at moderate to low levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of neurologic disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1559] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag3558 Results from this experiment are in excellent agreement with results from Panel 1.4. Please see that panel for discussion of utility of this gene in cancer, metabolic disorders and the central nervous system.

[1560] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag3558 Two experiments with the same probe and primer produce results that are in excellent agreement, with highest expression of the CG59371-01 gene in colon cancer (CTs=30). Furthermore, expression is higher in kidney, lung, ovary and colon cancers when compared to normal adjacent tissue. In addition, significant expression is also seen in gastric, breast, and bladder cancer. Thus, expression of this gene in could be used to differentiate between the cancer derived samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of these cancers.

[1561] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3558 The CG59371-01 gene is widely expressed among the samples on this panel, with highest expression in dermal fibroblasts treated with TNF-alpha. Significant levels of expression are also seen in treated and untreated samples from skin, lung, T-cells and B-cells. Therefore, modulation of the expression or activity of the protein encoded by this transcript through the application of antibodies or peptides therapeutics may be beneficial for the treatment of lung inflammatory diseases such as asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, ulcerative dermatitis, and ulcerative colitis, autoimmune diseases such as Crohn's disease, lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and in other diseases in which T cells and B cells are activated.

[1568] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3550 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG59346-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1569] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3550 Highest expression of the CG59346-01 gene is seen in the brain. Expression of this gene is seen at high levels in the cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and thalamus and at moderate levels in the amygdala, hippocampus, and thalamus. This CG59346-01 gene encodes a homologue of Proline-rich synapse-associated protein-1/cortactin binding protein 1 (ProSAP1/CortBP1). ProSAP1 is PDZ-domain protein highly enriched in the postsynaptic density (PSD) and involved in in the assembly of the PSD during neuronal differentiation that may function with contactin, in the recruitment and activation of neural intracellular signaling pathways. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1570] In addition, moderate levels of expression are seen in colon, gastric, renal, pancreatic, lung, ovarian, breast and prostate cancer cell lines. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to detect the presence of cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of these cancers.

[1571] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1572] In addition, this gene is expressed at higher levels in fetal lung and kidney (CTs=29) when compared to expression in adult lung and kidney (CTs=35-40). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between the two sources of lung and kidney tissue.

[1575] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3550 Highest expression of the CG59346-01 gene is seen in thymus (CT=27). In addition, significant levels of expression are seen in IL-4, IL-9, IL-13 and IFN gamma activated-NCI-H292 mucoepidermoid cells as well as untreated NCI-H292 cells. Moderate/low expression is also detected in IL-4, IL-9, IL-13 and IFN gamma activated lung fibroblasts, small airway epithelium (treated and untreated), and treated bronchial epithelium. The expression of this gene in cells derived from or within the lung suggests, that this gene may be involved in normal conditions as well as pathological and inflammatory lung disorders that include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, allergy and emphysema.

[1576] In addition, significant levels of expression are seen in treated and untreated dermal fibroblasts and keratinocytes, suggesting that modulation of the expression or function of this gene may also reduce symtptoms in inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and ulcerative dermatitis.

[1594] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag3206 Expression of the CG59494-01 gene is restricted to a sample derived from a prostate cancer cell line (CT=34.9). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of prostate cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of prostate cancer.

[1595] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3206 Expression of the CG59494-01 gene is primarily restricted to a cluster of samples derived from microvasculature of the lung and the dermis suggesting a role for this gene in the maintenance of the integrity of the microvasculature. Therefore, therapeutics designed for this putative protein could be beneficial for the treatment of diseases associated with damaged microvasculature including heart diseases or inflammatory diseases, such as psoriasis, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.

[1601] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag5938 Highest expression of the CG59432-01 gene is seen in a gastric cancer cell line (CT=32.5). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel. In addition, low expression of this gene is seen in colon cancer CaCo-2, lung cancer NCI-H526, ovarian cancer OVCAR-5, and squamous cell carcinoma SCC-4 cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, through the use of small molecule drugs, protein therapeutics or antibodies, might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1602] Significant expression is also detected in fetal skeletal muscle and adult skeletal muscle (CT=32.5). At least 50 disease-causing mutations in the skeletal muscle voltage-gated chloride channel gene (CLCN1), almost all of which originate from Caucasian families, have been identified. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene product, a chloride channel homolog, may be a treatment for myotonia congenita and other muscle channelopathies.

[1603] In addition, this gene is expressed at low levels in most regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, and cerebral cortex. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1612] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3427 This panel confirms the expression of CG59383-01 gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1613] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3427 Highest expression of the CG59383-01 gene is seen in a colon cancer cell line (CT=27.2). Significant expression is also seen in a cluster of samples derived from ovarian cancer cell lines. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker for the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of ovarian or colon cancers.

[1614] This molecule is also expressed at low levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of neurologic disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1615] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at low levels in adipose and pancreas. This expression suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes

[1616] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3427 Highest expression of the CG59383-01 gene is seen in keratinocytes treated with the inflammatory cytokines TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta (CT=30.3). Therefore, modulation of the expression or activity of the protein encoded by this transcript through the application of small molecule therapeutics may be useful in the treatment of asthma, COPD, emphysema, psoriasis and wound healing.

[1630] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3349 Highest expression of the CG57851-01 gene is seen in a lung cancer cell line (CT=30). Thus, expression of this gene may be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker for lung cancer. This gene encodes a sulfotransferase homolog. Sulfotransferases are involved in the metabolism of drugs and endogenous compounds in the body and also synthesize the complex glycoproteins found on the cell surface of cancer cells. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of lung cancer.

[1631] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in adipose and pancreas. This expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal metabolic function and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1632] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3349 Highest expression of the CG57851-01 gene is seen in the thymus (CT=29.7). The putative protein encoded by this gene could therefore play an important role in T cell development. Small molecule therapeutics designed against the protein encoded by this gene could be utilized to modulate immune function (T cell development) and be important for organ transplant, AIDS treatment or post chemotherapy immune reconstitution.

[1633] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3349 Expression of the CG57851-01 gene is low/undetectable in all samples on this panel (CTs>35). (Data not shown.)

[1646] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3471 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG59564-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1647] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3471 The CG59564-01 gene, a sorting nexin homolog, shows highly brain preferential expression. Moderate levels of expression are seen in all brain regions examined, with highest expression in the fetal brain (CT=28.5). Thus, this gene would be useful for distinguishing brain tissue from non-neural tissue, and may be beneficial as a drug target in neurologic disease, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1648] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1649] In addition, this gene is expressed at significant levels in a breast cancer cell line (CT=28.6). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate this sample from other samples on this panel and as a marker for breast cancer.

[1650] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3471 The CG59564-01 gene, a sorting nexin homolog, is most highly expressed in normal colon (CT=30). In addition, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1657] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3465 This panel does not show differential expression of the CG59553-01 gene in Alzheimer's disease. However, this expression profile confirms the presence of this gene in the brain. Please see Panel 1.4 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1658] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3465 Highest expression of the CG59553-01 gene is seen in a brain cancer cell line (CTs=24). Expression of this gene is ubiquitous throughout this panel, with significant levels of expression in clusters of cell lines derived from brain, renal, colon, lung, breast, ovarian, and melanoma cancers. These high levels of expression in all the samples on this panel suggest a role for this gene in cell growth and proliferation.

[1659] This molecule is also expressed at high levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of neurologic disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1660] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1661] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3465 The CG59553-01 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1668] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3437 This panel confirms the expression of CG59435-01 gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1669] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3437 The CG59435-01 is gene is ubiquitously expressed in this panel, with highest expression in a gastric cancer cell line (CT=26.5). In addition, significant levels of expression are evident in cell lines from brain cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker to detect the presence of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of these cancers.

[1670] In addition, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among metabolic tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1671] In addition, the CG59435-01 gene encodes a homologue of mouse NEDD1 protein. Nedd is an acronym of “neural precursor cell expressed developmentally and down-regulated” (Ref 1) The developmentally regulated mouse gene Nedd1 encodes a protein with similarities to the beta subunit of heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins that has growth suppressing activity when overexpressed in various cultured cell types. Neddl mRNA is shown to be strongly expressed in early embryonic brain and may play a role in the differentiation-coupled growth arrest in neuronal cells (Ref. 2). The moderate to low levels (CT=30-0.33) in all regions of the central nervous system examined suggest that this gene product may also play a role in the differentiation-coupled growth arrest in neuronal cells. Furthermore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney.

[1688] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3553 This panel confirms the expression of CG59354-03 gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1689] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3553 The CG59354-03 gene is ubiquitously expressed in this panel, with highest expression in a brain cancer cell line (CT=25.9). In addition, significant levels of expression are seen in cell lines derived from colon, breast, ovarian, renal, lung, prostate, and melanoma cancers. Furthermore, higher levels of expression are seen in fetal liver and lung (CTs=27-28) when compared to expression in the adult tissues (CTs=30-33). The high levels of expression in fetal tissue and cancer cell lines, both of which are highly proliferative, suggests that this gene product may be involved in cell growth and differentiation. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of cancer.

[1690] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases;, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1691] In addition, this gene is expressed at high levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The CG59354-03 gene encodes a splice variant of phosphoducin-like protein (PHLP). PDCL is a putative modulator of heterotrimeric G proteins. It was initially isolated as the product of an ethanol-responsive gene in neural cell cultures (Ref. 1). PDCL shares extensive amino acid sequence homology with phosducin (PDC), a phosphoprotein expressed in retina and pineal gland that inhibits several G protein-coupled signaling pathways by binding to the beta-gamma subunits, of G proteins. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1693] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3553 The CG59354-03 gene is ubiquitously expressed in this panel, with highest expression in B cells treated with polk-weed mitogen (CT=27.2). In addition, this gene is expressd at is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1699] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3544 Expression of the CG59319-02 gene is low/undetectable in all samples on this panel (CTs>35). (Data not shown.)

