Description: SIGNALING INOSITOL POLYPHOSPHATE 5-PHOSPHATASES (SIPs) Field of the Invention This invention relates to novel 5-phosphatase polypeptides called signaling inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases (SIPs) or fragments or derivatives thereof that participate in signal transduction This invention further relates to polynucleotides that encode novel polypeptides or fragments or derivatives thereof and to vectors and host cells containing such This invention describes modulators of SIP activity, and relates to methods of treating diseases characterized by abnormal cell growth associated with abnormal production of inositol polyphosphate and phosphatidyhnositol phosphates or aberrant 5-phosphatase activity Background of the Invention SHC and GRB2 protem signaling molecules form a complex in response to growth factor or oncogenic transformation, as described in Rozakis-Adcock et al Nature 360 689-92 (1992) These proteins are thought to transmit mitogenic signals from receptor and non-receptor tyrosine kinases to ras, a member of a major class of oncogenes and proto-oncogenes that encode G proteins that are located on the inner face of the plasma membrane, where they bind and hydrolyze GTP Ras proteins are involved in an unknown way in growth-factor stimulation of cell proliferation, as described in Alberts et al MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF THE CELL (second edition, Garland publishing New York, 1989) pp 699 and 705 The precise mechanism of the action of ras remains unknown, as indicated in Lowenstem et al Cell 70 431-42 (1992) and Gale et al Nature 363 88-92 (1993) By expression interaction cloning, the GRB2 SH3 domains were found to bind to a GRB2- associated signaling inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (called SIP-110), a 110 kDa protein believed to be involved in signaling events that follow growth factor stimulation, and occur between the cell surface and transeriptional activation events Furthermore, SIP-110 is believed to participate in modulating signaling by ras and by phosphatidyl inositol 3-kιnase (PI 3-kιnase), two known regulators of cell growth It would be advantageous in the process of elucidating the mechanism of ras, PI 3-kmase and other signaling molecules and pathways, to discover other signaling molecules that participate in the signal transduction that modulates the activity of the ras pathway, the PI 3-kιnase pathway, the MAP kinase pathway, the calcium signaling pathway and other signaling pathways such that cellular responses including growth and proliferation may be regulated by regulating such signaling molecules Activation of phosphatidylmositol 3 '-kinase (PI 3-kιnase) by growth factois and oncogenes has been implicated as a critical step in mitogenic signaling and cellular transformation, as described in Cantley et al, Cell 64:281-302 (1991), Kapeller and Cantley. Bιoessa\s 16:565-16 (1994), and Stephens et al, Biochim Biophys Acta 1179:21-15 (1993), PI 3-kιnase consists of 8 kDa and 110 kDa subunits which associate with receptor tyrosine kinases and intracellular signaling molecules in response to treatment with growth factors or m transformed cells Blockade of PI 3- kinase function either by mutagenesis or with pharmacological inhibitors prevents mitogenic signaling Further, two products of PI 3-kmase, PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 and PtdIns(3,4)P> increase in cells treated with mitogenic stimuli as Hawkins, et al Nature 358:151-910, (1992) and Klippel et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:41 17-4127 (1996) The products of PI 3-kιnase are presumed to act as second messengers or as regulators of protein-protein interactions The regulation of PI . - kinase activity duπng signaling is less well studied Changes in subcellular locah∑ation, in phosphorylation state and m conformation of the enzyme have been suggested to contribute to activation but little is known about how PI 3-kιnase might be downregulated It would be advantageous to discover and characterize molecules implicated m PI 3-kmase mediated pathways, as a means to learning how to regulate PI 3-kιnase Summary of the Invention The invention is an isolated signaling inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (SIP) polypeptide having a polypeptide including a sequence of 50 consecutive amino acids from SEQ ID No 15(SIP 130) where the polypeptide has an activity including 5' phosphatase activity specific for a 3' phosphorylated substrate, and binding of a phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain contained within a Src homology-2 domain and Collagen (SHC) containing polypeptide Th. invention is also a polynucleotide that encodes this polypeptide A polynucleotide sequence encoding a functional portion of a polypeptide sequence of SEQ ID No 15 is also part of the invention A polynuclectide sequence encoding SEQ ID No 15 is likewise an aspect of the invention, as is a polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID No 12 The invention is also a method of producing a SIP polypeptide by introduc ing into a host cell a polynucleotide that encodes the polypeptide, and expressing the polypeptide in the host cell The invention is a modulator capable of modulating an activity including an activity of SIP polypeptide, a level of SIP mRNA transcription, and a level of SIP protein expression The invention is also a method of treating a mammal having or at risk for having a condition characterized by higher than normal levels of PI 3-kιnase activity by providing a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, or a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and administering an effective amount of this therapeutic agent to a mammal The invention is also method of treating a mammal having or at risk for having a condition characterized by higher than normal levels of mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase activity b> providing a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, or a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and administering an effective amount of this therapeutic agent to a mammal The invention is also a method of reducing a level of phosphatidyhnositol (3,4,5) triphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 ) in a cell in a mammal by providing a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, or a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and administering an effective amount of this therapeutic agent to a mammal The invention is also a method of regulating mitogenic activity in a population of cells in a mammal by providing a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, or a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and administering an effective amount of this therapeutic agent to a mammal The invention is a pharmaceutical composition for treating a mammal having a population of mitogenic cells having higher than normal levels of PI 3-kιnase activity or higher than normal levels of MAP kinase activity using an effective amount of a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier The invention is a pharmaceutical composition for treating a mammal having a condition characterized by higher than normal levels of phosphatidyhnositol (3,4,5) polyphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 ) including an effective amount of a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier The invention is also a pharmaceutical composition for treating a mammal having a condition characterized by a deficiency of an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase including an effective amount of a therapeutic agent including a SIP polypeptide, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide, a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier The invention includes also a polynucleotide sequence of a 5' untranslated region of SIP gene, for use in a regulatory function for regulating a heterologous coding sequence, a polynucleotide sequence of a 3' untranslated region of a SIP gene, for use m a regulatory function for regulating a heterologous coding sequence, and a polynucleotide sequence of a promoter region of a SIP gene, for use in a regulatory function for regulating a heterologous coding sequence It is an object of the present invention to provide novel polypeptides that participate in the signaling pathway that may regulate cell growth and proliferation.

Detailed Description The invention described herein draws on previously published work and pending patent applications. By way of example, such work consists of scientific papers, patents or pending patent applications. All such published work cited herein are hereby incoφorated by reference. The invention is not limited to any theories of action of the elements of the invention. Definitions An "isolated polypeptide" or "isolated polynucleotide" as used herein refers to a polypeptide or polynucleotide, respectively, produced in vivo or in vitro in an environment manipulated by humans using state of the art techniques of molecular biology, biochemistry and gene therapy. For example, an isolated polypeptide can be produced in a cell free system by automated peptide or polypeptide synthesis, in heterologous host cells transformed with the nucleic acid sequence encoding the polypeptide and regulatory sequences for expression in the host cells, and in an animal into which the coding sequence of the polypeptide has been introduced for expression in the animal. A polypeptide or polynucleotide is "isolated" for purposes herein to the extent that it is not present in its natural state inside a cell as a product of nature. For example. such isolated polypeptides or polynucleotides can be 10% pure, 20% pure, or a higher degree of purity. The term "inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family" as used herein refers to a family of phosphatases each of which removes the 5 phosphate from inositol- and phosphatidyiinositol- polyphosphates. The family of proteins is determined by the substrate specificity of these enzymes and by amino acid sequence homology. A description of some of the aspects of the family is provided in Jefferson and Majerus, J Biol Chem 270: 9370-77 (1995). The term "activated T cell" and "activated B cell" refers to T and B cells that have been stimulated, for example, with cytokines or growth factors, or which have had their antigen receptors cross-linked using antibodies, all of which events stimulate gene expression, cell proliferation or other responses in T and B cells. The term "tyrosine phosphorylated" as used herein refers to the addition of a phosphate group at a tyrosine residue. Generally, tyrosine phosphorylation of polypeptides is associated with activation or inactivation of signaling pathways. Tyrosine phosphorylation is also associated with activation or inhibition of signaling molecules. Tyrosine phosphorylation of a polypeptide of the invention can occur in response to, for example, B or T cell activation In some cases, binding to other polypeptides occurs before, after, or during the tyrosine phosphorylation of a polypeptide. The term "SHC PTB domain" or "PTB domain" as used herein refers to the phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain of an Src Homology 2 Collagen (or SHC) protein. The PTB domain was originally identified as a 186-residue segment of the signaling protein SHC which binds specifically to a tyrosine-phosphorylated form of proteins in response to many growth factors, as described in Kavanaugh and Williams, Science 266: 1862-1865 (1994). In addition to having a PTB domain, SHC also has an SH2 domain. The term "apparent molecular weight" as used herein refers to the molecular weight of the protein or polypeptide as it migrates on a polyacrylamide gel under reducing or non-reducing conditions. The "apparent" molecular weight may be accounted for by glycosylations or other moieties that alter the molecular weight of the polypeptide alone. The term "SIP protein" as used herein refers to any of the following proteins, each of which is distinguished from the others by apparent molecular weight, amino acid sequence differences, and nucleic acid sequence differences. All the SIP proteins have some sequence homology with proteins of the SIPfamily. SIP proteins include a protein of an apparent molecular weight of approximately 130-135 kDa (SIP-130), which binds the PTB domain of a SHC protein, and to a protein with homology to SIP- 130 but no homology to SIP-110 and possessing an SH2 domain called SIP-N. SIP has been variously reported to have a molecular mass of 130, 140, 145 or 150 kDa. Recombinant SIP-130 migrated at the exact same apparent molecular weight as the largest form of endogenous SIP present in either lysates or anti-SHC immunoprecipitates from B cells. These results strongly suggest that full-length SIP corresponds to SIP-130, contains residues 41-976, and has an apparent molecular mass of approximately 130-135 kDa. This form of SIP was therefore used in subsequent experiments. SIP-N is also described herein, and is depicted as SEQ ID NO. 29 (nucleic acid) and SEQ ID NO. 30 (amino acid). The term "SIP-1 10" as used herein refers to a polypeptide having a molecular weight of about 110 kDa (SEQ ID NO 14) (GRB2- associated inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase or SIP-110). SIP-110 binds both SH3 (Src Homology 3) domains on the GRB2 protein, and modulates signaling of, for example, ras. In addition to having 2 SH3 domains, GRB2 also has an SH2 domain. A "gene delivery vehicle" refers to a component that facilitates delivery to a cell of a coding sequence for expression of a polypeptide in the cell. The cell can be inside the mammal, as in in vivo gene therapy, or can be removed from the mammal for transfection and returned to the mammal for expression of the polypeptide as in ex vivo gene therapy. The gene delivery vehicle can be any component or vehicle capable of accomplishing the delivery of a gene to a cell, for example, a liposome, a particle, or a vector. A gene delivery vehicle is a recombinant vehicle, such as a recombinant viral vector, a nucleic acid vector (such as plasmid), a naked nucleic acid molecule such as genes, a nucleic acid molecule complexed to a polycationic molecule capable of neutralizing the negative charge on the nucleic acid molecule and condensing the nucleic acid molecule into a compact molecule, a nucleic acid associated with a liposome (Wang, et al., PNAS 84:7851 , 1987), a bacterium, and certain eukaryotic cells such as a producer cell, that are capable of delivering a nucleic acid molecule having one or more desirable properties to host cells in an organism. As discussed further below, the desirable properties include the ability to express a desired substance, such as a protein, enzyme, or antibody, and/or the ability to provide a biological activity, which is where the nucleic acid molecule carried by the gene delivery vehicle is itself ihe active agent without requiring the expression of a desired substance. One example of such biological activity is gene therapy where the delivered nucleic acid molecule incoφorates into a specified gene so as to inactivate the gene and "turn off" the product the gene was making. Gene delivery vehicle refers to an assembly which is capable of directing the expression of the sequence(s) or gene(s) of interest. The gene delivery vehicle will generally include promoter elements and may include a signal that directs polyadenylation. In addition, the gene delivery vehicle includes a sequence which, when transcribed, is operably linked to the sequence(s) or gene(s) of interest and acts as a translation initiation sequence. The gene delivery vehicle may also include a selectable marker such as Neo, SV2 Neo, TK, hygromycin, phleomycin, histidinol, cr DHFR, as well as one or more restriction sites and a translation termination sequence. Gene delivery vehicles as used within the present invention refers to recombinant vehicles, such as viral vectors (Jolly, Cancer Gen. Therapy 7:51-64, 1994), nucleic acid vectors, naked DNA, cosmids, bacteria, and certain eukaryotic cells (including producer cells; see U.S. Serial No. 08/240,030 and U.S. Serial No. 07/800,921), that are capable of eliciting an immune response within an animal. Representative examples of such gene delivery vehicles include poliovirus (Evans et al., Nature 359:385-388, 1989; and Sabin, J. Biol. Standardization 7: 115-118, 1973); rhinovirus; pox viruses, such as canary pox virus or vaccinia virus (Fisher-Hoch et al. , PNAS 56:317-321 , 1989; Flexner et al. , _ _/m. N. Y. Acad. Sci. 569:86-103, 1989; Flexner et al. , Vaccine 8: 17-21 , 1990; U.S. Patent Nos. 4,603,112, 4,769,330, and 5,017,487; WO 89/01973); SV40 (Mulligan et al.. Nature 277: 108-114, 1979); retrovirus (U.S. Patent No. 4,777, 127, GB 2,200,651 , EP 0,345,242, and WO 91/02805); influenza virus (Luytjes et al., Cell 59: 1107-1113, 1989; McMicheal et al. , N. Eng. J. Med. 509: 13-17, 1983; and Yap et al.. Nature 275:238-239, 1978); adenovirus (Berkner, Biotechniques 6:616-627, 1988; Rosenfeld et al. , Science 252:431-434, 1991 ; WO 93/9191 ; Kolls et al., PNAS 97:215-219, 1994; Kass-Eisler et al., PNAS 90: 11498-11502, 1993; Guzman et al., Circulation <.5:2838-2848, 1993; Guzman et al. , Cir.

