HUMAN TRANSFERASE MOLECULES
TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates to nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of human
transferase molecules
and to the use of these sequences in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention
of cell proliferative
disorders and immune system disorders, and in the assessment of the effects of
exogenous compounds
on the expression of nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of human
transferase molecules.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Transferases are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of molecular groups. The
reaction may
involve an oxidation, reduction, or cleavage of covalent bonds, and is often
specific to a substrate or
to particular sites on a type of substrate. Transferases participate in
reactions essential to such
functions as synthesis and degradation of cell components, regulation of cell
functions including cell
signaling, cell proliferation, infiamation, apoptosis, secretion and
excretion. Transferases are
involved in key steps in disease processes involving these functions.
Transferases are frequently
classified according to the type of group transferred. For example, methyl
transferases transfer one-
carbon methyl groups, amino transferases transfer nitrogenous amino groups,
and similarly
denominated enzymes transfer aldehyde or ketone, acyl, glycosyl, alkyl or
aryl, isoprenyl, saccharyl,
phosphorous-containing, sulfur-containing, or selenium-containing groups, as
well as small enzymatic
groups such as Coenzyme A.
Acyl transferases include peroxisomal carnitine octanoyl transferase, which is
involved in the
fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway, and mitochondria) carnitine palmitoyl
.transferases, involved in fatty
acid metabolism and transport. Choline O-acetyl transferase catalyzes the
biosynthesis of the
neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
Amino transferases play key roles in protein synthesis and degradation, and
they contribute to
other processes as well. For example, the amino transferase 5-aminolevulinic
acid synthase catalyzes
the addition of succinyl-CoA to glycine, the first step in heme biosynthesis.
Other amino transferases
participate in pathways important for neurological function and metabolism.
For example, glutamine-
phenylpyruvate amino transferase, also known as glutamine transaminase K
(GTK), catalyzes several
reactions with a pyridoxal phosphate cofactor. GTK catalyzes the reversible
conversion of L-glutamine
and phenylpyruvate to 2-oxoglutaramate and L-phenylalanine. Other amino acid
substrates for GTK
include L-methionine, L-histidine, and L-tyrosine. GTK also catalyzes the
conversion of kynurenine to
kynurenic acid, a tryptophan metabolite that is an antagonist of the N-methyl-
D-aspartate (NMDA)
receptor in the brain and may exert a neuromodulatory function. Alteration of
the kynurenine metabolic
pathway may be associated with several neurological disorders. GTK also plays
a role in the


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
metabolism of halogenated xenobiotics conjugated to glutathione, leading to
nephrotoxicity in rats and
neurotoxicity in humans. GTK is expressed in kidney, liver, and brain. Both
human and rat GTKs
contain a putative pyridoxal phosphate binding site. (ExPASy ENZYME: EC
2.6.1.64; Perry, S.J. et
al. (1993) Mol. Pharmacol. 43:660-665; Perry, S. et al. (1995) FEBS Lett.
360:277-280; and Alberati-
Giani, D. et al. (1995) J. Neurochem. 64:1448-1455.) A second amino
transferase associated with this
pathway is kynurenine/a-aminoadipate amino transferase (AadAT). AadAT
catalyzes the reversible
conversion of a-aminoadipate and a-ketoglutarate to a-ketoadipate and L-
glutamate during lysine
metabolism. AadAT also catalyzes the transamination of kynurenine to kynurenic
acid. A cytosolic
AadAT is expressed in rat kidney, liver, and brain. (Nakatani, Y. et al.
(1970) Biochim. Biophys. Acta
198:219-228; Buchli, R. et al. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270:29330-29335).
Glycosyl transferases include the mammalian UDP-glucouronosyl transferases, a
family of
membrane-bound microsomal enzymes catalyzing the transfer of glucouronic acid
to lipophilic
substrates in reactions that play important roles in detoxification and
excretion of drugs, carcinogens,
and other foreign substances. Another mammalian glycosyl transferase,
mammalian UDP-galactose-
ceramide galactosyl transferase, catalyzes the transfer of galactose to
ceramide in the synthesis of
galactocerebrosides in myelin membranes of the nervous system. The UDP-
glycosyl transferases share
a conserved signature domain of about 50 amino acid residues (PROSITE:
PDOC00359,
http://expasy.hcuge. ch/sprobprosite.html).
Methyl transferases are involved in a variety of pharmacologically important
processes.
Nicotinamide N-methyl transferase catalyzes the N-methylation of nicotinamides
and other pyridines,
an important step in the cellular handling of drugs and other foreign
compounds. Phenylethanolamine
N-methyl transferase catalyzes the conversion of noradrenalin to adrenalin. 6-
O-methylguanine-DNA
methyl transferase reverses DNA methylation, an important step in
carcinogenesis. Uroporphyrin-III
C-methyl transferase, which catalyzes the transfer of two methyl groups from S-
adenosyl-L-methionine
to uroporphyrinogen III, is the first specific enzyme in the biosynthesis of
cobalamin, a dietary enzyme
whose uptake is deficient in pernicious anemia. Protein-arginine methyl
transferases catalyze the
posttranslational methylation of arginine residues in proteins, resulting in
the mono- and dimethylation
of arginine on the guanidino group. Substrates include histones, myelin basic
protein, and
heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins involved in mRNA processing,
splicing, and transport.
Protein-arginine methyl transferase interacts with proteins upregulated by
mitogens, with proteins
involved in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and with interferon, suggesting an
important role for
methylation in cytokine receptor signaling (Lin, W.-J. et al. (1996) J. Biol.
Chem. 271:15034-15044;
Abramovich, C. et al. (1997) EMBO J. 16:260-266; and Scott, H.S. et al. (1998)
Genomics 48:330-
340.)

WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
Phospho-transferases catalyze the transfer of high-energy phosphate groups and
are important
in energy-requiring and -releasing reactions. The metabolic enzyme creatine
kinase catalyzes the
reversible phosphate transfer between creatine/creatine phosphate and ATP/ADP.
Glycocyamine
kinase catalyzes phosphate transfer from ATP to guanidoacetate, and arginine
kinase catalyzes
phosphate transfer from ATP to argenine. A cysteine-containing active site is
conserved in this family
(PROSITE: PDOC00103).
Prenyl transferases are heterodimers, consisting of an alpha and a beta
subunit, that catalyze
the transfer of an isoprenyl group. An example of a prenyl transferase is the
mammalian protein
farnesyl transferase. The alpha subunit of farnesyl transferase consists of 5
repeats of 34 amino acids
each, with each repeat containing an invariant tryptophan (PROSITE:
PDOC00703).
Saccharyl transferases are glycating enzymes involved in a variety of
metabolic processes.
Oligosacchryl transferase-48, for example, is a receptor for advanced
glycation endproducts.
Accumulation of these endproducts is observed in vascular complications of
diabetes, macrovascular
disease, renal insufficiency, and Alzheimer's disease (Thornalley, P.J. (1998)
Cell Mol. Biol. (Noisy-
Le-Grand) 44:1013-1023).
Coenzyme A (CoA) transferase catalyzes the transfer of CoA between two
carboxylic acids.
Succinyl CoA:3-oxoacid CoA transferase, for example, transfers CoA from
succinyl-CoA to a recipient
such as acetoacetate. Acetoacetate is essential to the metabolism of ketone
bodies, which accumulate in
tissues affected by metabolic disorders such as diabetes (PROSITE: PDOC00980).
The discovery of new human transferase molecules and the polynucleotides
encoding them
satisfies a need in the art by providing new compositions which are useful in
the diagnosis, prevention,
and treatment of cell proliferative disorders and immune system disorders, and
in the assessment of the
effects of exogenous compounds on the expression of nucleic acid and amino
acid sequences of human
transferase molecules.

DEFINITIONS
"HTFS" refers to the amino acid sequences of substantially purified HTFS
obtained from any
species, particularly a mammalian species, including bovine, ovine, porcine,
murine, equine, and
human, and from any source, whether natural, synthetic, semi-synthetic, or
recombinant.
The term "agonist" refers to a molecule which intensifies or mimics the
biological activity of
HTFS. Agonists may include proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, small
molecules, or any other
compound or composition which modulates the activity of HTFS either by
directly interacting with
HTFS or by acting on components of the biological pathway in which HTFS
participates.
An "allelic variant" is an alternative form of the gene encoding HTFS. Allelic
variants may
result from at least one mutation in the nucleic acid sequence and may result
in altered mRNAs or in
polypeptides whose structure or function may or may not be altered. A gene may
have none, one, or
many allelic variants of its naturally occurring form. Common mutational
changes which give rise to
allelic variants are generally ascribed to natural deletions, additions, or
substitutions of nucleotides.
Each of these types of changes may occur alone, or in combination with the
others, one or more times in
9


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
a given sequence.
"Altered" nucleic acid sequences encoding HTFS include those sequences with
deletions,
insertions, or substitutions of different nucleotides, resulting in a
polypeptide the same as HTFS or a
polypeptide with at least one functional characteristic of HTFS. Included
within this definition are
polymorphisms which may or may not be readily detectable using a particular
oligonucleotide probe of
the polynucleotide encoding HTFS, and improper or unexpected hybridization to
allelic variants, with a
locus other than the normal chromosomal locus for the polynucleotide sequence
encoding HTFS. The
encoded protein may also be "altered," and may contain deletions, insertions,
or substitutions of amino
acid residues which produce a silent change and result in a functionally
equivalent HTFS. Deliberate
amino acid substitutions may be made on the basis of similarity in polarity,
charge, solubility,
hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, and/or the amphipathic nature of the residues,
as long as the biological
or immunological activity of HTFS is retained. For example, negatively charged
amino acids may
include aspartic acid and glutamic acid, and positively charged amino acids
may include lysine and
arginine. Amino acids with uncharged polar side chains having similar
hydrophilicity values may
include: asparagine and glutamine; and serine and threonine. Amino acids with
uncharged side chains
having similar hydrophilicity values may include: leucine, isoleucine, and
valine; glycine and alanine;
and phenylalanine and tyrosine.
The terms "amino acid" and "amino acid sequence" refer to an oligopeptide,
peptide,
polypeptide, or protein sequence, or a fragment of any of these, and to
naturally occurring or synthetic
molecules. Where "amino acid sequence" is recited to refer to a sequence of a
naturally occurring
protein molecule, "amino acid sequence" and like terms are not meant to limit
the amino acid sequence
to the complete native amino acid sequence associated with the recited protein
molecule.
"Amplification" relates to the production of additional copies of a nucleic
acid sequence.
Amplification is generally carried out using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
technologies well known
in the art.
The term "antagonist" refers to a molecule which inhibits or attenuates the
biological activity of
HTFS. Antagonists may include proteins such as antibodies, nucleic acids,
carbohydrates, small
molecules, or any other compound or composition which modulates the activity
of HTFS either by
directly interacting with HTFS or by acting on components of the biological
pathway in which HTFS
participates.
The term "antibody" refers to intact immunoglobulin molecules as well as to
fragments thereof,
such as Fab, F(ab')2, and Fv fragments, which are capable of binding an
epitopic determinant.
Antibodies that bind HTFS polypeptides can be prepared using intact
polypeptides or using fragments
containing small peptides of interest as the immunizing antigen. The
polypeptide or oligopeptide used
to immunize an animal (e.g., a mouse, a rat, or a rabbit) can be derived from
the translation of RNA, or


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
synthesized chemically, and can be conjugated to a carrier protein if desired.
Commonly used carriers
that are chemically coupled to peptides include bovine serum albumin,
thyroglobulin, and keyhole
limpet hemocyanin (KLH). The coupled peptide is then used to immunize the
animal.
The term "antigenic determinant" refers to that region of a molecule (i.e., an
epitope) that
makes contact with a particular antibody. When a protein or a fragment of a
protein is used to
immunize a host animal, numerous regions of the protein may induce the
production of antibodies which
bind specifically to antigenic determinants (particular regions or three-
dimensional structures on the
protein). An antigenic determinant may compete with the intact antigen (i.e.,
the immunogen used to
elicit the immune response) for binding to an antibody.
The term "antisense" refers to any composition capable of base-pairing with
the "sense"
(coding) strand of a specific nucleic acid sequence. Antisense compositions
may include DNA; RNA;
peptide nucleic acid (PNA); oligonucleotides having modified backbone linkages
such as
phosphorothioates, methylphosphonates, or benzylphosphonates; oligonucleotides
having modified
sugar groups such as 2'-methoxyethyl sugars or 2'-methoxyethoxy sugars; or
oligonucleotides having
modified bases such as 5-methyl cytosine, 2'-deoxyuracil, or 7-deaza-2'-
deoxyguanosine. Antisense
molecules may be produced by any method including chemical synthesis or
transcription. Once
introduced into a cell, the complementary antisense molecule base-pairs with a
naturally occurring
nucleic acid sequence produced by the cell to form duplexes which block either
transcription or
translation. The designation "negative" or "minus" can refer to the antisense
strand, and the
designation "positive" or "plus" can refer to the sense strand of a reference
DNA molecule.
The term "biologically active" refers to a protein having structural,
regulatory, or biochemical
functions of a naturally occurring molecule. Likewise, "immunologically
active" or "immunogenic"
refers to the capability of the natural, recombinant, or synthetic HTFS, or of
any oligopeptide thereof,
to induce a specific immune response in appropriate animals or cells and to
bind with specific
antibodies.
"Complementary" describes the relationship between two single-stranded nucleic
acid
sequences that anneal by base-pairing. For example, 5'-AGT-3' pairs with its
complement,
3'-TCA-5'.
A "composition comprising a given polynucleotide sequence" and a "composition
comprising a
given amino acid sequence" refer broadly to any composition containing the
given polynucleotide or
amino acid sequence. The composition may comprise a dry formulation or an
aqueous solution.
Compositions comprising polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS or fragments of
HTFS may be
employed as hybridization probes. The probes may be stored in freeze-dried
form and may be
associated with a stabilizing agent such as a carbohydrate. In hybridizations,
the probe may be
11


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
deployed in an aqueous solution containing salts (e.g., NaCl), detergents
(e.g., sodium dodecyl sulfate;
SDS), and other components (e.g., Denhardt's solution, dry milk, salmon sperm
DNA, etc.).
"Consensus sequence" refers to a nucleic acid sequence which has been
subjected to repeated
DNA sequence analysis to resolve uncalled bases, extended using the XL-PCR kit
(PE Biosystems,
Foster City CA) in the 5' and/or the 3' direction, and resequenced, or which
has been assembled from
one or more overlapping cDNA, EST, or genomic DNA fragments using a computer
program for
fragment assembly, such as the GELVIEW fragment assembly system (GCG, Madison
WI) or Phrap
(University of Washington, Seattle WA). Some sequences have been both extended
and assembled to
produce the consensus sequence.
"Conservative amino acid substitutions" are those substitutions that are
predicted to least
interfere with the properties of the original protein, i.e., the structure and
especially the function of the
protein is conserved and not significantly changed by such substitutions. The
table below shows amino
acids which may be substituted for an original amino acid in a protein and
which are regarded as
conservative amino acid substitutions.

Conservative amino acid substitutions generally maintain (a) the structure of
the polypeptide
backbone in the area of the substitution, for example, as a beta sheet or
alpha helical conformation,
(b) the charge or hydrophobicity of the molecule at the site of the
substitution, and/or (c) the bulk of the
side chain.
A "deletion" refers to a change in the amino acid or nucleotide sequence that
results in the
absence of one or more amino acid residues or nucleotides.

CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
The term "derivative" refers to a chemically modified polynucleotide or
polypeptide. Chemical
modifications of a polynucleotide sequence can include, for example,
replacement of hydrogen by an
alkyl, acyl, hydroxyl, or amino group. A derivative polynucleotide encodes a
polypeptide which retains
at least one biological or immunological function of the natural molecule. A
derivative polypeptide is
S one modified by glycosylation, pegylation, or any similar process that
retains at least one biological or
immunological function of the polypeptide from which it was derived.
A "detectable label" refers to a reporter molecule or enzyme that is capable
of generating a
measurable signal and is covalently or noncovalently joined to a
polynucleotide or polypeptide.
A "fragment" is a unique portion of HTFS or the polynucleotide encoding HTFS
which is
identical in sequence to but shorter in length than the parent sequence. A
fragment may comprise up
to the entire length of the defined sequence, minus one nucleotide/amino acid
residue. For example, a
fragment may comprise from 5 to 1000 contiguous nucleotides or amino acid
residues. A fragment
used as a probe, primer, antigen, therapeutic molecule, or for other purposes,
may be at least 5, 10,
15, 16, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75, 100, 150, 250 or at least 500 contiguous
nucleotides or amino acid
residues in length. Fragments may be preferentially selected from certain
regions of a molecule. For
example, a polypeptide fragment may comprise a certain length of contiguous
amino acids selected
from the first 250 or 500 amino acids (or first 25% or 50% of a polypeptide)
as shown in a certain
defined sequence. Clearly these lengths are exemplary, and any length that is
supported by the
specification, including the Sequence Listing, tables, and figures, may be
encompassed by the present
embodiments.
A fragment of SEQ ID N0:43-84 comprises a region of unique polynucleotide
sequence that
specifically identifies SEQ ID N0:43-84, for example, as distinct from any
other sequence in the
genome from which the fragment was obtained. A fragment of SEQ ID N0:43-84 is
useful, for
example, in hybridization and amplification technologies and in analogous
methods that distinguish
SEQ ID N0:43-84 from related polynucleotide sequences. The precise length of a
fragment of SEQ
ID N0:43-84 and the region of SEQ ID N0:43-84 to which the fragment
corresponds are routinely
determinable by one of ordinary skill in the art based on the intended purpose
for the fragment.
A fragment of SEQ ID NO:1-42 is encoded by a fragment of SEQ ID N0:43-84. A
fragment
of SEQ ID NO:1-42 comprises a region of unique amino acid sequence that
specifically identifies
SEQ ID NO:1-42. For example, a fragment of SEQ ID NO:1-42 is useful as an
immunogenic peptide
for the development of antibodies that specifically recognize SEQ ID NO:1-42.
The precise length of
a fragment of SEQ ID N0:1-42 and the region of SEQ ID N0:1-42 to which the
fragment
corresponds are routinely determinable by one of ordinary skill in the art
based on the intended
purpose for the fragment.
A "full-length" polynucleotide sequence is one containing at least a
translation initiation codon
13


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
(e.g., methionine) followed by an open reading frame and a translation
termination codon. A "full-
length" polynucleotide sequence encodes a "full-length" polypeptide sequence.
"Homology" refers to sequence similarity or, interchangeably, sequence
identity, between two
or more polynucleotide sequences or two or more polypeptide sequences.
The terms "percent identity" and "% identity," as applied to polynucleotide
sequences, refer to
the percentage of residue matches between at least two polynucleotide
sequences aligned using a
standardized algorithm. Such an algorithm may insert, in a standardized and
reproducible way, gaps in
the sequences being compared in order to optimize alignment between two
sequences, and therefore
achieve a more meaningful comparison of the two sequences.
Percent identity between polynucleotide sequences may be determined using the
default
parameters of the CLUSTAL V algorithm as incorporated into the MEGALIGN
version 3.12e sequence
alignment program. This program is part of the LASERGENE software package, a
suite of molecular
biological analysis programs (DNASTAR, Madison WI). CLUSTAL V is described in
Higgins, D.G.
and P.M. Sharp (1989) CABIOS 5:151-153 and in Higgins, D.G. et al. (1992)
CABIOS 8:189-191.
For pairwise alignments of polynucleotide sequences, the default parameters
are set as follows:
Ktuple=2, gap penalty=5, window=4, and "diagonals saved"=4. The "weighted"
residue weight table is
selected as the default. Percent identity is reported by CLUSTAL V as the
"percent similarity" between
aligned polynucleotide sequences.
Alternatively, a suite of commonly used and freely available sequence
comparison algorithms is
provided by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBn Basic
Local Alignment Search
Tool (BLAST) (Altschul, S.F. et al. (1990) J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-410), which
is available from several
sources, including the NCBI, Bethesda, MD, and on the Internet at
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/. The BLAST software suite includes various
sequence analysis
programs including "blastn," that is used to align a known polynucleotide
sequence with other
polynucleotide sequences from a variety of databases. Also available is a tool
called "BLAST 2
Sequences" that is used for direct pairwise comparison of two nucleotide
sequences. "BLAST 2
Sequences" can be accessed and used interactively at
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gorf/bl2.html. The
"BLAST 2 Sequences" tool can be used for both blastn and blastp (discussed
below). BLAST
programs are commonly used with gap and other parameters set to default
settings. For example, to
compare two nucleotide sequences, one may use blastn with the "BLAST 2
Sequences" tool Version
2Ø12 (April-21-2000) set at default parameters. Such default parameters may
be, for example:
Matrix: BLOSUM62
Reward for match: 1
Penalty for mismatch: -2

