Abstract
The present invention relates to a human cDNA encoding a methionine aminopeptidase type-3 (MetAP-3) protein. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules associated with or derived from this cDNA including complements, homologues and fragments thereof, and methods of using these nucleic acid molecules, to generate, for example, polypeptides and fragments thereof. The invention also provides methods of using the nucleic acids, for example, to produce a protein and fragments thereof and to screen for compounds or compositions that preferentially or specifically effect the activity of a MetAP-3 protein.
