Abstract

This invention relates to novel human genes, to proteins expressed by the genes, and to variants of the proteins. The invention also relates to diagnostic assays and therapeutic agents related to the genes and proteins, including probes, antisense constructs, and antibodies. The subject nucleic acids have been found to be differentially regulated in tumor cells, particularly in colon cancer tissue.
