Abstract

The present invention relates to novel human Prt1 (hPrt1) and eIF4G-like (p97) proteins which are involved in eukaryotic transcription. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the human hPrt1 and p97 proteins. hPrt1 and p97 polypeptides are also provided, as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of hPrt1 and p97 activity. Also provided are therapeutic methods for treating disease states associated with the hPrt1 and p97 proteins.
