Abstract

The present invention provides a polynucleotide (ipka) which identifies and encodes a novel human cAMP-dependent protein kinase A inhibitor homolog (IPKA). The invention provides for genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequence encoding IPKA. The invention also provides for the use of purified IPKA and its agonists in the commercial production of recombinant proteins and in pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of diseases associated with the expression of IPKA. Additionally, the invention provides for the use of antisense molecules to ipka in pharmaceutical compositions for treatment of diseases associated with the expression of IPKA. The invention also describes diagnostic assays which utilize diagnostic compositions comprising the polynucleotide, fragments or the complement thereof, which hybridize with the genomic sequence or the transcript of ipka. The present invention also relates to anti-IPKA antibodies which specifically bind to IPKA.