[1700] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3544 Expression of the CG59319-02 gene is restricted to a sample derived from the testis (CT=29.8). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker of testicular tissue. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of male infertility or hypogonadism.

[1701] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3544 Expression of the CG59319-02 gene is restricted to samples derived from the basophil cell line KU-812 (CTs=32). Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker of this cell type. Furthermore, the specific pattern of expression of this gene suggests that therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of the protein encoded by this gene may block or inhibit inflammation or tissue damage due to basophil activation in response to asthma, allergies, hypersensitivity reactions, psoriasis, and viral infections.

[1709] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3478 Expression of the CG59576-01 gene is restricted to a sample derived from liver cirrhosis (CT=32.3). Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected in normal liver in Panel 1.4, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. This gene encodes a putative GPCR; therefore, antibodies or small molecule therapeutics could reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, antibodies to this putative GPCR could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis.

[1724] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3467 The CG59555-01 gene encodes a putative GPCR. It is expressed at low to moderate levels in most of the samples used in this panel. This panel confirms the expression of CG59555-01 gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 10.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1725] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3467 The CG59555-01 gene encodes a putative GPCR. It is expressed at low to moderate levels in large number of the samples used in this panel. Highest expression of this gene is detected in fetal lung (CT=28). Interestingly, this gene is expressed at much higher levels in fetal (CT=28) when compared to adult lung (CT=31). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish fetal lung from adult lung and from other samples used in this panel. In addition, this gene is also expressed at much higher levels in fetal fetal liver (CT=32) as compared to adult liver (CT=38). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish fetal liver from adult liver.

[1726] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases;, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1727] This gene is also expressed at low levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Several neurotransmitter receptors are GPCRs, including the dopamine receptor family, the serotonin receptor family, the GABAB receptor, muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, and others; thus this GPCR may represent a novel neurotransmitter receptor. Targeting various neurotransmitter receptors (dopamine, serotonin) has proven to be an effective therapy in psychiatric illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression. Furthermore, the cerebral cortex and hippocampus are regions of the brain that are known to be involved in Alzheimer's disease, seizure disorders, and in the normal process of memory formation. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1728] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3467 The CG59555-01 gene encodes a putative GPCR. Highest expression of this gene is detected in resting primary Th1 cells (CT=27). This gene is expressed at moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests; that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1734] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3463

[1735] Expression of the CG59551-01 gene is low/undetectable in all the samples on this panel. (Data not shown.)

[1736] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3463 The CG59551-01 gene encodes a putative GPCR. Highest expression of this gene is detected in an ovarian cancer cell line SK-OV-3 (CT=34). In addition, low expression of this gene is also observed in fetal skeletal muscle (CT=34.4), one of the lung cancer cell line (CT=34.9), and testis (CT=34.3). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish these sample from other samples used in this panel. In addition, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the GPCR encoded by this gene may be useful in the treatment of ovarian and lung cancer, fertility, hypogonadism, and muscle related diseases.

[1737] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3463 The CG59551-01 gene encodes a putative GPCR. Highest expression of this gene is seen in KU-812 cells treated with PMA/ionomycin (CT=30.86). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish this sample from other samples used in this panel. In addition, expression of this gene is high in KU-812 (basophils) cells treated with PMA/ionomycin (CT=30.86) as compared to resting KU-812 cells (CT=34.66). Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish resting from PMA/ionomycin treated-basophils. It is known that GPCR-type receptors are important in multiple physiological responses mediated by basophils (ref. 1). Therefore, antibody or small molecule therapies designed with the protein encoded for by this gene could block or inhibit inflammation or tissue damage due to basophil activation in response to asthma, allergies, hypersensitivity reactions, psoriasis, and viral infections.

[1746] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3460 Expression of the CG59540-01 gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) across the samples in this panel.

[1747] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3460 Expression of the CG59540-01 gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) across the samples in this panel.

[1748] Panel 1.2 Summary: Ag1519 The expression of the CG59540-01 gene appears to be highest in a sample derived from a colon cancer cell line (HCC-2998) (CT=28.2). In addition, there is substantial expression associated with normal kidney and bladder. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish these tissues from other tissues in the panel. In addition there was noted expression clustered in ovarian, renal and colon cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene, through the use of small molecule drugs, antibodies or protein therapeutics might be of use in the treatment of colon cancer, renal cancer or ovarian cancer.

[1749] Among tissues with metabolic function, there is moderate expression in fetal and adult heart, adrenal, and pancreas. This expression suggests that therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of the protein encoded by this gene may be useful in the treatment of diseases that involve these tissues, including obesity and diabetes.

[1750] In addition, there appears to be higher levels of expression in adult heart (CT=31) when compared to expression in fetal heart (CT=34.4). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between adult and fetal heart tissue. Conversely, expression of this gene is higher in fetal lung (CT=34.5) than in adult lung (CT=40). Thus, expression of this gene could also be used to differentiate between adult and fetal lung.

[1751] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag1519 Significant expression the CG59540-01 gene is limited to a sample derived from colorectal tissue (CT=34.3). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel, and between coloreclal tissue and other normal or malignant tissues.

[1752] Panel 2D Summary: Ag1519 The expression of the CG59540-01 gene in panel 2 appears to be highest in a samples derived from normal kidney tissue (CT=32). In addition there appears to be substantial difference in expression between normal kidney adjacent to cancer tissue and the cancer tissue itself. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish normal kidney tissue from other samples in the panel. In addition, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish normal kidney from malignant tissue. Moreover, therapeutic modulation of this gene, through the use of small molecule drugs, antibodies or protein therapeutics might be of use in the treatment of kidney cancer.

[1758] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3527 Expression of the CG59280-01 gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) across the samples in this panel. (Data not shown.)

[1759] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3527 Expression of the CG59280-01 gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) across the samples in this panel. (Data not shown.) This gene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), a type of cell surface receptor involved in signal transduction. It is most similar to members of the odorant receptor subfamily of GPCRs. Based on analogy to other odorant receptor genes, we predict that expression of this gene may be highest in nasal epithelium, a sample not represented on this panel.

[1760] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3527 Highest expression of the CG59280-01 gene is seen in the liver cirrhosis sample (CT=31.81). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample from the other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of liver cirrhosis. Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected in normal liver in Panel 1.4, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. This gene encodes a putative GPCR; therefore, antibodies or small molecule therapeutics could reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, antibodies to this putative GPCR could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis.

Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish this sample from other samples on this panel and as a marker for lung cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the GPCR encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of lung cancer.

[1783] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3398/Ag3404 Expression of the CG59222-01 gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) across the samples in this panel. (Data not shown.)

[1784] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3398/Ag3404 Two experiments with two different probe and primer sets produce results that are in excellent agreement, with significant expression of the CG59222-01 gene exclusively in a lung cancer cell line sample (CT=33.8). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to this sample from other samples on this panel and as a marker for lung cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the GPCR encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of lung cancer.

[1785] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3404 Highest expression of the CG59222-01 gene is seen in the liver cirrhosis sample (CT=32.65). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample from the other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of liver cirrhosis. Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected in normal liver in Panel 1.4, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. This gene encodes a putative GPCR; therefore, antibodies or small molecule therapeutics could reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, antibodies to this putative GPCR could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis. Ag3398 Expression of CG59222-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (Data not shown).

[1792] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3402 The CG59220-01 gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The GPCR family of receptors contains a large number of neurotransmitter receptors, including the dopamine, serotonin, a and b-adrenerlyic, acetylcholine muscarinic, histamine, peptide, and metabotropic glutamate receptors. GPCRs are excellent drug targets in various neurologic and psychiatric diseases. All antipsychotics have been shown to act at the dopamine D2 receptor; similarly novel antipsychotics also act at the serotonergic receptor, and often the muscarinic and adrenergic receptors as well. While the majority of antidepressants can be classified as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, blockade of the 5-HT1A and a2 adrenergic receptors increases the effects of these drugs. The GPCRs are also of use as drug targets in the treatment of stroke. Blockade of the glutamate receptors may decrease the neuronal death resulting from excitotoxicity; further more the purinergic receptors have also been implicated as drug targets in the treatment of cerebral ischemia. The b-adrenergic receptors have been implicated in the treatment of ADHD with Ritalin, while the a-adrenergic receptors have been implicated in memory. Therefore this gene may be of use as a small molecule target for the treatment of any of the described diseases.

[1793] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3402 The CG59220-01 gene represents a novel G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) with highest expression in spinal cord sample (CT=31.12) and moderate expression in other samples from brain. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1794] Low levels of expression of the CG59220-01 gene are also observed in areas outside of the central nervous system such as the, adipose tissue, fetal and adult heart, skeletal muscle, adrenal gland, pituitary gland, and thyroid suggesting the possibility of a wider role in intercellular signaling. Therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may therefore be useful in the treatment of metabolic disorders, including obesity and diabetes.

[1795] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3402 The CG59220-01 gene represents a novel G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) with highest expression in colon (CT=33.12). Thus expression of this gene can be used to distinguish these samples from other samples used in this panel. In addition, expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) in samples derived from IBD colitis and IBS Crohn's. Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish normal colon sample from the IBD colitis and IBD Crohn's sample used in this panel.

