Novel full length cDNA

Abstract

Novel full-length cDNAs are provided. 1970 cDNA derived from human have been isolated. The full-length nucleotide sequences of the cDNA and amino acid sequences encoded by the nucleotide sequences have been determined. Because the cDNA of the present invention are full-length and contain the translation start site, they provide information useful for analyzing the functions of the polypeptide.

         2 . A polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide selected from the group consisting of the following (a) to (g): 
 (a) a polynucleotide comprising a protein-coding region of the nucleotide sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 1970:    (b) a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1971 to 3940:    (c) a polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1971 to 3940, wherein in said amino acid sequence, one or more amino acids have been substituted, deleted, inserted and/or added, and wherein said nucleotide sequence encodes a polypeptide functionally equivalent to a polypeptide comprising the selected amino acid sequence;    (d) a polynucleotide hybridizing to a polynucleotide comprising the nucleotide sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 1970, wherein said nucleotide sequence encodes a polypeptide functionally equivalent to a polypeptide encoded by the selected nucleotide sequence;    (e) a polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a partial amino acid sequence of a polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide according to any one of (a) to (d);    (f) a polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence having at least 70% identity to the nucleotide sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 1970; and    (g) a polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence having at least 90% identity to the nucleotide sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 1970, or a partial peptide thereof.
