Lelias, Jean-Michel; Columbus, OH, USA | Summary: | This invention described a method of recombinant DNA encoding of the carboxy terminus of the human HTm4 protein. Disclosed are properties of an isolated recombinant DNA molecule comprising extrachromosomal DNA which encodes a mammalian HTm4 protein, a transformed host cell which has been stably transfected with the DNA molecule, and the recombinant HTm4 protein itself. Also disclosed is a method for detecting the presence of a hereditary atopy. Further provided are therapeutic applications in the treatment of cancer and arthritis. | Abstract: | The invention relates to a recombinant DNA molecule which encodes a HT.sub.m4 protein, a transformed host cell which has been stably transfected with a DNA molecule which encodes a HT.sub.m4 protein and a recombinant HT.sub.m4 protein. The invention also relates to a method for detecting the presence of a hereditary atopy. | US Patent Website: | Click Here for Full Text of Patent | Title Number: | US5972688 | Application Number: | US1997000994578 | Date Filed: | 19/12/1997 | Date Published: | 26/10/1999 | Assignee: | Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA, USA |