[1800] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3401 Expression of the CG59218-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1801] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3401 Expression of the CG59218-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown). This gene product is most similar to members of the odorant receptor subfamily of GPCRs. Based on analogy to other odorant receptor genes, we predict that expression of this gene may be highest in nasal epithelium, a sample not represented on this panel.

[1802] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3401 Highest expression of the CG59218-01 gene is seen in the liver cirrhosis sample (CT=33.03). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample from the other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of liver cirrhosis. Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected in normal liver in Panel 1.4, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. This gene encodes a putative GPCR; therefore, antibodies or small molecule therapeutics could reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, antibodies to this putative GPCR could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis.

[1806] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3397 Expression of the CG59211-01 gene is low/undetectable (CT values>35) across the samples in this panel. (Data not shown.) This gene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), a type of cell surface receptor involved in signal transduction. It is most similar to members of the odorant receptor subfamily of GPCRs. Based on analogy to other odorant receptor genes, we predict that expression of this gene may be highest in nasal epithelium, a sample not represented on this panel.

[1807] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3397 Significant expression of the CG59211-01 gene is seen exclusively in one of the lung cancer sample (CT=32.29). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish this sample from other samples on this panel and as a marker for lung cancer. There is an increasing awareness that some GPCRs can regulate proliferative signaling pathways and that chronic stimulation or mutational activation of receptors can lead to oncogenic transformation. Activating mutations in GPCRs are associated with several types of human tumors and some receptors exhibit potent oncogenic activity due to agonist overexpression (Whitehead et al., 2001). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the GPCR encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of lung cancer.

[1817] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3524 No differential expression of the CG59276-01 gene is detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. However, as observed in panel 1.4 this gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1818] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3524 Expression of the CG59276-01 gene is highest in a sample derived from a brain and lung cancer cell lines (CTs=29). Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish these samples from the other samples in the panel. The CG59276-01 gene encodes a dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) homolog. DHODH is an enzyme involved in the pathway for pyrimidine production. Drugs known to inhibit DHODH activity, such as brequinar sodium (Dup-785), have been shown to have anti-tumor activities (ref. 1). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of CNS and lung cancer. In addition, low to moderate expression of this gene is seen in all of the samples on this panel. Therefore, this gene may be playing an important role in cellular function.

[1819] This gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in a number of tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, including adipose, adrenal gland, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, and skeletal muscle. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1820] Recently, it has been demonstrated that down regulation of DHODH mRNA using RNA interference (RNAi) may inhibit growth of Plasmodium falciparum (ref 2). REFERENCES

[1823] Panel 2D Summary: Ag3524 The expression of this gene appears to be highest in a sample derived from a normal liver tissue (CT=30.3). In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from liver cancers and breast cancers. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish normal liver tissue from other samples in the panel. Moreover, therapeutic modulation of this gene, through the use of small molecule drugs, protein therapeutics or antibodies could be of benefit in the treatment of liver or breast cancer.

[1824] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3524 Highest expression of the CG59276-01 gene is detected in resting primary Th1 cells (CT=30.03). In addition, the expression of this gene is significantly reduced in activated primary Th1 cells, suggesting a regulatory role for this gene in T-cell activation. The CG59276-01 encodes a dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in the pathway for pyrimidine production. Recently, an inhibitor of this enzyme, leflunomide has been shown to be an effective treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (ref 1). Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded for by this transcript could be important in regulating T cell function and treating T cell mediated diseases such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, IBD, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

[1825] Overall, this gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation.

[1826] Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1828] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3524 This gene has a low level of expression in adipose tissue (CTs=33-35). Thus, this gene product may be a small molecule drug for the treatment of obesity and obesity-related diseases, including Type 2 diabetes.

[1833] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3523 Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1834] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3523 Expression of the CG59268-01 gene is highest in sample derived from liver cancer cell line (CT=32.55). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish liver cancers from the other samples on this panel. In addition, low levels of expression of this gene are also observed in one of the ovarian cancer, 2 of the breast cancer, 2 of the renal cancer, bladder, gastric cancer, 3 of the colon cancer, and 4 of the CNS cancer samples. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene product may be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1835] Among the tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low levels in adipose tissue sample. Adipose tissue has several crucial roles including (i) mobilization from stores of fatty acids as an energy source, (ii) catabolism of lipoproteins such as very-low-density lipoprotein and (iii) synthesis and release of hormonal signals such as leptin and interleukin-6 (Coppack et al., 2001). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity, hyperlipidemia, and insulin resistance.

[1837] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3523 Expression of the CG59268-01 gene is highest in sample derived from colon (CT=31.56). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish colon sample from the other samples on this panel. In addition, significant expression of this gene is also observed in IBD Crohn's sample (CT=32.16). Thus, expression of this gene in colon and Crohn's sample can be used to distinguish these two samples from IBD Colitis 2 sample. In addition, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene product may be beneficial in the treatment of IBD Crohn's disease.

[1842] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3464 Expression of the CG59549-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1843] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3464 Expression of the CG59549-01 gene is highest in a CNS cancer (glio) SF-295 sample (CT=31.15). Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish this sample from the other samples in the panel. In addition, low to moderate expression of this gene is detected in a melanoma and a CNS cancer sample. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene or its protein product may be beneficial in the treatment of melanoma and CNS cancer.

[1844] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3464 Low but significant expression of the CG59549-01 gene is detected exclusively in liver cirrhosis sample (CT=33.4). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish liver cirrhosis from the other samples on this panel. Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected in normal liver in Panel 1.3D, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. Therefore, antibodies or small molecule therapeutics could reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, antibodies to this gene product could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis.

[1848] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3502 The CG59641-01 encodes an acetyl-CoA carboxylase 2 (ACC2) protein. Expression of this gene is highest in adipose tissue (CT=25.5). High levels of expression of this gene are also detected in other tissues with metabolic or endocrine function such as pancreas, adrenal gland, gastrointestinal tract, heart, skeletal muscle, and thyroid. Acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) carboxylase (ACC) catalyzes the synthesis of malonyl-CoA, a metabolite that plays a pivotal role in the synthesis and oxidation of fatty. Hence, ACC links fatty acid and carbohydrate metabolism through the shared intermediate acetyl-CoA, the product of pyruvate dehydrogenase. It has been shown recently that mutations in ACC2 gene lead to loss of body fat in a normal caloric intake in mouse (Abu-Elheiga et al., 2001). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1849] Low to moderate expression of this gene is also detected in most of the samples used in this panel suggesting the possibility of a wider role in intercellular signaling for this molecule.

[1850] Among tissues that originate in the central nervous system, this gene is expressed in all regions represented on this panel. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of neurologic disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1851] In addition, significantly higher levels of expression are seen in a breast cancer cell line. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of breast cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of breast cancer.

[1858] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3425 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1859] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3425 The CG59630-01 gene is a homologue of mouse midnoline (midbrain nucleolar protein). Its expression is moderate to high across all of the samples on this panel, with highest expression in a breast cancer cell line (CT=25.3). The widespread expression suggests that this gene may play an important role in cellular function. In mouse, the expression of this gene is developmentally regulated: it is strongly expressed at the mesencephalon (midbrain) of the embryo and is involved in regulation of genes related to neurogenesis in the nucleolus (Tsukahara et al., 2000). Based on the gene's expression in all CNS regions examined, this gene may therefore play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1860] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1862] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3425 The CG59630-01 gene is a homologue of mouse midnoline (midbrain nucleolar protein). Its expression is moderate to high across all of the samples on this panel, with highest expression in resting neutrophils (CT=29.1). In addition, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[1868] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3424 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59561-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. This expression profile suggests that this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1869] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3424 Results from one experiment with the CG59561-01 gene are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run. (Data not shown.)

[1870] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3424 The CG59561-01 gene encodes a protein homologous to cytosolic acyl coenzyme A thioester hydrolase (Brain acyl-CoA hydrolase, BACH). Among the tissue samples used in this panel, highest expression of this gene is detected in thymus (CT=29.6). In addition, expression of this gene is stimulated in activated primary and secondary—Th1, Th2 and Tr1 cells. Therefore, this gene product may play an important role in T cell development. Thus, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded for by this transcript could be important in regulating T cell function and treating T cell mediated diseases such as emphysema, asthma, arthritis, psoriasis, IBD, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

[1871] Interestingly, expression of this gene is also seen in activated PBMCs (CTs=30) as compared to resting PBMCs (CT=36) suggesting a role for this gene product in B-cell and T-cell proliferation. Therefore, small molecules that antagonize the function of this gene product may be useful as therapeutic drugs to reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B cells play a part in the initiation or progression of the disease process, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1872] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3424 The CG59561-01 gene is expressed at low levels in adipose and placenta, with highest expression in the kidney (CT=30.8). As an enzyme involved in lipid homeostasis, therapeutic modulation of this gene product may be a treatment for obesity and obesity-related diseases, including Type 2 diabetes.

[1885] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3476 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59572-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1886] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3476 Highest expression of the CG59572-01 gene is detected in a breast cancer cell line sample (CT=27.4). Furthermore, moderate to high expression of this gene is detected in CNS cancer, colon cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, through the use of small molecule drugs, protein therapeutics or antibodies, might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1887] This gene is expressed at low to moderate levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1888] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1889] In addition, this gene is expressed at much higher levels in fetal lung and liver tissue (CTs=30) when compared to expression in the adult counterpart (CTs=33). Thus, expression of this gene may be used to differentiate between the fetal and adult source of these tissues.