Percent identity may be measured over the length of an entire defined
sequence, for example, as
defined by a particular SEQ ID number, or may be measured over a shorter
length, for example, over
the length of a fragment taken from a larger, defined sequence, for instance,
a fragment of at least 20, at
least 30, at least 40, at least 50, at least 70, at least 100, or at least 200
contiguous nucleotides. Such
lengths are exemplary only, and it is understood that any fragment length
supported by the sequences
shown herein, in the tables, figures, or Sequence Listing, may be used to
describe a length over which
percentage identity may be measured.
Nucleic acid sequences that do not show a high degree of identity may
nevertheless encode
similar amino acid sequences due to the degeneracy of the genetic code. It is
understood that changes in
a nucleic acid sequence can be made using this degeneracy to produce multiple
nucleic acid sequences
that all encode substantially the same protein.
The phrases "percent identity" and "% identity," as applied to polypeptide
sequences, refer to
the percentage of residue matches between at least two polypeptide sequences
aligned using a
standardized algorithm. Methods of polypeptide sequence alignment are well-
known. Some alignment
methods take into account conservative amino acid substitutions. Such
conservative substitutions,
explained in more detail above, generally preserve the charge and
hydrophobicity at the site of
substitution, thus preserving the structure (and therefore function) of the
polypeptide.
Percent identity between polypeptide sequences may be determined using the
default parameters
of the CLUSTAL V algorithm as incorporated into the MEGALIGN version 3.12e
sequence alignment
program (described and referenced above). For pairwise alignments of
polypeptide sequences using
CLUSTAL V, the default parameters are set as follows: Ktuple=1, gap penalty=3,
window=5, and
"diagonals saved"=5. The PAM250 matrix is selected as the default residue
weight table. As with
polynucleotide alignments, the percent identity is reported by CLUSTAL V as
the "percent similarity"
between aligned polypeptide sequence pairs.
Alternatively the NCBI BLAST software suite may be used. For example, for a
pairwise
comparison of two polypeptide sequences, one may use the "BLAST 2 Sequences"
tool Version 2Ø12
(Apr-21-2000) with blastp set at default parameters. Such default parameters
may be, for example:
Matrix: BLOSUM62
Open Gap: 1l and Extension Gap: 1 penalties

Percent identity may be measured over the length of an entire defined
polypeptide sequence, for
example, as defined by a particular SEQ ID number, or may be measured over a
shorter length, for
example, over the length of a fragment taken from a larger, defined
polypeptide sequence, for instance,
a fragment of at least 15, at least 20, at least 30, at least 40, at least 50,
at least 70 or at least 150
contiguous residues. Such lengths are exemplary only, and it is understood
that any fragment length
supported by the sequences shown herein, in the tables, figures or Sequence

describe a length over which percentage identity may be measured.
"Human artificial chromosomes" (HACs) are linear microchromosomes which may
contain
DNA sequences of about 6 kb to 10 Mb in size, and which contain all of the
elements required for
chromosome replication, segregation and maintenance.
The term "humanized antibody" refers to an antibody molecule in which the
amino acid
sequence in the non-antigen binding regions has been altered so that the
antibody more closely
resembles a human antibody, and still retains its original binding ability.
"Hybridization" refers to the process by which a polynucleotide strand anneals
with a
complementary strand through base pairing under defined hybridization
conditions. Specific
hybridization is an indication that two nucleic acid sequences share a high
degree of complementarity.
Specific hybridization complexes form under permissive annealing conditions
and remain hybridized
after the "washing" step(s). The washing steps) is particularly important in
determining the stringency
of the hybridization process, with more stringent conditions allowing less non-
specific binding, i.e.,
binding between pairs of nucleic acid strands that are not perfectly matched.
Permissive conditions for
annealing of nucleic acid sequences are routinely determinable by one of
ordinary skill in the art and
may be consistent among hybridization experiments, whereas wash conditions may
be varied among
experiments to achieve the desired stringency, and therefore hybridization
specificity. Permissive
annealing conditions occur, for example, at 68°C in the presence of
about 6 x SSC, about 1 % (w/v)
SDS, and about 100 ~g/ml sheared, denatured salmon sperm DNA.
Generally, stringency of hybridization is expressed, in part, with reference
to the temperature
under which the wash step is carried out. Such wash temperatures are typically
selected to be about
5°C to 20°C lower than the thermal melting point (T"~ for the
specific sequence at a defined ionic
strength and pH. The Tm is the temperature (under defined ionic strength and
pH) at which 50% of the
target sequence hybridizes to a perfectly matched probe. An equation for
calculating Tm and conditions

for nucleic acid hybridization are well known and can be found in Sambrook, J.
et al., 1989, Molecular
Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 2"a ed., vol. 1-3, Cold Spring Harbor Press,
Plainview NY; specifically
see volume 2, chapter 9.
High stringency conditions for hybridization between polynucleotides of the
present invention
include wash conditions of 68°C in the presence of about 0.2 x SSC and
about 0.1 % SDS, for 1 hour.
Alternatively, temperatures of about 65°C, 60°C, 55°C, or
42°C may be used. SSC concentration may
be varied from about 0.1 to 2 x SSC, with SDS being present at about 0.1 %.
Typically, blocking
reagents are used to block non-specific hybridization. Such blocking reagents
include, for instance,
sheared and denatured salmon sperm DNA at about 100-200 ~g/ml. Organic
solvent, such as
formamide at a concentration of about 35-50% v/v, may also be used under
particular circumstances,
such as for RNA:DNA hybridizations. Useful variations on these wash conditions
will be readily
apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. Hybridization, particularly
under high stringency
conditions, may be suggestive of evolutionary similarity between the
nucleotides. Such similarity is
strongly indicative of a similar role for the nucleotides and their encoded
polypeptides.
The term "hybridization complex" refers to a complex formed between two
nucleic acid
sequences by virtue of the formation of hydrogen bonds between complementary
bases. A hybridization
complex may be formed in solution (e.g., Cot or Rot analysis) or formed
between one nucleic acid
sequence present in solution and another nucleic acid sequence immobilized on
a solid support (e.g.,
paper, membranes, filters, chips, pins or glass slides, or any other
appropriate substrate to which cells
or their nucleic acids have been fixed).
The words "insertion" and "addition" refer to changes in an amino acid or
nucleotide sequence
resulting in the addition of one or more amino acid residues or nucleotides,
respectively.
"Immune response" can refer to conditions associated with inflammation,
trauma, immune
disorders, or infectious or genetic disease, etc. These conditions can be
characterized by expression of
various factors, e.g., cytokines, chemokines, and other signaling molecules,
which may affect cellular
and systemic defense systems.
An "immunogenic fragment" is a polypeptide or oligopeptide fragment of HTFS
which is
capable of eliciting an immune response when introduced into a living
organism, for example, a
mammal. The term "immunogenic fragment" also includes any polypeptide or
oligopeptide fragment of
HTFS which is useful in any of the antibody production methods disclosed
herein or known in the art.
The term "microarray" refers to an arrangement of a plurality of
polynucleotides, polypeptides,
or other chemical compounds on a substrate.
The terms "element" and "array element" refer to a polynucleotide,
polypeptide, or other
chemical compound having a unique and defined position on a microarray.

The term "modulate" refers to a change in the activity of HTFS. For example,
modulation may
cause an increase or a decrease in protein activity, binding characteristics,
or any other biological,
functional, or immunological properties of HTFS.
The phrases "nucleic acid" and "nucleic acid sequence" refer to a nucleotide,
oligonucleotide,
polynucleotide, or any fragment thereof. These phrases also refer to DNA or
RNA of genomic or
synthetic origin which may be single-stranded or double-stranded and may
represent the sense or the
antisense strand, to peptide nucleic acid (PNA), or to any DNA-like or RNA-
like material.
"Operably linked" refers to the situation in which a first nucleic acid
sequence is placed in a
functional relationship with a second nucleic acid sequence. For instance, a
promoter is operably
linked to a coding sequence if the promoter affects the transcription or
expression of the coding
sequence. Operably linked DNA sequences may be in close proximity or
contiguous and, where
necessary to join two protein coding regions, in the same reading frame.
"Peptide nucleic acid" (PNA) refers to an antisense molecule or anti-gene
agent which
comprises an oligonucleotide of at least about 5 nucleotides in length linked
to a peptide backbone of
amino acid residues ending in lysine. The terminal lysine confers solubility
to the composition. PNAs
preferentially bind complementary single stranded DNA or RNA and stop
transcript elongation, and
may be pegylated to extend their lifespan in the cell.
"Post-translational modification" of an HTFS may involve lipidation,
glycosylation,
phosphorylation, acetylation, racemization, proteolykic cleavage, and other
modifications known in the
art. These processes may occur synthetically or biochemically. Biochemical
modifications will vary by
cell type depending on the enzymatic milieu of HTFS.
"Probe" refers to nucleic acid sequences encoding HTFS, their complements, or
fragments
thereof, which are used to detect identical, allelic or related nucleic acid
sequences. Probes are
isolated oligonucleotides or polynucleotides attached to a detectable label or
reporter molecule. Typical
labels include radioactive isotopes, ligands, chemiluminescent agents, and
enzymes. "Primers" are
short nucleic acids, usually DNA oligonucleotides, which may be annealed to a
target polynucleotide by
complementary base-pairing. The primer may then be extended along the target
DNA strand by a DNA
polymerase enzyme. Primer pairs can be used for amplification (and
identification) of a nucleic acid
sequence, e.g., by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Probes and primers as used in the present invention typically comprise at
least 15 contiguous
nucleotides of a known sequence. In order to enhance specificity, longer
probes and primers may also
be employed, such as probes and primers that comprise at least 20, 25, 30, 40,
50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100,
or at least 150 consecutive nucleotides of the disclosed nucleic acid
sequences. Probes and primers may
be considerably longer than these examples, and it is understood that any
length supported by the
specification, including the tables, figures, and Sequence Listing, may be
used.

Methods for preparing and using probes and primers are described in the
references, for
example Sambrook, J. et al. (1989) Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 2"d
ed., vol. 1-3, Cold
Spring Harbor Press, Plainview NY; Ausubel, F.M. et al. (1987) Current

al. (1990) PCR
Protocols. A Guide to Methods and Applications, Academic Press, San Diego CA.
PCR primer pairs
can be derived from a known sequence, for example, by using computer programs
intended for that
purpose such as Primer (Version 0.5, 1991, Whitehead Institute for Biomedical
Research, Cambridge
MA).
Oligonucleotides for use as primers are selected using software known in the
art for such
purpose. For example, OLIGO 4.06 software is useful for the selection of PCR
primer pairs of up to
100 nucleotides each, and for the analysis of oligonucleotides and larger
polynucleotides of up to 5,000
nucleotides from an input polynucleotide sequence of up to 32 kilobases.
Similar primer selection
programs have incorporated additional features for expanded capabilities. For
example, the PrimOU
primer selection program (available to the public from the Genome Center at
University of Texas South
West Medical Center, Dallas TX) is capable of choosing specific primers from
megabase sequences
and is thus useful for designing primers on a genome-wide scope. The Primer3
primer selection
program (available to the public from the Whitehead InstitutelMIT Center for
Genome Research,
Cambridge MA) allows the user to input a "mispriming library," in which
sequences to avoid as primer
binding sites are user-specified. Primer3 is useful, in particular, for the
selection of oligonucleotides for
microarrays. (The source code for the latter two primer selection programs may
also be obtained from
their respective sources and modified to meet the user's specific needs.) The
PrimeGen program
(available to the public from the UK Human Genome Mapping Project Resource
Centre, Cambridge
UK) designs primers based on multiple sequence alignments, thereby allowing
selection of primers that
hybridize to either the most conserved or least conserved regions of aligned
nucleic acid sequences.
Hence, this program is useful for identification of both unique and conserved
oligonucleotides and
polynucleotide fragments. The oligonucleotides and polynucleotide fragments
identified by any of the
above selection methods are useful in hybridization technologies, for example,
as PCR or sequencing
primers, microarray elements, or specific probes to identify fully or
partially complementary
polynucleotides in a sample of nucleic acids. Methods of oligonucleotide
selection are not limited to
those described above.
A "recombinant nucleic acid" is a sequence that is not naturally occurring or
has a sequence
that is made by an artificial combination of two or more otherwise separated
segments of sequence.
This artificial combination is often accomplished by chemical synthesis or,
more commonly, by the
artificial manipulation of isolated segments of nucleic acids, e.g., by
genetic engineering techniques
19


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
such as those described in Sambrook, supra. The term recombinant includes
nucleic acids that have
been altered solely by addition, substitution, or deletion of a portion of the
nucleic acid. Frequently, a
recombinant nucleic acid may include a nucleic acid sequence operably linked
to a promoter sequence.
Such a recombinant nucleic acid may be part of a vector that is used, for
example, to transform a cell.
Alternatively, such recombinant nucleic acids may be part of a viral vector,
e.g., based on a
vaccinia virus, that could be use to vaccinate a mammal wherein the
recombinant nucleic acid is
expressed, inducing a protective immunological response in the mammal.
A "regulatory element" refers to a nucleic acid sequence usually derived from
untranslated
regions of a gene and includes enhancers, promoters, introns, and 5' and 3'
untranslated regions (UTRs).
Regulatory elements interact with host or viral proteins which control
transcription, translation, or RNA
stability.
"Reporter molecules" are chemical or biochemical moieties used for labeling a
nucleic acid,
amino acid, or antibody. Reporter molecules include radionuclides; enzymes;
fluorescent,
chemiluminescent, or chromogenic agents; substrates; cofactors; inhibitors;
magnetic particles; and
other moieties known in the art.
An "RNA equivalent," in reference to a DNA sequence, is composed of the same
linear
sequence of nucleotides as the reference DNA sequence with the exception that
all occurrences of the
nitrogenous base thymine are replaced with uracil, and the sugar backbone is
composed of ribose
instead of deoxyribose.
The term "sample" is used in its broadest sense. A sample suspected of
containing nucleic
acids encoding HTFS, or fragments thereof, or HTFS itself, may comprise a
bodily fluid; an extract
from a cell, chromosome, organelle, or membrane isolated from a cell; a cell;
genomic DNA, RNA, or
cDNA, in solution or bound to a substrate; a tissue; a tissue print; etc.
The terms "specific binding" and "specifically binding" refer to that
interaction between a
protein or peptide and an agonist, an antibody, an antagonist, a small
molecule, or any natural or
synthetic binding composition. The interaction is dependent upon the presence
of a particular structure
of the protein, e.g., the antigenic determinant or epitope, recognized by the
binding molecule. For
example, if an antibody is specific for epitope "A," the presence of a
polypeptide comprising the epitope
A, or the presence of free unlabeled A, in a reaction containing free labeled
A and the antibody will
reduce the amount of labeled A that binds to the antibody.
The term "substantially purified" refers to nucleic acid or amino acid
sequences that are
removed from their natural environment and are isolated or separated, and are
at least 60% free,
preferably at least 75 % free, and most preferably at least 90% free from
other components with which
they are naturally associated.


CA 02387785 2002-04-17

A "substitution" refers to the replacement of one or more amino acid residues
or nucleotides by
different amino acid residues or nucleotides, respectively.
"Substrate" refers to any suitable rigid or semi-rigid support including
membranes, filters,
chips, slides, wafers, fibers, magnetic or nonmagnetic beads, gels, tubing,
plates, polymers,
microparticles and capillaries. The substrate can have a variety of surface
forms, such as wells,
trenches, pins, channels and pores, to which polynucleotides or polypeptides
are bound.
A "transcript image" refers to the collective pattern of gene expression by a
particular cell type
or tissue under given conditions at a given time.
"Transformation" describes a process by which exogenous DNA is introduced into
a recipient
cell. Transformation may occur under natural or artificial conditions
according to various methods well
known in the art, and may rely on any known method for the insertion of
foreign nucleic acid sequences
into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic host cell. The method for transformation is
selected based on the type
of host cell being transformed and may include, but is not limited to,
bacteriophage or viral infection,
electroporation, heat shock, lipofection, and particle bombardment. The term
"transformed" cells
includes stably transformed cells in which the inserted DNA is capable of
replication either as an
autonomously replicating plasmid or as part of the host chromosome, as well as
transiently transformed
cells which express the inserted DNA or RNA for limited periods of time.
A "transgenic organism," as used herein, is any organism, including but not
limited to
animals and plants, in which one or more of the cells of the organism contains
heterologous nucleic
acid introduced by way of human intervention, such as by transgenic techniques
well known in the
art. The nucleic acid is introduced into the cell, directly or indirectly by
introduction into a precursor
of the cell, by way of deliberate genetic manipulation, such as by
microinjection or by infection with
a recombinant virus. The term genetic manipulation does not include classical
cross-breeding, or in
vitro fertilization, but rather is directed to the introduction of a
recombinant DNA molecule. The
transgenic organisms contemplated in accordance with the present invention
include bacteria,
cyanobacteria, fungi, plants, and animals. The isolated DNA of the present
invention can be
introduced into the host by methods known in the art, for example infection,
transfection,
transformation or transconjugation. Techniques for transferring the DNA of the
present invention
into such organisms are widely known and provided in references such as
Sambrook, J. et al. (1989),
su ra.
A "variant" of a particular nucleic acid sequence is defined as a nucleic acid
sequence having at
least 40% sequence identity to the particular nucleic acid sequence over a
certain length of one of the
nucleic acid sequences using blastn with the "BLAST 2 Sequences" tool Version
2Ø9 (May-07-1999)
set at default parameters. Such a pair of nucleic acids may show, for example,
at least 50%, at least
60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95% or
at least 98% or greater
21


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
sequence identity over a certain defined length. A variant may be described
as, for example, an "allelic"
(as defined above), "splice," "species," or "polymorphic" variant. A splice
variant may have significant
identity to a reference molecule, but will generally have a greater or lesser
number of polynucleotides
due to alternative splicing of exons during mRNA processing. The corresponding
polypeptide may
possess additional functional domains or lack domains that are present in the
reference molecule.
Species variants are polynucleotide sequences that vary from one species to
another. The resulting
polypeptides generally will have significant amino acid identity relative to
each other. A polymorphic
variant is a variation in the polynucleotide sequence of a particular gene
between individuals of a given
species. Polymorphic variants also may encompass "single nucleotide
polymorphisms" (SNPs) in
which the polynucleotide sequence varies by one nucleotide base. The presence
of SNPs may be
indicative of, for example, a certain population, a disease state, or a
propensity for a disease state.
A "variant" of a particular polypeptide sequence is defined as a polypeptide
sequence having at
least 40% sequence identity to the particular polypeptide sequence over a
certain length of one of the
polypeptide sequences using blastp with the "BLAST 2 Sequences" tool Version
2Ø9 (May-07-1999)
set at default parameters. Such a pair of polypeptides may show, for example,
at least 50%, at least
60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%o, at least 95%, or at least 98%
or greater sequence
identity over a certain defined length of one of the polypeptides.
THE INVENTION
The invention is based on the discovery of new human transferase molecules
(HTFS), the
polynucleotides encoding HTFS, and the use of these compositions for the
diagnosis, treatment, or
prevention of cell proliferative disorders and immune system disorders.

sequences encoding
HTFS. Columns 1 and 2 show the sequence identification numbers (SEQ ID NOs) of
the polypeptide
and nucleotide sequences, respectively. Column 3 shows the clone IDs of the
Incyte clones in which
nucleic acids encoding each HTFS were identified, and column 4 shows the cDNA
libraries from which
these clones were isolated. Column 5 shows Incyte clones and their
corresponding cDNA libraries.
Clones for which cDNA libraries are not indicated were derived from pooled
cDNA libraries. In some
cases, GenBank sequence identifiers are also shown in column 5. The Incyte
clones and GenBank
cDNA sequences, where indicated, in column 5 were used to assemble the
consensus nucleotide
sequence of each HTFS and are useful as fragments in hybridization
technologies.

residues in each
polypeptide; column 3 shows potential phosphorylation sites; column 4 shows

which are expressly incorporated by reference herein in their entirety; and

methods and in some cases, searchable databases to which the analytical
methods were applied. The
methods of column 7 were used to characterize each polypeptide through

protein motifs.
The columns of Table 3 show the tissue-specificity and diseases, disorders, or
conditions
associated with nucleotide sequences encoding HTFS. The first column of Table

SEQ ID NOs. Fragments of these nucleotide sequences are useful, for example,
in hybridization or
amplification technologies to identify SEQ ID N0:43-84 and to distinguish
between SEQ ID N0:43-
84 and related polynucleotide sequences. The polypeptides encoded by these
fragments are useful, for
example, as immunogenic peptides. Column 2 lists tissue categories which
express HTFS as a fraction
of total tissues expressing HTFS. Column 3 lists diseases, disorders, or
conditions associated with
those tissues expressing HTFS as a fraction of total tissues expressing HTFS.

nucleotide SEQ ID
NOs, column 2 shows the cDNA libraries from which these clones were isolated,
and column 3 shows
the tissue origins and other descriptive information relevant to the cDNA
libraries in column 2.

