Abstract:
An isolated antibody or portion thereof that specifically binds to a protein selected from the group consisting of:(a) a protein whose sequence consists of amino acid residues 2 to 10 of SEQ ID NO:4; (b) a protein whose sequence consists of amino acid residues 11 to 19 of SEQ ID NO:4; (c) a protein whose sequence consists of amino acid residues 27 to 35 of SEQ ID NO:4; (d) a protein whose sequence consists of the-amino acid residues 31 to 46 of SEQ ID NO:4; (e) a protein whose sequence consists of amino acid residues 38 to 46 of SEQ ID NO:4; (f) a protein whose sequence consists of amino acid residues 42 to 50 of SEQ ID NO:4; and (g) a protein whose sequence consists of the amino acid residues of the extracellular domain of the polypeptide encoded by the cDNA in ATCC Deposit No. 209343 which are distinct from the amino acid amino acid residues of the extracellular domain of the polypeptide encoded by the cDNA in ATCC Deposit No. 209341.