[1890] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3476 Highest expression of the CG59572-01 gene is detected in TNFalpha+IL-1 beta treated keratinocytes (CT=27.2). Expression of this gene appears to be stimulated in activated secondary Th1, Th2 and Tr1 cells, PWM treated PBMCs, PWM treated 13-lymphocytes, IL-2/IL-2+IL-12/IL-2+IFN gamma/IL-2+IL-18 treated LAK cells, and TNFalpha+IL-1beta treated small airway epithelium (CTs=28-30). Thus, this gene may be important in the activation of T and B cells or the function of activated T and B cells. Therefore, small molecules that antagonize the function of this gene product may reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B and T cells play a part in the initiation or progression of the disease process, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1894] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3456 Expression of CG59522-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1895] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3456 Expression of CG59522-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1896] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3456 Highest expression of the CG59522-01 gene is detected in sample derived from resting primary Th1 cells (CT=29.8). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish this sample from other samples in this panel. This gene is also expressed at low but significant levels in T cells prepared under a number of conditions, LAK cells, macrophages and dendritic cells also express the transcript. The only non-hematopoietic cell type that expresses the transcript detected by this primer and probe at significant levels is dermal fibroblasts. Colon and kidney also express low levels of the transcript. Thus, this transcript or the protein it encodes could be used to detect hematopoietically-derived cells. Furthermore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded by this transcript could be important in the regulation the function of antigen presenting cells (macrophages and dendritic cells) or T cells and be important in the treatment of asthma, emphysema, psoriasis, arthritis, and IBD. Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded for by this transcript could be important in regulating T cell function and treating T and B cell mediated diseases such as asthma, arthritis, psoriasis, IBD, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

[1901] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag5923 Expression of the CG59520-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>34.5) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1902] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag5923 Highest expression of the CG59520-01 gene is detected in sample derived from a pancreatic cancer cell line (CT=31.5). Thus, expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples from the panel and as a marker for pancreatic cancer. In addition low levels of expression of this gene are associated with samples derived from CNS, colon, gastric, renal, lung, breast, ovarian and melanoma cnacer cell lines. This gene encodes a farnesyl pyrophosphate synthetase, which is involved in cholesterol biosynthesis. It has been suggested that in several types of cancer, activation of p21 would be aided by continuous farnesylation due to stimulation of the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway in tumors (Rao, 1995). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of protein encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1903] In addition, low but significant levels of expression in the pancreas suggest that this gene product may be useful in the treatment of type II diabetes.

[1912] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3509 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment.

[1913] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3509 Highest expression of the CG59704-01 gene is detected in a sample derived from a lung cancer cell line (CT=31.69). Thus, expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in this panel. Furthermore, moderate expression of this gene is associated with cell lines derived from pancreatic, brain, colon, gastric, renal, lung, breast and ovarian cancers. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, through the use of small molecule drugs, or antibodies, might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1914] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3509 Expression of the CG59704-01 gene is stimulated in T cells, LAK cells and B cells, with highest expression in primary activated Tr1 cells (CT=32). Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded for by this transcript could be important in regulating T and B cell function and treating T cell/B cell mediated diseases such as asthma, arthritis, psoriasis, IBD, allergies, hypersensitivity reactions, microbial and viral infections systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and systemic lupus erythematosus.

[1915] Furthermore, expression of this gene is decreased in colon samples from patients with IBD colitis and Crohn's disease relative to normal colon. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene product may be useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

[1916] Panel 5 Islet Summary: Ag3509 Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1921] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3500 Results from one experiment with the CG59628-01 gene are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[1922] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3500 Highest expression of the CG59628-01 gene is detected in a sample derived from a CNS cancer cell line (CT=31.1). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish this sample from the other samples on this panel. In addition, significant expression of this gene is associated with samples derived from colon, ovarian, breast, renal, lung, melanoma, and brain cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1923] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at low but significant levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1924] This molecule is also expressed at low levels in the CNS, including the hippocampus, thalamus, substantia nigra and cerebral cortex. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of neurologic disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, stroke and epilepsy.

[1925] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3500 Highest expression of the CG59628-01 gene is detected in colon (CT=30.3). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish colon from the other tissues on this panel. Furthermore, expression of this gene is decreased in colon samples from patients with IBD colitis and Crohn's disease relative to normal colon. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the GPCR encoded by this gene may be useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

[1933] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3506/Ag3581 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59671-02 gene at significant levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment.

[1934] This gene is expressed at moderate levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord as observed in panel 1.4. Therefore, this gene may play a role in other central nervous system disorders such as, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression

[1935] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3506/Ag3581 Two experiments produce results that are in very good agreement. Highest expression of the CG59671-02 gene is observed in samples derived from melanoma cell lines (CTs=23-35). Thus, expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing these samples from other samples in the panel. In addition, significant levels of expression of this gene are also associated with colon cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1936] This gene is also expressed at low to moderate levels in a number of tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, including adipose, adrenal gland, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, skeletal muscle and thyroid. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[1937] This gene is also expressed at high to moderate levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1938] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3581 Highest expression of the CG59671-02 gene is observed in the resting KU-812 sample (CT=29.18). In addition, high expression of this gene is detected in colon, lung, thymus and kidney. Therefore, therapies designed with the protein encoded for by this gene could be important in the treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases that affect the kidney, lung and kidney including, asthma, allergies, lupus and glomerulonephritis. Expression of this gene is decreased in colon samples from patients with IBD colitis and Crohn's disease relative to normal colon. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the protein encoded by this gene may also be useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

[1939] Expression of this gene appears to be down-regulated in activated primary and secondary Th1, Th2, and Tr1 cells. Also, TNF alpha stimulates the expression of this gene in resting dermal fibroblasts. Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded by this transcript could be important in regulating T cell function and treating diseases such as asthma, arthritis, psoriasis, IBD, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

[1940] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3506 Highest expression of CG59671-02 is observed colon sample (CT=27.3). Overall, the expression pattern using this probe is in excellent agreement with results in panel 4.1 D for Ag3581. Please see that panel for discussion of utility of this gene in inflammation.

[1941] CC. CG56870-01: NDR3

[1942] Expression of gene CG56870-01 was assessed using the primer-probe set Ag2075, described in Table CCA. Results of the RTQ-PCR runs are shown in Tables CCB, CCC, CCD and CCE. Please note that CG56870-02 represents a full-length physical clone of the CG56870-01 gene, validating the prediction of the gene sequence.

[1948] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag2075 Highest expression of the CG56870-01 gene is detected in the cerebral cortex (CT=24.2). Thus expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in the panel. Furthermore, significant expression of this gene is observed throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The CG56870-01 gene encodes an Ndr3 homolog which is a putative member of Ndr family. This family consists of proteins from different gene families: Ndr1/RTP/Drg1/NDRG1, Ndr2, and Ndr3 (PFAM: IPR004142). NDRG1 is a cytoplasmic protein involved in stress responses, hormone responses, cell growth, and differentiation. Mutation of this gene was reported to be causative for hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Lom. Recently, NDRG4, another memember of Ndr family, was shown to be expressed in neurons of the brain and spinal cord. Its expression was markedly decreased in the brain of Alzheimer's disease patient (Zhou et al., 2001). Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1949] This gene also has moderate levels of expression in adipose, adrenal, thyroid, liver, heart, thyroid and skeletal muscle. Thus, this gene product may be important in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes and obesity.

[1950] In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from breast cancer cell lines, lung cancer cell lines, renal cancer cell lines and colon cancer cell lines. Thus, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of breast, lung, renal or colon cancer.

[1952] Ag2075 The expression of this gene appears to be highest in a sample derived from a normal brain tissue. In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from breast cancer cell lines, lung cancer cell lines, renal cancer cell lines and colon cancer cell lines. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish normal brain tissue from other samples in the panel. Moreover, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of breast, lung, renal or colon cancer.

[1953] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag2075 Highest expression of CG56870-01 is detected in breast cancer sample (CT=29.89). Thus expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in the panel. In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from breast cancers, kidney cancers and colon cancers. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this could be of benefit in the treatment of breast, kidney or colon cancer.

[1954] Panel 3D Summary: Ag2075 The expression of this gene appears to be highest in a sample derived from a lung cancer cell line (DMS-79)(CT=26.4). In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from pancreatic cancer cell lines, lung cancer cell lines, brain cancer cell lines and cervical cancer cell lines. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish DMS-79 cells from other samples in the panel. Moreover, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of pancreatic, lung, brain or cervical cancer.

[1955] Panel 4D Summary: Ag2075 Expression of the CG56870-01 gene is ubiquitous througout this panel, with highest in samples derived from ionomycin treated Ramos (B cell) cells (CT=26.1). Furthermore, expression of this gene is also detected in PWM treated PBMC cells and PWM treated B lymphocytes. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the express ion or function of this gene may reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B cells play a part in the initiation or progression of the disease process, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1967] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag5279 This panel confirms the expression of the CG56870-04 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.5 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1968] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag5279 Highest expression of the CG56870-01 is detected in cerebral cortex (CT=25.02). Thus, expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in the panel. Furthermore, significant expression of this gene is observed throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The CG56870-01 gene encodes a Ndr3 protein homolog. The Ndr family is comprised of members from different gene families: Ndr1/RTP/Drg1/NDRG1, Ndr2, and Ndr3 (PFAM: IPR004142). NDRG1 is a cytoplasmic protein involved in stress responses, hormone responses, cell growth, and differentiation. Mutation of this gene was reported to be causative for hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Lom. Recently, NDRG4, another memember of Ndr family, was shown to be expressed in neurons of the brain and spinal cord. Its expression was markedly decreased in the brain of Alzheimer's disease patient (Zhou et al., 2001). Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1969] Among metabolic tissues, this gene is moderately expressed in adipose, adrenal, heart, thyroid, liver, pancreas, pituitary, and skeletal muscle. Thus, this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes and obesity.

