The invention provides isolated nucleic acids molecules, designated 38618 nucleic acid molecules, which encode a novel α/β hydrolase members. The invention also provides antisense nueleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vector containing 38618 nucleic acid molecules, host cells into which the expression vectors have been introduced, and nonhuman transgenic animals in which a 38618 gene has been introduced or disrupted. The invention still further provides isoated 38618 proteins, fusion proteins, antigenic peptides and anti-38618 antibodies. Diagnostic methods utilizing compositions of the inveniton are also provided. |