SEQ ID N0:59
maps to chromosome 20 within the interval from 50.2 to 53.6 centiMorgans and
to chromosome 12
within the interval from 113.3 to 118.9 centiMorgans. SEQ ID N0:60 maps to

within the interval
from 94.4 to 97.4 centiMorgans and to chromosome 2 within the interval from
272.5 centiMorgans to

to 21.5
centiMorgans, to chromosome 17 within the interval from 53.9 to 62.9
centiMorgans, and to
chromosome 12 within the interval from 84.7 to 92.5 centiMorgans. SEQ ID N0:86
maps to
chromosome 6 within the interval from 42.0 to 45.4 centiMorgans, to chromosome
11 within the
interval from 58.2 to 59.5 centiMorgans, and to chromosome 16 within the
interval from 88.1 to 92.6
centiMorgans.
The invention also encompasses HTFS variants. A preferred HTFS variant is one
which has at
23


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
least about 80%, or alternatively at least about 90%, or even at least about
95% amino acid sequence
identity to the HTFS amino acid sequence, and which contains at least one
functional or structural
characteristic of HTFS.
The invention also encompasses polynucleotides which encode HTFS. In a
particular
embodiment, the invention encompasses a polynucleotide sequence comprising a
sequence selected from
the group consisting of SEQ ID N0:43-84, which encodes HTFS. The
polynucleotide sequences of
SEQ ID N0:43-84, as presented in the Sequence Listing, embrace the equivalent
RNA sequences,
wherein occurrences of the nitrogenous base thymine are replaced with uracil,
and the sugar backbone
is composed of ribose instead of deoxyribose.
The invention also encompasses a variant of a polynucleotide sequence encoding
HTFS. In
particular, such a variant polynucleotide sequence will have at least about
70%, or alternatively at least
about 85 %, or even at least about 95 % polynucleotide sequence identity to
the polynucleotide sequence
encoding HTFS. A particular aspect of the invention encompasses a variant of a
polynucleotide
sequence comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID
N0:43-84 which has at
least about 70%, or alternatively at least about 85%, or even at least about
95% polynucleotide
sequence identity to a nucleic acid sequence selected from the group
consisting of SEQ ID N0:43-84.
Any one of the polynucleotide variants described above can encode an amino
acid sequence which
contains at least one functional or structural characteristic of HTFS.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that as a result of the
degeneracy of the genetic
code, a multitude of polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS, some bearing
minimal similarity to the
polynucleotide sequences of any known and naturally occurring gene, may be
produced. Thus, the
invention contemplates each and every possible variation of polynucleotide
sequence that could be made
by selecting combinations based on possible codon choices. These combinations
are made in
accordance with the standard triplet genetic code as applied to the
polynucleotide sequence of naturally
occurring HTFS, and all such variations are to be considered as being
specifically disclosed.
Although nucleotide sequences which encode HTFS and its variants are generally
capable of
hybridizing to the nucleotide sequence of the naturally occurring HTFS under
appropriately selected
conditions of stringency, it may be advantageous to produce nucleotide
sequences encoding HTFS or its
derivatives possessing a substantially different codon usage, e.g., inclusion
of non-naturally occurring
codons. Codons may be selected to increase the rate at which expression of the
peptide occurs in a
particular prokaryotic or eukaryotic host in accordance with the frequency
with which particular codons
are utilized by the host. Other reasons for substantially altering the
nucleotide sequence encoding
HTFS and its derivatives without altering the encoded amino acid sequences
include the production of
RNA transcripts having more desirable properties, such as a greater half life,
than transcripts produced
24


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
from the naturally occurring sequence.
The invention also encompasses production of DNA sequences which encode HTFS
and HTFS
derivatives, or fragments thereof, entirely by synthetic chemistry. After
production, the synthetic
sequence may be inserted into any of the many available expression vectors and
cell systems using
reagents well known in the art. Moreover, synthetic chemistry may be used to
introduce mutations into
a sequence encoding HTFS or any fragment thereof.
Also encompassed by the invention are polynucleotide sequences that are
capable of
hybridizing to the claimed polynucleotide sequences, and, in particular, to
those shown in SEQ ID
N0:43-84 and fragments thereof under various conditions of stringency. (See,
e.g., Wahl, G.M. and
S.L. Berger (1987) Methods Enzymol. 152:399-407; Kimmel, A.R. (1987) Methods
Enzymol.
152:507-511.) Hybridization conditions, including annealing and wash
conditions, are described in
"Definitions."
Methods for DNA sequencing are well known in the art and may be used to
practice any of the
embodiments of the invention. The methods may employ such enzymes as the
Klenow fragment of
DNA polymerise I, SEQUENASE (US Biochemical, Cleveland OH), Taq polymerise (PE
Biosystems,
Foster City CA), thermostable T7 polymerise (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech,
Piscataway NJ), or
combinations of polymerises and proofreading exonucleases such as those found
in the ELONGASE
amplification system (Life Technologies, Gaithersburg MD). Preferably,
sequence preparation is
automated with machines such as the MICROLAB 2200 liquid transfer system
(Hamilton, Reno NV),
PTC200 thermal cycler (MJ Research, Watertown MA) and ABI CATALYST 800 thermal
cycler (PE
Biosystems). Sequencing is then carried out using either the ABI 373 or 377
DNA sequencing system
(PE Biosystems), the MEGABACE 1000 DNA sequencing system (Molecular Dynamics,
Sunnyvale
CA), or other systems known in the art. The resulting sequences are analyzed
using a variety of
algorithms which are well known in the art. (See, e.g., Ausubel, F.M. (1997)
Short Protocols in
Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, New York NY, unit 7.7; Meyers, R.A.
(1995) Molecular
Biology and Biotechnology, Wiley VCH, New York NY, pp. 856-853.)
The nucleic acid sequences encoding HTFS may be extended utilizing a partial
nucleotide
sequence and employing various PCR-based methods known in the art to detect
upstream sequences,
such as promoters and regulatory elements. For example, one method which may
be employed,
restriction-site PCR, uses universal and nested primers to amplify unknown
sequence from genomic
DNA.within a cloning vector. (See, e.g., Sarkar, G. (1993) PCR Methods Applic.
2:318-322.)
Another method, inverse PCR, uses primers that extend in divergent directions
to amplify unknown
sequence from a circularized template. The template is derived from
restriction fragments comprising a
known genomic locus and surrounding sequences. (See, e.g., Triglia, T. et al.
(1988) Nucleic Acids


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
Res. 16:8186.) A third method, capture PCR, involves PCR amplification of DNA
fragments adjacent
to known sequences in human and yeast artificial chromosome DNA. (See, e.g.,
Lagerstrom, M. et al.
(1991) PCR Methods Applic. 1:111-119.) In this method, multiple restriction
enzyme digestions and
legations may be used to insert an engineered double-stranded sequence into a
region of unknown
sequence before performing PCR. Other methods which may be used to retrieve
unknown sequences
are known in the art. (See, e.g., Parker, J.D. et al. (1991) Nucleic Acids
Res. 19:3055-3060).
Additionally, one may use PCR, nested primers, and PROMOTERFINDER libraries
(Clontech, Palo
Alto CA) to walk genomic DNA. This procedure avoids the need to screen
libraries and is useful in
finding intron/exon junctions. For all PCR-based methods, primers may be
designed using
commercially available software, such as OLIGO 4.06 Primer Analysis software
(National Biosciences,
Plymouth MN) or another appropriate program, to be about 22 to 30 nucleotides
in length, to have a
GC content of about 50% or more, and to anneal to the template at temperatures
of about 68°C to
72°C.
When screening for full-length cDNAs, it is preferable to use libraries that
have been
size-selected to include larger cDNAs. In addition, random-primed libraries,
which often include
sequences containing the 5' regions of genes, are preferable for situations in
which an oligo d(T) library
does not yield a full-length cDNA. Genomic libraries may be useful for
extension of sequence into 5'
non-transcribed regulatory regions.
Capillary electrophoresis systems which are commercially available may be used
to analyze the
size or confirm the nucleotide sequence of sequencing or PCR products. In
particular, capillary
sequencing may employ flowable polymers for electrophoretic separation, four
different nucleotide-
specific, laser-stimulated fluorescent dyes, and a charge coupled device
camera for detection of the
emitted wavelengths. Output/light intensity may be converted to electrical
signal using appropriate
software (e.g., GENOTYPER and SEQUENCE NAVIGATOR, PE Biosystems), and the
entire process
from loading of samples to computer analysis and electronic data display may
be computer controlled.
Capillary electrophoresis is especially preferable for sequencing small DNA
fragments which may be
present in limited amounts in a particular sample.
In another embodiment of the invention, polynucleotide sequences or fragments
thereof which
encode HTFS may be cloned in recombinant DNA molecules that direct expression
of HTFS, or
fragments or functional equivalents thereof, in appropriate host cells. Due to
the inherent degeneracy of
the genetic code, other DNA sequences which encode substantially the same or a
functionally equivalent
amino acid sequence may be produced and used to express HTFS.
The nucleotide sequences of the present invention can be engineered using
methods generally
known in the art in order to alter HTFS-encoding sequences for a variety of
purposes including, but not
26


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
limited to, modification of the cloning, processing, and/or expression of the
gene product. DNA
shuffling by random fragmentation and PCR reassembly of gene fragments and
synthetic
oligonucleotides may be used to engineer the nucleotide sequences. For
example, oligonucleotide-
mediated site-directed mutagenesis may be used to introduce mutations that
create new restriction sites,
alter glycosylation patterns, change codon preference, produce splice
variants, and so forth.
The nucleotides of the present invention may be subjected to DNA shuffling
techniques such
as MOLECULARBREEDING (Maxygen Inc., Santa Clara CA; described in U.S. Patent
Number
5,837,458; Chang, C.-C. et al. (1999) Nat. Biotechnol. 17:793-797; Christians,
F.C. et al. (1999) Nat.
Biotechnol. 17:259-264; and Crameri, A. et al. (1996) Nat. Biotechnol. 14:315-
319) to alter or
improve the biological properties of HTFS, such as its biological or enzymatic
activity or its ability to
bind to other molecules or compounds. DNA shuffling is a process by which a
library of gene
variants is produced using PCR-mediated recombination of gene fragments. The
library is then
subjected to selection or screening procedures that identify those gene
variants with the desired
properties. These preferred variants may then be pooled and further subjected
to recursive rounds of
DNA shuffling and selection/screening. Thus, genetic diversity is created
through "artificial"
breeding and rapid molecular evolution. For example, fragments of a single
gene containing random
point mutations may be recombined, screened, and then reshuffled until the
desired properties are
optimized. Alternatively, fragments of a given gene may be recombined with
fragments of
homologous genes in the same gene family, either from the same or different
species, thereby
maximizing the genetic diversity of multiple naturally occurring genes in a
directed and controllable
manner.
In another embodiment, sequences encoding HTFS may be synthesized, in whole or
in part,
using chemical methods well known in the art. (See, e.g., Caruthers, M.H. et
al. (1980) Nucleic Acids
Symp. Ser. 7:215-223; Horn, T. et al. (1980) Nucleic Acids Symp. Ser. 7:225-
232.) Alternatively,
HTFS itself or a fragment thereof may be synthesized using chemical methods.
For example, peptide
synthesis can be performed using various solution-phase or solid-phase
techniques. (See, e.g.,
Creighton, T. (1984) Proteins, Structures and Molecular Properties, WH
Freeman, New York NY, pp.
55-60; and Roberge, J.Y. et al. (1995) Science 269:202-204.) Automated
synthesis may be achieved
using the ABI 431 A peptide synthesizer (PE Biosystems). Additionally, the
amino acid sequence of
HTFS, or any part thereof, may be altered during direct synthesis and/or
combined with sequences from
other proteins, or any part thereof, to produce a variant polypeptide or a
polypeptide having a sequence
of a naturally occurring polypeptide.
The peptide may be substantially purified by preparative high performance
liquid
chromatography. (See, e.g., Chiez, R.M. and F.Z. Regnier (1990) Methods
Enzymol. 182:392-421.)
The composition of the synthetic peptides may be confirmed by amino acid
analysis or by sequencing.

(See, e.g., Creighton, supra, pp. 28-53.)
In order to express a biologically active HTFS, the nucleotide sequences
encoding HTFS or
derivatives thereof may be inserted into an appropriate expression vector,
i.e., a vector which contains
the necessary elements for transcriptional and translational control of the
inserted coding sequence in a
suitable host. These elements include regulatory sequences, such as enhancers,
constitutive and
inducible promoters, and 5' and 3' untranslated regions in the vector and in
polynucleotide sequences
encoding HTFS. Such elements may vary in their strength and specificity.
Specific initiation signals
may also be used to achieve more efficient translation of sequences encoding
HTFS. Such signals
include the ATG initiation codon and adjacent sequences, e.g. the Kozak
sequence. In cases where
sequences encoding HTFS and its initiation codon and upstream regulatory
sequences are inserted into
the appropriate expression vector, no additional transcriptional or
translational control signals may be
needed. However, in cases where only coding sequence, or a fragment thereof,
is inserted, exogenous
translational control signals including an in-frame ATG initiation codon
should be provided by the
vector. Exogenous translational elements and initiation codons may be of
various origins, both natural
and synthetic. The efficiency of expression may be enhanced by the inclusion
of enhancers appropriate
for the particular host cell system used. (See, e.g., Scharf, D. et al. (1994)
Results Probl. Cell Differ.
20:125-162.)
Methods which are well known to those skilled in the art may be used to
construct expression
vectors containing sequences encoding HTFS and appropriate transcriptional and
translational control
elements. These methods include in vitro recombinant DNA techniques, synthetic
techniques, and in
vivo genetic recombination. (See, e.g., Sambrook, J. et al. (1989) Molecular
Cloning, A Laboratory
Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Plainview NY, ch. 4, 8, and 16-17; Ausubel,
F.M. et al. (1995)
Current Protocols in Molecular Biolo~y> John Wiley & Sons, New York NY, ch. 9,
13, and 16.)
A variety of expression vector/host systems may be utilized to contain and
express sequences
encoding HTFS. These include, but are not limited to, microorganisms such as
bacteria transformed
with recombinant bacteriophage, plasmid, or cosmid DNA expression vectors;
yeast transformed with
yeast expression vectors; insect cell systems infected with viral expression
vectors (e.g., baculovirus);
plant cell systems transformed with viral expression vectors (e.g.,
cauliflower mosaic virus, CaMV, or
tobacco mosaic virus, TMV) or with bacterial expression vectors (e.g., Ti or
pBR322 plasmids); or
animal cell systems. (See, e.g., Sambrook, su ra; Ausubel, supra; Van Heeke,

3659; and Harrington,
J.J. et al. (1997) Nat. Genet. 15:345-355.) Expression vectors derived from
retroviruses,
adenoviruses, or herpes or vaccinia viruses, or from various bacterial
plasmids, may be used for
delivery of nucleotide sequences to the targeted organ, tissue, or cell
population. (See, e.g., Di
Nicola, M. et al. (1998) Cancer Gen. Ther. 5(6):350-356; Yu, M. et al. (1993)

(1994) Mol. Immunol. 31(3):219-226; and Verma, LM. and N. Somia (1997) Nature
389:239-242.)
The invention is not limited by the host cell employed.
In bacterial systems, a number of cloning and expression vectors may be
selected depending
upon the use intended for polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS. For example,
routine cloning,
subcloning, and propagation of polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS can be
achieved using a
multifunctional E. coli vector such as PBLUESCRIPT (Stratagene, La Jolla CA)
or PSPORT1 plasmid
(Life Technologies). Ligation of sequences encoding HTFS into the vector's
multiple cloning site
disrupts the IacZ gene, allowing a colorimetric screening procedure for
identification of transformed
bacteria containing recombinant molecules. In addition, these vectors may be
useful for in vitro
transcription, dideoxy sequencing, single strand rescue with helper phage, and
creation of nested
deletions in the cloned sequence. (See, e.g., Van Heeke, G. and S.M. Schuster
(1989) J. Biol. Chem.
264:5503-5509.) When large quantities of HTFS are needed, e.g. for the
production of antibodies,
vectors which direct high level expression of HTFS may be used. For example,
vectors containing the
strong, inducible TS or T7 bacteriophage promoter may be used.
Yeast expression systems may be used for production of HTFS. A number of
vectors
containing constitutive or inducible promoters, such as alpha factor, alcohol
oxidase, and PGH
promoters, may be used in the yeast Saccharomvces cerevisiae or Pichia
nastoris. In addition, such
vectors direct either the secretion or intracellular retention of expressed
proteins and enable integration
of foreign sequences into the host genome for stable propagation. (See, e.g.,
Ausubel, 1995, supra;
Bitter, supra; and Scorer, supra.)
Plant systems may also be used for expression of HTFS. Transcription of
sequences encoding
HTFS may be driven viral promoters, e.g., the 35S and 19S promoters of CaMV
used alone or in
combination with the omega leader sequence from TMV (Takamatsu, N. (1987) EMBO
J. 6:307-311).
Alternatively, plant promoters such as the small subunit of RUBISCO or heat
shock promoters may be
used. (See, e.g., Coruzzi, su ra; Brogue, su ra; and Winter, supra.) These
constructs can be
introduced into plant cells by direct DNA transformation or pathogen-mediated
transfection. (See, e.g.,
The McGraw Hill Yearbook of Science and Technolo~y (1992) McGraw Hill, New
York NY, pp.
191-196.)
29


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
In mammalian cells, a number of viral-based expression systems may be
utilized. In cases
where an adenovirus is used as an expression vector, sequences encoding HTFS
may be ligated into an
adenovirus transcription/translation complex consisting of the late promoter
and tripartite leader
sequence. Insertion in a non-essential E1 or E3 region of the viral genome may
be used to obtain
infective virus which expresses HTFS in host cells. (See, e.g., Logan, J. and
T. Shenk (1984) Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81:3655-3659.) In addition, transcription enhancers, such
as the Rous sarcoma
virus (RSV) enhancer, may be used to increase expression in mammalian host
cells. SV40 or EBV-
based vectors may also be used for high-level protein expression.
Human artificial chromosomes (HACs) may also be employed to deliver larger
fragments of
DNA than can be contained in and expressed from a plasmid. HACs of about 6 kb
to 10 Mb are
constructed and delivered via conventional delivery methods (liposomes,
polycationic amino polymers,
or vesicles) for therapeutic purposes. (See, e.g., Harrington, J.J. et al.
(1997) Nat. Genet. 15:345-355.)
For long term production of recombinant proteins in mammalian systems, stable
expression of
HTFS in cell lines is preferred. For example, sequences encoding HTFS can be
transformed into cell
lines using expression vectors which may contain viral origins of replication
and/or endogenous
expression elements and a selectable marker gene on the same or on a separate
vector. Following the
introduction of the vector, cells may be allowed to grow for about 1 to 2 days
in enriched media before
being switched to selective media. The purpose of the selectable marker is to
confer resistance to a
selective agent, and its presence allows growth and recovery of cells which
successfully express the
introduced sequences. Resistant clones of stably transformed cells may be
propagated using tissue
culture techniques appropriate to the cell type.
Any number of selection systems may be used to recover transformed cell lines.
These include,
but are not limited to, the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase and adenine
phosphoribosyltransferase
genes, for use in tk- and apr cells, respectively. (See, e.g., Wigler, M. et
al. (1977) Cell 11:223-232;
Lowy, I. et al. (1980) Cell 22:817-823.) Also, antimetabolite, antibiotic, or
herbicide resistance can be
used as the basis for selection. For example, dhfr confers resistance to
methotrexate; neo confers
resistance to the aminoglycosides neomycin and G-418; and als and pat confer
resistance to
chlorsulfuron and phosphinotricin acetyltransferase, respectively. (See, e.g.,
Wigler, M. et al. (1980)
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 77:3567-3570; Colbere-Garapin, F. et al. (1981) J.
Mol. Biol. 150:1-14.)
Additional selectable genes have been described, e.g., trpB and hisD, which
alter cellular requirements
for metabolites. (See, e.g., Hartman, S.C. and R.C. Mulligan (1988) Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA
85:8047-8051.) Visible markers, e.g., anthocyanins, green fluorescent proteins
(GFP; Clontech),13
glucuronidase and its substrate B-glucuronide, or luciferase and its substrate
luciferin may be used.
These markers can be used not only to identify transformants, but also to
quantify the amount of