Vir. 65:3822-3828, 1989; Mendelson et al., Virol. 766: 154-165, 1988; PA 7/222,684); heφes (Kit, Adv. Exp. Med. Biol. 275:219-236, 1989); SV40; HIV (Poznansky, /. Virol. 65:532-536, 1991); measles (EP 0 440,219); astrovirus (Munroe. S.S. et al., J. Vir. 67:3611-3614, 1993); Semliki Forest Virus, and coronavirus, as well as other viral systems (e.g. , EP 0,440,219; WO 92/06693; U.S. Patent No. 5, 166,057). In addition, viral carriers may be homologous, non-pathogenic(defective), replication competent virus (e.g., Overbaugh et al., Science 259:906-910,1988), and nevertheless induce cellular immune responses, including cytotoxic T-cell lymphocytes (CTL). The term "in vivo administration" refers to administration to a mammal a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide for expression in the mammal. In particular, direct in vivo administration involves transfecting a mammal's cell with a coding sequence without removing the cell from the mammal. Thus, direct in vivo administration may include direct injection of the DNA encoding the polypeptide of interest in the region of interest resulting in expression in the mammal's cells. The term "ex vivo administration" refers to transfecting a cell, for example, a cell from a population of cells that are exhibiting aberrant or absence of SIP activity, after the cell is removed from the mammal. After transfection the cell is then replaced in the mammal. Ex vivo administration can be accomplished by removing cells from a mammal, optionally selecting for cells to transform, rendering the selected cells incapable of replication, transforming the selected cells with a polynucleotide encoding a gene for expression, including also a regulatory region for facilitating the expression, and placing the transformed cells back into the mammal for expression of the SIP polypeptide. "Biologically active" refers to a molecule that retains a specific activity. A biologically active SIP polypeptide, for example, retains its phosphatase ability, or also by example, its ability to bind the PTB (phosphotyrosine binding) domain of SHC. In general, biologically active means, in the case of a SIP polypeptide, retention of at least one activity normally associated with a native SIP polypeptide. "Administration" or "administering" as used herein refers to the process of delivering to a mammal a therapeutic agent, or a combination of therapeutic agents. The process of administration can be varied, depending on the therapeutic agent, or agents, and the desired effect. Administration can be accomplished by any means appropriate for the therapeutic agent, for example, by parenteral, mucosal, pulmonary, topical, catheter-based, and oral means of delivery. Parenteral delivery can include, for example, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, int a-arterial, and injection into the tissue of an organ. Mucosal delivery can include, for example, intranasal delivery. Pulmonary delivery can include inhalation of the agent. Catheter-based delivery can include delivery by iontophoretic catheter-based delivery. Oral delivery can include delivery of an enteric coated pill, or administration of a liquid by mouth. Administration will generally also include delivery with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. , such as, for example, a buffer, a polypeptide, a peptide, a polysaccharide conjugate, a liposome, and a lipid. A gene therapy protocol is considered an administration in which the therapeutic agent is a polynucleotide capable of accomplishing a therapeutic goal when expressed as a transcript or a polypeptide in the mammal. "Co-administration" refers to administration of one or more therapeutic agents in course of a given treatment of a mammal. The agents may be administered with the same pharmaceutical carrier, or different carriers. They may be administered by the same administration means, for example intramuscular injection, or different means, for example also oral administration in an enteric coated capsule, or nasal spray. The agents may be the same type of agent or different types of agents, for example polynucleotides, polypeptide, or small molecules. The time of administration may be exactly the same time, or one therapeutic agent may be administered before or after another agent. Thus a co-administration can be simultaneous, or consecutive. The exact protocol for a given combination of therapeutic agents it determined considering the agents and the condition being treated, among other considerations A "nucleic acid molecule" or a "polynucleotide," as used herein, refers to either RNA or DNA molecule that encodes a specific amino acid sequence or its complementary strand Nucleic acid molecules may also be non-coding sequences, for example, a ribozyme, an antisense oligonucleotide, or an untranslated portion of a gene A "coding sequence" as used herein, refers to either RNA or DNA that encodes a specific amino acid sequence or its complementary strand A polynucleotide may include, for example, an antisense oligonucleotide, or a ribozyme, and may also include such items as a 3' or 5' untranslated region of a gene, or an intron of a gene, or other region of a gene that does not make up the coding region of the gene The DNA or RNA may be single stranded or double stranded Synthetic nucleic acids or synthetic polynucleotides can be chemically synthesized nucleic acid sequences, and may also be modified with chemical moieties to render the molecule resistant to degradation Synthetic nucleic acids can be ribozymes or antisense molecules, for example Modifications to synthetic nucleic acid molecules include nucleic acid monomers or derivative or modifications thereof, including chemical moieties For example, phosphothioates can be used for the modification A polynucleotide derivative can include, for example, such polynucleotides as branched DNA (bDNA) A polynucleotide can be a synthetic or recombinant polynucleotide, and can be generated, for example, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, or recombinant expression of complementary DNA or RNA, or by chemical synthesis The term "an expression control sequence" or a "regulatory sequence" refers to a sequence that is conventionally used to effect expression of a gene that encodes a polypeptide and include one or more components that affect expression, including transcription and translation signals Such a sequence includes, for example, one or more of the following a promoter sequence, an enhancer sequence, an upstream activation sequence, a downstream termination sequence, a polyadenylation sequence, an optimal 5' leader sequence to optimize initiation of translation in mammalian cells, a Kozak sequence, which identifies optimal residues around initiator AUG for mammalian cells The expression control sequence that is appropriate for expression of the present polypeptide differs depending upon the host system in which the polypeptide is to be expressed For example, in prokaryotes, such a control sequence can include one or more of a promoter sequence, a Shine- Dalgarno sequence, a πbosomal binding site, and a transcription termination sequence In eukaryotes, for example, such a sequence can include a promoter sequence, and a transcription termination sequence If any necessary component of an expression control sequence is lacking in the nucleic acid molecule of the present invention, such a component can be supplied by the expression vector to effect expression. Expression control sequences suitable for use herein may be derived from a prokaryotic source, an eukaryotic source, a virus or viral vector or from a linear or circular plasmid. Further details regarding expression control sequences are provided below. An example of a regulatory sequence is the human immunodeficiency virus ("HIV-l ") promoter that is located in the U3 and R region of the HIV-l long terminal repeat ("LTR"). Alternatively, the regulatory sequence herein can be a synthetic sequence, for example, one made by combining the UAS of one gene with the remainder of a requisite promoter from another gene, such as the GADP/ADH2 hybrid promoter. Any "polypeptide" of the invention, including a native or altered SIP polypeptide, includes any part of the protein including the mature protein, and further include truncations, variants, alleles, analogs and derivatives thereof. Variants can be spliced variants expressed from the same gene as the related protein. Unless specifically mentioned otherwise, such a polypeptide possesses one or more of the bioactivities of the protein, including for example protease activity, or inhibition of a protease. This term is not limited to a specific length of the product of the gene. Thus, polypeptides that are identical or contain at least 60% , preferably 70%, more preferably 80% , and most preferably 90% homology to the target protein or the mature protein, wherever derived, from human or nonhuman sources are included within this definition of a polypeptide. Also included, therefore, are alleles and variants of the product of the gene that contain amino acid substitutions, deletions, or insertions. The amino acid substitutions can be conservative amino acid substitutions or substitutions to eliminate non-essential amino acid residues such as to alter a glycosylation site, a phosphorylation site, an acetylation site, or to alter the folding pattern by altering the position of the cysteine residue that is not necessary for function, etc. Conservative amino acid substitutions are those that preserve the general charge, hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity and/or steric bulk of the amino acid substituted, for example, substitutions between the members of the following groups are conservative substitutions: Gly/ Ala, Val/Ile/Leu, Asp/Glu, Lys/ Arg, Asn/Gln, Ser/Cys/Thr and Phe/Tφ/Tyr. Analogs include peptides having one or more peptide mimics, also known as peptoids, that possess the target protein-like activity. Included within the definition are, for example, polypeptides containing one or more analogs of an amino acid (including , for example, unnatural amino acids, etc.), polypeptides with substituted linkages, as well as other modifications known in the art, both naturally occurring and nonnaturally occurring. The term "polypeptide" also does not exclude post-expression modifications of the polypeptide, for example, gly cosy lations, acetylations, phosphory lations, myristoy lations and the like. The term "binding pair" refers to a pair of molecules capable of a binding interaction between the two molecules. Usually a binding interaction furthers a cell signal or cellular event. The term binding pair can refer to a protein/protein, protein-DNA, protein-RNA, DNA-DNA, DNA-RNA, and RNA-RNA binding interactions, and can also include a binding interaction between a small molecule, a peptoid, or a peptide and a protein, DNA, or RNA molecule, in which the components of the pair bind specifically to each other with a higher affinity than to a random molecule, such that upon binding, for example, in case of a ligand/receptor interaction, the binding pair triggers a cellular or an intracellular response An example of a ligand/receptor binding pair is a pair formed between PDGF (platelet derived growth factor) and a PDGF receptor An example of a different binding pair is an antigen/antibody pair in which the antibody is generated by immunization of a host with the antigen Another example of a binding pair is the formation of a binding pair between a protease and a protease inhibitor, or a protease substrate and a protease inhibitor Specific binding indicates a binding interaction having a low dissociation constant, which distinguishes specific binding from non-specific, background, binding Inhibition of a biological interaction can be accomplished by inhibiting an in vivo binding interaction such as, for example, a DNA-protein interaction Such inhibition can be accomplished, for example, by an inhibitor that bind the protein, or by an inhibitor that binds the DNA, m either case, thus preventing the original endogenous binding interaction, and so the biological activity that follows from it "Homology" refers to the degree of similarity between x and y The correspondence between the sequence from one form to another can be determined by techniques known in the art For example, they can be determined by a direct comparison of the sequence information of the polynucleotide Typically, two sequences, either polynucleotide or polypeptide, are homologous if the sequences exhibit at least 45% sequence identity, more typically, 50% sequence identity, more typically, 55 % sequence identity, more typically, 60% sequence identity, more typically, 65 % sequence identity, even more typically, 70% sequence identity Usually, two sequences are homologous if the sequences exhibit at least 75% sequence identity, more usually, 80% sequence identity, even more usually, 85% sequence identity, even more usually, 90% sequence identity, and even more usually, 95% sequence identity Alternatively, homology can be determined by hybridization of the polynucleotides under conditions which form stable duplexes between homologous regions Stable duplexes are those, for example, which would withstand digestion with a single-stranded specific nuclease(s), such as Si Such duplexes can be analyzed by various methods, such as size determination of digested fragments "Hybridization" refers to the association of two nucleic acid sequences to one another by hydrogen bonding Typically, one sequence will be fixed to a solid support and the other will be free m solution Then, the two sequences will be placed in contact with one another under conditions that favor their binding hydrogen bonding Factors that affect this binding bonding include: the type and volume of solvent; reaction temperature; time of hybridization; agitation; agents to block the non-specific attachment of the liquid phase sequence to the solid support (Denhardt's reagent or BLOTTO); concentration of the sequences; use of compounds to increase the rate of association of sequences (dextran sulfate or polyethylene glycol); and the stringency of the washing conditions following hybridization. See Sambrook, et al. MOLECULAR CLONING; A LABORATORY MANUAL, SECOND EDITION (1989), Volume 2, chapter 9, pages 9.47 to 9.57. "Stringency" refers to conditions in a hybridization reaction that favor association of very similar sequences over sequences that differ. For example, the combination of temperature and salt concentration should be chosen that is approximately 12° to 20° C below the calculated T m of the hybrid under study. The term "naked DNA" refers to polynucleotide DNA for administration to a mammal for expression in the mammal. The polynucleotide can be, for example, a coding sequence, and the polynucleotide DNA can be directly or indirectly connected to an expression control sequence that can facilitate the expression of the coding sequence once the DNA is inside a cell. The direct or indirect connection is equivalent from the perspective of facilitating the expression of the DNA in the mammal's cells, and merely allows the possibility of the inclusion of other sequences between the regulatory region and the coding sequence that may facilitate the expression further, or may merely act a linker or spacer to facilitate connecting the two polynucleotide regions together to form a nonviral vector. "Recombinant retroviral vector" refers to an assembly which is capable of directing the expression of a sequence(s) or gene(s) of interest. Preferably, the retroviral vector construct should include a 5' LTR, a tRNA binding site, a packaging signal, one or more heterologous sequences , an origin of second strand DNA synthesis and a 3' LTR. A wide variety of heterologous sequences may be included within the vector construct, including for example, sequences which encode a protein (e.g., cytotoxic protein, disease-associated antigen, immune accessory molecule, or replacement protein), or which are useful in and of themselves (e.g., as ribozymes or antisense sequences). Alternatively, the heterologous sequence may merely be a "stuffer" or "filler" sequence of a size sufficient to allow production of retroviral particles containing the RNA genome. Preferably, the heterologous sequence is at least 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 Kb in length. The retroviral vector construct may also include transeriptional promoter/enhancer or locus defining element(s), or other elements which control gene expression by means such as alternate splicing, nuclear RNA export, post-translational modification of messenger, or post-transcriptional modification of protein. Optionally, the retroviral vector construct may also include selectable markers that confer resistance of recombinant retroviral vector, transduced or transfected, cells lo TK, hygromycin, phleomycin, histidinol, or DHFR, as well as one or more specific restriction sites and a translation termination sequence. The term "fusion protein" or "fusion polypeptide" refers to the recombinant expression of more than one heterologous coding sequence in a vector or contiguous connection such that expression of the polypeptide in the vector results in expression of one polypeptide that includes more than one protein or portion of more than one protein. Fusion proteins can be called chimeric proteins. Most optimally, the fusion protein retains the biological activity of the polypeptide units from which it is built, and preferably, the fusion protein generates a synergistic improved biological activity by combining the portion of the separate proteins to form a single polypeptide. A fusion protein can also be created with a polypeptide that has function and a peptide or polypeptide that has no function when expressed, but which serves a puφose for the expression of the polypeptide with activity. Examples of fusion proteins useful for the invention include any SIP fusion protein engineered to some advantage for a therapeutic or other use. A "therapeutically effective amount" is that amount that will generate the desired therapeutic outcome. For example, if the therapeutic effect desired is reduction or arrest of uncontrolled growth in a population of cells, the therapeutically effective amount is that amount that facilitates the reduction or arrest of cell growth. A therapeutically effective amount can be an amount administered in a dosage protocol that includes days or weeks of administration, for example. Where the therapeutic effect is a reduction of the effects of uncontrolled cell growth in the mammal, for example, the effective amount of an agent to accomplish this in the mammal will be that amount that results in, for example, tumor regression, or reduced hypeφroliferation of a population of cells. A "therapeutic agent" as used herein can be any agent that accomplishes or contributes to the accomplishment of one or more of the therapeutic elements of the invention. For example, where the therapeutic agent is a polynucleotide designed to express a SIP polypeptide, that agent will be a polynucleotide that can be administered to and expressed in a cell in the mammal. Thus, the active form of the agent will initially be the expressed polypeptide. A SIP therapeutic agent is a therapeutic agent with the bioactivity of SIP or a therapeutic agent derived from native SIP. Optimally, a therapeutic agent will achieve a therapeutic goal, alone or in combination with other agents, for example, the use of other known treatments for a particular condition used in conjunction with administration of SIP or a modulator of SIP, or a gene delivery vehicle capable of facilitating expression of SIP or a modulator of SIP in the mammal. The therapeutic agents including for example agonists or antagonists of SIP, for example, a small organic molecule, a peptide, a peptoid, a polynucleotide, or a polypeptide SIP or SIP modulatory therapeutic agent. A "combination therapeutic agent" is a therapeutic composition having several components or agents that produce their separate effects when administered together, and perhaps maybe also produce a synergistic effect when administered together to treat a disease. Preferably, the separate effects of the combination therapeutic agent combine to result in a larger therapeulic effect, for example recovery from a disease manifesting PI 3-kinase activity, or MAP kinase activity, or activities associated with products of the PI 3-kinase or MAP kinase pathways, and long term survival. An example of separate effects resulting from administration of a combination therapeutic agent is the combination of such effects as short-term, or long-term remission, or decrease of ar. auto-immune response to a particular type of cell in the patient. An example of a combination therapeutic agent of this invention would be administration of a gene delivery vehicle including a polynucleotide encoding a mutant or native SIP polypeptide, or a polypeptide capaible of modulating SIP activity, administered in a viral vector, followed with administration of another drug to treat the particular condition. For example, thymidine kinase can be administered with SIP as a prodrug activator, in the event a prodrug is required later to kill the gene delivery vehicle expression system in the mammal. Also by example, a chemotherapeutic agent can be administered to kill tumor cells along with the polynucleotide encoding a SIP polypeptide or a modulator of SIP activity. The various therapeutic agents can be administered in the same pharmaceutically acceptable carrier at the same time, followed, perhaps, for example, by repeated administrations of one or all of the individual agents as needed to make the therapy efficacious. The term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" refers to a carrier for administration of a therapeutic agent, such as, for example, a polypeptide, polynucleotide, small molecule, peptoid, or peptide, refers to any pharmaceutically acceptable carrier that does not itself induce the production of antibodies harmful to the individual receiving the composition, and which may be administered without undue toxicity. "Vector construct" refers to an assembly which is capable of directing the expression of the sequence(s) or gene(s) of interest. The vector construct must include transeriptional promoter/enhancer or locus defining element(s), or other elements which control gene expression by other means such as alternate splicing, nuclear RNA export, post-translational modification of messenger, or post-transcriptional modification of protein. In addition, the vector construct must include a sequence which, when transcribed, is operably linked to the sequence(s) or gene(s) ol interest and acts as a translation initiation sequence. Optionally, the vector constiυct may also include a signal which directs polyadenylation, a selectable marker such as Neo, TK, hygromycin, phleomycin, histidinol, or DHFR, as well as one or more restriction sites and a translation termination sequence. In addition, if the vector construct is placed into a retrovirus, the vector construct must include a packaging signal, long terminal repeats (LTRs), and positive and negative strand primer binding sites appropriate to the retrovirus used (if these are not already present). "Tissue-specific promoter" refers to transeriptional promoter/enhancer or locus defining elements, or other elements which control gene expression as discussed above, which are preferentially active in a limited number of tissue types. Representative examples of such tissue- specific promoters include the PEP-CK promoter, HER2/neu promoter, casein promoter, IgG promoter, Chorionic Embryonic Antigen promoter, elastase promoter, poφhobilinogen deaminase promoter, insulin promoter, growth hormone factor promoter, tyrosine hydroxylase promoter, albumin promoter, alphafetoprotein promoter, acetyl-choline receptor promoter, alcohol dehydrogenase promoter, α or β globin promoters, T-cell receptor promoter, or the osteocalcin promoter. "Event-specific promoter" refers to transeriptional promoter/enhancer or locus defining elements, or other elements which control gene expression as discussed above, whose transeriptional activity is altered upon response to cellular stimuli. Representative examples of such event-specific promoters include thymidine kinase or thymidilate synthase promoters, α or β interferon promoters and promoters that respond to the presence of hormones (either natural, synthetic or from other non-host organisms, e.g. , insect hormones). The term "derivative" as used herein in reference to a polypeptide or a polynucleotide means a polypeptide or polynucleotide that retains the functionality of the polypeptide or polynucleotide to which it is a derivative. They may be variously modified by amino acid deletions, substitutions, insertions or inversions by, for example, site directed mutagenesis of the underlying nucleic acid molecules. Derivatives of a polypeptide or polynucleotide may also be fragments thereof. In any case, a derivative, or a fragment, retains at least some, and preferably all of the function of the polypeptide from which it is derived. "Mammalian cell" as used herein refers to a subset of eukaryotic cells useful in the invention as host cells, and includes human cells, and animal cells such as those from dogs, cats, cattle, horses, rabbits, mice, goats, pigs, etc. The cells used can be genetically unaltered or can be genetically altered, for example, by transformation with appropriate expression vectors, marker genes, and the like. Mammalian cells suitable for the method of the invention are any mammalian cell capable of expressing the genes of interest, or any mammalian cells that can express a cDNA library, cRNA library, genomic DNA library or any protein or polypeptide useful in the method of the invention. Mammalian cells also include cells from cell lines such as those immortalized cell lines available from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). Such cell lines include, for example, rat pheochromocytoma cells (PC 12 cells), embryonal carcinoma cells (P19 cells), Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, HeLa cells, baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells, monkey kidney cells (COS), human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (e.g., Hep G2), human embryonic kidney cells, mouse sertoli cells, canine kidney cells, buffalo rat liver cells, human lung cells, human liver cells, mouse mammary tumor cells, as well as others. Also included are hematopoetic stem cells, neuronal stem cells such as neuronal sphere cells, and embryonic stem cells (ES cells). The term "antagonist" as used herein refers to a molecule that blocks signaling, as for example, a molecule that can bind a receptor, but which does not cause a signal to be transduced by the receptor to the cell. In the case of signaling inositol polyphosphatase 5'-phosphatases (SIPs), an antagonist might block signaling by a SIP by binding the SIP, for example, at an SH2 domain on the SIP molecule, or by binding the SIP, for example, so as to inhibit its phosphatase activity. In general, an antagonist of a SIP polypeptide is an inhibitor of any biological activity of the SIP polypeptide. A given inhibitor or agonist may target and inhibit one biological activity, while not affecting another non-target activity of the molecule. The term "agonist" as used herein refers to a molecule that mimics the signaling in the pathway under study, for example, by binding a receptor and promoting a signal