[1970] In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from brain cancer cell lines, colon cancer cell lines, breast cancer cell lines and ovarian cancer cell lines. Moreover, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of brain, colon, breast or ovarian cancer.

[1972] Panel 1.3D Summary: Ag2075 Highest expression of the CG56870-01 gene is detected in the cerebral cortex (CT=24.2). This expression is consistent with expression in Panel 1.5. Please see that panel for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[1973] This gene also has moderate levels of expression in adipose, adrenal, thyroid, liver, heart, thyroid and skeletal muscle. Thus, this gene product may be important in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes and obesity.

[1974] In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from breast cancer cell lines, lung cancer cell lines, renal cancer cell lines and colon cancer cell lines. Thus, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of breast, lung, renal or colon cancer.

[1975] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag2075 Highest expression of CG56870-01 is detected in breast cancer sample (CT=29.89). Thus expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in the panel. In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from breast cancers, kidney cancers and colon cancers. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of breast, kidney or colon cancer.

[1976] Panel 3D Summary: Ag2075 The expression of this gene appears to be highest in a sample derived from a lung cancer cell line (DMS-79)(CT=26.4). In addition, there appears to be substantial expression in other samples derived from pancreatic cancer cell lines, lung cancer cell lines, brain cancer cell lines and cervical cancer cell lines. Thus, the expression of this gene could be used to distinguish DMS-79 cells from other samples in the panel. Moreover, therapeutic modulation of this gene could be of benefit in the treatment of pancreatic, lung, brain or cervical cancer.

[1977] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag5279 Expression of the CG56870-01 gene is highest in samples derived from TNF alpha treated dermal fibroblast CCD1070 cells (CT=30.6). Expression of this gene is also prominent in activated secondary and primarey Th1, Th2 and Tr1 cells when compared expression in the corresponding resting cell lines. Thus, this gene may be involved in T lymphocyte function. Therefore, therapeutic modulation to the expression or function of this gene may be as anti-inflammatory therapeutics for T cell-mediated autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, such as asthma, athritis, psoriasis, IBD, and lupus.

[1978] Panel 4D Summary: Ag2075 Expression of the CG56870-01 gene is ubiquitous throughout this panel, with highest in samples derived from ionomycin treated Ramos (B cell) cells (CT=26.1). Furthermore, expression of this gene is also detected in PWM treated PBMC cells and PWM treated B lymphocytes. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may reduce or eliminate the symptoms in patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in which B cells play a part in the initiation or progression of the disease process, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis.

[1984] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag5265 This panel confirms the expression of the CG56870-04 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.5 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1985] General_screening_panel_v1.5 Summary: Ag5265 Highest expression of the CG56870-05 gene is detected in cerebral cortex (CT=28.86). Thus, expression of this gene can be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in the panel. Furthermore, significant expression of this gene is observed throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The CG56870-05 gene encodes a putative Ndr3 protein. This family consists of proteins from different gene families: Ndr1/RTP/Drg1/NDRG1, Ndr2, and Ndr3 (PFAM: IPR004142). NDRG1 is a cytoplasmic protein involved in stress responses, hormone responses, cell growth, and differentiation. Mutation of this gene was reported to be causative for hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Lom. Recently, NDRG4, another memember of Ndr family, was shown to be expressed in neurons of the brain and spinal cord. Its expression was markedly decreased in the brain of Alzheimer's disease patient (Zhou et al., 2001). Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[1986] Among metabolic tissues, this gene has low levels of expression in heart, skeletal muscle, adrenal, thyroid, pancreas and pituitary. Therefore, this gene product may be important for the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and/or treatment of metabolic and endocrine disease, including Types 1 and 2 diabetes and obesity.

[1987] Overall, this gene is expressed in all the samples on this panel, with slightly higher levels of expression in the cancer cell lines compared to expression in the normal tissues samples.

[1988] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag5265 Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>34.5) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[1994] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3578 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59764-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[1995] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3578 Highest expression of the CG59764-01 gene is detected in sample derived from skeletal muscle (CT=31.2). Thus expression of this gene can be used to distinguish skeletal muscle sample from other samples used in this panel. This gene is also expressed at low but significant levels in heart and adipose. Thus, this gene product may be useful in the treatment of metabolic disorders that involve these tissues, including obesity.

[1996] Significant expression of this gene is also associated with samples derived from breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and lung cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[1997] In addition, this gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The CG59764-01 gene encodes a homologue of ferritin heavy chain protein (H-feritin). It has been hypothesized that the up-regulation of the H-ferritin mRNA is part of a mechanism protecting the hippocampus, a seizure-prone area, against a possible overactivation during absence seizures (Lakaye et al., 2000). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of seizure disorders, such as epilepsy. Furthermore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2005] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3512 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59710-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. However, as seen in panel 1.4, this gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in other central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2006] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3512 Highest expression of the CG59710-01 gene is detected in a sample derived from a breast cancer cell line (CT=25.3). Therefore, expression of this gene could be used in distinguishing this sample from other samples in the panel. Overall, expression of this gene appears to be associated with the cancer cell lines suggesting a role for this gene product in cellular growth and proliferation. Specifically, significant expression of this gene is associated with CNS cancer, colon cancer, gastric cancer, renal cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and melanoma cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[2022] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3577 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59671-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. As seen in panel 1.4, this gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in other central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2023] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3577 Highest expression of the CG59671-01 gene is detected in a gastric cancer cell line sample (CTs=27.3). In addition, significant expression of this gene is associated with clusters of cell lines derived from ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and gastric cancer. Therefore, expression of this gene might be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker for these cancers. The CG59671-01 gene encodes an Axin 1 protein, which is known play an important role in Wnt signalling transduction pathway. The Wnt/Wingless signaling transduction pathway plays an important role in both embryonic development and tumorigenesis. Beta-Catenin, a key component of the Wnt signaling pathway, interacts with the TCF/LEF family of transcription factors and activates transcription of Wnt target genes. A number of proteins such as the tumor suppressor APC and Axin are also involved in the regulation of the Wnt signaling pathway. Furthermore, mutations in APC or beta-catenin have been found to be responsible for the genesis of human cancers (Akiyama T, 2000). Recently, Dahmen et al. (2001) have shown presence of a single somatic point mutation in exon 1 (Pro255Ser) and deletion of seven large of AXIN1 (12%) in 86 medulloblastoma (MB) samples and 11 MB cell lines. Therefore, AXIN1 may play a role as tumor suppressor gene in MBs. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[2024] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2025] This gene is also expressed in all regions of the CNS examined. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[2028] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3577 Highest expression of the CG59671-01 gene is detected in resting NK Cells IL-2 cells (CTs=28.3). In addition, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2035] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3511 This panel confirms the expression of CG59708-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. However, as seen in panel 1.4, this gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in other central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2036] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3511 Highest expression of the CG59708-01 is detected in a gastric cancer cell line sample (CT=27.1). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish this sample from other samples in this panel. In addition, high levels of expression of this gene are associated with breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and gastric cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[2037] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2038] This gene is also expressed at moderate to low levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[2039] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3511 Highest expression of the CG59708-01 gene is detected in a IL-4 treated NCI-H292 sample (CT=26.4). In addition, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2046] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3469 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59559-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. However, as seen in panel 1.4, this gene is expressed at low levels throughout the CNS, including in amygdala, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in other central nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2047] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3469 Highest expression of the CG59559-01 gene is detected in sample derived from a lung cancer cell line (CT=25.6). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish this sample from other samples used in this panel. Furthermore, significant expression of this gene is associated with pancreatic cancer, CNS cancer and breast cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[2048] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2049] This gene is also expressed at low but significant levels in all regions of the CNS examined. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[2050] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3469 Highest expression of the CG59559-01 gene is detected in sample derived CD40L and IL-4 treated B lymphocytes (CT=27.2). Fur5hermore, this gene is expressed at significant levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2071] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3503 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[2072] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3503 Expression of the CG59644-01 gene is highest in adult skeletal muscle (CT=25.5). Interestingly, expression of this gene is much lower in fetal skeletal muscle (CT=29.9), suggesting that expression of this gene may be used to distinguish adult and fetal skeletal muscle.

[2073] The CG59644-01 gene encodes a protein with homology to protein phosphatases. This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in the majority of samples on this panel. However, expression of this gene appears to be higher in cancer cell lines when compared to normal adult tissues. This observation is consistent with the potential role for this gene product in cell survival and proliferation.

[2074] In addition, this gene is expressed at high levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2075] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2076] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3503 This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include T cells, B cells, endothelial cells, macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, basophils, eosinophils and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis., and osteoarthritis.

[2081] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3504 Expression of the CG59662-01 gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[2082] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3504 The CG59662-01 gene is expressed at low le,vels in the majority of samples on this panel, with highest expression in a melanoma cell line (CT=30). The CG59662-01 gene encodes a protein with homology to cyclophilin, a specific high-affinity binding protein for the immunosuppressant agent cyclosporin A.

[2083] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low levels in pancreas, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes. Interestingly, this gene is expressed at higher levels in fetal liver (CT=32.5) than in adult liver (CT=36.4), suggesting that expression of this gene can be used to distinguish fetal and adult liver.

[2084] In addition, this gene is expressed at low levels in some regions of the central nervous system, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2085] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3504 Significant expression of this gene is detected in a liver cirrhosis sample (CT=34.4). Furthermore, expression of this gene is not detected at significant levels in normal adult liver in Panel 1.4, suggesting that its expression is unique to liver cirrhosis. This gene encodes a putative cyclophilin; therefore, small molecule therapeutics could reduce or inhibit fibrosis that occurs in liver cirrhosis. In addition, expression of this putative cyclophilin could also be used for the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis.