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
transient or stable protein expression attributable to a specific vector
system. (See, e.g., Rhodes, C.A.
(1995) Methods Mol. Biol. 55:121-131.)
Although the presence/absence of marker gene expression suggests that the gene
of interest is
also present, the presence and expression of the gene may need to be
confirmed. For example, if the
sequence encoding HTFS is inserted within a marker gene sequence, transformed
cells containing
sequences encoding HTFS can be identified by the absence of marker gene
function. Alternatively, a
marker gene can be placed in tandem with a sequence encoding HTFS under the
control of a single
promoter. Expression of the marker gene in response to induction or selection
usually indicates
expression of the tandem gene as well.
In general, host cells that contain the nucleic acid sequence encoding HTFS
and that express
HTFS may be identified by a variety of procedures known to those of skill in
the art. These procedures
include, but are not limited to, DNA-DNA or DNA-RNA hybridizations, PCR
amplification, and
protein bioassay or immunoassay techniques which include membrane, solution,
or chip based
technologies for the detection and/or quantification of nucleic acid or
protein sequences.
Immunological methods for detecting and measuring the expression of HTFS using
either
specific polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies are known in the art. Examples of
such techniques include
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), radioimmunoassays (RIAs), and
fluorescence
activated cell sorting (FACS). A two-site, monoclonal-based immunoassay
utilizing monoclonal
antibodies reactive to two non-interfering epitopes on HTFS is preferred, but
a competitive binding
assay may be employed. These and other assays are well known in the art. (See,
e.g., Hampton, R. et
al. (1990) Serological Methods, a Laboratory Manual, APS Press, St. Paul MN,
Sect. IV; Coligan, J.E.
et al. (1997) Current Protocols in Immunolo~y, Greene Pub. Associates and
Wiley-Interscience, New
York NY; and Pound, J.D. (1998) Immunochemical Protocols, Humana Press, Totowa
NJ.)
A wide variety of labels and conjugation techniques are known by those skilled
in the art and
may be used in various nucleic acid and amino acid assays. Means for producing
labeled hybridization
or PCR probes for detecting sequences related to polynucleotides encoding HTFS
include oligolabeling,
nick translation, end-labeling, or PCR amplification using a labeled
nucleotide. Alternatively, the
sequences encoding HTFS, or any fragments thereof, may be cloned into a vector
for the production of
an mRNA probe. Such vectors are known in the art, are commercially available,
and may be used to
synthesize RNA probes in vitro by addition of an appropriate RNA polymerise
such as T7, T3, or SP6
and labeled nucleotides. These procedures may be conducted using a variety of
commercially available
kits, such as those provided by Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Promega (Madison
WI), and US
Biochemical. Suitable reporter molecules or labels which may be used for ease
of detection include
radionuclides, enzymes, fluorescent, chemiluminescent, or chromogenic agents,
as well as substrates,
31


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
cofactors, inhibitors, magnetic particles, and the like.
Host cells transformed with nucleotide sequences encoding HTFS may be cultured
under
conditions suitable for the expression and recovery of the protein from cell
culture. The protein
produced by a transformed cell may be secreted or retained intracellularly
depending on the sequence
and/or the vector used. As will be understood by those of skill in the art,
expression vectors containing
polynucleotides which encode HTFS may be designed to contain signal sequences
which direct secretion
of HTFS through a prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell membrane.
In addition, a host cell strain may be chosen for its ability to modulate
expression of the
inserted sequences or to process the expressed protein in the desired fashion.
Such modifications of the
polypeptide include, but are not limited to, acetylation, carboxylation,
glycosylation, phosphorylation,
lipidation, and acylation. Post-translational processing which cleaves a
"prepro" or "pro" form of the
protein may also be used to specify protein targeting, folding, and/or
activity. Different host cells
which have specific cellular machinery and characteristic mechanisms for post-
translational activities
(e.g., CHO, HeLa, MDCK, HEK293, and WI38) are available from the American Type
Culture
Collection (ATCC, Manassas VA) and may be chosen to ensure the correct
modification and processing
of the foreign protein.
In another embodiment of the invention, natural, modified, or recombinant
nucleic acid
sequences encoding HTFS may be ligated to a heterologous sequence resulting in
translation of a fusion
protein in any of the aforementioned host systems. For example, a chimeric
HTFS protein containing a
heterologous moiety that can be recognized by a commercially available
antibody may facilitate the
screening of peptide libraries for inhibitors of HTFS activity. Heterologous
protein and peptide
moieties may also facilitate purification of fusion proteins using
commercially available affinity
matrices. Such moieties include, but are not limited to, glutathione S-
transferase (GST), maltose
binding protein (MBP), thioredoxin (Trx), calmodulin binding peptide (CBP), 6-
His, FLAG, c-myc, and
hemagglutinin (HA). GST, MBP, Trx, CBP, and 6-His enable purification of their
cognate fusion
proteins on immobilized glutathione, maltose, phenylarsine oxide, calmodulin,
and metal-chelate resins,
respectively. FLAG, c-myc, and hemagglutinin (HA) enable immunoaffinity
purification of fusion
proteins using commercially available monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies
that specifically recognize
these epitope tags. A fusion protein may also be engineered to contain a
proteolytic cleavage site
located between the HTFS encoding sequence and the heterologous protein
sequence, so that HTFS may
be cleaved away from the heterologous moiety following purification. Methods
for fusion protein
expression and purification are discussed in Ausubel (1995, supra, ch. 10). A
variety of commercially
available kits may also be used to facilitate expression and purification of
fusion proteins.
In a further embodiment of the invention, synthesis of radiolabeled HTFS may
be achieved in
32


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
vitro using the TNT rabbit reticulocyte lysate or wheat germ extract system
(Promega). These systems
couple transcription and translation of protein-coding sequences operably
associated with the T7, T3, or
SP6 promoters. Translation takes place in the presence of a radiolabeled amino
acid precursor, for
example, 35S-methionine.
HTFS of the present invention or fragments thereof may be used to screen for
compounds that
specifically bind to HTFS. At least one and up to a plurality of test
compounds may be screened for
specific binding to HTFS. Examples of test compounds include antibodies,
oligonucleotides, proteins
(e.g., receptors), or small molecules.
In one embodiment, the compound thus identified is closely related to the
natural ligand of
HTFS, e.g., a ligand or fragment thereof, a natural substrate, a structural or
functional mimetic, or a
natural binding partner. (See, e.g., Coligan, J.E. et al. (1991) Current
Protocols in ImmunoloQV 1(2):
Chapter 5.) Similarly, the compound can be closely related to the natural
receptor to which HTFS
binds, or to at least a fragment of the receptor, e.g., the ligand binding
site. In either case, the
compound can be rationally designed using known techniques. In one embodiment,
screening for
these compounds involves producing appropriate cells which express HTFS,
either as a secreted
protein or on the cell membrane. Preferred cells include cells from mammals,
yeast, Drosophila, or E.
coli. Cells expressing HTFS or cell membrane fractions which contain HTFS are
then contacted with
a test compound and binding, stimulation, or inhibition of activity of either
HTFS or the compound is
analyzed.
An assay may simply test binding of a test compound to the polypeptide,
wherein binding is
detected by a fluorophore, radioisotope, enzyme conjugate, or other detectable
label. For example,
the assay may comprise the steps of combining at least one test compound with
HTFS, either in
solution or affixed to a solid support, and detecting the binding of HTFS to
the compound.
Alternatively, the assay may detect or measure binding of a test compound in
the presence of a
labeled competitor. Additionally, the assay may be carried out using cell-free
preparations, chemical
libraries, or natural product mixtures, and the test compounds) may be free in
solution or affixed to a
solid support.
HTFS of the present invention or fragments thereof may be used to screen for
compounds that
modulate the activity of HTFS. Such compounds may include agonists,
antagonists, or partial or
inverse agonists. In one embodiment, an assay is performed under conditions
permissive for HTFS
activity, wherein HTFS is combined with at least one test compound, and the
activity of HTFS in the
presence of a test compound is compared with the activity of HTFS in the
absence of the test
compound. A change in the activity of HTFS in the presence of the test
compound is indicative of a
compound that modulates the activity of HTFS. Alternatively, a test compound
is combined with an
in vitro or cell-free system comprising HTFS under conditions suitable for
HTFS activity, and the
33


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
assay is performed. In either of these assays, a test compound which modulates
the activity of HTFS
may do so indirectly and need not come in direct contact with the test
compound. At least one and up
to a plurality of test compounds may be screened.
In another embodiment, polynucleotides encoding HTFS or their mammalian
homologs may
be "knocked out" in an animal model system using homologous recombination in
embryonic stem
(ES) cells. Such techniques are well known in the art and are useful for the
generation of animal
models of human disease. (See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,175,383 and U.S. Patent
No. 5,767,337.) For
example, mouse ES cells, such as the mouse 129/SvJ cell line, are derived from
the early mouse
embryo and grown in culture. The ES cells are transformed with a vector
containing the gene of
interest disrupted by a marker gene, e.g., the neomycin phosphotransferase
gene (neo; Capecchi, M.R.
(1989) Science 244:1288-1292). The vector integrates into the corresponding
region of the host
genome by homologous recombination. Alternatively, homologous recombination
takes place using
the Cre-loxP system to knockout a gene of interest in a tissue- or
developmental stage-specific
manner (March, J.D. (1996) Clin. Invest. 97:1999-2002; Wagner, K.U. et al.
(1997) Nucleic Acids
Res. 25:4323-4330). Transformed ES cells are identified and microinjected into
mouse cell
blastocysts such as those from the C57BL/6 mouse strain. The blastocysts are
surgically transferred
to pseudopregnant dams, and the resulting chimeric progeny are genotyped and
bred to produce
heterozygous or homozygous strains. Transgenic animals thus generated may be
tested with potential
therapeutic or toxic agents.
Polynucleotides encoding HTFS may also be manipulated in vitro in ES cells
derived from
human blastocysts. Human ES cells have the potential to differentiate into at
least eight separate cell
lineages including endoderm, mesoderm, and ectodermal cell types. These cell
lineages differentiate
into, for example, neural cells, hematopoietic lineages, and cardiomyocytes
(Thomson, J.A. et al.
(1998) Science 282:1145-1147).
Polynucleotides encoding HTFS can also be used to create "knockin" humanized
animals
(pigs) or transgenic animals (mice or rats) to model human disease. With
knockin technology, a
region of a polynucleotide encoding HTFS is injected into animal ES cells, and
the injected sequence
integrates into the animal cell genome. Transformed cells are injected into
blastulae, and the
blastulae are implanted as described above. Transgenic progeny or inbred lines
are studied and
treated with potential pharmaceutical agents to obtain information on
treatment of a human disease.
Alternatively, a mammal inbred to overexpress HTFS, e.g., by secreting HTFS in
its milk, may also
serve as a convenient source of that protein (Janne, J. et al. (1998)
Biotechnol. Annu. Rev. 4:55-74).
THERAPEUTICS
Chemical and structural similarity, e.g., in the context of sequences and
motifs, exists
between regions of HTFS and human transferase molecules. In addition, the
expression of HTFS is
34


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
closely associated with proliferating tissues and inflammation. Therefore,
HTFS appears to play a
role in cell proliferative disorders and immune system disorders. In the
treatment of disorders
associated with increased HTFS expression or activity, it is desirable to
decrease the expression or
activity of HTFS. In the treatment of disorders associated with decreased HTFS
expression or
activity, it is desirable to increase the expression or activity of HTFS.
Therefore, in one embodiment, HTFS or a fragment or derivative thereof may be
administered to a subject to treat or prevent a disorder associated with
decreased expression or
activity of HTFS. Examples of such disorders include, but are not limited to,
a cell proliferative
disorder such as actinic keratosis, arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis,
bursitis, cirrhosis, hepatitis, mixed
connective tissue disease (MCTD), myelolibrosis, paroxysmal nocturnal
hemoglobinuria,
polycythemia vera, psoriasis, primary thrombocythemia, and cancers including
adenocarcinoma,
leukemia, lymphoma, melanoma, myeloma, sarcoma, teratocarcinoma, and, in
particular, cancers of
the adrenal gland, bladder, bone, bone marrow, brain, breast, cervix, gall
bladder, ganglia,
gastrointestinal tract, heart, kidney, liver, lung, muscle, ovary, pancreas,
parathyroid, penis, prostate,
salivary glands, skin, spleen, testis, thymus, thyroid, and uterus; and an
immune system disorder such
as inflammation, actinic keratosis, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS),
Addison's disease,
adult respiratory distress syndrome, allergies, ankylosing spondylitis,
amyloidosis, anemia,
arteriosclerosis, asthma, atherosclerosis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia,
autoimmune thyroiditis,

disease, atopic dermatitis,

gastritis, glomerulonephritis, Goodpasture's syndrome, gout, Graves' disease,
Hashimoto's
thyroiditis, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, hepatitis,
hypereosinophilia, irritable bowel
syndrome, episodic lymphopenia with lymphocytotoxins, mixed connective tissue
disease (MCTD),

syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, Sjogren's syndrome, systemic
anaphylaxis, systemic
lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, primary thrombocythemia,

hemodialysis, and
extracorporeal circulation, trauma, and hematopoietic cancer including
lymphoma, leukemia, and
myeloma.
In another embodiment, a vector capable of expressing HTFS or a fragment or
derivative
thereof may be administered to a subject to treat or prevent a disorder
associated with decreased
expression or activity of HTFS including, but not limited to, those described
above.
In a further embodiment, a composition comprising a substantially purified
HTFS in
conjunction with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier may be administered to a
subject to treat or prevent a


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
disorder associated with decreased expression or activity of HTFS including,
but not limited to, those
provided above.
In still another embodiment, an agonist which modulates the activity of HTFS
may be
administered to a subject to treat or prevent a disorder associated with
decreased expression or activity
of HTFS including, but not limited to, those listed above.
In a further embodiment, an antagonist of HTFS may be administered to a
subject to treat or
prevent a disorder associated with increased expression or activity of HTFS.
Examples of such
disorders include, but are not limited to, those cell proliferative disorders
and immune system disorders
described above. In one aspect, an antibody which specifically binds HTFS may
be used directly as an
antagonist or indirectly as a targeting or delivery mechanism for bringing a
pharmaceutical agent to
cells or tissues which express HTFS.
In an additional embodiment, a vector expressing the complement of the
polynucleotide
encoding HTFS may be administered to a subject to treat or prevent a disorder
associated with
increased expression or activity of HTFS including, but not limited to, those
described above.
In other embodiments, any of the proteins, antagonists, antibodies, agonists,
complementary
sequences, or vectors of the invention may be administered in combination with
other appropriate
therapeutic agents. Selection of the appropriate agents for use in combination
therapy may be made by
one of ordinary skill in the art, according to conventional pharmaceutical
principles. The combination
of therapeutic agents may act synergistically to effect the treatment or
prevention of the various
disorders described above. Using this approach, one may be able to achieve
therapeutic efficacy with
lower dosages of each agent, thus reducing the potential for adverse side
effects.
An antagonist of HTFS may be produced using methods which are generally known
in the art.
In particular, purified HTFS may be used to produce antibodies or to screen
libraries of pharmaceutical
agents to identify those which specifically bind HTFS. Antibodies to HTFS may
also be generated
using methods that are well known in the art. Such antibodies may include, but
are not limited to,
polyclonal, monoclonal, chimeric, and single chain antibodies, Fab fragments,
and fragments produced
by a Fab expression library. Neutralizing antibodies (i.e., those which
inhibit dimer formation) are
generally preferred for therapeutic use.
For the production of antibodies, various hosts including goats, rabbits,
rats, mice, humans,
and others may be immunized by injection with HTFS or with any fragment or
oligopeptide thereof
which has immunogenic properties. Depending on the host species, various
adjuvants may be used to
increase immunological response. Such adjuvants include, but are not limited
to, Freund's, mineral gels
such as aluminum hydroxide, and surface active substances such as
lysolecithin, pluronic polyols,
polyanions, peptides, oil emulsions, KLH, and dinitrophenol. Among adjuvants
used in humans, BCG
36


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
(bacilli Calmette-Guerin) and Corynebacterium parvum are especially
preferable.
It is preferred that the oligopeptides, peptides, or fragments used to induce
antibodies to HTFS
have an amino acid sequence consisting of at least about 5 amino acids, and
generally will consist of at
least about 10 amino acids. It is also preferable that these oligopeptides,
peptides, or fragments are
identical to a portion of the amino acid sequence of the natural protein.
Short stretches of HTFS amino
acids may be fused with those of another protein, such as KLH, and antibodies
to the chimeric molecule
may be produced.
Monoclonal antibodies to HTFS may be prepared using any technique which
provides for the
production of antibody molecules by continuous cell lines in culture. These
include, but are not limited
to, the hybridoma technique, the human B-cell hybridoma technique, and the EBV-
hybridoma
technique. (See, e.g., Kohler, G. et al. (1975) Nature 256:495-497; Kozbor, D.
et al. (1985) J.
Immunol. Methods 81:31-42; Cote, R.J. et al. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA
80:2026-2030; and
Cole, S.P. et al. (1984) Mol. Cell Biol. 62:109-120.)
In addition, techniques developed for the production of "chimeric antibodies,"
such as the
splicing of mouse antibody genes to human antibody genes to obtain a molecule
with appropriate
antigen specificity and biological activity, can be used. (See, e.g.,
Morrison, S.L. et al. (1984) Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81:6851-6855; Neuberger, M.S. et al. (1984) Nature
312:604-608; and Takeda,
S. et al. (1985) Nature 314:452-454.) Alternatively, techniques described for
the production of single
chain antibodies may be adapted, using methods known in the art, to produce
HTFS-specific single
chain antibodies. Antibodies with related specificity, but of distinct
idiotypic composition, may be
generated by chain shuffling from random combinatorial immunoglobulin
libraries. (See, e.g., Burton,
D.R. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88:10134-10137.)
Antibodies may also be produced by inducing in vivo production in the
lymphocyte population
or by screening immunoglobulin libraries or panels of highly specific binding
reagents as disclosed in
the literature. (See, e.g., Orlandi, R. et al. (1989) Froc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
USA 86:3833-3837; Winter,
G. et al. (1991) Nature 349:293-299.)
Antibody fragments which contain specific binding sites for HTFS may also be
generated. For
example, such fragments include, but are not limited to, F(ab')2 fragments
produced by pepsin digestion
of the antibody molecule and Fab fragments generated by reducing the disulfide
bridges of the F(ab')2
fragments. Alternatively, Fab expression libraries may be constructed to allow
rapid and easy
identification of monoclonal Fab fragments with the desired specificity. (See,
e.g., Huse, W.D. et al.
(1989) Science 246:1275-1281.)
Various immunoassays may be used for screening to identify antibodies having
the desired
specificity. Numerous protocols for competitive binding or immunoradiometric
assays using either
37


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies with established specificities are well
known in the art. Such
immunoassays typically involve the measurement of complex formation between
HTFS and its specific
antibody. A two-site, monoclonal-based immunoassay utilizing monoclonal
antibodies reactive to two
non-interfering HTFS epitopes is generally used, but a competitive binding
assay may also be employed
(Pound, su ra).
Various methods such as Scatchard analysis in conjunction with
radioimmunoassay techniques
may be used to assess the affinity of antibodies for HTFS. Affinity is
expressed as an association
constant, Ka, which is defined as the molar concentration of HTFS-antibody
complex divided by the
molar concentrations of free antigen and free antibody under equilibrium
conditions. The Ka determined
for a preparation of polyclonal antibodies, which are heterogeneous in their
affinities for multiple HTFS
epitopes, represents the average affinity, or avidity, of the antibodies for
HTFS. The Ka determined for
a preparation of monoclonal antibodies, which are monospecific for a
particular HTFS epitope,
represents a true measure of affinity. High-affinity antibody preparations
with Ka ranging from about
109 to 10'2 L/mole are preferred for use in immunoassays in which the HTFS-
antibody complex must
withstand rigorous manipulations. Low-affinity antibody preparations with Ka
ranging from about 106
to 10' L/mole are preferred for use in immunopurification and similar
procedures which ultimately
require dissociation of HTFS, preferably in active form, from the antibody
(Catty, D. (1988)
Antibodies, Volume I: A Practical Approach, IRL Press, Washington DC; Liddell,
J.E. and A. Cryer
(1991) A Practical Guide to Monoclonal Antibodies, John Wiley & Sons, New York
NY).
The titer and avidity of polyclonal antibody preparations may be further
evaluated to determine
the quality and suitability of such preparations for certain downstream
applications. For example, a
polyclonal antibody preparation containing at least 1-2 mg specific
antibody/ml, preferably 5-10 mg
specific antibody/ml, is generally employed in procedures requiring
precipitation of HTFS-antibody
complexes. Procedures for evaluating antibody specificity, titer, and avidity,
and guidelines for
antibody quality and usage in various applications, are generally available.
(See, e.g., Catty, su ra, and
Coligan et al., supra.)
In another embodiment of the invention, the polynucleotides encoding HTFS, or
any fragment
or complement thereof, may be used for therapeutic purposes. In one aspect,
modifications of gene
expression can be achieved by designing complementary sequences or antisense
molecules (DNA, RNA,
PNA, or modified oligonucleotides) to the coding or regulatory regions of the
gene encoding HTFS.
Such technology is well known in the art, and antisense oligonucleotides or
larger fragments can be
designed from various locations along the coding or control regions of
sequences encoding HTFS. (See,
e.g., Agrawal, S., ed. (1996) Antisense Therapeutics, Humana Press Inc.,
Totawa NJ.)
In therapeutic use, any gene delivery system suitable for introduction of the
antisense
38


