Title:
46980, A NOVEL HUMAN NEUROLIGIN FAMILY MEMBER AND USES THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001094563
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides isolated nucleic acids molecules, designated 46980 nucleic acid molecules, which encode novel neuroligin members. The invention also provides antisense nucleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vectors containing 46980 nucleic acid molecules, host cells into which the expression vectors have been introduced, and nonhuman transgenic animals in which a 46980 gene has been introduced or disrupted. The invention still further provides isolated 46980 proteins, fusion proteins, antigenic peptides and anti-46980 antibodies. Diagnostic methods utilizing compositions of the invention are also provided.