[2091] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3580 Results from two experiments using the same probe/primer set are in excellent agreement. This panel confirms the expression of this gene at high to moderate levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. This gene is found to be upregulated in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer's disease patients. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene or its protein product may be used to decrease neuronal death and treat Alzheimer's disease.

[2092] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3580 The CG59773-01 gene encodes a splice variant of the myomegalin protein, which is a component of the golgi/centrosome and interacts with a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (ref. 1). Expression of the CG59773-01 gene is highest in the cerebellum (CT=23.8). In addition, this gene is expressed at high levels in all other regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2093] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2094] This gene is also expressed at very high levels in a number of melanoma cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may be of benefit in the treatment of melanoma.

[2096] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3580 This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include T cells, B cells, endothelial cells, macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, basophils, eosinophils and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2102] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3273 Two experiments with the same probe and primer set produce results that are in excellent agreement. This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low to moderate levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. Expression of this gene is found to be down-regulated in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer's disease patients. Therefore, up-regulation of this gene or its protein product, or treatment with specific agonists for this protein, may be of use in reversing the dementia/memory loss associated with Alzheimer's disease and neuronal death.

[2103] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3273 Highest expression of the CG57460-01 gene is seen in fetal heart (CT=28.6). In addition, this gene is expressed at much higher levels in fetal heart when compared to expression in the adult heart (CT=38). Thus, expression of this gene may be used to differentiate between the fetal and adult source of this tissue. In addition, the higher expression in fetal heart suggests that this protein product may be involved in the development of this organ. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of heart disease.

[2104] This gene also shows highly specific brain expression. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[2105] In addition, expression of this gene appears to be upregulated in a number of cancer cell lines when compared to the normal tissues. Specifically, expression of this gene appears to be higher in ovarian, breast, lung and renal cancer cell lines when compared to their respective normal tissues. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein may be of benefit in the treatment of ovarian, breast, lung and renal cancer. The CG57460-01 gene encodes a transmembrane protein with homology to N-acetyltransferase Camello 2, a protein involved in cellular adhesion (ref. 1).

[2107] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3273 Highest expression of the CG57460-01 is seen in eosinophils. In addition, differential expression is observed in the eosinophil cell line EOL-1 under resting conditions over that in EOL-1 cells stimulated by phorbol ester and ionomycin. Thus, this gene may be involved in eosinophil function. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may reduce eosinophil activation and be useful in the treatment of asthma and allergies.

[2108] In addition, significant expression in normal colon and thymus suggest a role for this gene in the normal homeostasis of these tissues. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may modulate immune function (T cell development) and be important for organ transplant, AIDS treatment or post chemotherapy immune reconstitution. Furthermore, since expression of this gene is decreased in colon samples from patients with IBD colitis and Crohn's disease relative to normal colon, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the protein encoded by this gene may be useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

[2115] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3248 Results from two experiments using the same probe/primer set gave results that are in excellent agreement. This panel confirms the expression of this gene at low levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[2116] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3248 Expression of the CG57464-01 gene is highest in a breast cancer cell line (CT=27). This also gene appears to be overexpressed in ovarian and CNS cancer cell lines when compared to the normal tissue controls. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein may be of benefit in the treatment of breast, ovarian and CNS cancer.

[2117] In addition, this gene is expressed at low levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2118] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2119] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag3248 This gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in the majority of samples on this panel, with highest expression detected in a sample derived from normal kidney (CT=28.6). Expression of the CG57464-01 gene appears to be upregulated in a number of breast cancer samples when compared to normal breast. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may be of benefit in the treatment of breast cancer.

[2120] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3248 Expression of the CG57464-01 gene is highest in Ramos B cells treated with ionomycin (CT=29). Therefore, expression of this gene may be used as a marker of activated B cells. In addition, this gene is expressed at relatively high levels in lung fibroblasts as well as in the mucoepidermoid cell line NCI-H292 independent of treatment (CTs=30), suggesting that therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may be of benefit in the treatment of asthma and emphysema.

[2121] This gene is also expressed at low to moderate levels in a wide range of other cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues.

[2122] This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation.

[2123] Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2130] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3249 The CG57466-01 gene encodes a protein with homology to beta-1,3-galactosyltransferases, which catalyze the formation of type I oligosaccharides (ref. 1). Expression of this gene is highest in a breast cancer cell line (CT=28.1). In addition, expression of this gene appears to be upregulated in pancreatic and gastric cancer cell lines when compared to their respective normal tissues. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may be of benefit in the treatment of breast, pancreatic and gastric cancer.

[2131] This gene also shows significant levels of expression in trachea, bladder and fetal lung. Interestingly, CG57466-01 gene expression is much higher in fetal lung (CT=28.3) than in adult lung (CT=32.2), suggesting that expression of this gene can be used to distinguish adult from fetal lung.

[2132] In addition, this gene is expressed at low levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2133] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, heart, fetal liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2135] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3249 This transcript is most highly expressed in a cluster of treated and untreated samples derived from the NCI-H292 cell line, a human airway epithelial cell line that produces mucins (CTs=30-32). Mucus overproduction is an important feature of bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease samples. The transcript is also expressed at lower but still significant levels in small airway epithelium treated with IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha. The expression of the transcript in this mucoepidermoid cell line that is often used as a model for airway epithelium (NCI-H292 cells) suggests that this transcript may be important in the proliferation or activation of airway epithelium. Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded by the transcript may reduce or eliminate symptoms caused by inflammation in lung epithelia in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, allergy, and emphysema.

[2139] CNS_neurodegeneration v1.0 Summary: Ag3250 Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[2140] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3250 Expression of the CG57468-01 gene is highest in normal breast (CT=23.8). In addition, this gene is highly expressed in fetal/adult kidney and fetal/adult liver (CTs=26-27). Thus, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish these tissues from the other samples on this panel. Strikingly, expression of this gene is much lower in breast, kidney, and liver cancer cell lines. Therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product may be of benefit in the treatment of these types of cancers.

In addition, low but significant expression of this gene is detected in a breast cancer cell line and an ovarian cancer cell line. Thus, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish these samples from the other samples on this panel. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may be of benefit in the treatment of fertility, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer.

[2148] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3494 Expression of the CG59609-01 gene is highest in a liver cirrhosis sample (CT=34.3). In addition, low but significant expression of this gene is detected in samples from thymus as well as from normal and IBD colon. Thus, expression of this gene may be used to distinguish these samples from the other samples on this panel. Furthermore, therapies designed with the protein encoded for by this gene may potentially modulate liver function and play a role in the identification and treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases which effect the liver including liver cirrhosis and fibrosis.

[2153] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3496 Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[2154] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3496 Expression of the CG59613-01 gene is highest in fetal and adult kidney (CTs=31). This gene is also expressed at higher levels in fetal lung (CT=31.4) than in adult lung (CT=34.8), suggesting that expression of this gene can be used to distinguish adult and fetal lung and that this gene may play a role in lung development and regeneration. Differentially higher expression in fetal tissues also occurs in brain and skeletal muscle.

[2155] In general, expression of this gene is associated with normal tissues rather than cancer cell lines. Specifically, CG59613-01 gene expression is downregulated in pancreatic, colon, gastric, renal, lung, breast and prostate cancer cell lines when compared to their respective normal tissues. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may be of benefit in the treatment of these cancers.

[2156] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at low levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, fetal skeletal muscle, and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2157] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3496 Expression of the CG59613-01 gene is highest in small airway epithelium treated with TNF alpha and IL-1 beta (CT=29.4). In addition, this gene is substantially upregulated in keratinocytes treated with TNF alpha and IL-1 beta. Low expression of this gene is also seen in lung and dermal fibroblasts independent of treatment. Therefore, therapeutics designed with the protein encoded by the transcript may reduce or eliminate symptoms caused by inflammation of the lung and skin in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, allergy, emphysema, and psoriasis.

[2162] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3498 Expression of this gene is low/undetectable (CTs>35) across all of the samples on this panel (data not shown).

[2163] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3498 The CG59619-01 gene is only expressed at detectable levels in the adult kidney (CT=34.2). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish kidney from the other samples on this panel. In addition, expression of this gene is much lower in fetal kidney (CT=38.7), suggesting that this gene can be used to distinguish between the fetal and adult source of this tissue. Furthermore, this gene is not expressed at detectable levels in renal cancer cell lines. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of this gene may be of use in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma.

[2164] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3498 Expression of the CG59619-01 gene is highest in activated eosinophils (CT=25.7), displaying 10-fold upregulation when compared to the control eosinophils. Therefore, therapies designed with the protein encoded for by this gene could block or inhibit inflammation or tissue damage due to eosinophil activation in response to asthma, ulcerative colitis and parasitic diseases.

[2165] The CG59619-01 gene is expressed at moderate levels in the majority of samples on this panel, including T cells, B cells, endothelial cells, macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, basophils and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2174] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3499 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at moderate levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[2175] Panel 4D Summary: Ag3499 Expression of the CG59625-01 gene is highest in PMA/ionomycin-treated lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cells (CT=24.3). Since these cells are involved in tumor immunology and tumor cell clearance, as well as virally and bacterial infected cells, therapeutic modulation of this gene product may alter the functions of these cells and lead to improvement in cancer cell killing as well as host immunity to microbial and viral infections.

[2176] This gene is also expressed at high levels in stimulated keratinocytes, dendritic cells, monocytes and macrophages, suggesting that small molecule therapeutics designed against the CG59625-01 protein could reduce or inhibit inflammation in asthma, emphysema, allergy, psoriasis, arthritis, or any other condition in which localizalion/activation of these cell types is important.