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
sequences into appropriate target cells can be used. Antisense sequences can
be delivered
intracellularly in the form of an expression plasmid which, upon
transcription, produces a sequence
complementary to at least a portion of the cellular sequence encoding the
target protein. (See, e.g.,
Slater, J.E. et al. (1998) J. Allergy Clin. Immunol. 102(3):469-475; and
Scanlon, K.J. et al. (1995)
9(13):1288-1296.) Antisense sequences can also be introduced intracellularly
through the use of viral
vectors, such as retrovirus and adeno-associated virus vectors. (See, e.g.,
Miller, A.D. (1990) Blood
76:271; Ausubel, supra; Uckert, W. and W. Walther (1994) Pharmacol. Ther.
63(3):323-347.) Other
gene delivery mechanisms include liposome-derived systems, artificial viral
envelopes, and other
systems known in the art. (See, e.g., Rossi, J.J. (1995) Br. Med. Bull.
51(1):217-225; Boado, R.J. et
al. (1998) J. Pharm. Sci. 87(11):1308-1315; and Moms, M.C. et al. (1997)
Nucleic Acids Res.
25(14):2730-2736.)
In another embodiment of the invention, polynucleotides encoding HTFS may be
used for
somatic or germline gene therapy. Gene therapy may be performed to (i) correct
a genetic deficiency
(e.g., in the cases of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)-X1 disease
characterized by X-linked
inheritance (Cavazzana-Calvo, M. et al. (2000) Science 288:669-672), severe
combined
immunodeficiency syndrome associated with an inherited adenosine deaminase
(ADA) deficiency
(Blaese, R.M. et al. (1995) Science 270:475-480; Bordignon, C. et al. (1995)
Science 270:470-475),
cystic fibrosis (Zabner, J. et al. (1993) Cell 75:207-216; Crystal, R.G. et
al. (1995) Hum. Gene
Therapy 6:643-666; Crystal, R.G. et al. (1995) Hum. Gene Therapy 6:667-703),
thalassamias, familial
hypercholesterolemia, and hemophilia resulting from Factor VIII or Factor IX
deficiencies (Crystal,
R.G. (1995) Science 270:404-410; Verma, LM. and N. Somia (1997) Nature 389:239-
242)), (ii)
express a conditionally lethal gene product (e.g., in the case of cancers
which result from unregulated
cell proliferation), or (iii) express a protein which affords protection
against intracellular parasites (e.g.,
against human retroviruses, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIS
(Baltimore, D. (1988)
Nature 335:395-396; Poeschla, E. et al. (1996) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA.
93:11395-11399),
hepatitis B or C virus (HBV, HCV); fungal parasites, such as Candida albicans
and Paracoccidioides
brasiliensis; and protozoan parasites such as Plasmodium falciparum and
Trypanosoma cruzi). In the
case where a genetic deficiency in HTFS expression or regulation causes
disease, the expression of
HTFS from an appropriate population of transduced cells may alleviate the
clinical manifestations
caused by the genetic deficiency.
In a further embodiment of the invention, diseases or disorders caused by
deficiencies in HTFS
are treated by constructing mammalian expression vectors encoding HTFS and
introducing these
vectors by mechanical means into HTFS-deficient cells. Mechanical transfer
technologies for use with
cells in vivo or ex vitro include (i) direct DNA microinjection into
individual cells, (ii) ballistic gold
particle delivery, (iii) liposome-mediated transfection, (iv) receptor-
mediated gene transfer, and (v) the
39

use of DNA transposons (Morgan, R.A. and W.F. Anderson (1993) Annu. Rev.
Biochem. 62:191-217;
Ivics, Z. (1997) Cell 91:501-510; Boulay, J-L. and H. R6cipon (1998) Curr.
Opin. Biotechnol. 9:445-
450).
Expression vectors that may be effective for the expression of HTFS include,
but are not
limited to, the PCDNA 3.1, EPITAG, PRCCMV2, PREP, PVAX vectors (Invitrogen,
Carlsbad CA),
PCMV-SCRIPT, PCMV-TAG, PEGSH/PERV (Stratagene, La Jolla CA), and PTET-OFF,
PTET-ON, PTRE2, PTRE2-LUC, PTK-HYG (Clontech, Palo Alto CA). HTFS may be
expressed
using (i) a constitutively active promoter, (e.g., from cytomegalovirus (CMV),
Rous sarcoma virus
(RSV), SV40 virus, thymidine kinase (TK), or (3-actin genes), (ii) an
inducible promoter (e.g., the
tetracycline-regulated promoter (Gossen, M. and H. Bujard (1992) Proc. Natl.
Acad. Sci. USA
89:5547-5551; Gossen, M. et al. (1995) Science 268:1766-1769; Rossi, F.M.V.
and H.M. Blau (1998)
Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 9:451-456), commercially available in the T-REX
plasmid (Invitrogen)); the
ecdysone-inducible promoter (available in the plasmids PVGRXR and PIND;
Invitrogen); the
FK506/rapamycin inducible promoter; or the RU486/mifepristone inducible
promoter (Rossi, F.M.V.
and H.M. Blau, supra)), or (iii) a tissue-specific promoter or the native
promoter of the endogenous
gene encoding HTFS from a normal individual.
Commercially available liposome transformation kits (e.g., the PERFECT LIPID
TRANSFECTION KIT, available from Invitrogen) allow one with ordinary skill in
the art to deliver
polynucleotides to target cells in culture and require minimal effort to
optimize experimental
parameters. In the alternative, transformation is performed using the calcium
phosphate method
(Graham, F.L. and A.J. Eb (1973) Virology 52:456-467), or by electroporation
(Neumann, E. et al.
(1982) EMBO J. 1:841-845). The introduction of DNA to primary cells requires
modification of these
standardized mammalian transfection protocols.
In another embodiment of the invention, diseases or disorders caused by
genetic defects with
respect to HTFS expression are treated by constructing a retrovirus vector
consisting of (i) the
polynucleotide encoding HTFS under the control of an independent promoter or
the retrovirus long
terminal repeat (LTR) promoter, (ii) appropriate RNA packaging signals, and
(iii) a Rev-responsive
element (RRE) along with additional retrovirus cis-acting RNA sequences and
coding sequences
required for efficient vector propagation. Retrovirus vectors (e.g., PFB and
PFBNEO) are
commercially available (Stratagene) and are based on published data (Riviere,
I. et al. (1995) Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 92:6733-6737), incorporated by reference herein. The
vector is propagated in an
appropriate vector producing cell line (VPCL) that expresses an envelope gene
with a tropism for
receptors on the target cells or a promiscuous envelope protein such as VS Vg
(Armentano, D. et al.
(1987) J. Virol. 61:1647-1650; Bender, M.A. et al. (1987) J. Virol. 61:1639-

("Method for obtaining
retrovirus packaging cell lines producing high transducing efficiency
retroviral supernatant") discloses a
method for obtaining retrovirus packaging cell lines and is hereby
incorporated by reference.
Propagation of retrovirus vectors, transduction of a population of cells
(e.g., CD4+ T-cells), and the
return of transduced cells to a patient are procedures well known to persons
skilled in the art of gene
therapy and have been well documented (Ranga, U. et al. (1997) J. Virol.
71:7020-7029; Bauer, G. et
al. (1997) Blood 89:2259-2267; Bonyhadi, M.L. (1997) J. Virol. 71:4707-4716;

(1998) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 95:1201-1206; Su, L. (1997) Blood 89:2283-
2290).
In the alternative, an adenovirus-based gene therapy delivery system is used
to deliver
polynucleotides encoding HTFS to cells which have one or more genetic
abnormalities with respect to
the expression of HTFS. The construction and packaging of adenovirus-based
vectors are well known
to those with ordinary skill in the art. Replication defective adenovirus
vectors have proven to be
versatile for importing genes encoding immunoregulatory proteins into intact
islets in the pancreas
(Csete, M.E. et al. (1995) Transplantation 27:263-268).. .Potentially useful
adenoviral vectors are
described in U.S. Patent Number 5,707,618 to Armentano ("Adenovirus vectors
for gene therapy"),
hereby incorporated by reference. For adenoviral vectors, see also Antinozzi,
P.A. et al. (1999) Annu.
Rev. Nutr. 19:511-544; and Verma; LM. and N. Somia (1997) Nature 18:389:239-
242, both
incorporated by reference herein.
In another alternative, a herpes-based, gene therapy delivery system is used
to deliver
polynucleotides encoding HTFS to target cells which have one or more genetic
abnormalities with
respect to the expression of HTFS. The use of herpes simplex virus (HSV)-based
vectors may be
especially valuable for introducing HTFS to cells of the central nervous
system, for which HSV has a
tropism. The construction and packaging of herpes-based vectors are well known
to those with
ordinary skill in the art. A replication-competent herpes simplex virus (HSV)
type 1-based vector has
been used to deliver a reporter gene to the eyes of primates (Liu, X. et al.
(1999) Exp. Eye
Res.169:385-395). The construction of a HSV-1 virus vector has also been
disclosed in detail in U.S.
Patent Number 5,804,413 to DeLuca ("Herpes simplex virus strains for gene
transfer"), which is
hereby incorporated by reference. U.S. Patent Number 5,804,413 teaches the use
of recombinant HSV
d92 which consists of a genome containing at least one exogenous gene to be
transferred to a cell under
the control of the appropriate promoter for purposes including human gene
therapy. Also taught by this
patent are the construction and use of recombinant HSV strains deleted for
ICP4, ICP27 and ICP22.
For HSV vectors, see also Goins, W.F. et al. (1999) J. Virol. 73:519-532 and

cloned herpesvirus
41


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
sequences, the generation of recombinant virus following the transfection of
multiple plasmids
containing different segments of the large herpesvirus genomes, the growth and
propagation of
herpesvirus, and the infection of cells with herpesvirus are techniques well
known to those of ordinary
skill in the art.
In another alternative, an alphavirus (positive, single-stranded RNA virus)
vector is used to
deliver polynucleotides encoding HTFS to target cells. The biology of the
prototypic alphavirus,
Semliki Forest Virus (SFV), has been studied extensively and gene transfer
vectors have been based on
the SFV genome (Garoff, H. and K.-J. Li (1998) Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 9:464-
469). During
alphavirus RNA replication, a subgenomic RNA is generated that normally
encodes the viral capsid
proteins. This subgenomic RNA replicates to higher levels than the full-length
genomic RNA, resulting
in the overproduction of capsid proteins relative to the viral proteins with
enzymatic activity (e.g.,
protease and polymerase). Similarly, inserting the coding sequence for HTFS
into the alphavirus
genome in place of the capsid-coding region results in the production of a
large number of HTFS-
coding RNAs and the synthesis of high levels of HTFS in vector transduced
cells. While alphavirus
infection is typically associated with cell lysis within a few days, the
ability to establish a persistent
infection in hamster normal kidney cells (BHK-21) with a variant of Sindbis
virus (SIN) indicates that
the lytic replication of alphaviruses can be altered to suit the needs of the
gene therapy application
(Dryga, S.A. et al. (1997) Virology 228:74-83). The wide host range of
alphaviruses will allow the
introduction of HTFS into a variety of cell types. The specific transduction
of a subset of cells in a
population may require the sorting of cells prior to transduction. The methods
of manipulating
infectious cDNA clones of alphaviruses, performing alphavirus cDNA and RNA
transfections, and
performing alphavirus infections, are well known to those with ordinary skill
in the art.
Oligonucleotides derived from the transcription initiation site, e.g., between
about positions -10
and +10 from the start site, may also be employed to inhibit gene expression.
Similarly, inhibition can
be achieved using triple helix base-pairing methodology. Triple helix pairing
is useful because it causes
inhibition of the ability of the double helix to open sufficiently for the
binding of polymerases,
transcription factors, or regulatory molecules. Recent therapeutic advances
using triplex DNA have
been described in the literature. (See, e.g., Gee, J.E. et al. (1994) in
Huber, B.E. and B.I. Carr,
Molecular and Immunolo~ic Annroaches, Futura Publishing, Mt. Kisco NY, pp. 163-
177.) A
complementary sequence or antisense molecule may also be designed to block
translation of mRNA by
preventing the transcript from binding to ribosomes.
Ribozymes, enzymatic RNA molecules, may also be used to catalyze the specific
cleavage of
RNA. The mechanism of ribozyme action involves sequence-specific hybridization
of the ribozyme
molecule to complementary target RNA, followed by endonucleolytic cleavage.
For example,
42


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
engineered hammerhead motif ribozyme molecules may specifically and
efficiently catalyze
endonucleolytic cleavage of sequences encoding HTFS.
Specific ribozyme cleavage sites within any potential RNA target are initially
identified by
scanning the target molecule for ribozyme cleavage sites, including the
following sequences: GUA,
GUU, and GUC. Once identified, short RNA sequences of between 15 and 20
ribonucleotides,
corresponding to the region of the target gene containing the cleavage site,
may be evaluated for
secondary structural features which may render the oligonucleotide inoperable.
The suitability of
candidate targets may also be evaluated by testing accessibility to
hybridization with complementary
oligonucleotides using ribonuclease protection assays.
Complementary ribonucleic acid molecules and ribozymes of the invention may be
prepared by
any method known in the art for the synthesis of nucleic acid molecules. These
include techniques for
chemically synthesizing oligonucleotides such as solid phase phosphoramidite
chemical synthesis.
Alternatively, RNA molecules may be generated by in vitro and in vivo
transcription of DNA sequences
encoding HTFS. Such DNA sequences may be incorporated into a wide variety of
vectors with suitable
RNA polymerase promoters such as T7 or SP6. Alternatively, these cDNA
constructs that synthesize
complementary RNA, constitutively or inducibly, can be introduced into cell
lines, cells, or tissues.
RNA molecules may be modified to increase intracellular stability and half-
life. Possible
modifications include, but are not limited to, the addition of flanking
sequences at the 5' and/or 3' ends
of the molecule, or the use of phosphorothioate or 2' O-methyl rather than
phosphodiesterase linkages
within the backbone of the molecule. This concept is inherent in the
production of PNAs and can be
extended in all of these molecules by the inclusion of nontraditional bases
such as inosine, queosine, and
wybutosine, as well as acetyl-, methyl-, thio-, and similarly modified forms
of adenine, cytidine,
guanine, thymine, and uridine which are not as easily recognized by endogenous
endonucleases.
An additional embodiment of the invention encompasses a method for screening
for a
compound which is effective in altering expression of a polynucleotide
encoding HTFS. Compounds
which may be effective in altering expression of a specific polynucleotide may
include, but are not
limited to, oligonucleotides, antisense oligonucleotides, triple helix-forming
oligonucleotides,
transcription factors and other polypeptide transcriptional regulators, and
non-macromolecular
chemical entities which are capable of interacting with specific
polynucleotide sequences. Effective
compounds may alter polynucleotide expression by acting as either inhibitors
or promoters of
polynucleotide expression. Thus, in the treatment of disorders associated with
increased HTFS
expression or activity, a compound which specifically inhibits expression of
the polynucleotide
encoding HTFS may be therapeutically useful, and in the treament of disorders
associated with
decreased HTFS expression or activity, a compound which specifically promotes
expression of the
polynucleotide encoding HTFS may be therapeutically useful.

WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
At least one, and up to a plurality, of test compounds may be screened for
effectiveness in
altering expression of a specific polynucleotide. A test compound may be
obtained by any method
commonly known in the art, including chemical modification of a compound known
to be effective in
altering polynucleotide expression; selection from an existing, commercially-
available or proprietary
library of naturally-occurring or non-natural chemical compounds; rational
design of a compound
based on chemical and/or structural properties of the target polynucleotide;
and selection from a
library of chemical compounds created combinatorially or randomly. A sample
comprising a
polynucleotide encoding HTFS is exposed to at least one test compound thus
obtained. The sample
may comprise, for example, an intact or permeabilized cell, or an in vitro
cell-free or reconstituted
biochemical system. Alterations in the expression of a polynucleotide encoding
HTFS are assayed by
any method commonly known in the art. Typically, the expression of a specific
nucleotide is detected
by hybridization with a probe having a nucleotide sequence complementary to
the sequence of the
polynucleotide encoding HTFS. The amount of hybridization may be quantified,
thus forming the
basis for a comparison of the expression of the polynucleodde both with and
without exposure to one
or more test compounds. Detection of a change in the expression of a
polynucleotide exposed to a
test compound indicates that the test compound is effective in altering the
expression of the
polynucleotide. A screen for a compound effective in altering expression of a
specific polynucleotide
can be carried out, for example, using a Schizosaccharomyces pombe gene
expression system (Atkins,
D. et al. (1999) U.S. Patent No. 5,932,435; Arndt, G.M. et al. (2000) Nucleic
Acids Res. 28:E15) or a
human cell line such as HeLa cell (Clarke, M.L. et al. (2000) Biochem.
Biophys. Res. Commun.
268:8-13). A particular embodiment of the present invention involves screening
a combinatorial
library of oligonucleotides (such as deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides,
peptide nucleic acids, and
modified oligonucleotides) for antisense activity against a specific
polynucleotide sequence (Bruice,
T.W. et al. (1997) U.S. Patent No. 5,686,242; Bruice, T.W. et al. (2000) U.S.
Patent No. 6,022,691).
Many methods for introducing vectors into cells or tissues are available and
equally suitable for
use in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo. For ex vivo therapy, vectors may be
introduced into stem cells taken
from the patient and clonally propagated for autologous transplant back into
that same patient.
Delivery by transfection, by liposome injections, or by polycationic amino
polymers may be achieved
using methods which are well known in the art. (See, e.g., Goldman, C.K. et
al. (1997) Nat.
Biotechno1.15:462-466.)
Any of the therapeutic methods described above may be applied to any subject
in need of such
therapy, including, for example, mammals such as humans, dogs, cats, cows,
horses, rabbits, and
monkeys.
An additional embodiment of the invention relates to the administration of a
composition which
generally comprises an active ingredient formulated with a pharmaceutically
acceptable excipient.

Excipients may include, for example, sugars, starches, celluloses, gums, and
proteins. Various
formulations are commonly known and are thoroughly discussed in the latest
edition of ReminQton's
Pharmaceutical Sciences (Maack Publishing, Easton PA). Such compositions may
consist of HTFS,
antibodies to HTFS, and mimetics, agonists, antagonists, or inhibitors of
HTFS.
The compositions utilized in this invention may be administered by any number
of routes
including, but not limited to, oral, intravenous, intramuscular, infra-
arterial, intramedullary, intrathecal,
intraventricular, pulmonary, transdermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal,
intranasal, enteral, topical,
sublingual, or rectal means.
Compositions for pulmonary administration may be prepared in liquid or dry
powder form.
These compositions are generally aerosolized immediately prior to inhalation
by the patient. In the case
of small molecules (e.g. traditional low molecular weight organic drugs),
aerosol delivery of fast-acting
formulations is well-known in the art. In the case of macromolecules (e.g.
larger peptides and proteins),
recent developments in the field of pulmonary delivery via the alveolar region
of the lung have enabled
the practical delivery of drugs such as insulin to blood circulation (see,
e.g., Patton, J.S. et al., U.S.
Patent No. 5,997,848). Pulmonary delivery has the advantage of administration
without needle
injection, and obviates the need for potentially toxic penetration enhancers.
Compositions suitable for use in the invention include compositions wherein
the active
ingredients are contained in an effective amount to achieve the intended
purpose. The determination of
an effective dose is well within the capability of those skilled in the art.
Specialized forms of compositions may be prepared for direct intracellular
delivery of
macromolecules comprising HTFS or fragments thereof. For example, liposome
preparations
containing a cell-impermeable macromolecule may promote cell fusion and
intracellular delivery of the
macromolecule. Alternatively, HTFS or a fragment thereof may be joined to a
short cationic N-
terminal portion from the HIV Tat-1 protein. Fusion proteins thus generated
have been found to
transduce into the cells of all tissues, including the brain, in a mouse model
system (Schwarze, S.R. et
al. (1999) Science 285:1569-1572).
For any compound, the therapeutically effective dose can be estimated
initially either in cell
culture assays, e.g., of neoplastic cells, or in animal models such as mice,
rats, rabbits, dogs, monkeys,
or pigs. An animal model may also be used to determine the appropriate
concentration range and route
of administration. Such information can then be used to determine useful doses
and routes for
administration in humans.
A therapeutically effective dose refers to that amount of active ingredient,
for example HTFS
or fragments thereof, antibodies of HTFS, and agonists, antagonists or
inhibitors of HTFS, which
ameliorates the symptoms or condition. Therapeutic efficacy and toxicity may
be determined by