transduction ro the cell through the receptor. In the case of signaling inositol polyphosphatase 5'-phosphatases (SIPs), an agonist might mediate signaling by a SIP by binding the SIP in a way that promotes signaling by the SIP to other protein molecules; or an agonist might mimic the signaling accomplished by a SIP and bind protein targets of SIPs, thereby promoting signaling. Agonists and antagonists or inhibitors, are modulators of a given biological activity or molecule. The inventors herein have discovered a novel polypeptides of apparent molecular weight of about 130-135 kDa of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family. The 130- 135 kDa polypeptide is named signaling inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase or SIP-130.. SIP can also be called SHIP for SH2-containing Inositol Phosphatase. SIP associates with the SHC protein through its PTB domain. Additionally, the inventors have identified SIP-N, a SIP that contains homology to the amino terminus of SIP-130, but no homology with SIP-110, the 110 kDa polvpeptide member of the SIP family. In one embodiment of the present invention, the novel polypeptides can be purified from extracts of cells stimulated by to treatment of cells with, for example, growth factors such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and other stimulating factors such as, for example, leukemia inhibitory factor, interleukin-6 (IL-6). The novel polypeptides can also be extracted from activated T cells and B cells. These polypeptides can be purified by any conventional means. For example, the supematants from the pelleted homogenized cells can be separated by anti-phosphotyrosine antibody affinity chromatography Column fractions can be assayed for the presence of the polypeptides binding to SHC PTB domain by, for example, human SHC PTB domain expressed as a glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fusion protein in bacteria or Sf9 cells and labeled The labeled fusion protein can be used to monitor the purification process Fractions can be further separated by dialysis, anion exchange chromatography, and by SDS-PAGE, or by other means standard in the art of peptide purification For identification of the amino acid sequences of the novel polypeptides they can be digested with endoproteinase Lys-C to yield peptide fragments for sequencing The peptide sequencing can be done by standard methods The sequences of these peptides can then be compared to known polypeptides in a database such as, for example, the database GenBank The polypeptide fragments can be used as the basis of construction of oligonucleotide probes for probing cDNA libraries, such as a human λgtl l cDNA library, to obtain a cDNA molecule that encodes the polypeptide The inventors herein have discovered that certain peptide sequences obtained by endoproteinase Lys-C digestion of the novel polypeptides herein have substantial sequence homology to the amino acid sequence of SIP-110 A SIP-1 10 sequence has been identified by expression cloning characterized by its binding to GRB2 SH3 domains SIP-110 possesses an apparent molecular weight of about 110 kDa SIP 110 can be obtained by expression by using radiolabeled human GRB2 protein to screen a human library made from tissue known to contain signaling molecules, such as, for example, a human placental λgtl 1 cDNA library, as described in Blanar & Rutter, Science 256 1014-8 (1992) Duplicate filters can be probed with antiphosphotyrosine antibody to identify and eliminate SH2 domain-mediated interactions Clones that interacted with GRB2 and are not tyrosine phosphorylated can be considered positives This interaction will be specific for GRB2 Full length SIP-110 has 4147 base pairs that encode a polypeptide of 976 amino acids Sequencing of a cDNA clone can be accomplished by standard techniques, and will identify any open reading frame or portion thereof of the polypeptide The predicted 110 kDa protein will contain proline-rich motifs and will have significant homology to the inositol 5-phosphatases SIP-110 is formerly called GRB2-assocιated inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (GAPtase or GA5Ptase) A point mutation in either of the two GRB2 SH3 domains will reduce or eliminate SIP- 110 binding, where mutations in the SH2 domains will not have this effect, demonstrating that SIP-110 binds the SH3 domains of GRB2 To clone SIP- 130, cDNA was generated by reverse transcription of total or mRNA of cells or tissues known to have signaling proteins such as, for example, human lung, placental, or liver tissue, human HepG2 liver, Balb/c fibroblast, BAL 17 B cell, and others to yield cDNA for a library. The cDNA was ligated into an appropriate library vector, such as, for example, pCMV- Sport plasmid, λ gtlO, λ gtl l, and any other appropriate vector, and screened with SIP-110 DNA probes of varying lengths. The probes were, for example, a DNA probe from any region of SIP- 110. A preferred sequence for the probe was a sequence conserved within the family of inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, such as, for example, a sequence selected from those sequences described in Jefferson and Majerus, J Biol Chem 270: 9370-77 (1995). The cDNA generated from the above described tissues was subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using specific primers from, for example, one or more SIP-110 sub-sequences, specific primers from the arms of the library vector, degenerate primers derived from the polypeptide sequence of a purified polypeptide of about 130-135 kDa, and conserved sequences from the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family. The PCR products were generated by standard PCR techniques, and once generated, were compared. The products that were in the size range of the expected size of SIP coding sequence based on SIP amino acid conteni and polypeptide size were cloned into sequencing vectors or sequenced from the PCR mixture directly. To further identify positive clones representing pl30, those sequences that have some identity with SIP-110, but also contain unique pl30 sequences will represent the gene sequence of the novel polypeptides herein. The unique pl30 peptide sequences are represented in mouse and human sequence in SEQ ID No.s 1 and 5, 2 and 6, 3 and 7, 4 and 8, and 9 and 13 Peptide sequence of pl25 polypeptide are represented in SEQ ID No.s 25, 26, and 27. SIP-N was generated by using SIP- 130 polynucleotide probes and screening a cDNA library. The genomic DNA sequence of the present novel polypeptides can be idenlified by screening genomic DNA libraries, for example, those made from human placental tissue or other tissue, with any SIP sequence. The genomic DNA can be used to identify the sequences that regulate mRNA expression, to determine the intron and exon organization of the gene and, because exons usually represent functional domains within a protein, to determine the possible functional domains of the protein and understand how SIP functions in cells. Knowing the in ron and exon organization will identify any splice variants that exist and their exact relationship lo one another. Once identified, either by hybridization to homologous DNA probes, or by RT/PCR, the polynucleotide sequence encoding the novel polypeptide can be ligated into vectors for sequencing and/or cloning and expression, and mutagenesis. Vectors appropriate for sequencing include vectors for which sequencing primers are known and easily available, such as, for example, T7 and SP6 promoter primers for use in sequencing from a vector established for use with these primers . Vectors appropriate for expression of the polypeptides include any vector including regulatory sequences for controlling expression. Host cells for replication of the polynucleotide clone and lor expression of the polypeptide include any host cell, prokaryotic or eukaryotic, for accomplishing replication or expression of the polynucleotide and polypeptide. The regulatory sequences can be any regulatory sequence operable for expression of the polypeptides of the invention. The sequence can be heterologous to the polypeptide, and/or heterologous to the host cell, having the only requirement that promotes cloning or expression of the polynucleotide or polypeptide within the cloning or expression system. The host cells, if eukaryotic, can be fungal cells, insect cells, fish cells, amphibian cells, avian cells, crustacean cells and mammalian cells. The coding regionsof SIP-N and SIP-130 can be expressed in any conventional expression system for expressing such proteins and polypeptides. Examples of such expression systems are provided below. Expression of large quantities of the polypeptide is useful for therapeutic applications, and for further studies on the polypeptide. In addition, further manipulation of the SIP gene using any expression system known in the art, including but not limited to those listed below, can be accomplished by conventional mutagenesis or alteration of the coding sequence of SIP and subsequent expression of the altered gene. This can be done in order to generate a SIP that is incompetent for signaling, for example, for use in diagnosis of a ras activation pathway, the PI 3-kinase pathway, a MAP kinase pathway, a calcium signaling pathway, or for diagnosis of another signaling pathway in which SIP or SHC is in involved, or for use in therapeutic interruption of cell proliferation. Additionally, inhibitors of SIP can be used to activate these pathways, in a therapeutic or other context. Because it is known that SIP-N and SIP- 130 each contain an SH2 domain, a domain that mediates interactions with specific tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, it is likely that SIP-N and SIP-130 are important signaling molecules. Based on the presence of SH2 domains, new protein partners of SIP-N and SIP- 130 can be identified by using standard biochemical or expression cloning techniques. For example, a library could be screened by the yeast 2-hybrid system as described U.S. Patent no. 5,283, 173 for proteins that bind the SH2 domains of the SIP molecules, or for proteins that bind SIP molecules at any other part of the SIP molecule. An isolated polypeptide can thus be found having a first domain that, upon tyrosine phosphorylation, is capable of forming a binding pair with a PTB domain of SHC, and a second domain having a peptide sequence that possesses at least 70% amino acid sequence homology to one selected from the group consisting of (a) (SEQ ID NO: 1), (b) (SEQ ID NO: 2), (c) (SEQ ID NO: 3), (d) (SEQ ID NO: 4) and (e) (SEQ ID NO: 13). This isolated polypeptide can have an amino acid sequence that is obtainable from a cell of an activated T cell, an activated B cell, a cell capable of responding to treatment by PDGF, a cell capable of responding to treatment by FGF, a cell capable of responding to treatment by leukemia inhibitory factor, and a cell capable of responding to treatment by interleukin-6, wherein the polypeptide is capable of binding to a PTB domain of SHC to form a binding pair. This isolated polypeptide can be a polypeptide capable of binding to antibodies to form a binding pair, where the antibodies are obtained from the serum of an animal immunized with a composition having a peptide that includes an epitope of SIP- 110. The epitope of SIP- 110 can be selected from the amino acid residues 48-231 , amino acid residues 232- 500, and amino acid residues 891-969 of SIP- 110. The isolated polypeptide can have an apparent molecular weight of about 130-135 kDa. The isolated polypeptide can generate, upon digestion with endoproteinase Lys-C, a peptide having an amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 5), wherein X represents an amino acid residue. The isolated polypeptide can generate, upon digestion with endoproteinase Lys-C, a peptide having an amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 6), wherein X represents an amino acid residue. The isolated polypeptide can generate, upon digestion with endoproteinase Lys-C, a peptide having an amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 7), where X represents an amino acid residue. The isolated polypeptide can generate, upon digestion with endoproteinase Lys-C, a peptide having an amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 8), wherein X represents an amino acid residue. The isolated polypeptide can generate, upon digestion with endoproteinase Lys-C, a peptide having an amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 9), wherein X represents an amino acid residue. A pharmaceutical composition having the isolated polypeptide described above and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is also part of the invention, as is an isolated olynucleotide having a nucleotide sequence that encodes the polypeptide described, and a pharmaceutical composition having this polynucleotide along with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The polynucleotide can be RNA, intron- free DNA, genomic DNA and complementary strands thereof. A recombinant vector having this polynucleotide and a regulatory control sequence that is capable of controlling the expression of the polynucleotide is also part of the invention, as is a host cell having the vector. The host cell can be a fungal cell, an insect cell, a fish cell, an amphibian cell, an avian cell, a crustacean cell, or a mammalian cell. The invention also includes application of standard molecular biology techniques to produce the SIP polypeptide(s) described, including production of the polypeptide in a fungal cell, an insect cell, a fish cell, an amphibian cell, an avian cell, a crustacean cell, or a mammalian cell. The standard techniques can include providing an oligonucleotide probe that encodes a sequence of at least 4 consecutive amino acid residues of the polypeptide; probing a nucleic acid library with the oligonucleotide; and isolating a clone that hybridizes with the oligonucleotide under stringent conditions to form a binding pair. This method can use at least 4 consecutive amino acid residues of the human sequences of (SEQ ID NO: 1), (SEQ ID NO 2), (SEQ ID NO 3), (SEQ ID NO 4), (SEQ ID NO 13) or the mouse sequences of (SEQ ID NO 5), (SEQ ID NO 6), (SEQ ID NO 7), (SEQ ID NO 8), and (SEQ ID NO 9) The invention also includes producing a recombinant vector having a SIP polypeptide Further, the invention includes an antibody produced by injecting a composition having at least one epitope of the SIP polypeptιde(s) described herein into a mammal, and obtaining serum from the mammal, and the antibody is capable of forming a binding pair with the SIP polypeptide The antibody can be modified to be a single chain antibody or a humanized antibody, and a hybridoma can be made that is capable of producing such an antibody Further, the antibody can be a polyclonal or a monoclonal antibody The invention contemplates a modulator of a SIP polypeptide, and the modulator can be an antibody, a peptide, a peptoid, a small molecule inhibitor, or a fragment of a polypeptide and the modulator can modulate a biological activity of the SIP polypeptide A type of modulator can be an inhibitor of SIP biological activity The invention is also a method of treating a disease characterized by a deficiency of an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase in a mammal by administering to the mammal a SIP polypeptide or a biologically active derivative of SIP, or a modulator of SIP, any of which have the capability of correcting the deficiency The disease can be Lowe's oculocerebralrenal disease, or can be a disease characterized by abnormal cell growth The inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase deficiency m a mammal can be corrected by administering to the mammal a pharmaceutical composition having a SIP polypeptide, or a modulator of SIP biological activity A small molecule inhibitor of a SIP polypeptide can be found by allowing the SIP polypeptide to contact a kinase in the presence of a composition comprising candidate small molecule inhibitors to form a mixture, determining the presence of inhibition of phosphorylation in the mixture, and identifying a molecule in the mixture that is responsible for any inhibition A small molecule inhibitor of SIP polypeptide can also be found by allowing the polypeptide to contact a PTB domain of SHC in the presence of a composition comprising candidate small molecule inhibitors to form a mixture, determining the presence of inhibition of binding of the polypeptide to the PTB domain, and identifying a molecule in the mixture that is responsible for any inhibition Further, a method of identifying a small molecule inhibitor of a SIP polypeptide can be accomplished by allowing the polypeptide to contact an inositol polyphosphate or phosphotidyhnositol polyphosphate in the presence of a composition comprising candidate small molecule inhibitors to form a mixture, determining the presence of inhibition of hydrolysis in the mixture, and identifying a molecule in the mixture that is responsible for any inhibition The inositol polyphosphate can be inositol 1,3,4,5 tetrakisphosphate and the phosphotidylinositol polyphosphate can be phosphotidylinositol (3,4,5) trisphosphate. Yet another method of identifying a small molecule inhibitor to a SIP polypeptide can be accomplished by allowing the SIP polypeptide to contact GRB2 in the presence of a composition having candidate small molecule inhibitors to form a mixture; determining the presence of inhibition of binding to GRB2; and identifying a molecule in the mixture that is responsible for any inhibition. The invention includes a polynucleotide sequence having a functional portion of SEQ ID NO: 29 connected to a heterologous polynucleotide sequence; a polynucleotide sequence having a functional portion of SEQ ID NO: 12 connected to a heterologous polynucleotide sequence; a functional portion of a polypeptide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 30; and a functional portion of a polypeptide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 15. The invention includes a method of attenuating 5-phosphatase signaling mediated by SH2 domain binding to other polypeptides by providing a polynucleotide encoding a portion of a 5- phosphatase containing an SH2 domain; and expressing the polynucleotide in a mammal. This method can include a portion of a 5-phosphatase containing an SH2 domain including SIP-N and SIP- 130. The invention is also a method of identifying inhibitors of 5-phosphatase signaling activity by providing a SIP; using the SIP in a yeast 2-hybrid screen of a cDNA library; identifying a polypeptide expressed by the cDNA library that forms a binding pair with the SIP and screening a candidate inhibitor for ability to disrupt the binding pair just identified. The SIP can be SIP- 110 or SIP- 130. The invention includes a method of treating a cell or a mammal having a condition or disease characterized by signaling mediated by polyphosphate 5-phosphatase activity by providing an inhibitory amount of an antagonist of 5-phosphatase activity; and administering the antagonist to the cell or the a mammal having the condition or disease. The invention is also a method of treating a cell or mammal having a condition or disease characterized by signaling mediated by polyphosphate 5-phosphatase activity by providing a stimulatory amount of an agonist of 5- phosphatase activity; and administering the agonist to the cell or to the mammal. The 5- phosphatase activity can be SIP- 110 or SIP -130 activity. The agonist or antagonist can be a small molecule, a peptide, a peptoid, a polypeptide, or a polynucleotide. The disease can be characterized by cells growing slower than normal, or by proliferating cells. In either case, the :ell growth is expected to be abnormal. In the case where an antagonist of SIP is administered, either to a cell or a mammal, the conditions that can be treated in the mammal include, for example, stroke, myocardial infarction, or an immunodeficiency state. In the case where SIP or an agonist of SIP is administered, the conditions that can be treated include for example, cancer and other cell proliferative disorders. Additionally, SIP polypeptide or a polynucleotide encoding a SIP, an agonist of SIP, or an antagonist of SIP can be administered for modulating a calcium signaling pathway. For example, where the pathway is to be inhibited, a SIP polypeptide can be administered. For example, where the pathway is to be stimulated, an antagonist of SIP is can be administered.

The invention is also a pharmaceutical composition for treatment of a condition that is characterized by retarded cell growth or apoptosis.

Examples of such disease states are stroke, myocardial infarction, or immunodeficiency states where cells are dying from apoptosis. In these contexts, a SIP inhibitor or antagonist will increase cell survival and preserve cell function.

The invention is also a pharmaceutical composition for treating a mammal having a population of cells exhibiting lower than normal levels of calcium signaling having an effective amount of a therapeutic agent that is an antagonist of a SIP polypeptide and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Functional portions of the SIP polypeptide can be used to design therapeutic agents for treating appropriate conditions. For example, the SIP-derived sequence could be used to act as a dominant/negative to inhibit SIP function, delivered, for example, in a gene delivery vehicle. SIP analogues can also be designed to agonize SIP activity in cells. Parts or all of a SIP protein, could be synthetically constructed and placed in a vector for expression, for delivery to a mammal for expression in the mammal, or for delivery as a recombinant protein therapeutic agent. Administration of the polynucleotides derived from a SIP sequence could follow, to be accomplished by any means known for administration of polynucleotides for expression in a mammal, including, for example, liposomes, gels, matrices, injection of naked DNA, and covatent or non-covalent attachment of the polynucleotide to a carrier. The polynucleotide could be administered to the patient for expression in the patient, either systemically, or locally, depending on the nature of the condition being treated. Expression of an active SIP domain, for example, could then act to block SIP signaling, or to mimic it. The cloned SIP gene can be used to generate derivatives of the polypepti e by using conventional techniques of recombinant DNA technology for preparation of variously modified derivatives or fragments of the full length, native polypeptide. The modifications can be made, for example, by single or multiple amino acid deletions, substitutions, insertions, or inversions by, for example, means of site directed mutagenesis of the underlying DNA. Such fragments of SIP may possess at least one original useful activity of SIP. All the allelic variations, glycosylated versions, modifications and fragments resulting in derivatives of SIP are within the scope of the invention so long as they contain a functional segment of SIP and retain the essential characteristic SIP activity attributed to that functional segment. Also, functional studies of SIP can be conducted by altering, for example, the domain of SIP that binds the (phosphotyrosine binding) PTB domain of (SH2 and collagen protein) SHC, (represented in SEQ ID No.s 31 and 32), or the catalytic domain, expressing the altered polypeptide and identifying the necessary and sufficient moieties on SIP that permit or interrupt binding, or permit or interrupt catalytic activity as the case may be. Other functional studies on SIP can be conducted in a similar manner to determine the regions of SIP that interact with other proteins and to determine the functional domains of SIP that are responsible for SIP effects on, SHC-related signaling, other signaling, or any intracellular response attributable to SIP. Functional utility of the polypeptide fragments that make up SIP can be elucidated by determining which polypeptides are responsible for signaling pathway modulation, or for a cellular response, for example, modulation of the ras pathway, modulation of a MAP kinase pathway, in both instances including potentiation, inhibition or activation, and modulation of the PI 3-kinas_ pathway including potentiation, inhibition or activation, or abnormal cell growth generally. Polypeptide fragments important in ras pathway modulation or PI 3-kinase pathway modulation, for example, may constitute polypeptides involved in binding the PTB domain, or other domains that are involved in the modulating, activating, inhibiting, or potentiating complex of polypeptides. With sequence knowledge of these polypeptide fragments, altered peptides that alter the signal, for example, by binding competitively but without the ability to transmit a signal, can be constructed and used therapeutically. Such polypeptide fragments and derivatives include, for example, polypeptides that act as a dominant negative modulators of the affected signaling pathway or the cellular response. In addition, small molecule antagonists and agonists of SIP activity can be discovered by screening methods standard in the art, including those methods described herein. Such molecules can be screened by their ability to modulate, inhibit, or augment any activity attributable at least in part to the novel polypeptides herein, including, but not limited to ras pathway activation, PI 3 kinase pathway activation, the MAP kinase pathway, or other SIP related cellular responses or pathways. In this regard, molecules that inhibit SIP binding via the SH2 domain, or molecules that inhibit SIP-binding via a PTB domain of an SHC protein can be screened for. For example, the SH2 domain could be used to identify inhibitors of the binding of a SIP to important targets. These inhibitors could be, for example, phosphorylated peptides, peptide derivatives such as peptoids, small molecules, or polynucleotides. Additionally, agonists of SIP signaling can be sought, for mimicking the activity of a SIP, for example, where a condition is characterized by lower than normal levels of SIP signaling, or by SIP signaling that represents an aberrant pathway from normal. Similarly, antagonists of SIP signaling can be sought, for blocking the signaling activity of a SIP by a variety of mechanisms including, for example, binding a SIP to prevent signaling, or binding the signaling molecule to prevent SIP binding. Agonists or antagonists can be, for example, phosphorylated peptides, peptide derivatives such as peptoids, small molecules, polynucleotides, or other polypeptides. Any of the full-length, fragments, derivatives, or polypeptide inhibitors or antagonists of the invention can be cloned, expressed, or synthesized by standard recombinant DNA or chemical techniques. Some exemplary expression systems that can be applied for these puφoses follow. Expression Systems Although the methodology described below is believed to contain sufficient details to enable one skilled in the art to practice the present invention, other constructs not specifically exemplified, such as plasmids, can be constructed and purified using standard recombinant DNA techniques as described in, for example, Sambrook et al. (1989), MOLECULAR CLONING: A LABORATORY MANUAL, 2nd ed. (Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, New York); and under current regulations described in United States Dept. of HHS, NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF HEALTH (NLH) GUIDELINES FOR RECOMBINANT DNA RESEARCH.