[2177] This gene is also expressed at moderate levels in a number of other cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease.

[2186] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3622 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59857-01 gene at significant levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[2187] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3622 Two experiments with the same probe and primer set show highest expression of the CG59857-01 gene in spinal cord samples (CTs=26-28). In addition, high levels of expression of this gene are seen in brain derived tissue, including samples from amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and CNS cancer cell lines. Therefore, expression of this gene could be used to distinguish between brain derived samples and other samples used in this panel. Furthermore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheinier's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2188] Significant expression is also detected in fetal skeletal muscle (CTs=27-31). Interestingly, this gene is expressed at much higher levels in fetal when compared to adult skeletal muscle (CTs=32-34). This observation suggests that expression of this gene can be used to distinguish fetal from adult skeletal muscle. In addition, the relative overexpression of this gene in fetal skeletal muscle suggests that the protein product may enhance muscular growth or development in the fetus and thus may also act in a regenerative capacity in the adult. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the protein encoded by this gene could be useful in treatment of muscle related diseases. More specifically, treatment of weak or dystrophic muscle with the protein encoded by this gene could restore muscle mass or function.

[2189] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2190] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3622 Highest expression of the CG59857-01 gene is seen in IL-9/IL-13 treated lung fibroblasts (CT=31). In addition, significant expression is seen in clusters of treated and untreated lung and dermal fibroblasts, epithelium and endothelium. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, and psoriasis.

[2195] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3621 Expression of the CG59855-01 gene is low/undetectable in all samples on this panel (CTs>35). (Data not shown.)

[2196] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3621 Expression of the CG59855-01 gene is restricted to samples from fetal lung and adult pancrease(CTs=34.5-35). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish this sample from other samples in the panel.

[2197] The CG59855-01 gene encodes a homologue of ATP synthase subunit c, mitochondrial precursor. Subunit c is an intrinsic membrane component of ATP synthase, and in mammals it is encoded by two expressed nuclear genes, P1 and P2. Both genes encode the same mature c subunit, but the mitochondrial import pre-sequences in the precursors of subunit c are different (ref. 1). Each ATP synthase complex has multiple copies of subunit C. The mitochondrial ATP synthase uses energy derived from a proton gradient to synthesize ATP. The structure of this complex has been referred to as a ‘lollipop,’ as the soluble F1 catalytic unit is attached to the mitochondrial inner membrane via the F0 unit containing subunit c. F0 subunit C transports protons across the mitochondrial inner membrane to the F1-ATPase (ref. 2).

[2198] Subunit C of the F0 region of the ATP synthase complex of the inner mitochondrial membrane is found in high concentrations in lysosomes in late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (Batten's disease). Kominami et al. (1995, Ref 3) found marked delay of degradation of subunit C in patient fibroblasts with no significant differences between control and patient cells with regard to degradation of cytochrome oxidase subunit IV. Furthermore, accumulation of labeled subunit C in the mitochondrial fraction was detected before Lysosomal appearance of the radiolabeled subunit, suggesting to the authors a specific failure in the degradation of subunit C after its normal inclusion in mitochondria and its consequent accumulation in lysosomes. Jolly (1995, ref 4) reported that subunit C represents more than 50% of the accumulated metabolites in the ovine form of the disease and also accumulates significantly in late infantile and juvenile forms of the human disease and several other animal forms. The author suggested that the extreme hydrophobicity and lipophilicity of subunit C may be in part responsible.

[2203] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3621 Expression of the CG59855-01 gene is exclusively seen in resting monocytes (CT=32). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish this sample from other samples in the panel. In addition, expression of this gene in monocytes suggests a role for the gene product in their function as antigen-presenting cells. This suggests that antibodies or small molecule therapeutics that block the function of this protein nay be useful as anti-inflammatory therapeutics for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases and for the treatment of immunosupressed individuals.

[2208] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3591 Highest expression of the CG59807-01 gene is detected in the gastric cancer cell line (CT=28). In addition, high expression of this gene is seen in samples derived from CNS cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer cell lines (CTs=28-31). Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, through the use of small molecule drugs, protein therapeutics or antibodies, might be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[2209] In addition, expression of this gene is higher in fetal liver (CT=31) as compared to the corresponding adult tissues (CTs=34). Thus, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish between the fetal and adults source of this tissue.

[2210] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2211] This gene is also expressed at high levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2212] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3591 Highest expression of the CG59807-01 gene is detected in treated mucoepidermoid NCI-H292 cells. In addition, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.5 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2218] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3590 This panel confirms the expression of the CG59805-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[2219] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3590 Highest expression of the CG59805-01 gene is detected in one of the breast cancer cell line BT 549 (CT=26). In addition, expression of this gene is high in CNS cancer, gastric cancer, and prostate cancer cell lines. Therefore, expression of this gene can be used to distinguish these samples from other samples in this panel and it can be used as marker for detection of these cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of the protein encoded by this gene may be beneficial in the treatment of these cancers.

[2220] Among tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases. such as obesity and diabetes.

[2221] In addtion, this gene is expressed at high levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression.

[2222] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3590 Highest expression of the CG59805-01 gene is detected in PMA/ionomycin treated Ku-812 (basophil) cells (CT=29). In addition, this gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. These cells include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2233] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3635 This panel confirms the expression of CG59947-01 gene at low levels in the brain in an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. This gene encodes a potassium channel protein homolog. The significant levels of expression in the brain may indicate a role for this protein in signal processing in the central nervous system.

[2236] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3635 Results from one experiment with the CG59947-01 gene are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[2237] Panel 2.2 Summary: Ag3635 Highest expression of the CG59447-01 gene is seen in normal kidney tissue adjacent to a tumor (CT=28). In addition, expression appears to be higher in normal kidney tissue than in the adjacent tumor in six out of nine matched pairs. Conversely expression appears to be higher in breast cancer than in matched normal breast tissue. Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between these samples and other samples on this panel and as a marker for kidney and breast cancers. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this protein may be effective in the treatment of breast and kidney cancer.

[2238] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3635 This gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease, with highest expression in anti CD40 dendritic cells (CT=28.1). Other cells that express this protein include members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

[2239] Panel CNS—1 Summary: Ag3635 Expression in this panel confirms expression of the CG59947-01 gene in the brain. Please see Panel CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 for discussion of utility of this gene in the central nervous system.

[2258] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3647 This panel confirms the expression of this gene at moderate levels in the brains of an independent group of individuals. However, no differential expression of this gene was detected between Alzheimer's diseased postmortem brains and those of non-demented controls in this experiment. Please see Panel 1.4 for a discussion of the potential utility of this gene in treatment of central nervous system disorders.

[2259] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3647 Expression of the CG88613-01 gene is highest in a gastric cancer cell line (CT=28). Expression of this gene appears to be upregulated in a number of cancer cell lines when compared to normal tissues. Specifically, CG88613-01 gene expression is somewhat higher in breast and ovarian cancers when compared to their respective normal tissues. Thus, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene or its protein product, using small molecule drugs, antibodies or protein therapeutics, may be of benefit in the treatment of gastric, breast and ovarian cancer.

[2260] In addition, this gene is expressed at moderate levels in all regions of the central nervous system examined, including amygdala, hippocampus, substantia nigra, thalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, and spinal cord. The CG88613-01 gene encodes a protein that is identical to a protein now known in the public domain as inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate 3-kinase C (ref. 1). Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (ITPK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 to Ins(1,4,5)P4, both of which are modulators of calcium homeostasis. Calcium is one of the most important intracellular messengers in the brain, being essential for neuronal development, synaptic transmission and plasticity, and the regulation of various metabolic pathways (ref. 2). Therefore, this gene may play a role in central nervous system disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and depression. Furthermore, this gene is also expressed in tissues with metabolic or endocrine function, including pancreas, adipose, adrenal gland, thyroid, pituitary gland, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the activity of this gene may prove useful in the treatment of endocrine/metabolically related diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2263] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3647 Results from two experiments using the same probe/primer set are in excellent agreement. Expression of the CG88613-01 gene is highest in keratinocytes treated with the inflammatory cytokines TNF-a and IL-1b(CT=29.5). Therefore, modulation of the expression or activity of this protein through the application of small molecule therapeutics may be useful in the treatment of psoriasis and wound healing.

[2264] This gene is also expressed at moderate levels in small airway epithelial cells, bronchial epithelium, and lung microvascular endothelial cells. Endothelial cells are known to play important roles in inflammatory responses by altering the expression of surface proteins that are involved in activation and recruitment of effector inflammatory cells (ref. 1). Expression in small airway epithelial cells, bronchial epithelium, lung microvascular endothelial cells suggests that the protein encoded by this transcript may be involved in lung disorders including asthma, allergies, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and emphysema. This gene is homologoust o PI-3-kinase which is involved in cell survival and receptor signaling of a number of cells of importance in the immune response in health and disease, including lung pathologies. Therefore, Small molecule antagonists of this gene product may lead to amelioration of symptoms associated with asthma, allergies, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and emphysema.

[2265] This gene is expressed at low levels in the remainder of the samples on this panel, suggesting that the gene product may play an important role in homeostasis of a number of cell types.