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or with experimental
animals, such as by
calculating the EDSO (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the
population) or LDSO (the dose
lethal to 50% of the population) statistics. The dose ratio of toxic to
therapeutic effects is the
therapeutic index, which can be expressed as the LDso/EDso ratio. Compositions
which exhibit large
therapeutic indices are preferred. The data obtained from cell culture assays
and animal studies are
used to formulate a range of dosage for human use. The dosage contained in
such compositions is
preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that includes the EDso
with little or no toxicity.
The dosage varies within this range depending upon the dosage form employed,
the sensitivity of the
patient, and the route of administration.
The exact dosage will be determined by the practitioner, in light of factors
related to the subject
requiring treatment. Dosage and administration are adjusted to provide
sufficient levels of the active
moiety or to maintain the desired effect. Factors which may be taken into
account include the severity
of the disease state, the general health of the subject, the age, weight, and
gender of the subject, time
and frequency of administration, drug combination(s), reaction sensitivities,
and response to therapy.
Long-acting compositions may be administered every 3 to 4 days, every week, or
biweekly depending
on the half-life and clearance rate of the particular formulation.
Normal dosage amounts may vary from about 0.1 ~cg to 100,000 ~cg, up to a
total dose of
about 1 gram, depending upon the route of administration. Guidance as to
particular dosages and
methods of delivery is provided in the literature and generally available to
practitioners in the art.
Those skilled in the art will employ different formulations for nucleotides
than for proteins or their
inhibitors. Similarly, delivery of polynucleotides or polypeptides will be
specific to particular cells,
conditions, locations, etc.
DIAGNOSTICS
In another embodiment, antibodies which specifically bind HTFS may be used for
the diagnosis
of disorders characterized by expression of HTFS, or in assays to monitor
patients being treated with
HTFS or agonists, antagonists, or inhibitors of HTFS. Antibodies useful for
diagnostic purposes may
be prepared in the same manner as described above for therapeutics. Diagnostic
assays for HTFS
include methods which utilize the antibody and a label to detect HTFS in human
body fluids or in
extracts of cells or tissues. The antibodies may be used with or without
modification, and may be
labeled by covalent or non-covalent attachment of a reporter molecule. A wide
variety of reporter
molecules, several of which are described above, are known in the art and may
be used.
A variety of protocols for measuring HTFS, including ELISAs, RIAs, and FACS,
are known in
the art and provide a basis for diagnosing altered or abnormal levels of HTFS
expression. Normal or
standard values for HTFS expression are established by combining body fluids
or cell extracts taken
46


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
from normal mammalian subjects, for example, human subjects, with antibody to
HTFS under
conditions suitable for complex formation. The amount of standard complex
formation may be
quantitated by various methods, such as photometric means. Quantities of HTFS
expressed in subject,
control, and disease samples from biopsied tissues are compared with the
standard values. Deviation
between standard and subject values establishes the parameters for diagnosing
disease.
In another embodiment of the invention, the polynucleotides encoding HTFS may
be used for
diagnostic purposes. The polynucleotides which may be used include
oligonucleotide sequences,
complementary RNA and DNA molecules, and PNAs. The polynucleotides may be used
to detect and
quantify gene expression in biopsied tissues in which expression of HTFS may
be correlated with
disease. The diagnostic assay may be used to determine absence, presence, and
excess expression of
HTFS, and to monitor regulation of HTFS levels during therapeutic
intervention.
In one aspect, hybridization with PCR probes which are capable of detecting
polynucleotide
sequences, including genomic sequences, encoding HTFS or closely related
molecules may be used to
identify nucleic acid sequences which encode HTFS. The specificity of the
probe, whether it is made
from a highly specific region, e.g., the 5'regulatory region, or from a less
specific region, e.g., a
conserved motif, and the stringency of the hybridization or amplification will
determine whether the
probe identifies only naturally occurring sequences encoding HTFS, allelic
variants, or related
sequences.
Probes may also be used for the detection of related sequences, and may have
at least 50%
sequence identity to any of the HTFS encoding sequences. The hybridization
probes of the subject
invention may be DNA or RNA and may be derived from the sequence of SEQ ID
N0:43-84 or from
genomic sequences including promoters, enhancers, and introns of the HTFS
gene.
Means for producing specific hybridization probes for DNAs encoding HTFS
include the
cloning of polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS or HTFS derivatives into
vectors for the
production of mRNA probes. Such vectors are known in the art, are commercially
available, and may
be used to synthesize RNA probes in vitro by means of the addition of the
appropriate RNA
polymerases and the appropriate labeled nucleotides. Hybridization probes may
be labeled by a variety
of reporter groups, for example, by radionuclides such as 32P or 355, or by
enzymatic labels, such as
alkaline phosphatase coupled to the probe via avidin/biotin coupling systems,
and the like.
Polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS may be used for the diagnosis of
disorders associated
with expression of HTFS. Examples of such disorders include, but are not
limited to, a cell
proliferative disorder such as actinic keratosis, arteriosclerosis,
atherosclerosis, bursitis, cirrhosis,
hepatitis, mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), myelofibrosis, paroxysmal
nocturnal
hemoglobinuria, polycythemia vera, psoriasis, primary thrombocythemia, and
cancers including
adenocarcinoma, leukemia, lymphoma, melanoma, myeloma, sarcoma,
teratocarcinoma, and, in
47


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
particular, cancers of the adrenal gland, bladder, bone, bone marrow, brain,
breast, cervix, gall
bladder, ganglia, gastrointestinal tract, heart, kidney, liver, lung, muscle,
ovary, pancreas, parathyroid,
penis, prostate, salivary glands, skin, spleen, testis, thymus, thyroid, and
uterus; and an immune
system disorder such as inflammation, actinic keratosis, acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome
(AIDS), Addison's disease, adult respiratory distress syndrome, allergies,
ankylosing spondylitis,
amyloidosis, anemia, arteriosclerosis, asthma, atherosclerosis, autoimmune
hemolytic anemia,
autoimmune thyroiditis, bronchitis, bursitis, cholecystitis, cirrhosis,
contact dermatitis, Crohn's
disease, atopic dermatitis, dermatomyositis, diabetes mellitus, emphysema,
erythroblastosis fetalis,
erythema nodosum, atrophic gastritis, glomerulonephritis, Goodpasture's
syndrome, gout, Graves'
disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria,
hepatitis, hypereosinophilia,
irritable bowel syndrome, episodic lymphopenia with lymphocytotoxins, mixed
connective tissue
disease (MCTD), multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, myocardial or
pericardial inflammation,
myelofibrosis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, pancreatitis, polycythemia vera,
polymyositis, psoriasis,
Reiter's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, Sjogren's syndrome,
systemic anaphylaxis,
systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, primary thrombocythemia,
thrombocytopenic
purpura, ulcerative colitis, uveitis, Werner syndrome, complications of
cancer, hemodialysis, and
extracorporeal circulation, trauma, and hematopoietic cancer including
lymphoma, leukemia, and
myeloma. The polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS may be used in Southern or
northern analysis,
dot blot, or other membrane-based technologies; in PCR technologies; in
dipstick, pin, and multiformat
ELISA-like assays; and in microarrays utilizing fluids or tissues from
patients to detect altered HTFS
expression. Such qualitative or quantitative methods are well known in the
art.
In a particular aspect, the nucleotide sequences encoding HTFS may be useful
in assays that
detect the presence of associated disorders, particularly those mentioned
above. The nucleotide
sequences encoding HTFS may be labeled by standard methods and added to a
fluid or tissue sample
from a patient under conditions suitable for the formation of hybridization
complexes. After a suitable
incubation period, the sample is washed and the signal is quantified and
compared with a standard
value. If the amount of signal in the patient sample is significantly altered
in comparison to a control
sample then the presence of altered levels of nucleotide sequences encoding
HTFS in the sample
indicates the presence of the associated disorder. Such assays may also be
used to evaluate the efficacy
of a particular therapeutic treatment regimen in animal studies, in clinical
trials, or to monitor the
treatment of an individual patient.
In order to provide a basis for the diagnosis of a disorder associated with
expression of HTFS,
a normal or standard profile for expression is established. This may be
accomplished by combining
body fluids or cell extracts taken from normal subjects, either animal or
human, with a sequence, or a
fragment thereof, encoding HTFS, under conditions suitable for hybridization
or amplification.
48


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
Standard hybridization may be quantified by comparing the values obtained from
normal subjects with
values from an experiment in which a known amount of a substantially purified
polynucleotide is used.
Standard values obtained in this manner may be compared with values obtained
from samples from
patients who are symptomatic for a disorder. Deviation from standard values is
used to establish the
presence of a disorder.
Once the presence of a disorder is established and a treatment protocol is
initiated,
hybridization assays may be repeated on a regular basis to determine if the
level of expression in the
patient begins to approximate that which is observed in the normal subject.
The results obtained from
successive assays may be used to show the efficacy of treatment over a period
ranging from several
days to months.
With respect to cancer, the presence of an abnormal amount of transcript
(either under- or
overexpressed) in biopsied tissue from an individual may indicate a
predisposition for the development
of the disease, or may provide a means for detecting the disease prior to the
appearance of actual
clinical symptoms. A more definitive diagnosis of this type may allow health
professionals to employ
preventative measures or aggressive treatment earlier thereby preventing the
development or further
progression of the cancer.
Additional diagnostic uses for oligonucleotides designed from the sequences
encoding HTFS
may involve the use of PCR. These oligomers may be chemically synthesized,
generated enzymatically,
or produced in vitro. Oligomers will preferably contain a fragment of a
polynucleotide encoding HTFS,
or a fragment of a polynucleotide complementary to the polynucleotide encoding
HTFS, and will be
employed under optimized conditions for identification of a specific gene or
condition. Oligomers may
also be employed under less stringent conditions for detection or
quantification of closely related DNA
or RNA sequences.
In a particular aspect, oligonucleotide primers derived from the
polynucleotide sequences
encoding HTFS may be used to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
SNPs are
substitutions, insertions and deletions that are a frequent cause of inherited
or acquired genetic disease
in humans. Methods of SNP detection include, but are not limited to, single-
stranded conformation
polymorphism (SSCP) and fluorescent SSCP (fSSCP) methods. In SSCP,
oligonucleotide primers
derived from the polynucleotide sequences encoding HTFS are used to amplify
DNA using the
polymerise chain reaction (PCR). The DNA may be derived, for example, from
diseased or normal
tissue, biopsy samples, bodily fluids, and the like. SNPs in the DNA cause
differences in the secondary
and tertiary structures of PCR products in single-stranded form, and these
differences are detectable
using gel electrophoresis in non-denaturing gels. In fSCCP, the
oligonucleotide primers are
fluorescently labeled, which allows detection of the amplimers in high-
throughput equipment such as
49


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
DNA sequencing machines. Additionally, sequence database analysis methods,
termed in silico SNP
(isSNP), are capable of identifying polymorphisms by comparing the sequence of
individual
overlapping DNA fragments which assemble into a common consensus sequence.
These computer-
based methods filter out sequence variations due to laboratory preparation of
DNA and sequencing
errors using statistical models and automated analyses of DNA sequence
chromatograms. In the
alternative, SNPs may be detected and characterized by mass spectrometry
using, for example, the high
throughput MASSARRAY system (Sequenom, Inc., San Diego CA).
Methods which may also be used to quantify the expression of HTFS include
radiolabeling or
biotinylating nucleotides, coamplification of a control nucleic acid, and
interpolating results from
standard curves. (See, e.g., Melby, P.C. et al. (1993) J. Immunol. Methods
159:235-244; Duplaa, C. et
al. (1993) Anal. Biochem. 212:229-236.) The speed of quantitation of multiple
samples may be
accelerated by running the assay in a high-throughput format where the
oligomer or polynucleotide of
interest is presented in various dilutions and a spectrophotometric or
colorimetric response gives rapid
quantitation.
In further embodiments, oligonucleotides or longer fragments derived from any
of the
polynucleotide sequences described herein may be used as elements on a
microarray. The microarray
can be used in transcript imaging techniques which monitor the relative
expression levels of large
numbers of genes simultaneously as described in Seilhamer, J.J. et al.,
"Comparative Gene Transcript
Analysis," U.S. Patent No. 5,840,484, incorporated herein by reference. The
microarray may also be
used to identify genetic variants, mutations, and polymorphisms. This
information may be used to
determine gene function, to understand the genetic basis of a disorder, to
diagnose a disorder, to monitor
progression/regression of disease as a function of gene expression, and to
develop and monitor the
activities of therapeutic agents in the treatment of disease. In particular,
this information may be used
to develop a pharmacogenomic profile of a patient in order to select the most
appropriate and effective
treatment regimen for that patient. For example, therapeutic agents which are
highly effective and
display the fewest side effects may be selected for a patient based on his/her
pharmacogenomic profile.
In another embodiment, antibodies specific for HTFS, or HTFS or fragments
thereof may be
used as elements on a microarray. The microarray may be used to monitor or
measure protein-protein
interactions, drug-target interactions, and gene expression profiles, as
described above.
A particular embodiment relates to the use of the polynucleotides of the
present invention to
generate a transcript image of a tissue or cell type. A transcript image
represents the global pattern of
gene expression by a particular tissue or cell type. Global gene expression
patterns are analyzed by
quantifying the number of expressed genes and their relative abundance under
given conditions and at a
given time. (See Seilhamer et al., "Comparative Gene Transcript Analysis,"
U.S. Patent Number


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
5,840,484, expressly incorporated by reference herein.) Thus a transcript
image may be generated by
hybridizing the polynucleotides of the present invention or their complements
to the totality of
transcripts or reverse transcripts of a particular tissue or cell type. In one
embodiment, the
hybridization takes place in high-throughput format, wherein the
polynucleotides of the present
invention or their complements comprise a subset of a plurality of elements on
a microarray. The
resultant transcript image would provide a profile of gene activity.
Transcript images may be generated using transcripts isolated from tissues,
cell lines, biopsies,
or other biological samples. The transcript image may thus reflect gene
expression in vivo, as in the
case of a tissue or biopsy sample, or in vitro, as in the case of a cell line.
Transcript images which profile the expression of the polynucleotides of the
present invention
may also be used in conjunction with in vitro model systems and preclinical
evaluation of
pharmaceuticals, as well as toxicological testing of industrial and naturally-
occurring environmental
compounds. All compounds induce characteristic gene expression patterns,
frequently termed
molecular fingerprints or toxicant signatures, which are indicative of
mechanisms of action and toxicity
(Nuwaysir, E.F. et al. (1999) Mol. Carcinog. 24:153-159; Steiner, S. and N.L.
Anderson (2000)
Toxicol. Lett. 112-113:467-471, expressly incorporated by reference herein).
If a test compound has a
signature similar to that of a compound with known toxicity, it is likely to
share those toxic properties.
These fingerprints or signatures are most useful and refined when they contain
expression information
from a large number of genes and gene families. Ideally, a genome-wide
measurement of expression
provides the highest quality signature. Even genes whose expression is not
altered by any tested
compounds are important as well, as the levels of expression of these genes
are used to normalize the
rest of the expression data. The normalization procedure is useful for
comparison of expression data
after treatment with different compounds. While the assignment of gene
function to elements of a
toxicant signature aids in interpretation of toxicity mechanisms, knowledge of
gene function is not
necessary for the statistical matching of signatures which leads to prediction
of toxicity. (See, for
example, Press Release 00-02 from the National Institute of Environmental
Health Sciences, released
February 29, 2000, available at http://www.niehs.nih.gov/oc/news/toxchip.htm.)
Therefore, it is
important and desirable in toxicological screening using toxicant signatures
to include all expressed
gene sequences.
In one embodiment, the toxicity of a test compound is assessed by treating a
biological sample
containing nucleic acids with the test compound. Nucleic acids that are
expressed in the treated
biological sample are hybridized with one or more probes specific to the
polynucleotides of the
present invention, so that transcript levels corresponding to the
polynucleotides of the present
invention may be quantified. The transcript levels in the treated biological
sample are compared with
levels in an untreated biological sample. Differences in the transcript levels
between the two samples
51


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
are indicative of a toxic response caused by the test compound in the treated
sample.
Another particular embodiment relates to the use of the polypeptide sequences
of the present
invention to analyze the proteome of a tissue or cell type. The term proteome
refers to the global
pattern of protein expression in a particular tissue or cell type. Each
protein component of a proteome
can be subjected individually to further analysis. Proteome expression
patterns, or profiles, are
analyzed by quantifying the number of expressed proteins and their relative
abundance under given
conditions and at a given time. A profile of a cell's proteome may thus be
generated by separating and
analyzing the polypeptides of a particular tissue or cell type. In one
embodiment, the separation is
achieved using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, in which proteins from a
sample are separated by
isoelectric focusing in the first dimension, and then according to molecular
weight by sodium dodecyl
sulfate slab gel electrophoresis in the second dimension (Steiner and
Anderson, supra). The proteins are
visualized in the gel as discrete and uniquely positioned spots, typically by
staining the gel with an agent
such as Coomassie Blue or silver or fluorescent stains. The optical density of
each protein spot is
generally proportional to the level of the protein in the sample. The optical
densities of equivalently
positioned protein spots from different samples, for example, from biological
samples either treated or
untreated with a test compound or therapeutic agent, are compared to identify
any changes in protein
spot density related to the treatment. The proteins in the spots are partially
sequenced using, for
example, standard methods employing chemical or enzymatic cleavage followed by
mass spectrometry.
The identity of the protein in a spot may be determined by comparing its
partial sequence, preferably of
at least 5 contiguous amino acid residues, to the polypeptide sequences of the
present invention. In
some cases, further sequence data may be obtained for definitive protein
identification.
A proteomic profile may also be generated using antibodies specific for HTFS
to quantify the
levels of HTFS expression. In one embodiment, the antibodies are used as
elements on a microarray,
and protein expression levels are quantified by exposing the microarray to the
sample and detecting the
levels of protein bound to each array element (Lueking, A. et al. (1999) Anal.
Biochem. 270:103-111;
Mendoze, L.G. et al. (1999) Biotechniques 27:778-788). Detection may be
performed by a variety of
methods known in the art, for example, by reacting the proteins in the sample
with a thiol- or amino-
reactive fluorescent compound and detecting the amount of fluorescence bound
at each array element.
Toxicant signatures at the proteome level are also useful for toxicological
screening, and should
be analyzed in parallel with toxicant signatures at the transcript level.
There is a poor correlation
between transcript and protein abundances for some proteins in some tissues
(Anderson, N.L. and J.
Seilhamer (1997) Electrophoresis 18:533-537), so proteome toxicant signatures
may be useful in the
analysis of compounds which do not significantly affect the transcript image,
but which alter the
proteomic profile. In addition, the analysis of transcripts in body fluids is
difficult, due to rapid
52


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
degradation of mRNA, so proteomic profiling may be more reliable and
informative in such cases.
In another embodiment, the toxicity of a test compound is assessed by treating
a biological
sample containing proteins with the test compound. Proteins that are expressed
in the treated biological
sample are separated so that the amount of each protein can be quantified. The
amount of each protein
is compared to the amount of the corresponding protein in an untreated
biological sample. A difference
in the amount of protein between the two samples is indicative of a toxic
response to the test compound
in the treated sample. Individual proteins are identified by sequencing the
amino acid residues of the
individual proteins and comparing these partial sequences to the polypeptides
of the present invention.
In another embodiment, the toxicity of a test compound is assessed by treating
a biological
sample containing proteins with the test compound. Proteins from the
biological sample are incubated
with antibodies specific to the polypeptides of the present invention. The
amount of protein recognized
by the antibodies is quantified. The amount of protein in the treated
biological sample is compared with
the amount in an untreated biological sample. A difference in the amount of
protein between the two
samples is indicative of a toxic response to the test compound in the treated
sample.
Microarrays may be prepared, used, and analyzed using methods known in the
art. (See, e.g.,
Brennan, T.M. et al. (1995) U.S. Patent No. 5,474,796; Schena, M. et al.
(1996) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
USA 93:10614-10619; Baldeschweiler et al. (1995) PCT application W095/251116;
Shalom D. et al.
(1995) PCT application W095/35505; Heller, R.A. et al. (1997) Proc. Natl.
Acad. Sci. USA 94:2150-
2155; and Heller, M.J. et al. (1997) U.S. Patent No. 5,605,662.) Various types
of microarrays are well
known and thoroughly described in DNA Microarrays: A Practical Approach, M.
Schena, ed. (1999)
Oxford University Press, London, hereby expressly incorporated by reference.
In another embodiment of the invention, nucleic acid sequences encoding HTFS
may be used to
generate hybridization probes useful in mapping the naturally occurring
genomic sequence. Either
coding or noncoding sequences may be used, and in some instances, noncoding
sequences may be
preferable over coding sequences. For example, conservation of a coding
sequence among members
of a multi-gene family may potentially cause undesired cross hybridization
during chromosomal
mapping. The sequences may be mapped to a particular chromosome, to a specific
region of a
chromosome, or to artificial chromosome constructions, e.g., human artificial
chromosomes (HACs),
yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs), bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs),
bacterial P1
constructions, or single chromosome cDNA libraries. (See, e.g., Harrington,
J.J. et al. (1997) Nat.
Genet. 15:345-355; Price, C.M. (1993) Blood Rev. 7:127-134; and Trask, B.J.
(1991) Trends Genet.
7:149-154.) Once mapped, the nucleic acid sequences of the invention may be
used to develop genetic
linkage maps, for example, which correlate the inheritance of a disease state
with the inheritance of a
particular chromosome region or restriction fragment length polymorphism
(RFLP). (See, e.g.,
Larder, E.S. and D. Botstein (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83:7353-7357.)

Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) may be correlated with other physical
and genetic map
data. (See, e.g., Heinz-Ulrich, et al. (1995) in Meyers, supra, pp. 965-968.)
Examples of genetic map
data can be found in various scientific journals or at the Online Mendelian
Inheritance in Man (OMIM)
World Wide Web site. Correlation between the location of the gene encoding
HTFS on a physical map
and a specific disorder, or a predisposition to a specific disorder, may help
def ne the region of DNA
associated with that disorder and thus may further positional cloning efforts.
In situ hybridization of chromosomal preparations and physical mapping
techniques, such as
linkage analysis using established chromosomal markers, may be used for
extending genetic maps.
Often the placement of a gene on the chromosome of another mammalian species,
such as mouse, may
reveal associated markers even if the exact chromosomal locus is not known.
This information is
valuable to investigators searching for disease genes using positional cloning
or other gene discovery
techniques. Once the gene or genes responsible for a disease or syndrome have
been crudely localized
by genetic linkage to a particular genomic region, e.g., ataxia-telangiectasia
to 11q22-23, any sequences
mapping to that area may represent associated or regulatory genes for further
investigation. (See, e.g.,
Gatti, R.A. et al. (1988) Nature 336:577-580.) The nucleotide sequence of the
instant invention may
also be used to detect differences in the chromosomal location due to
translocation, inversion, etc.,
among normal, carrier, or affected individuals.
In another embodiment of the invention, HTFS, its catalytic or immunogenic
fragments, or
oligopeptides thereof can be used for screening libraries of compounds in any
of a variety of drug
screening techniques. The fragment employed in such screening may be free in
solution, affixed to a
solid support, borne on a cell surface, or located intracellularly. The
formation of binding complexes
between HTFS and the agent being tested may be measured.
Another technique for drug screening provides for high throughput screening of
compounds
having suitable binding affinity to the protein of interest. (See, e.g.,
Geysen, et al. (1984) PCT
application W084/03564.) In this method, large numbers of different small test
compounds are
synthesized on a solid substrate. The test compounds are reacted with HTFS, or
fragments thereof, and
washed. Bound HTFS is then detected by methods well known in the art. Purified
HTFS can also be
coated directly onto plates for use in the aforementioned drug screening
techniques. Alternatively,
non-neutralizing antibodies can be used to capture the peptide and immobilize
it on a solid support.
In another embodiment, one may use competitive drug screening assays in which
neutralizing
antibodies capable of binding HTFS specifically compete with a test compound
for binding HTFS. In
this manner, antibodies can be used to detect the presence of any peptide
which shares one or more
antigenic determinants with HTFS.
In additional embodiments, the nucleotide sequences which encode HTFS may be
used in any
54


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
molecular biology techniques that have yet to be developed, provided the new
techniques rely on
properties of nucleotide sequences that are currently known, including, but
not limited to, such
properties as the triplet genetic code and specific base pair interactions.
Without further elaboration, it is believed that one skilled in the art can,
using the preceding
description, utilize the present invention to its fullest extent. The
following preferred specific
embodiments are, therefore, to be construed as merely illustrative, and not
limitative of the remainder
of the disclosure in any way whatsoever.
The disclosures of all patents, applications and publications, mentioned above
and below, in
particular U.S. Serial No. 60/163,595, are hereby expressly incorporated by
reference.
EXAMPLES
I. ~ Construction of cDNA Libraries
RNA was purchased from Clontech or isolated from tissues described in Table 4.
Some tissues
were homogenized and lysed in guanidinium isothiocyanate, while others were
homogenized and lysed
in phenol or in a suitable mixture of denaturants, such as TRIZOL (Life
Technologies), a monophasic
solution of phenol and guanidine isothiocyanate. The resulting lysates were
centrifuged over CsCl
cushions or extracted with chloroform. RNA was precipitated from the lysates
with either isopropanol
or sodium acetate and ethanol, or by other routine methods.
Phenol extraction and precipitation of RNA were repeated as necessary to
increase RNA
purity. In some cases, RNA was treated with DNase. For most libraries,
poly(A+) RNA was isolated
using oligo d(T)-coupled paramagnetic particles (Promega), OLIGOTEX latex
particles (QIAGEN,
Chatsworth CA), or an OLIGOTEX mRNA purification kit (QIAGEN). Alternatively,
RNA was
isolated directly from tissue lysates using other RNA isolation kits, e.g.,
the POLY(A)PURE mRNA
purification kit (Ambion, Austin TX).
In some cases, Stratagene was provided with RNA and constructed the
corresponding cDNA
libraries. Otherwise, cDNA was synthesized and cDNA libraries were constructed
with the UNIZAP
vector system (Stratagene) or SUPERSCRIPT plasmid system (Life Technologies),
using the
recommended procedures or similar methods known in the art. (See, e.g.,
Ausubel, 1997, su ra, units
5.1-6.6.) Reverse transcription was initiated using oligo d(T) or random
primers. Synthetic
oligonucleotide adapters were ligated to double stranded cDNA, and the cDNA
was digested with the
appropriate restriction enzyme or enzymes. For most libraries, the cDNA was
size-selected (300-1000
bp) using SEPHACRYL S1000, SEPHAROSE CL2B, or SEPHAROSE CL4B column
chromatography (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) or preparative agarose gel
electrophoresis. cDNAs
were ligated into compatible restriction enzyme sites of the polylinker of a
suitable plasmid, e.g.,
PBLUESCRIPT plasmid (Stratagene), PSPORT1 plasmid (Life Technologies),
pcDNA2.1 plasmid


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
(Invitrogen, Carlsbad CA), or pINCY plasmid (Incyte Genomics, Palo Alto CA).
Recombinant
plasmids were transformed into competent E. coli cells including XL1-Blue, XL1-
BlueMRF, or SOLR
from Stratagene or DHSa, DH10B, or ElectroMAX DHlOB from Life Technologies.
II. Isolation of cDNA Clones
Plasmids obtained as described in Example I were recovered from host cells by
in vivo excision
using the UNIZAP vector system (Stratagene) or by cell lysis. Plasmids were
purified using at least
one of the following: a Magic or WIZARD Minipreps DNA purification system
(Promega); an AGTC
Miniprep purification kit (Edge Biosystems, Gaithersburg MD); and QIAWELL 8
Plasmid, QIAWELL
8 Plus Plasmid, QIAWELL 8 Ultra Plasmid purification systems or the R.E.A.L.
PREP 96 plasmid
purification kit from QIAGEN. Following precipitation, plasmids were
resuspended in 0.1 ml of
distilled water and stored, with or without lyophilization, at 4°C.
Alternatively, plasmid DNA was amplified from host cell lysates using direct
link PCR in a
high-throughput format (Rao, V.B. (1994) Anal. Biochem. 216:1-14). Host cell
lysis and thermal
cycling steps were carried out in a single reaction mixture. Samples were
processed and stored in 384-
well plates, and the concentration of amplified plasmid DNA was quantified
fluorometrically using
PICOGREEN dye (Molecular Probes, Eugene OR) and a FLUOROSKAN II fluorescence
scanner
(Labsystems Oy, Helsinki, Finland).
III. Sequencing and Analysis
Incyte cDNA recovered in plasmids as described in Example II were sequenced as
follows.
Sequencing reactions were processed using standard methods or high-throughput
instrumentation
such as the ABI CATALYST 800 (PE Biosystems) thermal cycler or the PTC-200
thermal cycler (MJ
Research) in conjunction with the HYDRA microdispenser (Robbins Scientific) or
the MICROLAB
2200 (Hamilton) liquid transfer system. cDNA sequencing reactions were
prepared using reagents
provided by Amersham Pharmacia Biotech or supplied in ABI sequencing kits such
as the ABI
PRISM BIGDYE Terminator cycle sequencing ready reaction kit (PE Biosystems).
Electrophoretic
separation of cDNA sequencing reactions and detection of labeled
polynucleotides were carried out
using the MEGABACE 1000 DNA sequencing system (Molecular Dynamics); the ABI
PRISM 373 or
377 sequencing system (PE Biosystems) in conjunction with standard ABI
protocols and base calling
software; or other sequence analysis systems known in the art. Reading frames
within the cDNA
sequences were identified using standard methods (reviewed in Ausubel, 1997,
supra, unit 7.7). Some
of the cDNA sequences were selected for extension using the techniques
disclosed in Example VI.
The polynucleotide sequences derived from cDNA sequencing were assembled and
analyzed
using a combination of software programs which utilize algorithms well known
to those skilled in the
art. Table 5 summarizes the tools, programs, and algorithms used and provides
applicable descriptions,
56


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
references, and threshold parameters. The first column of Table 5 shows the
tools, programs, and
algorithms used, the second column provides brief descriptions thereof, the
third column presents
appropriate references, all of which are incorporated by reference herein in
their entirety, and the fourth
column presents, where applicable, the scores, probability values, and other
parameters used to evaluate
the strength of a match between two sequences (the higher the score, the
greater the homology between
two sequences). Sequences were analyzed using MACDNASIS PRO software (Hitachi
Software
Engineering, South San Francisco CA) and LASERGENE software (DNASTAR).
Polynucleotide and
polypeptide sequence alignments were generated using the default parameters
specified by the clustal
algorithm as incorporated into the MEGALIGN multisequence alignment program
(DNASTAR), which
also calculates the percent identity between aligned sequences.
The polynucleotide sequences were validated by removing vector, linker, and
polyA sequences
and by masking ambiguous bases, using algorithms and programs based on BLAST,
dynamic
programing, and dinucleotide nearest neighbor analysis. The sequences were
then queried against a
selection of public databases such as the GenBank primate, rodent, mammalian,
vertebrate, and
eukaryote databases, and BLOCKS, PRINTS, DOMO, PRODOM, and PFAM to acquire
annotation
using programs based on BLAST, FASTA, and BLIMPS. The sequences were assembled
into full
length polynucleotide sequences using programs based on Phred, Phrap, and
Conned, and were screened
for open reading frames using programs based on GeneMark, BLAST, and FASTA.
The full length
polynucleotide sequences were translated to derive the corresponding full
length amino acid sequences,
and these full length sequences were subsequently analyzed by querying against
databases such as the
GenBank databases (described above), Swissl?rot, BLOCKS, PRINTS, DOMO, PRODOM,
Prosite,
and Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based protein family databases such as PFAM. HMM
is a
probabilistic approach which analyzes consensus primary structures of gene
families. (See, e.g.,
Eddy, S.R. (1996) Curr. Opin. Struct. Biol. 6:361-365.)
The programs described above for the assembly and analysis of full length
polynucleotide and
amino acid sequences were also used to identify polynucleotide sequence
fragments from SEQ ID
N0:43-84. Fragments from about 20 to about 4000 nucleotides which are useful
in hybridization and
amplification technologies were described in The Invention section above.
IV. Analysis of Polynucleotide Expression
Northern analysis is a laboratory technique used to detect the presence of a
transcript of a gene
and involves the hybridization of a labeled nucleotide sequence to a membrane
on which RNAs from a
particular cell type or tissue have been bound. (See, e.g., Sambrook, supra,
ch. 7; Ausubel, 1995,
supra, ch. 4 and 16.)
Analogous computer techniques applying BLAST were used to search for identical
or related
57


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
molecules in cDNA databases such as GenBank or LIFESEQ (Incyte Genomics). This
analysis is
much faster than multiple membrane-based hybridizations. In addition, the
sensitivity of the computer
search can be modified to determine whether any particular match is
categorized as exact or similar.
The basis of the search is the product score, which is defined as:
BLAST Score x Percent Identitv
x minimum {length(Seq. 1), length(Seq. 2)}
The product score takes into account both the degree of similarity between two
sequences and the length
of the sequence match. The product score is a normalized value between 0 and
100, and is calculated
as follows: the BLAST score is multiplied by the percent nucleotide identity
and the product is divided
by (5 times the length of the shorter of the two sequences). The BLAST score
is calculated by
assigning a score of +5 for every base that matches in a high-scoring segment
pair (HSP), and -4 for
every mismatch. Two sequences may share more than one HSP (separated by gaps).
If there is more
than one HSP, then the pair with the highest BLAST score is used to calculate
the product score. The
product score represents a balance between fractional overlap and quality in a
BLAST alignment. For
example, a product score of 100 is produced only for 100% identity over the
entire length of the shorter
of the two sequences being compared. A product score of 70 is produced either
by 100% identity and
70% overlap at one end, or by 88% identity and 100% overlap at the other. A
product score of 50 is
produced either by 100% identity and 50% overlap at one end, or 79% identity
and 100% overlap.
The results of northern analyses are reported as a percentage distribution of
libraries in which
the transcript encoding HTFS occurred. Analysis involved the categorization of
cDNA libraries by
organ/tissue and disease. The organ/tissue categories included cardiovascular,
dermatologic,
developmental, endocrine, gastrointestinal, hematopoietic/immune,
musculoskeletal, nervous,
reproductive, and urologic. The disease/condition categories included cancer,
inflammation, trauma,
cell proliferation, neurological, and pooled. For each category, the number of
libraries expressing the
sequence of interest was counted and divided by the total number of libraries
across all categories.
Percentage values of tissue-specific and disease- or condition-specific
expression are reported in Table
3.
V. Chromosomal Mapping of HTFS Encoding Polynucleotides
The cDNA sequences which were used to assemble SEQ ID N0:43-84 were compared
with
sequences from the Incyte LIFESEQ database and public domain databases using
BLAST and other
implementations of the Smith-Waterman algorithm. Sequences from these
databases that matched
SEQ ID N0:43-84 were assembled into clusters of contiguous and overlapping
sequences using
assembly algorithms such as Phrap (Table 5). Radiation hybrid and genetic
mapping data available
from public resources such as the Stanford Human Genome Center (SHGC),
Whitehead Institute for
58


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
Genome Research (WIGR), and G~n6thon were used to determine if any of the
clustered sequences
had been previously mapped. Inclusion of a mapped sequence in a cluster
resulted in the assignment
of all sequences of that cluster, including its particular SEQ ID NO:, to that
map location.
The genetic map locations of SEQ ID N0:44, 46, 48, 49, 52, 59, 60, 62, 68, 78,
85, and 86
are described in The Invention as ranges, or intervals, of human chromosomes.
More than one map
location is reported for SEQ ID N0:59, 78, 85, and 86, indicating that
previously mapped sequences
having similarity, but not complete identity, to SEQ ID N0:59, 78, 85, and 86
were assembled into
their respective clusters. The map position of an interval, in centiMorgans,
is measured relative to the
terminus of the chromosome's p-arm. (The centiMorgan (cM) is a unit of
measurement based on
recombination frequencies between chromosomal markers. On average, 1 cM is
roughly equivalent
to 1 megabase (Mb) of DNA in humans, although this can vary widely due to hot
and cold spots of
recombination.) The cM distances are based on genetic markers mapped by
G6n6thon which provide
boundaries for radiation hybrid markers whose sequences were included in each
of the clusters.
Human genome maps and other resources available to the public, such as the
NCBI "GeneMap'99"
World Wide Web site (http:llwv:w.nc:bi.nlm.nih.~ov; eenemapll. can be employed
to determine if
previously identified disease genes map within or in proximity to the
intervals indicated above.
VI. Extension of HTFS Encoding Polynucleotides
The full length nucleic acid sequences of SEQ ID N0:43-84 were produced by
extension of an
appropriate fragment of the full length molecule using oligonucleotide primers
designed from this
fragment. One primer was synthesized to initiate 5' extension of the known
fragment, and the other
primer, to initiate 3' extension of the known fragment. The initial primers
were designed using OLIGO
4.06 software (National Biosciences), or another appropriate program, to be
about 22 to 30 nucleotides
in length, to have a GC content of about 50% or more, and to anneal to the
target sequence at
temperatures of about 68 °C to about 72°C. Any stretch of
nucleotides which would result in hairpin
structures and primer-primer dimerizations was avoided.
Selected human cDNA libraries were used to extend the sequence. If more than
one extension
was necessary or desired, additional or nested sets of primers were designed.
High fidelity amplification was obtained by PCR using methods well known in
the art. PCR
was performed in 96-well plates using the PTC-200 thermal cycler (MJ Research,
Ine.). The reaction
mix contained DNA template, 200 nmol of each primer, reaction buffer
containing Mg2+, (NH4)ZS04,
and (3-mercaptoethanol, Taq DNA polymerase (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech),
ELONGASE enzyme
(Life Technologies), and Pfu DNA polymerase (Stratagene), with the following
parameters for primer
pair PCI A and PCI B: Step 1: 94°C, 3 min; Step 2: 94°C, 15 sec;
Step 3: 60°C, 1 min; Step 4: 68°C,
2 min; Step 5: Steps 2, 3, and 4 repeated 20 times; Step 6: 68°C, 5
min; Step 7: storage at 4°C. In the
alternative, the parameters for primer pair T7 and SK+ were as follows: Step
1: 94°C, 3 min; Step 2:
59


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
94°C, 15 sec; Step 3: 57°C, 1 min; Step 4: 68 °C, 2 min;
Step 5: Steps 2, 3, and 4 repeated 20 times;
Step 6: 68°C, 5 min; Step 7: storage at 4°C.
The concentration of DNA in each well was determined by dispensing 100 ~1
PICOGREEN
quantitation reagent (0.25% (v/v) PICOGREEN; Molecular Probes, Eugene OR)
dissolved in 1X TE
and 0.5 ~1 of undiluted PCR product into each well of an opaque fluorimeter
plate (Corning Costar,
Acton MA), allowing the DNA to bind to the reagent. The plate was scanned in a
Fluoroskan II
(Labsystems Oy, Helsinki, Finland) to measure the fluorescence of the sample
and to quantify the
concentration of DNA. A 5 ~1 to 10 ~1 aliquot of the reaction mixture was
analyzed by electrophoresis
on a 1 % agarose mini-gel to determine which reactions were successful in
extending the sequence.
The extended nucleotides were desalted and concentrated, transferred to 384-
well plates,
digested with CviJI cholera virus endonuclease (Molecular Biology Research,
Madison WI), and
sonicated or sheared prior to religation into pUC 18 vector (Amersham
Pharmacia Biotech). For
shotgun sequencing, the digested nucleotides were separated on low
concentration (0.6 to 0.8%) agarose
gels, fragments were excised, and agar digested with Agar ACE (Promega).
Extended clones were
religated using T4 ligase (New England Biolabs, Beverly MA) into pUC 18 vector
(Amersham
Pharmacia Biotech), treated with Pfu DNA polymerase (Stratagene) to fill-in
restriction site overhangs,
and transfected into competent E. coli cells. Transformed cells were selected
on antibiotic-containing
media, and individual colonies were picked and cultured overnight at 37
°C in 384-well plates in LB/2x
carb liquid media.
The cells were lysed, and DNA was amplified by PCR using Taq DNA polymerase
(Amersham
Pharmacia Biotech) and Pfu DNA polymerase (Stratagene) with the following
parameters: Step 1:
94°C, 3 min; Step 2: 94°C, 15 sec; Step 3: 60°C, 1 min;
Step 4: 72°C, 2 min; Step 5: steps 2, 3, and 4
repeated 29 times; Step 6: 72°C, 5 min; Step 7: storage at 4°C.
DNA was quantified by PICOGREEN
reagent (Molecular Probes) as described above. Samples with low DNA recoveries
were reamplified
using the same conditions as described above. Samples were diluted with 20%
dimethysulfoxide (1:2,
v/v), and sequenced using DYENAMIC energy transfer sequencing primers and the
DYENAMIC
DIRECT kit (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) or the ABI PRISM BIGDYE Terminator
cycle
sequencing ready reaction kit (PE Biosystems).
In like manner, the polynucleotide sequences of SEQ ID N0:43-84 are used to
obtain 5'
regulatory sequences using the procedure above, along with oligonucleotides
designed for such
extension, and an appropriate genomic library.
VII. Labeling and Use of Individual Hybridization Probes
Hybridization probes derived from SEQ ID N0:43-84 are employed to screen
cDNAs, genomic
DNAs, or mRNAs. Although the labeling of oligonucleotides, consisting of about
20 base pairs, is


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
specifically described, essentially the same procedure is used with larger
nucleotide fragments.
Oligonucleotides are designed using state-of the-art software such as OLIGO
4.06 software (National
Biosciences) and labeled by combining 50 pmol of each oligomer, 250 ~cCi of
[~y-32P] adenosine
triphosphate (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech), and T4 polynucleotide kinase
(DuPont NEN, Boston
MA). The labeled oligonucleotides are substantially purified using a SEPHADEX
G-25 superfine size
exclusion dextran bead column (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). An aliquot
containing 10' counts per
minute of the labeled probe is used in a typical membrane-based hybridization
analysis of human
genomic DNA digested with one of the following endonucleases: Ase I, Bgl II,
Eco RI, Pst I, Xba I, or
Pvu II (DuPont NEN).
The DNA from each digest is fractionated on a 0.7% agarose gel and transferred
to nylon
membranes (Nytran Plus, Schleicher & Schuell, Durham NH). Hybridization is
carried out for 16
hours at 40°C. To remove nonspecific signals, blots are sequentially
washed at room temperature
under conditions of up to, for example, 0.1 x saline sodium citrate and 0.5%
sodium dodecyl sulfate.
Hybridization patterns are visualized using autoradiography or an alternative
imaging means and
compared.
VIII. Microarrays
The linkage or synthesis of array elements upon a microarray can be achieved
utilizing
photolithography, piezoelectric printing (ink jet printing, See, e.g.,
Baldeschweiler, supra), mechanical
microspotting technologies, and derivatives thereof. The substrate in each of
the aforementioned
technologies should be uniform and solid with a non-porous surface (Schena
(1999), supra). Suggested
substrates include silicon, silica, glass slides, glass chips, and silicon
wafers. Alternatively, a procedure
analogous to a dot or slot blot may also be used to arrange and link elements
to the surface of a
substrate using thermal, UV, chemical, or mechanical bonding procedures. A
typical array may be
produced using available methods and machines well known to those of ordinary
skill in the art and may
contain any appropriate number of elements. (See, e.g., Schena, M. et al.
(1995) Science 270:467-470;
Shalom D. et al. (1996) Genome Res. 6:639-645; Marshall, A. and J. Hodgson
(1998) Nat. Biotechnol.
16:27-31.)
Full length cDNAs, Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs), or fragments or oligomers
thereof may
comprise the elements of the microarray. Fragments or oligomers suitable for
hybridization can be
selected using software well known in the art such as LASERGENE software
(DNASTAR). The array
elements are hybridized with polynucleotides in a biological sample. The
polynucleotides in the
biological sample are conjugated to a fluorescent label or other molecular tag
for ease of detection.
After hybridization, nonhybridized nucleotides from the biological sample are
removed, and a
fluorescence scanner is used to detect hybridization at each array element.
Alternatively, laser
61