Suitable vectors and promoters for use in yeast expression are further described in Hitzeman, EP 073,657. Yeast enhancers also are advantageously used with yeast promoters. In addition, synthetic promoters which do not occur in nature also function as yeast promoters. Examples of hybrid promoters include promoters which consist of the regulatory sequences of either the ADH2, GALA, GAL10, or PHO 5 genes, combined with the transeriptional activation region of a glycolytic enzyme gene such as GAP or PyK, as described in EP 164,556. Furthermore, a yeast promoter can include naturally occurring promoters of non-yeast origin that have the ability to bind yeast RNA polymerase and initiate transcription. Other control elements which may be included in the yeast expression vectors are terminators, and leader sequences which encode signal sequences for secretion. DNA encoding suitable signal sequences can be derived from genes for secreted yeast proteins, such as the yeast invertase gene and the a-factor gene. Alternatively, leaders of non-yeast origin, such as an interferon leader, also provide for secretion in yeast, as described in EP 060,057. Methods of introducing exogenous DNA into yeast hosts are well known in the art, and typically include either the transformation of spheroplasts or of intact yeast cells treated with alkali cations. Insect expression Baculovirus expression vectors (BEVs) are recombinant insect viruses in which the coding sequence for a foreign gene to be expressed is inserted behind a baculovirus promoter in place of a viral gene, for example polyhedrin, as described in U.S. Pat. No., 4,745,051. An expression construct herein includes a DNA vector useful as an intermediate for the infection or transformation of an insect cell system, the vector generally containing DNA coding for a baculovirus transeriptional promoter, optionally but preferably, followed downstream by an insect signal DNA sequence capable of directing secretion of a desired protein, and a site for insertion of the foreign gene encoding the foreign protein, the signal DNA sequence and the foreign gene being placed under the transeriptional control of a baculovirus promoter, the foreign gene herein being the coding sequence of the desired polypeptide. The promoter for use herein can be a baculovirus transeriptional promoter region derived from any of the over 500 baculoviruses generally infecting insects. Particularly suitable for use herein is the strong polyhedrin promoter of the baculovirus, which directs a high level of expression of a DNA insert, and the promoter from the gene encoding the plO protein. The plasmid for use herein usually also contains the polyhedrin polyadenylation signal, and a procaryotic ampicillin-resistance (amp) gene and an origin of replication for selection and propagation in E. coli. DNA encoding suitable signal sequences can also be included and is generally derived from genes for secreted insect or baculovirus proteins, such as the baculovirus polyhedrin gene, as well as mammalian signal sequences such as those derived from genes encoding human a-interferon; human gastrin-releasing peptide; human IL-2; mouse IL-3, and human glucocerebrosidase. Other baculovirus genes in addition to the polyhedrin promoter may be employed to advantage in a baculovirus expression system. These include immediate-early (alpha), delayed-early (beta), late (gamma), or very late (delta), according to the phase of the viral infection during which they are expressed. Currently, the most commonly used transfer vector that can be used herein for introducing foreign genes into AcNPV is pAc373. Many other vectors, known to those of skill in the art, can also be used herein.

Expression in Amphibian Cells Expression of SIP polypeptide, derivatives, variants and fusions and polypeptide modulators can be conducted in the oocytes of amphibians. One amphibian particularly useful for this purpose is Xenopus laevis because of the capacity of the oocytes of this animal to express large libraries .

(1988) Bio/Technology 6:565-570. Mammalian expression The polypeptides of the present invention can be expressed in mammalian cells, such as HeLa cells, using promoters and enhancers that are functional in those cells Synthetic non natural promoters or hybrid promoters can also be used For example, a T7T7/T7gene promoter can be constructed and used where the T7 polymerase is under the regulatory control of its own promoter and drives the transcription of the inserted coding sequence, which is placed under the control of another T7 promoter Also suitable for use herein is the gene for the CCAAT/ enhancer-binding protein C/EBPalpha Typical promoters for mammalian cell expression include the SV40 early promoter, the CMV promoter, the mouse mammary tumor virus LTR promoter, the adenovirus major late promoter (Ad MLP), and the heφes simplex virus promoter, among others Other non- viral promoters, such as a promoter derived from the murine metallothionein gene, will also find use in mammalian constructs Mammalian expression may be either constitutive or regulated (inducible), depending on the promoter Typically, transcription termination and polyadenylation sequences will also be present, located 3' to the translation stop codon Preferably, a sequence for optimization of initiation of translation, located 5' to the polypeptide coding sequence, is also present Examples of transcription terminator /polyadenylation signals include those derived from SV40 Introns, containing splice donor and acceptor sites, may also be designed into the constructs of the present invention Enhancer elements can also be used herein to increase expression levels of the mammalian constructs Examples include the SV40 early gene enhancer, and the enhancer/promoter derived from the long terminal repeat (LTR) of the Rous Sarcoma Virus, and human cytomegalovirus A leader sequence can also be present which includes a sequence encoding a signal peptide, to provide for the secretion of the foreign protein in mammalian cells Preferably, there are processing sites encoded between the leader fragment and the gene of interest such that the leader sequence can be cleaved either in vivo or in vitro The adenovirus tripartite leader is an example of a leader sequence that provides for secretion of a foreign protein in mammalian cells Once complete, the mammalian expression vectors can be used to transform any of several mammalian cells Methods for introduction of heterologous polynucleotides into mammalian cells are known in the art and include dextran-mediated transfection, calcium phosphate precipitation polybrene mediated transfection, protoplast fusion, electroporation, encapsulation of the polynucleotιde(s) in liposomes, and direct microinjection of the DNA into nuclei General aspects of mammalian cell host system transformations have been described in U S 4,399,216 Mammalian cell lines available as hosts for expression are also known and include many immortalized cell lines available from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), including but not limited to, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, HeLa cells, baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells, monkey kidney cells (COS), human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (e.g. , Hep G2), human embryonic kidney cells, baby hamster kidney cells, mouse sertoli cells, canine kidney cells, buffalo rat liver cells, human lung cells, human liver cells, mouse mammary tumor cells, as well as others. The mammalian host cells used to produce the polypeptides of this invention may be cultured in a variety of media. Commercially available media such as Ham's FK) (Sigma), Minimal Essential Medium ([MEM], Sigma), RPMI-1640 (Sigma), and Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium ([DMEM1, Sigma) are suitable for culturing the host cells. In addition, any of the media described in Ham and Wallace, Meth. Enz. (1979) 58 44, Barnes and Sato, Anal. Biochem. (1980) 702: 255, U.S. Patent Nos. 4,767,704, 4,657,866, 4,927,762, or 4,560,6.55, WO 90/103430, WO 87/00195, and U.S. RE 30,985, may be used as culture media for the host cells. Any of these media may be supplemented as necessary with hormones and/or other growth factors such as insulin, transferrin, or epidermal growth factor, salts (such as sodium chloride, calcium, magnesium, and phosphate), buffers (such as HEPES), nucleosides (such as adenosine and thymidine), antibiotics (such as Gentamycin™ M drug), trace elements (defined as inorganic compounds usually present at final concentrations in the micromolar range) , and glucose or an equivalent energy source. Any other necessary supplements may also be included at appropriate concentrations that would be known to those skilled in the art. The culture conditions, such as temperature, pH, and the like, are those previously used with the host cell selected for expression, and will be apparent to the ordinarily skilled artisan. The novel polypeptides of the present invention can further be used to generate monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies . These antibodies are useful to identify such polypeptide s and immunoprecipitate, for example, SIP bound polypeptides, and are useful also to inhibit SIP activity for diagnostic puφoses, or for in vivo therapeutic uses. Antibodies to the proteins of the invention, both polyclonal and monoclonal, may be prepared by conventional methods. In general, the piotein is first used to immunize a suitable animal, preferably a mouse, rat, rabbit or goat. Rabbits and goats are preferred for the preparation of polyclonal sera due to the volume of serum obtainable, and the availability of labeled anti-rabbit and anti-goat antibodies. Immunization is generally performed by mixing or emulsifying the protein in saline, preferably in an adjuvaxit such as Freund's complete adjuvant, and injecting the mixture or emulsion parenterally (generally subcutaneously or intramuscularly). A dose of 50-200 μg/injection is typically sufficient. Immunization is generally boosted 2-6 weeks later with one or more injections of the protein ir saline, preferably using Freund's incomplete adjuvant. One may alternatively generate antibodies by in vitro immunization using methods known in the art, which for the puφoses of this invention is considered equivalent to in vivo immunization Polyclonal antisera is obtained by bleeding the immunized animal into a glass or plastic container, incubating the blood at 25 °C for one hour, followed by incubating at 4°C for 2-18 hours The serum is recovered by centrifugation, for example, at about 1 ,000 x g for 10 minutes About 20-50 ml per bleed may be obtained from rabbits Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) are prepared using the method of Kohler and Milstein, Nature (1975) 256 495-96, or a modification thereof Typically, a mouse or rat is immunized as descπbed above However, rather than bleeding the animal to extract serum, the spleen, and optionally several large lymph nodes, is removed and dissociated into single cells If desired, the spleen cells may be screened, after removal of nonspecifically adherent cells, by applying a cell suspension to a plate or well coated with the protein antigen B-cells expressing membrane-bound immunoglobulin specific for the antigen bind to the plate, and are not rinsed away with the rest of the suspension Resulting B-cells, or all dissociated spleen cells, are then induced to fuse with myeloma cells to form hybridomas, and are cultured in a selective medium such as one containing, e g , hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine (a "HAT" medium) The resulting hybridomas are plated by limiting dilution, and are assayed for the production of antibodies which bind specifically to the immunizing antigen, and which do not bind to unrelated antigens The selected MAb-secreting hybridomas are then cultured either in vitro, e g , in tissue culture bottles or hollow fiber reactors, or in vivo, as ascites m mice If desired, the antibodies, whether polyclonal or monoclonal, may be labeled using conventional techniques Suitable labels include fluorophores, chromophores, radioactive atoms 32 125 (particularly P and I), electron-dense reagents, enzymes, and ligands having specific binding partners Enzymes are typically detected by their activity For example, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is usually detected by its ability to convert 3, 3 ',5, 5 -tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to a blue pigment, quantifiable with a spectrophotometer "Specific binding partner" refers to a protein capable of binding a ligand molecule with high specificity, as for example in the case of an antigen and a monoclonal antibody specific therefor Other specific binding partners include biotin and a \ ldm or streptavidin, IgG and protein A, and the numerous receptor- gand couples known in the art It should be understood that the above description is not meant to categorize the various labels 125 into distinct classes, as the same label may serve in several different modes For example, I may serve as a radioactive label or as an electron-dense reagent HRP may serve as enzyme or as antigen for a MAb Further, one may combine various labels for desired effect For example, MAbs and avidin also require labels in the practice of this invention thus, one might label a MAb 125 with biotin, and detect its presence with avidin labeled with I, or with an anti -biotin MAb labeled with HRP. Other permutations and possibilities will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art, and are considered as equivalents within the scope of the instant invention. The antibodies generated in this manner can be used in any conventional applications, including for diagnostic and therapeutic puφoses. For example, as a diagnostic, it can be used in an immunoassay for identification or detection of a SIP polypeptide or a homologue thereof in a sample suspected of containing such. For this puφose, the antibodies can be labeled with a suitable marker, such as a radioactive label, and allowed to react with the sample. After an appropriate length of time, the sample can be examined for the presence of specific binding pairs. Presence of specific binding suggests that a SIP polypeptide or a homologue thereof is present in the sample. The antibodies to the SIP polypeptide, polyclonal or monoclonal, and preferably monoclonal, can be used for therapeutic puφoses for blocking the in vivo activity of the SIP polypeptide. Such antibodies will be compatible to the host to be treated. For example, for treatment of humans, the antibodies can be human monoclonal antibodies or humanized antibodies, as the term is generally known in the art. The humanized antibodies can be made by any number of conventional methods. For example, by cdr (complementarity determining region) grafting, veneering, phage library display, or by use of xeno-mouse. In cdr grafting, the coding regions of the cdr of murine antibodies are linked to the coding regions of the framework regions of human antibodies. In veneering, the canonical regions of the antibodies, including parts of the cdr and parts of the murine framework regions that are exposed on the surface of the molecule, are maintained as well as the murine cdr regions. The antibodies to be administered can be given in a therapeutically effective amount, and can be in the form of a pharmaceutical composition. Design of the immunoassays is subject to a great deal of variation, and a variety of these are known in the art. Protocols for the immunoassay may be based, for example, upon competition, or direct reaction, or sandwich type assays. Protocols may also, for example, use solid supports, or may be by immunoprecipitation. The assays herein involve the use of labeled antibodies to the SIP polypeptide or labeled SIP polypeptides. The labels may be, for example, fluorescent, chemiluminescent, radioactive, or dye molecules. Assays which amplify the signals from the probe can also be used; examples of which are assays which utilize biotin and avidin, and enzyme labeled and mediated immunoassays, such as ELISA assays. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) can be used, for example, to measure either antigen, the SIP polypeptide, concentration or the antibody to the SIP polypeptide concentration. This method depends upon conjugation of an enzyme to either the antigen or to the antibody, and uses the bound enzyme activity as a quantitative label. To measure the antibody concentration, the antigen is fixed to a solid phase, such as a microplate or plastic cup, incubated with dilutions of the sample to be tested The mixture is then washed, incubated with anti- lmmunoglobulin labeled with an enzyme, and washed again Enzymes suitable for labeling are known in the art, and include, for example, horseradish peroxidase Enzyme activity bound to the solid phase is measured by adding the specific substrate, and determining product formation or substrate utilization coloπmetπcally The enzyme activity bound is a direct function of the amount of antibody bound To measure antigen concentration, that is, SIP polypeptide concentration, a known specific antibody is fixed to the solid phase, the test material containing antigen is added After incubation, the solid phase is washed, and a second enzyme-labeled antibody is added After washing, substrate is added, and enzyme activity is estimated coloπmetπcally, and related to antigen concentration Immunofluorescence assays can also be performed with such antibodies and antigens, as described in Hashido et al , Biochem Biophys Res Comm (1992) 787(3) 1241-1248 Modulators of SIP activity can be screened for from small molecule libraries, including small organic molecules, peptides, and peptide deπvatives known as peptoids Modulators can also be derived from noncoding DNA sequences, for example, ribozymes and antisense polynucleotides These modulators can be screened for agonist activity of SIP or antagonist activity of SIP, depending on the therapeutic goal Small Molecule Library Synthesis Therapeutic agents of the invention can include peptides and peptoids derived from SIP polypeptide sequence, and can be designed or modified to accomplish improved biological activity over SIP polypeptide, such as, for example higher affinity for SIP receptor, or resistance to degradation in the mammal Peptides and peptoids can be prepared synthetically in libraries for screening for a favored biological activity, for example, increased binding to SIP receptor Exemplary synthesis of some of these small molecules are described below The small molecules libraries designed based on variations in SIP receptor binding sites of a SIP polypeptide can be screened for ability to block PI 3kmase activity or MAP kinase activity, for example, in a cell-base assay in microwell plates, as described generally above, and more specifically in the examples Small molecule libraries that are peptide and peptoid derivatives of SIP are made as follows A "library" of peptides may be synthesized and used following the methods disclosed in U S Patent No 5,010,175, (the ' 175 patent) and in PCT W091/17823 In method of the ' 175 patent, a suitable peptide synthesis support, for example, a resin, is coupled to a mixture of appropriately protected, activated amino acids The method described in W091/17823 is similar but simplifies the process of determining which peptides are responsible for any observed alteration of gene expression in a responsive cell. The methods described in W091/17823 and U.S. Patent No. 5, 194,392 enable the preparation of such pools and subpools by automated techniques in parallel, such that all synthesis and resynthesis may be performed in a matter of days. Further alternative agents include small molecules, including peptide analogs and derivatives, that can act as stimulators or inhibitors of gene expression, or as ligands or antagonists. Some general means contemplated for the production of peptides, analogs or derivatives are outlined in CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY OF AMINO ACIDS, PEPTIDES, AND PROTEINS - A SURVEY OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS, Weinstein, B. ed., Marcell Dekker, Inc. , publ. New York (1983). Moreover, substitution of D-amino acids for the normal L- stereoisomer can be carried out to increase the half-life of the molecule. Peptoids, polymers comprised of monomer units of at least some substituted amino acids, can act as small molecule stimulators or inhibitors herein and can be synthesized as described in PCT 91/19735.. Presently preferred amino acid substitutes are N-alkylated derivatives of glycine, which are easily synthesized and incoφorated into polypeptide chains. However, any monomer units which allow for the sequence specific synthesis of pools of diverse molecules are appropriate for use in producing peptoid molecules. The benefits of these molecules for the puφose of the invention is that they occupy different conformational space than a peptide and as such are more resistant to the action of proteases. Peptoids are easily synthesized by standard chemical methods. The preferred method of synthesis is the "submonomer" technique described by R. Zuckermann et al. , J. Am. Chem. Soc. (1992) 114: 10646-7. Synthesis by solid phase techniques of heterocyclic organic compounds in which N-substituted glycine monomer units forms a backbone is described in copending application entitled "Synthesis of N-Substituted Oligomers" filed on June 7, 1995 and is herein incoφorate by reference in full. Combinatorial libraries of mixtures of such heterocyclic organic compounds can then be assayed for the ability to alter gene expression. Synthesis by solid phase of other heterocyclic organic compounds in combinatorial libraries is also described in copending application U.S. Serial No. 08/485,006 entitled " Combinatorial Libraries of Substrate-Bound Cyclic Organic Compounds" filed on June 7, 1995, herein incoφorated by reference in full. Highly substituted cyclic structures can be synthesized on a solid support by combining the submonomer method with powerful solution phase chemistry. Cyclic compounds containing one, two, three or more fused rings are formed by the submonomer method by first synthesizing a linear backbone followed by subsequent intramolecular or intermolecular cyclization as described in the same application. Ribozymes and Antisense Where the therapeutic agent is a ribozyme, the ribozyme can be chemically synthesized or prepared in a vector for a gene therapy protocol including preparation of DNA encoding the ribozyme sequence. The synthetic ribozymes or a vector for gene therapy delivery can be encased in liposomes for delivery, or the synthetic ribozyme can be administered with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A ribozyme is a polynucleotide that has the ability to catalyze the cleavage of a polynucleotide substrate. Ribozymes can be prepared and used as described in Long et al.,, FASEB J. 7: 25 (1993) and Symons, Ann. Rev. Biochem. 61: 641 (1992), Perrotta e al.,, Biochem. 