[2273] CNS_nturodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3645 While no association between the expression of the CG59993-01 gene and the presence of Alzheimer's disease is detected in this panel, these results confirm the expression of this gene in areas that degenerate in Alzheimer's disease, including the cortex and hippocampus. Synaptotagmin expression is altered in the brain of Alzheimer's patients, possibly explaining impaired synaptogenesis and/or synaptosomal loss secondary to neuronal loss observed in the neurodegenerative disorder. It may also represent, reflect or account for the impaired neuronal transmission in Alzheimer's disease (AD), caused by deterioration of the exocytic machinery. Since the this gene is a homolog of synaptotagmin, agents that potentiate the expression or function of the protein encoded by the this gene may be useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

[2274] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3645 The CG59993-01 gene is a homolog of synaptotagmin, and shows high to moderate expression across all brain regions with highest expression in the cerebellum (CT=26.4) Synaptotagmin is a presynaptic protein involved in synaptic vesicle release, making this an ideal drug target for diseases such as epilepsy, in which reduction of neurotransmission is beneficial. Selective inhibition of this gene or its protein product may therefore be useful in the treatment of seizure disorders. Furthermore, selective inhibition of neural transmission through antagonism of the protein encoded by this gene may show therapeutic benefit in psychiatric diseases where it is believed that inappropriate neural connections have been established, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In addition, antibodies against synaptotagmin may cause Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome. Therefore, peptide fragments of the protein encoded by this gene may serve to block the action of these antibodies and treat Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome.

[2275] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3645 Expression of the CG59993-01 gene is restricted to a sample derived from astrocytes treated with TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta (CT=33.9). This expression in samples related to the central nervous system is consistent with results of the previous panels and suggests that modulation of this protein could be beneficial in the treatment of CNS disease-associated inflammation or neurodegeneration, including mutliple sclerosis.

[2280] CNS_neurodegeneration—1.0 Summary: Ag3644 Expression of the CG59991-01 gene is low/undetectable in all samples on this panel (CTs>35). (Data not shown).

[2281] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3644 Expression of the CG59991-01 gene is restricted to a sample derived from a lung cancer cell line (CT=27.2). Thus, expression of this gene could be used to differentiate between this sample and other samples on this panel and as a marker to detect the presence of lung cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of lung cancer.

[2282] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3644 Expression of the CG59991-01 gene is restricted to samples derived from the basophil cell line KU-812 (CTs=32). Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker of this cell type. Basophils release histamines and other biological modifiers in repose to allergens and play an important role in the pathology of asthma and hypersensitivity reactions. Therefore, the specific pattern of expression of this gene suggests that therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of the protein encoded by this gene may block or inhibit inflammation or tissue damage due to basophil activation in response to asthma, allergies, hypersensitivity reactions, psoriasis, and viral infections.

[2288] CNS_neurodegeneration_v1.0 Summary: Ag3643 Results from one experiment with the CG59987-01 gene are not included. The amp plot indicates that there were experimental difficulties with this run.

[2289] General_screening_panel_v1.4 Summary: Ag3643 Expression of the CG59987-01 gene is highest in a breast cancer cell line (CT=25.3). In addition, significant levels of expression are seen in clusters of cell lines derived from brain, gastric, colon, lung, and ovarian cancers. In addition, expression overall appears to be higher in samples derived from cancer cell lines than in normal tissues. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker to detect the presence of cancer. This gene encodes a homolog of rhophilin, a rho GTPase that is involved in a signaling pathway that regulates cell adhesion, among other functions. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be effective in the treatment of these cancers.

[2290] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, skeletal muscle, and adult and fetal heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2291] This gene is also expressed at moderate to low levels in the CNS and may be a small molecule target for the treatment of neurologic diseases.

[2292] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3643 Expression of the CG59987-01 gene is highest in NCI-H292 cells stimulated by IL-9(CT=29.2). The gene is also expressed in a cluster of treated and untreated NCI-H292 mucoepidermoid cell line samples. The transcript is also expressed at lower but still significant levels in both small airway and bronchial epithelium treated with IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha. In comparison, expression in the normal lung is relatively low. The expression of the transcript in activated normal epithelium as well as a cell line that is often used as a model for airway epithelium (NCI-H292 cells) suggests that this transcript may be important in the proliferation or activation of airway epithelium. Therefore, therapuetics designed with the protein encoded by this transcript could be important in the treatment of diseases which include lung airway inflammation such as asthma and COPD.

Overall, expression of this gene appears to be higher in samples derived from cancer cell lines than in normal tissues. This widespread expression suggests that this gene product is involved in cell growth and prolideration. Thus, expression of this gene could be used as a marker to detect the presence of cancer. Furthermore, therapeutic modulation of the expression or function of this gene may be useful in the treatment of cancer.

[2299] In addition, this gene is expressed at much higher levels in fetal lung and liver (CTs=29-30) when compared to expression in the adult counterpart (CTs=33). Thus, expression of this gene may be used to differentiate between the fetal and adult sources of these tissue.

[2300] Among tissues with metabolic function, this gene is expressed at moderate to low levels in pituitary, adipose, adrenal gland, pancreas, thyroid, and adult and fetal skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. This widespread expression among these tissues suggests that this gene product may play a role in normal neuroendocrine and metabolic and that disregulated expression of this gene may contribute to neuroendocrine disorders or metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.

[2301] This gene is also highly expressed in the brain, with highest expression in the cerebellum (CT=28.5), with moderate expression in other CNS regions as well including, amygdala, hippocampus, cerebral cortex, substantia nigra and thalamus. This gene encodes a leucine-rich repeat protein. Leucine rich repeats (LRR) mediate reversible protein-protein interactions and have diverse cellular functions, including cellular adhesion and signaling. Several of these proteins, such as connectin, slit, chaoptin, and Toll have pivotal roles in neuronal development in Drosophila and may play significant but distinct roles in neural development and in the adult nervous system of humans (Ref. 1). In Drosophilia, the LRR region of axon guidance proteins has been shown to be critical for their function (especially in axon this gene shows high expression in the brain, it is an excellent candidate neuronal guidance protein for axons, dendrites and/or growth cones in general. Therefore, therapeutic modulation of the levels of this protein, or possible signaling via this protein, may be of utility in enhancing/directing compensatory synaptogenesis and fiber growth in the CNS in response to neuronal death (stroke, head trauma), axon lesion (spinal cord injury), or neurodegeneration (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, vascular dementia or any neurodegenerative disease).

[2303] Panel 4.1D Summary: Ag3639 The CG59971-01 gene is expressed at high to moderate levels in a wide range of cell types of significance in the immune response in health and disease. Highest expression of the gene is seen in resting monocytes (CT=28.6). Significant levels of expression are also seen in members of the T-cell, B-cell, endothelial cell, macrophage/monocyte, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell family, as well as epithelial and fibroblast cell types from lung and skin, and normal tissues represented by colon, lung, thymus and kidney. This ubiquitous pattern of expression suggests that this gene product may be involved in homeostatic processes for these and other cell types and tissues. This pattern is in agreement with the expression profile in General_screening_panel_v1.4 and also suggests a role for the gene product in cell survival and proliferation. Therefore, modulation of the gene product with a functional therapeutic may lead to the alteration of functions associated with these cell types and lead to improvement of the symptoms of patients suffering from autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

Identification of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in NOVX Nucleic Acid Sequences

[2304] Variant sequences are also included in this application. A variant sequence can include a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). A SNP can, in some instances, be referred to as a “cSNP” to denote that the nucleotide sequence containing the SNP originates as a cDNA. A SNP can arise in several ways. For example, a SNP may be due to a substitution of one nucleotide for another at the polymorphic site. Such a substitution can be either a transition or a transversion. A SNP can also arise from a deletion of a nucleotide or an insertion of a nucleotide, relative to a reference allele. In this case, the polymorphic site is a site at which one allele bears a gap with respect to a particular nucleotide in another allele. SNPs occurring within genes may result in an alteration of the amino acid encoded by the gene at the position of the SNP. Intragenic SNPs may also be silent, when a codon including a SNP encodes the same amino acid as a result of the redundancy of the genetic code. SNPs occurring outside the region of a gene, or in an intron within a gene, do not result in changes in any amino acid sequence of a protein but may result in altered regulation of the expression pattern. Examples include alteration in temporal expression, physiological response regulation, cell type expression regulation, intensity of expression, and stability of transcribed message.

[2305] SeqCalling assemblies produced by the exon linking process were selected and extended using the following criteria. Genomic clones having regions with 98% identity to all or part of the initial or extended sequence were identified by BLASTN searches using the relevant sequence to query human genomic databases. The genomic clones that resulted were selected for further analysis because this identity indicates that these clones contain the genomic locus for these SeqCalling assemblies. These sequences were analyzed for putative coding regions as well as for similarity to the known DNA and protein sequences. Programs used for these analyses include Grail, Genscan, BLAST, HMMER, FASTA, Hybrid and other relevant programs.

[2306] Some additional genomic regions may have also been identified because selected SeqCalling assemblies map to those regions. Such SeqCalling sequences may have overlapped with regions defined by homology or exon prediction. They may also be included because the location of the fragment was in the vicinity of genomic regions identified by similarity or exon prediction that had been included in the original predicted sequence. The sequence so identified was manually assembled and then may have been extended using one or more additional sequences taken from CuraGen Corporation's human SeqCalling database. SeqCalling fragments suitable for inclusion were identified by the CuraTools™ program SeqExtend or by identifying SeqCalling fragments mapping to the appropriate regions of the genomic clones analyzed.

[2307] The regions defined by the procedures described above were then manually integrated and corrected for apparent inconsistencies that may have arisen, for example, from miscalled bases in the original fragments or from discrepancies between predicted exon junctions, EST locations and regions of sequence similarity, to derive the final sequence disclosed herein. When necessary, the process to identify and analyze SeqCalling assemblies and genomic clones was reiterated to derive the full length sequence (Alderborn et al., Determination of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms by Real-time Pyrophosphate DNA Sequencing. Genome Research. 10 (8) 1249-1265, 2000).
