| abstract |
Disclosed herein are newly identified polynucleotides, polypeptides encoded by such polynucleotides, the use of such polynucleotides and polypeptides, as well as the production of such polynucleotides and polypeptides. More particularly, the polypeptide is a human protein, which has been putatively identified as a ligand of a parathyroid hormone receptor homolog, hereinafter referred to as PTH2 Receptor. In particular, the invention relates to isolated nucleic acid molecules, such as DNA and RNA encoding a novel human tuberoinfundibular peptide of 39 residues. |