31: 16, 17 (1992); and U.S. Pat. No. 5,225,337, U.S. Pat. No. 5, 168,053, U.S. Pat. No. 5,168,053 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,116,742, Ojwang et al., , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 10802-10806 (1992), U.S. Pat. No. 5,254,678 and in U.S. Patent No. 5, 144,019, U.S. Patent No. 5,225,337, U.S. Patent No. 5, 116,742, U.S. Patent No. 5, 168,053. Preparation and use of such ribozyme fragments in a hammerhead structure are described by Koizumi et al.,, Nucleic Acids Res. 17:7059-7071 (1989).. Preparation and use of ribozyme fragments in a haiφin structure are described by Chowrira and Burke, Nucleic Acids Res. 20:2835 (1992). The hybridizing region of the ribozyme or of an antisense polynucleotide may be modified by linking the displacement arm in a linear arrangement, or alternatively, may be prepared as a branched structure as described in Horn and Urdea, Nucleic Acids Res. 17:6959-67 (1989). The basic structure of the ribozymes or antisense polynucleotides may also be chemically altered in ways quite familiar to those skilled in the art. Chemically synthesized ribozymes and antisense molecules can be administered as synthetic oligonucleotide derivatives modified by monomeric units. Ribozymes and antisense molecules can also be placed in a vector and expressed intracellularly in a gene therapy protocol. Assay for function of SIP and modulators of SIP Where the SIP polypeptide or modulator is directed to regulate PI 3kinase products, a small molecule, or other therapeutic can be screened for this function. Analysis of PI 3-kinase products in vivo can accomplished using oocytes that are labeled with [ 32 P]orthophosphate. Phosphoiipids can be extracted and analyzed by TLC and HPLC essentially as previously described in Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996) and Liu et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 75:3563-3570 (1995). Briefly, oocytes are injected with SIP cRNA, pl lO* cRNA or both, and incubated. Oocytes are then washed and either lysed directly (pl 10* experiments) or stimulated with insulin at room temperature. The oocytes were placed on ice, the buffer aspirated and lysed with vigorous vortexing and repeated pipeting. Chloroform is then added and the mixture vortexed to extract lipids. The extracts were then centrifuged and the lower, chloroform phase removed to a new tube, the interface material and aqueous layer re-extracted with an equal volume of chloroform and the organic phases combined. The extracts were then separated on thin layer chromatography, de-acylated and analyzed by HPLC as described in Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996) and Liu et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 75:3563-3570 (1995). PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 was identified using 32 P-labeled standards generated with pl 10* as described in Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996). Production or lack of production of the PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 is an indicator of the presence or the absence of PI 3kinase activity. Where SIP is inhibited, the PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 will be made, and where SIP is not inhibited, or where SIP activity is agonized or mimicked, the PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 will not be present after the assay. Similarly, analysis of MAP kinase phosphorylation can be accomplished with oocytes that were lysed and clarified by centrifugation. Aliquots of lysate containing equal amounts of total protein and representing equal numbers of oocytes can be analyzed by 10% SDS-PAGE and immunoblotted with polyclonal antibodies specific for the phosphorylated form of MAP kinase. Where SIP is active, or analogues of SIP are active, MAP kinase is not phosphorylated, as compared to when SIP is antagonized or not expressed in a system. Similarly, analysis of germinal vessicle breakdown, or maturation, of oocytes can be accomplished in oocytes by injecting SIP cRNA, treating with insulin, and scoring for maturation 8- 24 hours later. Alternatively, SIP and pl 10* cRNA can be co-injected, and oocytes scored for germinal vessicle breakdown 8-48 hours later. When SIP is active, maturation in response to insulin or expression of pl 10* is inhibited, as compared to when SIP is antagonized or not expressed in a system. Use of SIP Discovery that SIP is an SH2 domain-containing protein makes SIP an important signaling molecule. The activity of SIP includes becoming tyrosine phosphorylated and binding the PTB domain of SHC in response to activation of hematopoetic cells. SIP is a phosphatidyhnositol- and inositol- polyphosphate 5-phosphatase with specificity in vitro for substrates phosohorylated at the 3' position. Phosphatidyhnositol 3'-kinase (PI 3-kinase) is an enzyme that is involved in mitogenic signaling and whose phosphorylated lipid products are predicted to be substrates for SIP. To further elucidate the functional aspects of SIP, we show that SIP can modulate signaling by PI .- kinase, and test this by in vivo by injecting SIP cRNAs into Xenopus oocytes. SIP reduced germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) induced by expression of a constitutively activated form of PI 3-kinase (pl lO*; pl lO* is described in U.S. Serial No. 60/017693 filed in 1996) and blocked GVBD induced by insulin. SIP had no effect on progesterone-induced GVBD. Catalytically inactive SIP had little effect on insulin- or PI 3-kinase-induced GVBD. Expression of SIP, but not catalytically inactive SIP, also blocked insulin-induced MAP kinase phosphorylation in oocytes. SIP specifically reduced the level of phosphatidyhnositol (3,4,5) triphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 ) generated in oocytes in response to insulin stimulation Although the invention is not limited to theories of how the invention works, these results taken together strongly suggest that phosphatidyhnositol 5-phosphatases can inhibit specific signaling pathways in vivo by hydrolyzing a product of PI 3-kinase. Further, our data suggest that the generation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 by PI 3- kinase is necessary for insulin-induced GVBD in Xenopus oocytes. SIP is tyrosine phosphorylated and binds the PTB domain of SHC in a variety of activated hematopoetic cell lines, but not in quiescent cells. SIP also contains proline-rich motifs which bind to the SH3 domains of GRB2. SIP is a member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family which hydrolyzes the 5' phosphate from both inositol- and phosphatidyhnositol- polyphosphates. SIP has a striking substrate specificity in vitro for those inositol and phosphatidylinositols which are also phosphorylated at the 3' position. Therefore, PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 , a known product of PI 3-kinase in vivo, would be predicted to be a substrate for the enzymatic activity of SIP. Additional members of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family have been recently identified that are specific for PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 and form signal transduction complexes in cells as described in Jackson et al, EMBO 74:4490-4500 (1995) and Liu et al, J. of Biol Chem. in press (1996). Thus, hydrolysis of PI 3-kinase products by phosphatidyhnositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases may be a general mechanism for the regulation of PI 3-kinase effects, although the invention is not limited to theories of mechanism. Towards elucidating a mechanism of action for SIP, we tested the hypothesis that phosphatidyhnositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases like SIP may regulate PI 3-kinase activity in vivo by injecting SIP cRNAs into Xenopus oocytes. We show that SIP inhibits germinal vesicle breakdown induced by a constitutively activated PI 3-kinase. Further, we show that SIP blocks insulin-induced GVBD and phosphorylation of MAP kinase, processes which are thought to be mediated by PI 3-kinase in oocytes. Finally, we show directly that SIP reduces PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 produced in vivo. The data we generated supports the theory that SIP is a regulator of PI 3-kinase. We previously reported that the human Signaling Inositol Polyphosphate 5-Phosphatases (SIPs) represent a family of molecules which are likely to be splice variants of the same gene. We postulated that the full-length form of SIP corresponded to a 145 kDa protein, SIP- 145, based on the existence of a open reading frame without termination cordons 5' to the first methionine codon (methionine 41) in the longest SIP cDNA we cloned SIP has been variously reported to have a molecular mass of 130, 140, 145 or 150 kDa(7, 18, 22) To better characterize the full-length form of SIP for subsequent experiments, lysates of unstimulated BAL17 B cells and anti-SHC lmmunoprecipitates of activated BALI 7 cell lysates were lmmunoblotted with anti-SIP antisera The largest protein specifically recognized by anti-SIP antisera migrated at an apparent moleculai weight of approximately 130-135 kDa, as measured by quantitative comparison to molecular weight standards, and migrated significantly faster than a known 148 kDa protein, phospholipase C- gamma This suggested that no 145 kDa form of SIP protein exists in these cells Further, because translation starting at methionine 41 would produce a protein of predicted molecular weight of 133 kDa, this suggested that methionine 41 is the translation start site for the largest form of SIP To investigate further, recombinant SIP protein corresponding to residues 41-976 was expressed in COS 6M cells This recombinant SIP migrated at the exact same apparent molecular weight as the largest form of endogenous SIP present in either lysates or anti-SHC lmmunoprecipitates from B cells These results strongly suggest that full-length SIP corresponds to SIP-130, contains residues 41-976 and has an apparent molecular mass of approximately 130-135 kDa This form of SIP was therefore used in subsequent experiments Attempts to directly sequence the NH2-termιnus of the largest form of SIP protein purified from BAL17 B cells were unsuccessful, presumably because the NH2-termιnus was blocked We have observed that both recombinant SIP expressed in COS cells and endogenous SIP from B cells is often seen as a doublet on immunoblots The lower form may represent a degradation product of the larger form, the product of translation from n internal methionine, or a splice variant The lower form migrates at an apparent molecular weight of 125 kDa, and is referred to as pl25, or SIP-125 SIP was originally identified as an inositol- and phosphatidyhnositol-polyphosphate 5- phosphatase by the presence of sequence motifs homologous to other inositol polyphosphate 5- phosphatases These sequences are presumed to constitute part of the catalytic domain, but mutagenesis studies of SIP to demonstrate this directly have not been reported We wished to generate a mutant SIP protein which is catalytically inactive to use as a control in subsequent experiments We therefore generated SIP constructs with point mutations or deletions within these conserved motifs and tagged with the influenza hemagglutinin (HA) epitope The mutant protem. were expressed in COS cells, immunoprecipitated with anti-HA antibodies, and tested for inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase activity SIP proteins with a substitution of alanine for aspartic acid 460 (D460A SIP), or with a deletion of amino acids 454-468 (SIP EIP) were expressed equally well as wild-type SIP, but contained no detectable inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase activity This expeπment demonstrates directly that the these residues are necessary for SIP catalytic activity and support the hypothesis that the LPSWCDRVL (SEQ ID No 33) motif comprises part of the catalytic center of inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases The identification of a family of phosphatidyhnositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases which are specific for 3 '-phosphorylated substrates in vitro, has suggested a novel mechanism for the regulation of PI 3-kmase signaling However, the activity of these enzymes in vivo has not been demonstrated, nor is it known whether they would potentiate or inhibit signaling by PI 3-kιnase We have demonstrated that one member of this family, SIP, can inhibit PI 3-kιnase effects in vivo Using a constitutively activated form of PI 3-kιnase, pl lO*, we showed that SIP inhibits oocyte maturation induced by PI 3-kιnase in the absence of added growth factors or hormones Further, SIP blocks insulin-induced phosphorylation of MAP kinase and GVBD, processes which are thought to be mediated by PI 3 kinase in oocytes SIP did not effect GVBD induced by progesterone, demonstrating that the effect of SIP is specific The lack of an effect of SIP on progesterone-induced GVBD is consistent with a report that progesterone-induced oocyte maturation is not inhibited by the PI 3-kmase inhibitor wortmannin and does not require PI 3-kιnase activation The ability of SIP to inhibit insulin and PI 3-kιnase signaling is hkely to be due to hydrolysis of a biologically active product of PI 3-kιnase, PtdIns(3,4,5)P-( First, as mentioned above, SIP inhibited processes known to be dependent on PI 3-kmase activity Second, mutant SIP proteins which were demonstrated to be catalytically inactive did not inhibit signaling by either insulin or pl lO*Fιnally, we have shown directly that expression of SIP results in significant decreases in PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 generated in vivo in response to either insulin treatment Hydrolysis in vivo of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 , but not PtdIns(4,5)P 2 (Figure 6), is consistent with the substrate specificity of SIP previously defined m vitro Taken together, these results suggest that generation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 is necessary for GVBD induced by insulin , and that SIP inhibits signaling by hydrolyzing PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 Direction injection into oocytes of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 generated in vitro with pl 10* did not induce GVBD Because the amount of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 which can be generated in vitro by this method is limited, the dose of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 injected may have been insufficient to induce GVBD Further, a single injection of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 may not mimic the kinetics of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 generated by pllO* or in response to insulin Recently published data on the function of SIP in mammalian cells support the hypothesis that SIP is an inhibitor of signaling It has been reported that SIP associates with the inhibitory FcgammaRIIB receptor in B cells and mast cells Co-hgation of this receptor with FceRI or FcgammaRIII on mast cells inhibits degranulation, and co-hgation with the antigen receptor on B cells inhibits B cell activation. SIP bound to a 13 amino acid motif in the cytoplasmic domain of the FcgammaRIIB receptor which has been shown to be necessary for inhibitory signaling by FcgammaRIIB. It has also been reported that expression of SIP in myeloid cells results in growth inhibition. Our data demonstrate one mechanism by which SIP might inhibit signaling in these cells, and the invention is not limited by theory of how the invention may work. The SH2 domain of SIP was neither necessary nor sufficient for inhibition of insulin signaling. These data exclude the possibility that the SH2 domain accounted for the inhibitory effect of SIP. In mammalian cells, the SH2 domain is likely to participate in targeting of SIP to signaling complexes. The absence of a requirement for the SH2 domain for SIP activity in oocytes likely reflects either the effect of over-expression of SIP, or the absence of the endogenous target of the SH2 domain in oocytes. In addition to the SH2 domain, SIP contains binding sites for the PTB domain of SHC and for the SH3 domains of GRB2. Formation of signal complexes may regulate SIP activity by changing its sub-cellular localization or by bringing SIP into contact with regulatory molecules. In conclusion, we have shown that a phosphatidyhnositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase can inhibit biological effects mediated by PI 3-kinase. We propose that this family of enzymes can participate in the downregulation of PI 3-kinase-mediated signaling during mitogenesis, transformation and immune cell function. The nucleic acid constructs that contain the novel polypeptide coding sequence ("SIP coding sequence"), and variants thereof derived from SIP, (lor puφoses of this invention, also called "the SIP coding sequence"), with or withoul a signal sequence, can be used in a gene therapy protocol by delivery in gene delivery vehicles to replace cells and tissues lacking in SIP activity or activity of a polypeptide from the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family, for control of abnormal cell growth or other cellular responses by administration via gene therapy of recombinant SIP, or a SIP variant or analogue, or a signaling incompetent variant that acts as an antagonist or competitor of native or fully functional SIP. A gene therapy protocol can be designed to effect modulation of a biological pathway, where expression of a modulator of a signaling pathway is accomplished, for example a dominant negative repressor of a signaling pathway, including a modulator modulating such pathways as, for example, the ras pathway, MAP kinase pathway, the PI 3-kinase pathway, or a pathway mediated by the interaction of SIP with another protein. The gene delivery vehicle containing a modulator of a SIP- related pathway can be accomplished by in vivo expression of SIP or a derivative of SIP. Gene therapy strategies for delivery of such constructs can utilize viral or non-viral vector approaches in in vivo or ex vivo modality. Expression of such coding sequence can be induced using endogenous mammalian or heterologous promoters. Expression of the coding sequence in vivo can be either constitutive or regulated. Generally, for delivery using viral vectors, any of a number of viral vectors can be used, as described in Jolly, Cancer Gene Therapy 1: 51-64 (1994). For example, the SIP coding sequence can be inserted into plasmids designed for expression in retroviral vectors, as described in Kimura et al., Human Gene Therapy (1994) 5: 845-852, adenoviral vectors, as described in Connelly et ai, Human Gene Therapy (1995) 6: 185-193, adeno-associated viral vectors, as described in Kaplitt et ai, Nature Genetics (1994) 6: 148-153 and sindbis vectors. Promoters that are suitable for use with these vectors include the Moloney retroviral LTR, CMV promoter and the mouse albumin promoter. Replication incompetent free virus can be produced and injected directly into the animal or humans or by transduction of an autologous cell ex vivo, followed by injection in vivo as described in Zatloukal et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (1994) 91: 5148-5152. The native or altered SIP coding sequence can also be inserted into plasmid for expression of the SIP polypeptide in vivo or ex vivo. For in vivo therapy, the coding sequence can be delivered by direct injection into tissue or by intravenous infusion. Promoters suitable for use in this manner include endogenous and heterologous promoters such as CMV. Further, a synthetic T7T7/T70B promoter can be constructed in accordance with Chen et al. Nucleic Acids Res. 22: 2114-2120 (1994), where the T7 polymerase is under the regulatory control of its own promoter and drives the transcription of the SIP coding sequence, which is also placed under the control of a T7 promoter. The coding sequence can be injected in a formulation comprising a buffer that can stabilize the coding sequence and facilitate transduction thereof into cells and/or provide targeting, as described in Zhu et ai, Science (1993) 267: 209-211. Expression of the SIP coding sequence in vivo upon delivery for gene therapy puφoses by either viral or non-viral vectors can be regulated for maximal efficacy and safety by use of regulated gene expression promoters as described in Gossen et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (1992) 89:5547-5551. For example, the SIP coding sequence can be regulated by tetracycline responsive promoters. These promoters can be regulated in a positive or negative fashion by treatment with the regulator molecule. For non-viral delivery of the SIP coding sequence, the sequence can be inserted into conventional vectors that contain conventional control sequences for high level expression, and then be incubated with synthetic gene transfer molecules such as polymeric DNA-binding cations like polylysine, protamine, and albumin, linked to cell targeting ligands such as asialoorosomucoid, as described in Wu and Wu, J. Biol. Chem. (1987) 262: 4429-4432; insulin, as described in Hucked et al., Biochem. Pharmacol. 40: 253-263 (1990); galactose, as described in Plank et al, Bioconjugate Chem. 5:533-539 (1992); lactose, as described in Midoux et al., Nucleic Acids Res. 21: 871-873 (1993); or transferrin, as described in Wagner et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:3410-3414 (1990). Other delivery systems include the use of liposomes to encapsulate DNA comprising the SIP gene under the control of a variety of tissue-specific or ubiquitously-active promoters, as described in Nabel et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90: 11307-11311 (1993), arid Philip et al, Mol. Cell Biol. 14: 2411-2418 (1994). Further non-viral delivery suitable for use includes mechanical delivery systems such as the biolistic approach, as described in Woffendin et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (1994) 91(24): 11581-11585. Moreover, the SIP coding sequence and the product of expression of such can be delivered through deposition of photopolymerized hydrogel materials. Other conventional methods for gene delivery that can be used for delivery of the SIP coding sequence include, for example, use of hand held gene transfer particle gun, as described in U.S. 5, 149,655; use of ionizing radiation for activating transferred gene, as descπbed in U.S. 5,206, 152 and PCT application WO 92/11033. Application of gene therapy technology with regard to SIP and its analogues or variants can be made in disease states where, for example, activity of any of the inositol polyphosphate 5- phosphatases is deficient, including, for example, a deficiency in activity of SIP. It is also conceived by the inventors that gene therapy using SIP and its analogues or variants is appropπate when treating conditions of abnormal cell growth where, for example, in vivo expression of SIP competitors, antagonists or dominant negatives interrupts the normal function of SIP and so interrupts the signaling pathways that SIP is a part of, and the cellular responses that result frorr these pathways, including but not limited to cellular proliferation. In general, gene therapy can be applied according to the invention in all situations where SIP acts to modulate a signaling pathway, including potentiation, activation or inhibition of the pathway, by administering according to a gene therapy protocol, of a sufficient amount of a SIP analogue, variant, or dominant negative, for example, for modulating the normal activity of SIP in a given signaling pathway. The signaling pathways that can be modulated by gene therapy according to the invention may include, but are not limited to, for example, the ras and PI 3-kinase pathways. The modulations achievable by gene therapy employing SIP include any modulation of any cellular response that is generated in part by the activity of SIP. For treating disease states including diseases caused by deficiencies in a member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family such as, for example, Lowe's oculocerebralrenal disease, or also including diseases cause by cellular proliferation by a signaling pathway of which a component of the pathway is a member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family, gene therapy to replace a missing gene or to interrupt or modulate the activity of existing genes can be applied according to the invention. First, polynucleotide constructs including a coding sequence for the missing gene or active fragment or variant thereof, or for the inhibitor of the activity of a gene in the pathway sought to be modulated or interrupted, and regulatory sequences for expression in vivo are designed and assimilated. The construct is then administered by standard administration methods for gene therapy protocols. For the puφose of the invention, based on the sequence and function of the novel polypeptides herein, assays can be developed for screening small molecule library pools for functional SIP, modulators, for example, inhibitors, antagonists, and agonists for use in controlling abnormal cell growth, for example, in tumor conditions or other conditions induced by uncontrolled abnormal cell growth along a signaling pathway responsible for cell proliferation, such as, for example, a ras pathway, a MAP kinase pathway or a PI 3-kinase pathway. Small molecule inhibitors can also be used to inhibit, for example, SIP activity for inhibiting other cellular or signal transduction activities attributable to SIP or other members of the inositol polyphosphate 5- phosphatase. These inhibitors, antagonists, or agonists are then administered to the animal, and in the case of cancer locally at the tumor site, for example, and can be administered with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, including, for example, liposomes compositions such as Depofoam™, and other carriers such as, for example, Focalgel™. More specifically, gene therapy vehicles for delivery of constructs including a coding sequence of a therapeutic of the invention, to be delivered to the mammal for expression in the mammal, for example, a SIP coding sequence, or also including a nucleic acid sequence of all or a portion of SIP for delivery can be administered either locally or systemically. These constructs can utilize viral or non-viral vector approaches in in vivo or ex vivo modality. Expression of such coding sequence can be induced using endogenous mammalian or heterologous promoters. Expression of the coding sequence in vivo can be either constitutive or regulated. Administration of a polynucleotide encoding SIP polypeptide for expression in the mammal in a gene therapy protocol, can be provided by a viral vector, including for example, a vector of a retrovirus, an adenovirus, an adeno-associated virus, a heφes virus, an alpha virus, for example a semiliki forest virus, a sindbis virus, including sindbis DNA or sindbis RNA, or ELVS DNA. Retroviral gene therapy is described in WO 91/02805, and EP 334 301 , both incoφorated by reference in full. The retroviral vectors described in these patent publications can be used for retroviral delivery of a polynucleotide sequence encoding a SIP, or a portion, fusion, variant, or derivative of a SIP, for expression in a mammal. For example, a polynucleotide encoding a SIP