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
desorbtion and mass spectrometry may be used for detection of hybridization.
The degree of
complementarity and the relative abundance of each polynucleotide which
hybridizes to an element on
the microarray may be assessed. In one embodiment, microarray preparation and
usage is described in
detail below.
Tissue or Cell Sample Preparation
Total RNA is isolated from tissue samples using the guanidinium thiocyanate
method and
poly(A)+ RNA is purified using the oligo-(dT) cellulose method. Each poly(A)+
RNA sample is
reverse transcribed using MMLV reverse-transcriptase, 0.05 pg/~.~1 oligo-(dT)
primer (2lmer), 1X first
strand buffer, 0.03 units/Nl RNase inhibitor, 500 ECM dATP, 500 ~tM dGTP, 500
~M dTTP, 40 ~M
dCTP, 40 NM dCTP-Cy3 (BDS) or dCTP-Cy5 (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). The
reverse
transcription reaction is performed in a 25 ml volume containing 200 ng
poly(A)+ RNA with
GEMBRIGHT kits (Incyte). Specific control poly(A)+ RNAs are synthesized by in
vitro transcription
from non-coding yeast genomic DNA. After incubation at 37 °C for 2 hr,
each reaction sample (one
with Cy3 and another with Cy5 labeling) is treated with 2.5 ml of O.SM sodium
hydroxide and
incubated for 20 minutes at 85 °C to the stop the reaction and degrade
the RNA. Samples are purified
using two successive CHROMA SPIN 30 gel filtration spin columns (CLONTECH
Laboratories, Inc.
(CLONTECH), Palo Alto CA) and after combining, both reaction samples are
ethanol precipitated
using 1 ml of glycogen (1 mg/ml), 60 ml sodium acetate, and 300 ml of 100%
ethanol. The sample is
then dried to completion using a SpeedVAC (Savant Instruments Inc., Holbrook
NY) and
resuspended in 14 Ed SX SSC/0.2% SDS.
Microarray Preparation
Sequences of the present invention are used to generate array elements. Each
array element is
amplified from bacterial cells containing vectors with cloned cDNA inserts.
PCR amplification uses
primers complementary to the vector sequences flanking the cDNA insert. Array
elements are
amplified in thirty cycles of PCR from an initial quantity of 1-2 ng to a
final quantity greater than 5
fig. Amplified array elements are then purified using SEPHACRYL-400 (Amersham
Pharmacia
Biotech).
Purified array elements are immobilized on polymer-coated glass slides. Glass
microscope
slides (Corning) are cleaned by ultrasound in 0.1 % SDS and acetone, with
extensive distilled water
washes between and after treatments. Glass slides are etched in 4%
hydrofluoric acid (VWR
Scientific Products Corporation (VWR), West Chester PA), washed extensively in
distilled water, and
coated with 0.05% aminopropyl silane (Sigma) in 95% ethanol. Coated slides are
cured in a 110°C
oven.
Array elements are applied to the coated glass substrate using a procedure
described in US
Patent No. 5,807,522, incorporated herein by reference. 1 Erl of the array
element DNA, at an average
62


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
concentration of 100 ng/Nl, is loaded into the open capillary printing element
by a high-speed robotic
apparatus. The apparatus then deposits about 5 n1 of array element sample per
slide.
Microarrays are UV-crosslinked using a STRATALINKER UV-crosslinker
(Stratagene).
Microarrays are washed at room temperature once in 0.2% SDS and three times in
distilled water.
Non-specific binding sites are blocked by incubation of microarrays in 0.2%
casein in phosphate
buffered saline (PBS) (Tropix, Inc., Bedford MA) for 30 minutes at 60
°C followed by washes in
0.2% SDS and distilled water as before.
Hybridization
Hybridization reactions contain 9 Nl of sample mixture consisting of 0.2 ~g
each of Cy3 and
Cy5 labeled cDNA synthesis products in SX SSC, 0.2% SDS hybridization buffer.
The sample
mixture is heated to 65 °C for 5 minutes and is aliquoted onto the
microarray surface and covered with
an 1.8 cm2 coverslip. The arrays are transferred to a waterproof chamber
having a cavity just slightly
larger than a microscope slide. The chamber is kept at 100% humidity
internally by the addition of
140 ~.Q of SX SSC in a corner of the chamber. The chamber containing the
arrays is incubated for
about 6.5 hours at 60 °C. The arrays are washed for 10 min at 45
°C in a first wash buffer (1X SSC,
0.1 % SDS), three times for 10 minutes each at 45 °C in a second wash
buffer (0.1X SSC), and dried.
Detection
Reporter-labeled hybridization complexes are detected with a microscope
equipped with an
Innova 70 mixed gas 10 W laser (Coherent, Inc., Santa Clara CA) capable of
generating spectral lines
at 488 nm for excitation of Cy3 and at 632 nm for excitation of CyS. The
excitation laser light is
focused on the array using a 20X microscope objective (Nikon, Inc., Melville
NY). The slide
containing the array is placed on a computer-controlled X-Y stage on the
microscope and raster-
scanned past the objective. The 1.8 cm x 1.8 cm array used in the present
example is scanned with a
resolution of 20 micrometers.
In two separate scans, a mixed gas multiline laser excites the two
fluorophores sequentially.
Emitted light is split, based on wavelength, into two photomultiplier tube
detectors (PMT 81477,
Hamamatsu Photonics Systems, Bridgewater NJ) corresponding to the two
fluorophores. Appropriate
filters positioned between the array and the photomultiplier tubes are used to
filter the signals. The
emission maxima of the fluorophores used are 565 nm for Cy3 and 650 nm for
CyS. Each array is
typically scanned twice, one scan per fluorophore using the appropriate
filters at the laser source,
although the apparatus is capable of recording the spectra from both
fluorophores simultaneously.
The sensitivity of the scans is typically calibrated using the signal
intensity generated by a
cDNA control species added to the sample mixture at a known concentration. A
specific location on
the array contains a complementary DNA sequence, allowing the intensity of the
signal at that
location to be correlated with a weight ratio of hybridizing species of
1:100,000. When two samples
63


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
from different sources (e.g., representing test and control cells), each
labeled with a different
fluorophore, are hybridized to a single array for the purpose of identifying
genes that are differentially
expressed, the calibration is done by labeling samples of the calibrating cDNA
with the two
fluorophores and adding identical amounts of each to the hybridization
mixture.
The output of the photomultiplier tube is digitized using a 12-bit RTI-835H
analog-to-digital
(A/D) conversion board (Analog Devices, Inc., Norwood MA) installed in an IBM-
compatible PC
computer. The digitized data are displayed as an image where the signal
intensity is mapped using a
linear 20-color transformation to a pseudocolor scale ranging from blue (low
signal) to red (high
signal). The data is also analyzed quantitatively. Where two different
fluorophores are excited and
measured simultaneously, the data are first corrected for optical crosstalk
(due to overlapping
emission spectra) between the fluorophores using each fluorophore's emission
spectrum.
. A grid is superimposed over the fluorescence signal image such that the
signal from each spot
is centered in each element of the grid. The fluorescence signal within each
element is then integrated
to obtain a numerical value corresponding to the average intensity of the
signal. The software used
for signal analysis is the GEMTOOLS gene expression analysis program (Incyte).
IX. Complementary Polynucleotides
Sequences complementary to the HTFS-encoding sequences, or any parts thereof,
are used to
detect, decrease, or inhibit expression of naturally occurring HTFS. Although
use of oligonucleotides
comprising from about 15 to 30 base pairs is described, essentially the same
procedure is used with
smaller or with larger sequence fragments. Appropriate oligonucleotides are
designed using OLIGO
4.06 software (National Biosciences) and the coding sequence of HTFS. To
inhibit transcription, a
complementary oligonucleotide is designed from the most unique 5' sequence and
used to prevent
promoter binding to the coding sequence. To inhibit translation, a
complementary oligonucleotide is
designed to prevent ribosomal binding to the HTFS-encoding transcript.
X. Expression of HTFS
Expression and purification of HTFS is achieved using bacterial or virus-based
expression
systems. For expression of HTFS in bacteria, cDNA is subcloned into an
appropriate vector containing
an antibiotic resistance gene and an inducible promoter that directs high
levels of cDNA transcription.
Examples of such promoters include, but are not limited to, the trp-lac (tac)
hybrid promoter and the
TS or T7 bacteriophage promoter in conjunction with the lac operator
regulatory element.
Recombinant vectors are transformed into suitable bacterial hosts, e.g.,
BL21(DE3). Antibiotic
resistant bacteria express HTFS upon induction with isopropyl beta-D-
thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG).
Expression of HTFS in eukaryotic cells is achieved by infecting insect or
mammalian cell lines with
recombinant Auto, raphica californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNP~,
commonly known as
baculovirus. The nonessential polyhedrin gene of baculovirus is replaced with
cDNA encoding HTFS
64


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
by either homologous recombination or bacterial-mediated transposition
involving transfer plasmid
intermediates. Viral infectivity is maintained and the strong polyhedrin
promoter drives high levels of
cDNA transcription. Recombinant baculovirus is used to infect Spodoptera
fru~perda (SP9) insect
cells in most cases, or human hepatocytes, in some cases. Infection of the
latter requires additional
genetic modifications to baculovirus. (See Engelhard, E.K. et al. (1994) Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA
91:3224-3227; Sandig, V. et al. (1996) Hum. Gene Ther. 7:1937-1945.)
In most expression systems, HTFS is synthesized as a fusion protein with,
e.g., glutathione S-
transferase (GST) or a peptide epitope tag, such as FLAG or 6-His, permitting
rapid, single-step,
affinity-based purification of recombinant fusion protein from crude cell
lysates. GST, a 26-kilodalton
enzyme from Schistosoma iaponicum, enables the purification of fusion proteins
on immobilized
glutathione under conditions that maintain protein activity and antigenicity
(Amersham Pharmacia
Biotech). Following purification, the GST moiety can be proteolytically
cleaved from HTFS at
specifically engineered sites. FLAG, an 8-amino acid peptide, enables
immunoaffinity purification
using commercially available monoclonal and polyclonal anti-FLAG antibodies
(Eastman Kodak). 6-
His, a stretch of six consecutive histidine residues, enables purification on
metal-chelate resins
(QIAGEN). Methods for protein expression and purification are discussed in
Ausubel (1995, supra,
ch. 10 and 16). Purified HTFS obtained by these methods can be used directly
in the assays shown in
Examples XI and XV.
XI. Demonstration of HTFS Activity
Galactosyltransferase activity is determined by measuring the transfer of
galactose from UDP-
galactose to a GlcNAc-terminated oligosaccharide chain in a radioactive assay.
(Kolbinger, F. et al.
(1998) J. Biol. Chem 273:58-65.) The HTFS sample is incubated with 14 p1 of
assay stock solution
(180 mM sodium cacodylate, pH 6.5, 1 mg_Jml bovine serum albumin, 0.26 mM UDP-
galactose, 2 ~1 of
UDP-['H]galactose), 1 ~tl of MnCl2 (500 mM), and 2.5 ~1 of GlcNAc(30-(CH2)8
COZMe (37 mg/ml in
dimethyl sulfoxide) for 60 minutes at 37 ° C. The reaction is quenched
by the addition of 1 ml of water
and loaded on a C 18 Sep-Pak cartridge (Waters), and the column is washed
twice with 5 ml of water to
remove unreacted UDP-['H]galactose. The ['H]galactosylated GlcNAc(30-(CHZ)e
COZMe remains
bound to the column during the water washes and is eluted with 5 ml of
methanol. Radioactivity in the
eluted material is measured by liquid scintillation counting and is
proportional to galactosyltransferase
activity in the starting sample.
Alternatively, methyltransferase activity is determined using a method that
measures transfer of
radiolabeled methyl groups from a donor substrate to an acceptor substrate
(Bokar, J.A. et al. (supra)).
Reaction mixtures (50 ~1 final volume) contain 15 mM HEPES, pH 7.9, 1.5 mM
MgCl2, 10 mM
dithiothreitol, 3% polyvinylalcohol, 1.5 ~Ci [methyl-3H]AdoMet (0.375 ~M
AdoMet) (DuPont-NEN),


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
0.6 pg HTFS, and acceptor substrate (0.4 ~g [35S]RNA or 6-mercaptopurine (6-
MP) to 1 mM final
concentration). Reaction mixtures are incubated at 30°C for 30 minutes,
then 65 °C for 5 minutes.
Analysis of [methyl-3H]RNA is as follows: 1) 50 ~1 of 2 x loading buffer (20
mM tris-HCl, pH
7.6, 1 M LiCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS)) and SO ~1 oligo
d(T)-cellulose (10
mg/ml in 1 x loading buffer) are added to the reaction mixture, and incubated
at ambient temperature
with shaking for 30 minutes. 2) Reaction mixtures are transferred to a 96-well
filtration plate attached
to a vacuum apparatus. 3) Each sample is washed sequentially with three 2.4 ml
aliquots of 1 x oligo
d(T) loading buffer containing 0.5 % SDS, 0.1 % SDS, or no SDS. and 4) RNA is
eluted with 300 p1 of
water into a 96-well collection plate, transferred to scintillation vials
containing liquid scintillant, and
radioactivity determined.
Analysis of [methyl-3H]6-MP is as follows: 1) 500 X10.5 M borate buffer, pH
10.0, and then
2.5 ml of 20% (v/v) isoamyl alcohol in toluene are added to the reaction
mixtures. 2) The samples
mixed by vigorous vortexing for ten seconds. 3) After centrifugation at 700g
for 10 minutes, 1.5 ml of
the organic phase is transferred to scintillation vials containing 0.5 ml
absolute ethanol and liquid
scintillant, and radioactivity determined. and 4) Results are corrected for
the extraction of 6-MP into
the organic phase (approximately 41 %).
XII. Functional Assays
HTFS function is assessed by expressing the sequences encoding HTFS at
physiologically
elevated levels in mammalian cell culture systems. cDNA is subcloned into a
mammalian expression
vector containing a strong promoter that drives high levels of cDNA
expression. Vectors of choice
include pCMV SPORT plasmid (Life Technologies) and pCR3.1 plasmid
(Invitrogen), both of which
contain the cytomegalovirus promoter. 5-10 ~g of recombinant vector are
transiently transfected into a
human cell line, for example, an endothelial or hematopoietic cell line, using
either liposome
formulations or electroporation. 1-2 ~g of an additional plasmid containing
sequences encoding a
marker protein are co-transfected. Expression of a marker protein provides a
means to distinguish
transfected cells from nontransfected cells and is a reliable predictor of
cDNA expression from the
recombinant vector. Marker proteins of choice include, e.g., Green Fluorescent
Protein (GFP;
Clontech), CD64, or a CD64-GFP fusion protein. Flow cytometry (FCM), an
automated, laser optics-
based technique, is used to identify transfected cells expressing GFP or CD64-
GFP and to evaluate the
apoptotic state of the cells and other cellular properties. FCM detects and
quantifies the uptake of
fluorescent molecules that diagnose events preceding or coincident with cell
death. These events include
changes in nuclear DNA content as measured by staining of DNA with propidium
iodide; changes in
cell size and granularity as measured by forward light scatter and 90 degree
side light scatter; down-
regulation of DNA synthesis as measured by decrease in bromodeoxyuridine
uptake; alterations in
66


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
expression of cell surface and intracellular proteins as measured by
reactivity with specific antibodies;
and alterations in plasma membrane composition as measured by the binding of
fluorescein-conjugated
Annexin V protein to the cell surface. Methods in flow cytometry are discussed
in Ormerod, M.G.
(1994) Flow Cvtometry, Oxford, New York NY.
The influence of HTFS on gene expression can be assessed using highly purified
populations of
cells transfected with sequences encoding HTFS and either CD64 or CD64-GFP.
CD64 and CD64-
GFP are expressed on the surface of transfected cells and bind to conserved
regions of human
immunoglobulin G (IgG). Transfected cells are efficiently separated from
nontransfected cells using
magnetic beads coated with either human IgG or antibody against CD64 (DYNAL,
Lake Success NY).
mRNA can be purified from the cells using methods well known by those of skill
in the art. Expression
of mRNA encoding HTFS and other genes of interest can be analyzed by northern
analysis or
microarray techniques.
XIII. Production of HTFS Specific Antibodies
HTFS substantially purified using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE;
see, e.g.,
Harrington, M.G. (1990) Methods Enzymol. 182:488-495), or other purification
techniques, is used to
immunize rabbits and to produce antibodies using standard protocols.
Alternatively, the HTFS amino acid sequence is analyzed using LASERGENE
software
(DNASTAR) to determine regions of hiigh immunogenicity, and a corresponding
oligopeptide is
synthesized and used to raise antibodies by means known to those of skill in
the art. Methods for
selection of appropriate epitopes, such as those near the C-terminus or in
hydrophiilic regions are well
described in the art. (See, e.g., Ausubel, 1995, su ra, ch. 11.)
Typically, oligopeptides of about 15 residues in length are synthesized using
an ABI 431A
peptide synthesizer (PE Biosystems) using FMOC chemistry and coupled to KLH
(Sigma-Aldrich, St.
Louis MO) by reaction with N-maleimidobenzoyl-N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (MBS)
to increase
immunogenicity. (See, e.g., Ausubel, 1995, suQra.) Rabbits are immunized with
the oligopeptide-KLH
complex in complete Freund's adjuvant. Resulting antisera are tested for
antipeptide and and-HTFS
activity by, for example, binding the peptide or HTFS to a substrate, blocking
with 1 % BSA, reacting
with rabbit antisera, washing, and reacting with radio-iodinated goat anti-
rabbit IgG.
XIV. Purification of Naturally Occurring HTFS Using Specific Antibodies
Naturally occurring or recombinant HTFS is substantially purified by
immunoaffinity
chromatography using antibodies specific for HTFS. An immunoaffinity column is
constructed by
covalently coupling anti-HTFS antibody to an activated chromatographiic resin,
such as CNBr-activated
SEPHAROSE (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). After the coupling, the resin is
blocked and washed
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
67


CA 02387785 2002-04-17
WO 01/32888 PCT/US00/30485
Media containing HTFS are passed over the immunoaffinity column, and the
column is washed
under conditions that allow the preferential absorbance of HTFS (e.g., high
ionic strength buffers in the
presence of detergent). The column is eluted under conditions that disrupt
antibody/HTFS binding
(e.g., a buffer of pH 2 to pH 3, or a high concentration of a chaotrope, such
as urea or thiocyanate ion),
and HTFS is collected.
XV. Identification of Molecules Which Interact with HTFS
HTFS, or biologically active fragments thereof, are labeled with'ZSI Bolton-
Hunter reagent.
(See, e.g., Bolton A.E. and W.M. Hunter (1973) Biochem. J. 133:529-539.)
Candidate molecules
previously arrayed in the wells of a multi-well plate are incubated with the
labeled HTFS, washed, and
any wells with labeled HTFS complex are assayed. Data obtained using different
concentrations of
HTFS are used to calculate values for the number, affinity, and association of
HTFS with the candidate
molecules.
Alternatively, molecules interacting with HTFS are analyzed using the yeast
two-hybrid
system as described in Fields, S. and O. Song (1989, Nature 340:245-246), or
using commercially
available kits based on the two-hybrid system, such as the MATCHMAKER system
(Clontech).
HTFS may also be used in the PATHCALLING process (CuraGen Corp., New Haven CT)
which employs the yeast two-hybrid system in a high-throughput manner to
determine all interactions
between the proteins encoded by two large libraries of genes (Nandabalan, K.
et al. (2000) U.S. Patent
No. 6,057,101 ).
Various modifications and variations of the described methods and systems of
the invention will
be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and
spirit of the invention.
Although the invention has been described in connection with certain
embodiments, it should be
understood that the invention as claimed should not be unduly limited to such
specific embodiments.
Indeed, various modifications of the described modes for carrying out the
invention which are obvious
to those skilled in molecular biology or related fields are intended to be
within the scope of the following
claims.