can be placed in a retroviral vector, for example, a retroviral vector derived from an adenovirus, an adeno-associated virus, a heφes virus, an alpha virus, an ELVS virus and a sindbis virus. The alpha virus retroviral vector can be derived from a semliki forest virus. Standard techniques known in the art of retroviral vector gene delivery can be used to incoφorate an appropπate SIP coding sequence, or fusion coding sequence for retroviral gene delivery to the mammal. Where the SIP is expressed in the mammal, it can be expressed as a biologically active portion, variant, derivative or fusion of a SIP polypeptide. Polynucleotide sequences encoding SIP can be delivered by any gene delivery vehicle. The gene delivery vehicles can include, for example, naked plasmid DNA delivery by liposome or particle-mediated gene transfer, or delivery of a polynucleotide coding sequence in a viral or other vector. Polynucleotide delivery strategies for delivery of constructs including a coding sequence for expression in the mammal, can be administered by a gene therapy protocol, either locally or systemically. These constructs can utilize viral or non-viral vector approaches in in vivo or ex vivo modality. Ex vivo means a process whereby the cells of a mammal are removed and selected for those for transfection, the selected cells are made so that they will not replicate, and are transfected with the polynucleotide to be expressed. The transfected cells are then placed back in the mammal, and the polynucleotide is expressed in the mammal. Expression of a coding sequence can be induced using endogenous mammalian or heterologous promoters. In vivo delivery involves directly administering a polynucleotide sequence into the mammal in the region of target cells for expression, for example, in the region of proliferating cells. In a process facilitated by the gene delivery vehicle, the cells take up the polynucleotide. Expression of the coding sequence in vivo, whether the polynucleotide is directly injected, or whether cells that are removed and replaced after transfection are used, can be either constitutive or regulated. The constructions and use of, for example, the retroviral or adenoviral or naked or lipid encased are known in the art as described in Roussel et al, Nature 325: 549 (1987). The effects of the gene therapy administration are expected to be dose related, and optimal dosage for a particular type of condition will have to be determined, as is appropriate for the particular disease, and may be influenced by such factors as the mammal's level of progression of the disease, and the mammal's responsiveness to an initial treatment. Gene therapy can be practiced according to the invention by delivery to a region in a mammal genes that are under regulatory control of appropriate regulatory sequences for transformation or infection of the cells in a particular region. Gene therapy can be practiced as follows using coding regions for any SIP therapeutic agent appropriate for treatment of the SIP related condition. For delivery using viral vectors, any of a number of viral vectors conventional in the art can be used, as described in Jolly, Cancer Gene Therapy 1: 51-64 (1994). For example, the SIP coding sequence can be inserted into plasmids designed for expression in retroviral vectors, as described in Kimura et al., Human Gene Therapy (1994) 5: 845-852, adenoviral vectors, as described in Connelly et al, Human Gene Therapy (1995) 6: 185-193, adeno-associated viral vectors, as described in Kaplitt et al. Nature Genetics (1994) 6: 148-153 and sindbis vectors. Recombinant retroviruses and various uses thereof have been described in numerous references including, for example, Mann et al. (Cell 55:153, 1983), Cane and Mulligan (Proc. Nat'l. Acad. Sci. USA 87:6349, 1984), Miller et al., Human Gene Therapy 1 :5-14, 1990, U.S. Patent Nos.4,405,712; 4,861 ,719; 4,980,289 and PCT Application Nos. WO 89/02,468; WO 89/05,349 and WO 90/02,806, all incoφorated by reference in full. Briefly, numerous retroviral gene delivery vehicles may be utilized within the context of the present invention, including for example those described in EP 0,415,731 ; WO 90/07936; WO 94/03622; WO 93/25698; WO 93/25234; U.S. Patent No. 5,219,740; WO 9311230; WO 9310218; Vile and Hart, Cancer Res. 55:3860-3864, 1993; Vile and Hart, Cancer Res. 55:962-967, 1993; Ram et al., Cancer Res. 55:83-88, 1993; Takamiya et al., J. Neurosci. Res. 55:493-503, 1992; Baba et al., J. Neurosurg. 79:729-735, 1993 (U.S. Patent No. 4,777, 127, GB 2,200,651 , EP 0,345,242 and WO91/02805). Retroviral gene delivery vehicles of the present invention may be readily constructed from a wide variety of retroviruses, including for example, B, C, and D type retroviruses as well as spumaviruses and lentiviruses (see RNA Tumor Viruses, Second Edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 1985). Retroviruses for the preparation or construction of retroviral gene delivery vehicles of the present invention include retroviruses selected from the group consisting of Avian Leukosis Virus, Bovine Leukemia Virus, Murine Leukemia Virus, Mink-Cell Focus-Inducing Virus, Murine Sarcoma Virus, Reticuloendotheliosis virus and Rous Sarcoma Virus. Also Murine Leukemia Viruses include 4070A and 1504A (Hartley and Rowe, J. Virol. 79: 19-25, 1976), Abelson (ATCC No. VR-999), Friend (ATCC No. VR-245), Graffi, Gross (ATCC No. VR-590), Kirsten, Harvey Sarcoma Virus and Rauscher (ATCC No. VR-998), and Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (ATCC No. VR-190). Such retroviruses may be readily obtained from depositories or collections such as the American Type Culture Collection ("ATCC"; Rockville, Maryland), or isolated from known sources using commonly available techniques. Any of the above retroviruses may be readily utilized in order to assemble or construct retroviral gene delivery vehicles given the disclosure provided herein, and standard recombinant techniques (e.g. , Sambrook et al, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 2d ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 1989; Kunkle, PNAS 82:488, 1985). In addition, within certain embodiments of the invention, portions of the retroviral gene delivery vehicles may be derived from different retroviruses. For example, retrovector LTRs may be derived from a Murine Sarcoma Virus, a tRNA binding site from a Rous Sarcoma Virus, a packaging signal from a Murine Leukemia Virus, and an origin of second strand synthesis from an Avian Leukosis Virus. Recombinant retroviruses may be made by introducing a vector construct as discussed above, into a cell (termed a "packaging cell") which contains those elements necessary for production of infectious recombinant retrovirus which are lacking in the vector construct. Packaging cell lines suitable for use with the above-described retrovector constructs may be readily prepared (see U.S. Serial No. 08/240,030, filed May 9, 1994; see also WO 92/05266), and utilized to create producer cell lines (also termed vector cell lines or "VCLs") for the production of recombinant vector particles. A wide variety of retrovector constructs may be utilized within the present invention in order to prepare recombinant retroviruses. For example, retrovector constructs can be provided comprising a 5' LTR, a tRNA binding site, a packaging signal, one or more heterologous sequences, an origin of second strand DNA synthesis and a 3' LTR, wherein the vector construct lacks gag/pol or env coding sequences. The construction of recombinant retroviral vectors is described in greater detail in an application entitled "Recombinant Retroviruses" (U.S.S.N. 07/586,603, filed September 21 , 1990, which is hereby incoφorated by reference in full). These recombinant retroviral vectors may be used to generate transduction competent retroviral vector particles by introducing them into appropriate packaging cell lines (see U.S.S.N. 07/800,921 , which is hereby incoφorated by reference in its entirety). Adenovirus vectors may also be readily prepared and utilized given the disclosure provided herein (see also Berkner, Biotechniques 6:616-627, 1988, and Rosenfeld et al., Science 252:431- 434, 1991, WO 93/07283, WO 93/06223, and WO 93/07282, which are incoφorated by reference in full). Vector constructs of the present invention may also be utilized with other viral vectors, including for example poliovirus (Evans et al. , Nature 559:385-388, 1989, and Sabin, J. of Biol. Standardization 7: 115-118, 1973); rhinovirus (Arnold, J. Cell. Biochem. L401-405, 1990); pox viruses, such as canary pox virus or vaccinia virus (Fisher-Hoch et al. , PNAS 86:317-321, 1989; Flexner et al., Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sci. 569:86-103, 1989; Flexner et al. , Vaccine 8: 17-21 , 1990; U.S. Patent Nos. 4,603,112 and 4,769,330; WO 89/01973); SV40 (Mulligan et al. , Nature 277: 108- 114, 1979); influenza virus (Luytjes et al., Cell 59: 1107-1113, 1989; McMicheal et al. , The New England Journal of Medicine 509: 13-17, 1983; and Yap et al., Nature 275:238-239, 1978); parovirus such as adeno-associated virus (Samulski et al., Journal of Virology 65:3822-3828, 1989, and Mendelson et al. , Virology 766: 154-165, 1988); heφes (Kit, Adv. Exp. Med. Biol. 275:219- 236, 1989); SV40; HIV; measles (EP 0 440,219); corona virus and Sindbis virus (Xiong et al. , Science 254: 1188-1191, 1989; U.S. Patent Nos. 5,091 ,309 and 5,217,879). Other adenoviral vectors are described in WO 95/14091, incoφorated by reference in full. Retrovirus and adenovirus vectors used for gene delivery are associated with certain complications and disadvantages. An alternative vector that is neither pathogenic or immunogenic can be a parvovirus adeno-associated virus (AAV). AAV has a smaller genome than adenovirus, most of which can be replaced by foreign DNA. Parvoviruses are small, icohedral viruses about 25 nm in diameter containing a single strand DNA genome of about 5 kb. They consist of two major classes: the dependoviruses, including AAV and its subtypes (AAV1 , AAV2, AAV3, AAV4 and AAV5) and the autonomous parvoviruses. The wild-type (wt) AAV has been shown to integrate into human chromosome 19 in a site-specific manner, and it has been suggested that the AAV-based vector system may prove to be a safer alternative to the more commonly used retrovirus and adenovirus-based vectors; because approximately 90 % of the human population is sero-positive for AAV, accidental infection by recombinant AAV is not likely to be problematic. A disadvantage of AAV vector in some clinical indications is the generalized nature of AAV infection. Previous studies have indicated that AAV possesses a wide host range that transcends the species barrier. Additionally, AAV vectors can be formed from more than one AAV, forming a hybrid AAV vector, as described in U.S. Patent No. 5,252,479. Alpha viruses, including sindbis and ELVS viruses can be gene delivery vehicles for the invention. Alpha viruses are described in WO 94/21792, WO 92/10578 and WO 95/07994, all incoφorated by reference in full. Several different alphavirus vector systems may be constructed and utilized within the present invention. Representative examples of such systems include those described within U.S. Patent Nos. 5,091,309 and 5,217,879. Particularly preferred alphavirus vectors for use within the present invention include those which are described within WO 95/07994, and U.S. Serial No. 08/405,627. Sindbis vector constructs, as well as numerous similar vector constructs, may be readily prepared essentially as described in U.S. Serial No. 08/198,450. Exemplary Sindbis vector constructs, as well as numerous similar vector constructs, may be readily prepared essentially as described in U.S. Serial No. 08/405,627, which is incoφorated herein by reference in full. As will be evident to one of ordinary skill in the art given the disclosure provided herein, when utilizing viral gene delivery vehicles, the efficiency of packaging and hence, viral titer, is to some degree dependent upon the size of the sequence to be packaged. Thus, in order to increase the efficiency of packaging and the production particle virus, additional non-coding sequences may be added to the gene delivery vehicle. Moreover, within certain embodiments of the invention it may be desired to increase or decrease viral titer. This increase or decrease may be accomplished by increasing or decreasing the size of the heterologous sequence, and hence the efficiency of packaging. The coding sequence of, for example SIP or any of the other recombinant therapeutics listed herein, and chimeric and analog molecules thereof, can also be inserted into plasmids for expression of the polypeptide in vivo or ex vivo. For in vivo therapy, the coding sequence can be delivered by direct injection, or by delivery such as, for example, those systems described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,137,510, 5,213,570, and 5,269,326. Promoters suitable for use in this manner include endogenous and heterologous promoters such as those described herein. Gene delivery vehicles may be constructed to include a promoter such as SV40, cytomegalovirus ("CMV"), or an internal ribosomal binding site ("IRBS"). Further, a synthetic T7T7/T7 promoter can be constructed. Any promoter appropriate for the expression of the gene selected for the therapy is. contemplated by the method of the invention. The coding sequence can be injected in a formulation comprising a buffer that can stablize the coding sequence and facilitate transduction thereof into cells and/or provide targeting, as described in Zhu et al, Science (1993) 267: 209-211. Expression of such coding sequence can be induced using endogenous mammalian or heterologous promoters. Expression of the coding sequence in vivo can be either constitutive or regulated. Expression of the coding sequence of a desired polypeptide or replication of a ribozyme or antisense polynucleotide in vivo upon delivery for gene therapy puφoses by either viral or non-viral vectors can be regulated for maximal efficacy and safety by use of regulated gene expression promoters as described in Gossen et al, Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA (1992) 89:5547-5551. For example, the polynucleotide transcription and/or translation can be regulated by tetracycline responsive promoters. These promoters can be regulated in a positive or negative fashion by treatment with the regulator molecule. In addition to the above viral-based vectors, numerous non-viral gene delivery vehicles may likewise be utilized within the context of the present invention. Representative examples of such gene delivery vehicles include direct delivery of nucleic acid expression vectors, naked DNA alone (WO 90/11092), polycationic lipids and liposomes encapsulating nucleic acid (single or double stranded DNA or RNA) expression vectors, polycation condensed DNA linked or unlinked to killed adenovirus (Curiel et al., Hum. Gene Ther. 5:147-154, 1992), DNA linked to a ligand with or without one of the high affinity pairs described above (Wu et al, J. of Biol. Chem 264: 16985-16987, 1989), and certain eukaryotic cells (e.g. , producer cells - see U .S. Serial No. 08/240/030, filed May 9, 1994, and U.S. Serial No. 07/800,921). All such DNA vectors can be delivered as a gene delivery vehicle where an initial RNA pol II transcription encodes a viral bacteriophage or other source RNA replicase and in the same or a separate transcript, an RNA message that can be amplified in the cytoplasm by the RNA replicase, encoding the desired gene to be explored for therapy (U.S.S.N. 08/404,796). Naked DNA or nucleic acid molecules are also suitable for use as gene delivery vehicles within the present invention (WO 90/11092). Such gene delivery vehicles may be either DNA or RNA and, in certain embodiments, are linked to killed adenovirus (Curiel et al., Hum. Gene. Ther. 5: 147-154, 1992). Other suitable vehicles include DNA-ligand (Wu et al. , J. Biol. Chem. 264: 16985-16987, 1989), lipid-DNA combinations (Feigner et al., Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 84:7413 7417, 1989), liposomes (Wang et al. , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 84:7851-7855, 1987) and microprojectiles (Williams et al. , Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. 88:2726-2730, 1991). In addition, one can increase the efficiency of naked DNA uptake into cells by coating biodegradable latex beads with naked DNA. This approach takes advantage of the fact that latex beads, when incubated with cells in culture, are efficiently transported and concentrated in the perinuclear region. The beads will then be transported into cells when injected into muscle. DNA coated latex beads will be efficiently transported into cells after endocytosis is initiated by the latex beads, and thus increase the gene transfer and expression efficiency of this method. This method may be improved further by treatment of the beads to increase their hydrophobicity and thereby facilitate the disruption of the endosome and release of the DNA into the cytoplasm. For non-viral delivery of the coding sequence, the sequence can be inserted into conventional vectors that contain conventional control sequences for high level expression, and then be incubated with synthetic gene transfer molecules such as polymeric DNA-binding cations like polylysine, protamine, and albumin, linked to cell targeting ligands such as asialoorosomucoid, insulin, galactose, lactose, or transferrin. Other delivery systems include the use of liposomes to encapsulate DNA comprising the gene under the control of a variety of tissue-specific or ubiquitously-active promoters. Further non-viral delivery suitable for use includes mechanical delivery systems such as the approach described in Woffendin et al,, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (1994) 97 (24): 11581-11585. Moreover, the coding sequence and the product of expression of such can be delivered through deposition of photopolymerized hydrogel materials. Other conventional methods for gene delivery that can be used for delivery of the coding sequence include, for example, use of hand-held gene transfer particle gun, as described in U.S. 5,149,655; use of ionizing radiation for activating transferred gene, as described in U.S. 5,206, 152 and PCT application WO 92/11033. The aforementioned are not to the exclusion of additional means of facihtating of nucleic acid uptake that rely on nucleic charge neutralization or fusion with cell membranes or facilitate uptake, for example Polycationic molecules, lipids, liposomes, polyanionic molecules, or polymer con j ugate^ conjugated to the polynucleotide can facilitate non-viral delivery of DNA or RNA For example, polycationic agents for gene delivery include polylysine, polyargimne, polyornithme, and prota ine Other examples include histones, protamines, human serum albumin. DNA binding proteins, non-histone chromosomal proteins, coat proteins from DNA viruses, such as φX174, transeriptional factors also contain domains that bind DNA and therefore may be useful as nucleic aid condensing agents, for example, C/CEBP, c-jun, c-fos, AP-1, AP-2, AP-3, CPF, Prot-1, Sp-1, Oct-1 , Oct-2, CREP, and TFIID contain basic domains that bind DNA sequences Organic polycationic agents include spermme, spermidme, and purtrescine The dimensions and of the physical properties of a polycationic agent can be extrapolated from the list above, to construct other polypeptide polycationic agents or to produce synthetic polycationic agents Polypeptides can be incoφorated into the polycationic agents In addition, hpoproteins can be incoφorated into the polycationic agent, such as low density poprotem, high density hpoprotein, or very low density hpoprotem Mutants, fragments, or fusions of these proteins can also be used Other groups that can be incoφorated include without limitation hormones, steroids, androgens, estrogens, thyroid hormone, or vitamins, fohc acid Also, the polycationic agents of the instant invention can be chemically conjugated with polyalkylene glycol A solid phase method for the synthesis of N- substituted glycines or NSGs can be used which is generally applicable for a wide variety of side-cham substituents A method of synthesis is to assemble the monomer from two submonomers in the course of extending a polymer comprising a NSG monomer This technique is described in PCT WO94/06451 The NSGs c an also be considered to be an alternating condensation of copolymer of an acylating agent and an amine The polycationic agent/polynucleotide complexes, whether or not encapsulated m liposomes, may be administered in pharmaceutical compositions The pharmaceutical compositions will comprise therapeutically effective amount of nucleic acids An effective dose for DNA delivery is from about 0 01 mg/ kg to 50 mg/kg or 0 05 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg of the DNA constructs in the individual to which it is administered Additional agents can be included with the desired polynucleotides to be delivered, for delivery m either in a gene therapy protocol, or in a nucleic acid vaccination protocol These additional agents can facilitate, for example, endocytosis of the desired nucleic acids or aid binding of the nucleic acids to the cell surface Polypeptides can facilitate DNA delivery and include, for example asioloorosomucoid (ASOR), transferπn, asialoglycoproteins, antibodies, antibody fragments, ferπtin, interleukins, interferons, granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), macrophage colony stimulating factor (M CSF), stem cell factor and erythropoietin Viral antigens, such as envelope proteins, can also be used Also, proteins from other invasive organisms, such as the 17 amino acid peptide from the circumsporozoite protein of plasmodium falciparum known as RII Certain hormones such as for example, steroids, androgens, estrogens, thyroid hormone, or the vitamin, fohc acid, can aid in nucleic acid delivery Also, polyalkylene glycol can be included, and mono-, di-, or polysaccharides can be included The desired polynucleotide can also be encapsulated in lipids or packaged in liposomes prior to delivery to the mammal Lipid encapsulation is generally accomplished using liposomes which are able to stably bind or entrap and retain nucleic acid The ratio of condensed polynucleotide to lipid preparation can vary but will generally be around 1 1 (mg DNA micromoles lipid), or more of lipid For a review of the use of liposomes as carriers for delivery of nucleic acids, see, Hug and Sleight, Biochim Biophys Acta (1991) 7097 1-17, Straubinger et al , in METHODS OF ENZYMOLOGY (1983), Vol 101, pp 512-527 Liposomal preparations for use in the instant invention include cationic (positively charged), anionic (negatively charged) and neutral preparations Cationic liposomes have been shown to mediate intracellular delivery of plasmid DNA (Feigner et al , Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1987) 84 7413-7416), mRNA (Malone et al , Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1989) 86 6077-6081), and purified transcription factors (Debs et al , J Biol Chem (1990) 265 10189-10192), m functional form Cationic liposomes are readily available For example, N[l-2,3-dιoleyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N- tπethylammonium (DOTMA) liposomes are available under the trademark Lipofectm, from GIBCO BRL, Grand Island, NY (See, also, Feigner et al , Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1987) 84 7413- 7416) Other commercially available liposomes include transfectace (DDAB/DOPE) and DOTAP/DOPE (Boerhmger) Other cationic liposomes can be prepared from readily available materials using techniques well known in the art See, e g , Szoka et al , Proc Natl Acad Set USA (1978) 75 4194-4198, PCT Publication No WO 90/11092 for a description of the synthesis of DOTAP (l ,2-bιs(oleoyloxy)-3-(tπmethylammonιo)propane) liposomes Similarly, anionic and neutral liposomes are readily available, such as from Avanti Polar Lipids (Birmingham, AL), or can be easily prepared using readily available materials Such materials include phosphatidyl cho ne, cholesterol, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, dioleoylphosphatidyl chohne (DOPC), dioleoylphosphatidyl glycerol (DOPG), dioleoylphoshatidyl ethanolamine (DOPE), among others These materials can also be mixed with the DOTMA and DOTAP starting materials in appropriate ratios. Methods for making liposomes using these materials are well known in the art. The liposomes can comprise multilammelar vesicles (MLVs), small unilamellar vesicles. (SUVs), or large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs). The various liposome-nucleic acid complexes are prepared using methods known in the art. See, e.g., Straubinger et al , in METHODS OF IMMUNOLOGY (1983), Vol. 101, pp. 512-527; Szoka et al , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (1978) 75:4194-4198; Papahadjopoulos et al , Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1975) 594:483; Wilson et al , Cell (1979) 77:77); Deamer and Bangham, Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1976) 445:629; Ostro et al , Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. (1977) 76:836; Fraley et al , Proc.

Acad. Sci. USA (1978) 75: 145; and Schaefer-Ridder et al, Science (1982) 275: 166. In addition, lipoproteins can be included with the polynucleotide to be delivered. Examples of lipoproteins to be utilized include: chylomicrons, HDL, IDL, LDL, and VLDL . Mutants, fragments, or fusions of these proteins can also be used. Also, modifications of naturally occurring lipoproteins can be used, such as acetylated LDL. These lipoproteins can target the delivery of polynucleotides to cells expressing lipoprotein receptors. Preferably, if lipoproteins are including with the polynucleotide to be delivered, no other targeting ligand is included in the composition. Such mutants, fragments and fusions can be constructed by altering the polynucleotides encoding the desired lipoproteins by recombinant DNA techniques. See, for example, Sambrook et al., (1989) Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 2d edition (Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, New York). These polynucleotides can be inserted into expression vectors and host cells can be utilized to produce the desired apoprotein. In addition, naturally occurring lipoproteins, mutants, fragments, and fusions can be chemically altered. For example, acetylated LDL has biological activity. Chemically modified lipoproteins can also be purchased from commercial suppliers, such as Biomedical Technologies, Inc. , Stoughton, Massachusetts, USA. A polynucleotide binding molecule refers to those compounds that associate with polynucleotides, and the association is not sequence specific. For example, such molecules can (1) aid in neutralizing the electrical charge of polynucleotide, or (2) facilitate condensation of nucleotides, or (3) inhibit serum or nuclease degradation. Examples of polynucleotide binding molecules include: polylysine, polyarginine, polyornithine, and protamine. Examples of organic polycations include: spermine, spermidine, and purtrescine. Other examples include histones, protamines, human serum albumin, DNA binding proteins, non-histone chromosomal proteins, coat proteins from DNA viruses, such as φX174, transeriptional factors also contain domains that bind DNA and therefore may be useful as nucleic aid condensing agents Briefly, transeriptional factors such as C/CEBP, c-jun, c-fos, AP-1, AP-2, AP-3, CPF, Prot-1 , Sp-1 , Oct-1 , Oct-2, CREP, and TFIID contain basic domains that bind DNA sequences Examples of other positively charged moieties include polybrene, DEAE-dextran, and cationic lipids Useful cationic lipids and liposomes are described above Lipids and liposomes are not used in this aspect of the invention to encapsulate both polynucleotide and hpoprotem The hpoprotem must be exposed to bind the its cell surface receptor Other synthetic compounds that are capable of binding negatively charged polynucleotides are useful, such as polymers of N substituted glycines Pharmaceutical Compositions Within another aspect of the invention, pharmaceutical compositions are provided for any of the therapeutic agents of the invention, including polynucleotides, polypeptides and small molecules Where a gene delivery vehicle is used, the pharmaceutical composition can comprise a recombinant viral vector as descπbed above, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent Such pharmaceutical compositions may be prepared either as a liquid solution, or as a solid form (e g , lyophilized) which is suspended in a solution prior to administration In addition, the composition may be prepared with suitable carriers or diluents for either surface administration, injection, oral, or rectal administration Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents are nontoxic to recipients at the dosages and concentrations employed Representative examples of carriers or diluents for injectable solutions include water, isotonic saline solutions which are preferably buffered at a physiological pH (such as phosphate-buffered saline or Tπs- buffered saline), mannitol, dextrose, glycerol, and ethanol, as well as polypeptides or proteins such as human serum albumin A particularly preferred composition comprises a vector or recombinant virus in 10 mg/ml mannitol, 1 mg/ml HSA, 20 mM Tris, pH 7 2, and 150 mM NaCl In this case, since the recombinant vector represents approximately 1 mg of material, it may be less than 1 % of high molecular weight material, and less than 1/100,000 of the total material (including water) This composition is stable at -701 C for at least six months Pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may also additionall include factors which stimulate cell division, and hence, uptake and incoφoration of a recombinant retroviral vector Preserving recombinant viruses is described m U S applications entitled ' Methods for Preserving Recombinant Viruses" (U S Serial No 08/135,938, filed October 12, 1993) which is incoφorated herein by reference m full All of the therapeutic agents that make up the proposed therapy of the invention can be incoφorated into an appropriate pharmaceutical composition that includes a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier for the agent. The pharmaceutical carrier for the agents may be the same or different for each agent. Suitable carriers may be large, slowly metabolized macromolecules such as proteins, polysaccharides, polylactic acids, polyglycolic acids, polymeric amino acids, amino acid copolymers, and inactive viruses in particles. Such carriers are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be used therein, for example, mineral acid salts such as hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, phosphates, sulfates, and the like; and the salts of organic acids such as acetates, propionates, malonates, benzoates, and the like. A thorough discussion of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients is available in REMINGTON'S PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES (Mack Pub. Co. , N.J. 1991). Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers in therapeutic compositions may contain liquids such as water, saline, glycerol and ethanol. Additionally, auxiliary substances, such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering substances, and the like, may be present in such vehicles. Typically, the therapeutic compositions are prepared as injectables, either as liquid solutions or suspensions; solid forms suitable for solution in, or suspension in, liquid vehicles prior to injection may also be prepared. Liposomes are included within the definition of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The term "liposomes" refers to, for example, the liposome compositions described in U.S. Patent No. 5,422, 120, WO 95/13796, WO 94/23697, WO 91/14445 and EP 524,968 Bl . Liposomes may be pharmaceutical carriers for the small molecules, polypeptides or polynucleotides of the invention, or for combination of these therapeutics. Pharmaceutical compositions are provided comprising a recombinant retrovirus or virus carrying one of the above-described vector constructs, in combination with a phaπnaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent. The composition may be prepared either as a liquid solution, or as: a solid form (e.g. , lyophilized) which is suspended in a solution prior to administration. In addition, the composition may be prepared with suitable carriers or diluents for either surface administration, injection, oral, or rectal administration. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents are nontoxic to recipients at the dosages and concentrations employed. Representative examples of carriers or diluents for injectable solutions include water, isotonic saline solutions which are preferably buffered at a physiological pH (such as phosphate-buffered saline or Tris-buffered saline), mannitol, dextrose , glycerol, and ethanol, as well as polypeptides or proteins such as human serum albumin. A vector or recombinant virus can be delivered in a pharmaceutical composition in 10 mg/ml mannitol, 1 mg/ml HSA, 20 mM Tris, pH 7.2, and 150 mM NaCl. In this case, since the recombinant vector represents approximately 1 g of material, it may be less than 1 % of high molecular weight material, and less than 1/100,000 of the total material (including water). This composition is stable at -70°C for at least six months. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent may be combined with the gene delivery vehicles to provide a composition either as a liquid solution, or as a solid form (e.g. , lyophilized) which can be resuspended in a solution prior to administration. The two or more gene delivery vehicles are typically administered via traditional direct routes, such as buccal/sublingual, rectal, oral, nasal, topical, (such as transdermal and ophthalmic), vaginal, pulmonary, intraarterial, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, intraocular, intranasal or intravenous, or indirectly. Non-parenteral routes are contemplated by the invention. Any therapeutic of the invention, including, for example, polynucleotides for expression in the mammal, can be formulated into an enteric coated tablet or gel capsule according to known methods in the art. These are described in the following patents: US 4,853,230, EP 225, 189, AU 9,224,296, AU 9,230,801 , and WO 92144,52. Such a capsule is administered orally to be targeted to the jejunum. At 1 to 4 days following oral administration expression of the polypeptide, or inhibition of expression by, for example a ribozyme or an antisense oligonucleotide, is measured in the plasma and blood, for example by antibodies to the expressed or non-expressed proteins. The gene delivery vehicle can be introduced into a mammal, for example, by injection, particle gun, topical administration, parental administration, inhalation, or iontophoretic delivery, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,411 ,648 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,222,936, U.S. Pat. No. 5,286,254; and WO 94/05369. The gene delivery vehicle may be administered at single or multiple sites to a mammal directly, for example by direct injection, or alternatively, through the use of target cells transduced ex vivo. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions (including, for example, various adjuvants) suitable for administering the gene delivery vehicles. A vector construct which directs the expression of a SIP can be directly administered to a site exhibiting a condition that can be modulated by SIP or a modulator of SIP, for example in organs of the body. Various methods may be used within the context of the present invention in order to directly administer the vector construct. For example, arteries which serve the region may be identified, and the vector injected into such an artery, in order to deliver the vector directly into the site. Similarly, the vector construct may be directly administered to the skin surface, for example, by application of a topical pharmaceutical composition containing the vector construct. The SIP polynucleotide is placed into a vector construct which directs its expression. Within the context of the present invention, a "vector construct" is understood to refer to an assembly which is capable of directing the expression of the sequence(s) or gene(s) of interest. The vector construct must include transeriptional promoter element(s), and preferably includes a signal which directs polyadenylation. In addition, the vector construct must include a sequence which , when transcribed, is operably linked to the sequence(s) or gene(s) of interest and acts as a translation initiation sequence. Optionally, the vector construct may also include a selectable marker such as Neo, TK, hygromycin, phleomycin, histidinol, or DHFR, as well as one or more restriction sites and a translation termination sequence. In addition, if the vector construct is placed into a retrovirus, the vector construct must include a packaging signal, long terminal repeats (LTRs), and positive and negative strand primer binding sites appropriate to the retrovirus used (if these are not already present). In a direct administration, combination therapeutic agents including SIP and other agents can be administered together. The co-administration can be simultaneous, achieved for example by placing polynucleotides encoding the agents in the same vector, or by putting the agents, whether polynucleotide, polypeptide, or other drug, in the same pharmaceutical composition, or by administering the agents in different pharmaceutical compositions injected at about the same time, and perhaps in the same location. If the co-administration is not simultaneous, for example, in the case of administration of the prodrug after administration of the prodrug activator, the second agent can be administered by direct injection as appropriate for the goals of the therapy. Thus, for example, in the case of an administration of a prodrug, the prodrug is administered at the same location as the prodrug activator. Thus, a co-administration protocol can include a combination of administrations to achieve the goal of the therapy. Further, the co-administration can include subsequent administrations as is necessary, for example, repeat in vivo direct injection administrations of a SIP polypeptide. Within the context of the present invention, it should be understood that the removed cells may be returned to the same animal, or to another allogenic animal or mammal. In such a case it is generally preferable to have histocompatibility matched animals (although not always, see, e.g.. Yamamoto et al. , "Efficacy of Experimental FIV Vaccines," 1st International Conference of FIV Researchers, University of California at Davis, September 1991. Cells may be removed from a variety of locations in the mammal. In addition, within olher embodiments of the invention, a vector construct may be inserted into, for example, cells from the skin (dermal fibroblasts), or from the blood (e.g. , peripheral blood leukocytes). If desired, particular fractions of cells such as a T cell subset or stem cells may also be specifically removed from the blood (see, for example, PCT WO 91/16116, an application entitled "Immunoselection Device and Method"). Vector constructs may then be contacted with the removed cells utilizing any of the above-described techniques, followed by the return of the cells to the warm-blooded animal, preferably to or within the vicinity of the region of interest For this and many other aspects of the invention, effectiveness of treating humans may first be tested in animal models The multiple gene delivery vehicles may be administered to animals or plants In preferred embodiments, the animal is a warm-blooded animal, further preferably selected from the group consisting of mice, chickens, cattle, pigs, pets such as cats and dogs, horses, and humans Any therapeutic of the invention, including, for example, polynucleotides for expression m the mammal, or ribozymes or antisense oiigonucleotides, can be formulated into an enteric coated tablet or gel capsule according to known methods in the art These are described in the following patents US 4,853,230, EP 225,189, AU 9,224,296, AU 9,230,801, and WO 92144,52 Such a capsule is administered orally to be targeted to the jejunum At 1 to 4 days following oral administration expression of the polypeptide, or inhibition of expression by, for example a ribozyme or an antisense oligonucleotide, is measured m the plasma and blood, for example by use of antibodies to the expressed or non-expressed proteins Administration of a therapeutic of the invention, includes administering a therapeutically effective dose of the therapeutic, by a means considered or empirically deduced to be effective for inducing the desired, therapeutic effect in the mammal Both the dose and the administration means can be determined based on the specific qualities of the therapeutic, the condition of the mammal, the progression of the disease, and other relevant factors Administration for the therapeutic agents of the invention can include, for example, local or systemic administration, including for example parenteral administration, including injection, topical administration, oral administration, catheteπzation, laser-created perfusion channels, a particle gun, and a pump Parenteral administration can be, for example, intravenous, subcutaneous, intradermal, or intramuscular, administration The therapeutics of the invention can be administered in a therapeutically effective dosage and amount, the process of a therapeutically effective protocol for treatment of the mammal The initial and any subsequent dosages administered will depend upon the mammal's age, weight, condition, and the disease, disorder or biological condition being treated Depending on the therapeutic, the dosage and protocol for administration will vary, and the dosage will also depend on the method of administration selected, for example, local or systemic administration For polypeptide therapeutics, for example, SIP or a SIP modulator, the dosage can be in the range of about 5μg to about 50μg/kg of mammal body weight, also about 50 μg to about 5 mg/kg, also about 100 μg to about 500 μg/kg of mammal body weight, and about 200 to about 250 ug/kg. In all contexts, modulators of SIP can be, for example, agonists or antagonists of SIP activity. For polynucleotide therapeutics, for example native or mutant SIP polypeptide, or a modulator of SIP polypeptide, depending on the expression of the polynucleotide in the mammal, for tissue targeted administration, vectors containing expressable constructs of coding sequences, or non-coding sequences can be administered in a range of about 100 ng to about 200 mg of DNA for local administration in a gene therapy protocol, also about 500 ng to about 50 mg, also about 1 ug to about 2 mg of DNA, about 5 ug of DNA to about 500 ug of DNA, and about 20 ug to about 100 ug during a local administration in a gene therapy protocol, and for example, a dosage of about 500 ug, per injection or administration. Non-coding sequences that act by a catalytic mechanism, for example, catalytically active ribozymes may require lower doses than non-coding sequences that are held to the restrictions of stoichometry, as in the case of, for example, antisense molecules, although expression limitations of the ribozymes may again raise the dosage requirements of ribozymes being expressed in vivo in order that they achieve efficacy in the mammal. Factors such as method of action and efficacy of transformation and expression are therefore considerations that will effect the dosage required for ultimate efficacy for DNA and nucleic acids. Where greater expression is desired, over a larger area of tissue, larger amounts of DNA or the same amounts readministered in a successive protocol of administrations, or several administrations to different adjacent or close tissue portions of for example, a tumor site, may be required to effect a positive therapeutic outcome. Administration of a therapeutic of the invention, includes administering a therapeutically effective dose of the therapeutic, by a means considered or empirically deduced to be effective for inducing the desired therapeutic effect in the mammal. Both the dose and the administration means can be determined based on the specific qualities of the therapeutic, the condition of the mammal, the progression of the disease, and other relevant factors. Administration for the therapeutic agents of the invention can include, for example, local or systemic administration including injection, topical administration, oral administration, catheterization, mucosal, nasal, or inhalation administration, laser-created perfusion channels, a particle gun, and a pump. Paienteral administration can be, for example, intravenous, subcutaneous, intradermal, or intramuscular, administration.. The therapeutics of the invention can be administered in a therapeutically effective dosage and amount, in the process of a therapeutically effective protocol for treatment of the mammal. The initial and any subsequent dosages administered will depend upon the mammal's age, weight, condition, and the disease, disorder or biological condition being treated. Depending on the therapeutic, the dosage and protocol for administration will vary, and the dosage will also depend on the method of administration selected, for example, local or systemic administration In all cases, routine experimentation in clinical trials will determine specific ranges for optimal therapeutic effect, for each therapeutic, each administrative protocol, and administration to specific mammals will also be adjusted to within effective and safe ranges depending on the mammal condition and responsiveness to initial administrations Further objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description It should be understood, however, that the detailed description, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, is given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description Also, the invention is not limited by any theories of mechanism of the method of the invention The present invention will now be illustrated by reference to the following examples which set forth particularly advantageous embodiments However, it should be noted that these embodiments are illustrative and are not to be construed as restricting the invention in any way Further objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description It should be understood, however, that the detailed description, while indicating preferred embodiments of the present invention, is given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description The present invention will now be illustrated by reference to the following examples which set forth particularly advantageous embodiments However, it should be noted that these embodiments are illustrative and are not to be construed as restricting the invention in any way Further objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description It should be understood, however, that the detailed description, while indicating preferred embodiments of the present invention, is given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description Example 1 (Purification of SIP- 130 and SIP-125Polypeptides) BAL17 B cells were stimulated by crosslinking the B cell antigen receptor with anti- immunoglobulin M antibodies. The B cells were grown in modified DME/F12 media containing 6% fetal bovine serum, collected by centrifugation and stimulated in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), 250 μM sodium ortho vanadate, and 1 mg of anti-immunoglobulin M antibody (Jackson Immunologicals, Inc.) per 10 cells for 2 minutes at 37°C. The cell slurry was then diluted with ice-cold PBS/vanadate, centrifuged and the cell pellet flash frozen until use. The cell pellets were thawed, dounce homogenized in 20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 0.5 mM vanadate, 500 μM PMSF, 1 μg/ml aprotinin, 5 μg/ml leupeptin (Buffer A), centrifuged and the supematants applied at 0.8 ml/min to an 15 ml (1.0 x 1.3 cm) anti-phosphotyrosine antibody affinity column (PY20, Signal Transduction Laboratories, Lexington, KY). The column was washed at 1.6 ml/min with Buffer A - 0.1 % triton x-100 until absorbance plateaued and then with Buffer A until absorbance baseline was zero. Protein was eluted with Buffer A containing 100 mM phenylphosphate at 0.13 ml/min and 0.5 ml fractions collected. Column fractions were assayed by SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose and incubated with 32P-labeled GST-SHC PTB domain fusion protein, as described in Kavanaugh, & Williams, Science 266: 1862-1865, 1994. Fractions containing pl30 and pl25 were then dialyzed against 20 mM Tris-HCL, pH 7.5, 2 mM NaTungstate, 2 mM Na Arsenate, 1 mM benzamidine and 1 mM DTT (Buffer B), and loaded at 1 ml/min on a 5 ml Pharmacia Q FF anion exchange column. Proteins were eluted with a 100 ml, 0 to IM NaCl gradient in Buffer B, and 2 ml fractions assayed as above. The peak fractions were then pooled, concentrated using a centriprep concentrator and analyzed by 8 % SDS-PAGE. Proteins were stained with Coomassie blue, and bands corresponding to pl30 excised. pl30 protein was then digested with endoproteinase Lys-C, and peptides purified and sequenced according to standard methods, as described in Matsudaira, P. (1993). A Practical Guide to Protein and Peptide Purification for Microsequencing (San Diego Academic Press, Inc). The partially purified protein of p 130 was digested with endoproteinase Lys-C. The resulting peptides were then extracted, purified by standard methods including HPLC, and sequenced according to standard methods of peptide sequencing. Eight peptide samples were analyzed for amino acid sequencing. One sample had no identifiable sequence, and two were autolytic fragments of endoproteinase Lys-C. Of the 5 remaining pl30 peptides, 4 contained sequences identical to the 110 kDa SIP-110 as indicated in (SEQ ID NO: 5), (SEQ ID NO: 6), (SEQ ID NO: 7), and (SEQ ID NO: 8). One of these four peptides contained an aspartic acid mstead of the glutamic acid at position 839 of SIP-110 (sequence (SEQ ID NO 8) One other peptide contained a unique sequence not found in sequence databases (SEQ ID No 9 (mouse) and SEQ ID No 13 (human)) These results demonstrated that pl30 has a high degree of similarity to the 110 kDa SIP- 110, and is likely to be a member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family The difference in molecular weights of SIP-110 and pl30 demonstrate that they are not the same protem, though they may be splice variants of the same gene Example 2 (SIP-110 Antibodies Recognize SIP-130 and SIP-125) Rabbit antibodies were raised by standard techniques against three different epitopes of SIP- 110 protein The epitopes were residues 48-231 (antibody DP3), 232-500 (antibody DP5), and 891 to 969 (antibody 8727) of SIP-1 10 In cell lysates and in antι-SIP-110 lmmunoprecipitates from B cell extracts these antibodies recognized the 110 kDa SIP-110 as well as pl25 and the 130 kDa SIP All three antι-SIP-110 antibodies specifically recognized proteins of about 130-135 kDa and about 125 kDa in SHC lmmunoprecipitates from stimulated but not unstimulated B cells Pre-immune and anti-SHC lmmunoprecipitates from unstimulated and activated B cells were immunoblotted with two different antibodies raised against separate epitopes of SIP-110 (DP3 and DP5) pl25 and pl30 SIP bands were absent when immunoblotted with pre-immune sera Example 3 (Enzymatic Activity of SIP) Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases hydrolyze the 5 phosphate from Ins(l ,4,5)P and Ins(l,3,4,5)P 4 , and a subset of these enzymes, including SIP-110, can remove the 5-phosphate from phosphatidyhnositol polyphosphates To determine whether SIP is also a functional inositol phosphatase, anti-SHC lmmunoprecipitates were assayed for their ability to hydrolyze inositol phosphates and phosphatidyhnositol polyphosphates An activity that hydrolyzed inositol 1 ,3,4,5 tetrakisphosphate (Ins(l,3,4,5)P 4 ) was detected m lmmunoprecipitates of SHC from activated B cells but not in lmmunoprecipitates from unstimulated cells, or in preimmune lmmunoprecipitates of SHC No hydrolysis of Ins(l,4,5,)P 3 over background was detected in any of these samples, indicating that SIP is a functional inositol polyphosphate phosphatase with a preference for 3- phosphorylated substrates Additionally, phosphatidyhnositol 3,4,5, triphosphate was hydrolyzed to phosphatidylinositol 3,4, diphosphate in immunoprecipitates of SHC from activated B cells but not in immunoprecipitates from unstimulated cells, or in preimmune immunoprecipitates of SHC, indicating that SIP- 130 and pl25 are functional phosphatidyl inositol 5-phosphates with a preference for 3 phosphorylated substrates. Example 4 (Cloning SIP- 130 and SIP-N) Five pl30 peptides (SEQ ID No.s 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9) and three pl25 peptides (SEQ ID No. 25, 26, and 27) were sequenced. Suφrisingly, four pl30 peptides (SEQ ID No. 5, 6, 7, and 8) and all three pl25 peptides contained sequences identical to the 110-kDa SIP-110. One pl30 peptide contained an aspartic acid instead of the glutamic acid at position 839 of SIP- 110. One pl30- derived peptide contained unique sequence not found in the sequence databases (SEQ ID No. 9). The pl25 and pl30 peptides were identical to widely separated portions of the SIP- 110 sequence, suggesting that pl25, pl30 and SIP-110 are homologous over a large portion of the SIP-110 sequence. These results demonstrated that pl25 and pl30 have a high degree of similarity to the 110 kDa SIP-110, and are likely to be inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases. Further the presence of unique sequence in pl30 and the difference in molecular weights of SIP-110 and pl25 and pl30 demonstrate that they are not the same protein. Thus developed the names SIP-130 and SIP-125. cDNAs of SIP- 130 were obtained by probing a human lung cDNA library with probes derived from SIP-110 sequences. A 3537-bp partial cDNA of SIP-130 was obtained with an open reading frame of 1178 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequence of this cDNA contains ail the peptide sequences isolated from purified pl25 and pl30 proteins. Four out of 18 residues in one pl30-derived peptide sequence differed from the corresponding predicted amino acid sequence based on the SIP- 130 cDNA. Three of these residues represented conservative substitutions. This likely reflects species differences between the peptide, which was derived from the mouse pl30 protein, and the SIP-130 cDNA, which was obtained from a human cDNA library. Nucleotides 788 to 3537 of the SIP- 130 partial cDNA were identical to nucleotides 37 to 2786 of SIP-110. This suggested that SIP-110 is a splice variant of SIP- 130 which lacks the NH2 terminal region of pl30. The presence of at least two bands on a Northern blot using a SIP-110 DNA probe supported this idea. Further, an in-frame ATG at nucleotide 122 of the SIP-130 cDNA is flanked by a consensus translation initiation sequence. Translation beginning at this site would produce a protein of approximate predicted molecular weight of 133 kDa, suggesting that SIP-130 results from initiation of translation at this codon. The predicted amino acid sequence of SIP- 130 contains a SH2 domain in the NH2-terminus which is not present in the SIP- 110 cDNA. The 3' end of the SIP- 130 cDNA is identical to SIP 110, and therefore contains several of the proline-rich sequence present in the COOH-terminus of SIP-110. Because the SIP- 130 cDNA was incomplete at the 3' end, we cannot yet determine if the SIP-130 and SIP-110 are completely identical in this region. However, the presence of an SH2 domain and proline-rich sequences in the SIP- 130 sequence strongly implicate SIP 130 as an important signaling molecule. An additional putative splice variant of SIP-130, called SIP-N, was identified by screening cDNA libraries with oiigonucleotides corresponding to SIP-130 sequences. SIP-N begins at the same nucleotide as the SIP- 130 partial cDNA clone described above, but has a stop codon prior to the beginning of the SIP-110 sequence. Therefore, SIP-N protein is predicted to contain the NH2- terminus of the SIP-130 protein, including the SH2 domain, but not any of the SIP-110 sequence. SIP-N also contains a deletion of nucleotides 470, 471 and 472 of SIP- 130 DNA, corresponding to amino acid 157. The SIP-N cDNA contains additional coding sequence at its 3' end which is not present in SIP-130, and predicts 12 amino acids at the COOH-terminus of SIP-N which are not present in SIP-130. Finally, SIP-N contains a 3' untranslated sequence ending with a poly A tail, demonstrating that it is a splice variant and not a cloning artifact. Example 5 (SIP inhibits PI 3-kinase-induced Xenopus oocyte maturation) The specificity of SIP in vitro for 3 '-phosphorylated phosphatidylinositols suggests that SIP may regulate signaling by PI 3-kinase. We asked whether expression of SIP protein is capable of either activating or inhibiting PI 3-kinase-dependent signaling in vivo. It has been previously demonstrated that a constitutively activated form of PI 3-kinase, known as pl 10*, induced germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) in Xenopus oocytes in the absence of added growth factors or hormones. We studied whether SIP modulated the effects of pl lO* in oocytes by co-injecting SIP and pl 10* cRNA. Injection of pllO* cRNA resulted in GVBD, consistent with previously reported results. Injection of SIP cRNA alone did not induce GVBD. pl 10*-induced GVBD was significantly reduced by co-injection of SIP. The inhibition of PI 3-kinase signaling by SIP was not due to alterations in pl 10* protein expression. Further, catalytically inactive SIP, SIP EIP, had little effect on GVBD induced by pl lO*. These experiments demonstrate that a biological effect of PI 3-kinase, oocyte maturation, can be inhibited in vivo by the enzymatic activity of SIP. Xenopus laevis frogs were maintained as previously described in Wu et al, Methods Cell Biol. 36: 1-18 (1991). In some experiments, frogs were injected with 50 I.U. PMSG (CalBiochem) on the day prior to oocyte harvesting Oocytes were surgically harvested as described and manually defolliculated under a dissecting microscope Stage VI oocytes were selected as described in Dumont, J Morphol 136 153-180 (1971), and maintained in MRS (modified Ringer's solution 100 mM NaCl, 4 mM NaHC0 3 , 1 8 mM KCL, 2 mM CaCl 2 , 1 mM MgCl 2 , 1 mg/ml bovine serum albumin) at 18-20°C Small groups of oocytes were tested for insulin responsiveness by incubation in MRS containing 8 μM insulin for 4-8 hours at 22-25°C If > 60% germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) in response to insulin was observed, fresh oocytes from the same harvest were used for subsequent experiments Microinjection of cRNAs into oocytes was performed m MRS essentially as descπbed in Muslin, et al Molecular and Cellular Biology 13:4197-42022 (1993) 5-50 nl of distilled H 2 0 containing 25-50 ng of each cRNA, or H 2 0 alone as a control, was injected at the junction of the animal and vegetal poles The oocytes were then incubated at 22-25°C in modified Ringer's solution for 3-16 hr to allow for translation of the cRNA into protein The oocytes were then treated with 8 μM insulin (m 50 mM HCl neutralized with an equal volume of 0 5 M NaHC0 3 ), 5 μg/ml progesterone or vehicle for 8-16 hr at room temperature and scored for GVBD, or lysed as described below Results presented are representative of multiple independent experiments To generate the cRNAs, wild-type SIP and SIP./EIP were cloned into the pSp vector and cRNA generated by in vitro transcription as described in Muslin, et al Molecular and Cellular Biology 13:4197-42022 (1993) SIP containing an inactivating point mutation in the SH2 domain (SIP ESH2) was generated by a G-to-T transversion at nucleoude 213, which changes arginine 71 to a leucine Constitutively active, farnesylated PI 3-kιnase (pl 10*) was constructed with a myc epitope tag and cRNA generated as descπbed( Hu, et al, Science 268:100-102 (1995) and Klippel, et al. Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996) For analysis of pl 10* expression, equal numbers of oocytes were lysed in 10 μl/oocyte of lysis buffer by repeated pipeting, and lysates clarified by centrifugation, as above Lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-myc antibodies and immunoblotted with anti-pl 10 antibodies as described Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996) In this example, and the others that follow, analysis of proteins expressed in COS cells was accomplished as follows wild-type human SIP (amino acids 41-976 as numbered Kavanaugh, ft al, Current Biology 6:438-445 (1995) tagged with the influenza hemagglutinin (HA) epitope at the NH2-termιnus was cloned into the mammalian expression vector pCG(19) Catalytically inactive SIP was generated from pCGN-SIP by deleting nucleotides 1368-1412, representing amino acid residues 454-468 within the presumed inositol phosphatase catalytic domain (SIP EIP) as described m Kavanaugh, et al, Current Biology 6:438-445 (1995) or Jefferson and Majerus. 7 Biol Chem 270:9310-1 (1995) or by changing nucleotides 1388-89 from A-C to C-A, which substitutes an alanine for aspartic acid 460 (D460A SIP) Constructs were expressed by transient transfection in COS 6M cells as described in Gorman, p 143-190 In D M Glover (ed ), DNA cloning, a practical approach , vol 2 IRL Press, Oxford (1985) 48 hours after transfection, the cells were lysed in lysis buffer (20 mM Tπs-HCL, pH 8 0, 137 mM NaCl, 1 % triton X-100, 10% glycerol, 1 mM sodium ortho vanadate, 100 mM NaF, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1 mM EGTA, 1 5 mM MgCl 2 , 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 0 15 units/ml aprotinin and 20 μM leupeptin) and clarified by centrifugation (15,000 x g, 4°C, 10 minutes) SIPs were immunoprecipitated with anti- HA monoclonal antibodies (12CA5, Boehπnger Manheim), the pellets washed, and the immunoprecipitates analyzed for the ability to hydrolyze inositol (1,3,4,5) tetraphosphate as previously descπbed in Kavanaugh, et al Current Biology 6 438-445 (1996) Aliquots of lysate were also immunoblotted with 12CA5 or with anti-SIP antisera 8727(18) to determine protein expression Example 6 (SIP specifically blocks insulin-induced GVBD) Previous studies have demonstrated that insulin action on Xenopus oocytes requires activation of PI 3-kιnase and the generation of 3 '-phosphorylated phosphatidyhnositols Because SIP antagonizes PI 3-kmase effects in oocytes, we postulated that expression of SIP would inhibit insulin signaling in oocytes Injection of SIP cRNA into oocytes blocked the ability of insulin to induce GVBD in multiple experiments This effect was not due to a non-specific toxic effect of SIP, smce the same amount of SIP cRNA had no effect on progesterone-induced GVBD, even when SIP protein was allowed to accumulate to high levels over 16 hours prior to treating the oocytes with progesterone Further, the ability of SIP to inhibit insulin-induced GVBD was dependent on the enzymatic activity of SIP, since a catalytically inactive mutant SIP (SIP_EIP) had little or no effect The inability of the catalytically inactive SIP EIP to inhibit insulin signaling suggested that expression of the SH2 domain of SIP, which is intact in this construct, is not sufficient for inhibition of insulin effects We also investigated whether the SH2 domain of SIP is necessary for the ability of SIP to inhibit insulin signaling in this system A mutant SIP cRNA was generated in which the arginine withm the critical FLVRES motif of the SH2 domain was changed to an alanine Similar mutations have been demonstrated in multiple systems to eliminate the ability of SH2 domains to interact with their tyrosine phosphorylated targets Injection of SIP cRNA containing the inactivating SH2 domain mutation, but with an intact catalytic domain, inhibited insulin-induced GVBD almost as well as wild-type SIP. This experiment demonstrates that SIP SH2 domain function is not necessary for inhibition of insulin-induced GVBD in oocytes. Oocyte culture and cRNA generation was conducted as described in Example 5. Example 7 (SIP blocks insulin-induced MAP kinase phosphorylation) Previous studies have suggested that, in Xenopus oocytes, activation of PI 3-kinase leads to activation of the ras pathway, including activation of ras, raf kinase and MAP kinase. These results would predict that injection of SIP would block the ability of insulin to activate MAP kinase. To investigate further, oocytes were injected with SIP or mutant SIP cRNAs, treated with insulin, and oocyte lysates analyzed for MAP kinase phosphorylation. As expected, insulin induced MAP kinase phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of MAP kinase by insulin was blocked by wild-type SIP, but not by catalytically inactive SIP. These results confirm biochemically the observation that SIP blocks insulin effects in oocytes, and provide further support for the hypothesis that SIP inhibits signaling by hydrolyzing and inactivating a product of PI 3-kinase. Oocyte culture and cRNA generation was conducted as described in Example 5. Analysis of MAP kinase phosphorylation was accomplished with Oocytes that were lysed by repeated pipeting in 10 μl per oocyte of lysis buffer and clarified by centrifugation as described previously. Aliquots of lysate containing equal amounts of total protein and representing equal numbers of oocytes were analyzed by 10% SDS- PAGE and immunoblotted with polyclonal antibodies specific for the phosphorylated form of MAP kinase (New England Biolabs). Example 8 (Effect of SIP on PI 3-kinase products produced in vivo) To directly determine whether SIP hydrolyzes a product of PI 3-kinase produced in vivo, oocytes were injected with H 2 0 or SIP cRNA and labeled with [ Pjorthophosphate. The oocytes were then stimulated with insulin for 10 minutes, the lipids extracted, and analyzed by thin layer chromatography and HPLC as described. Standards for PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 were generated in vitro with purified pl lO*. Levels of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 increase in oocytes treated with insulin. Expression of SIP significantly reduces the amount of PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 produced in response to insulin, but did not effect levels of PtdIns(4,5)P 2 . This data is consistent with the in vitro activity of SIP and provides the first reported evidence that SIP is a PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3 5-phosphatase in vivo as well as in vitro. Further, this experiment supports the hypothesis that SIP inhibits insulin signaling by hydrolyzing and inactivating a product of PI 3-kinase. Analysis of PI 3-kinase products in vivo was accomplished using oocytes that were labeled with [ 32 P]orthophosphate and phosphoiipids were extracted and analyzed by TLC and HPLC essentially as previously described in Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:41 17-4127 (1996) and Liu et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 75:3563-3570 (1995). Briefly, groups of 20- 25 oocytes were injected with H 2 0 or with 50 ng of SIP cRNA, incubated for 2 hr at 25°C in MRS and then incubated an additional 3 hours at 21°C in 1 ml of MRS containing 1 mCi of [ 32 P] orthophosphate (9120 Ci/mmole, NEN). Oocytes were then washed three times in 1 ml MRS, and stimulated with 8 μM insulin in 0.5 ml MRS for 10 minutes at room temperature. The oocytes were placed on ice, the buffer aspirated and lysed in 750 μl of 1 : 1 (v/v) methanol: IN HCl with vigorous vortexing and repeated pipeting. 380 μl of chloroform was then added and the mixture vortexed for an additional 15 minutes to extract lipids. The extracts were then centrifuged (15,000 x g, 2 minutes), the lower, chloroform phase removed to a new tube, the interface material and aqueous layer re-extracted with an equal volume of chloroform and the organic phases combined. The extracts were then separated on thin layer chromatography, de-acylated and analyzed by HPLC as described in Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996) and Liu et al. Molecular and Cellular Biology 75:3563-3570 (1995). PtdIns(3,4,5)P was identified using 2 P- labeled standards generated with pl 10* as described in Klippel, et al, Molecular and Cellular Biology 76:4117-4127 (1996).
