Description: 14094, A NOVEL HUMAN TRYPSIN FAMILY MEMBER AND USES THEREOF Related Applications This application claims the benefit of United States Provisional Patent Application No 60/200,621, filed April 28, 2000, and United States Patent Application No. 09/633,300, filed August 8, 2000, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. Background of the Invention Four major classes of proteases are known and are designated by the principal functional group in their active site: serine, thiol, carboxyl, and metallo. Serine proteases are characterized by the presence of a unique serine residue that functions as a nucleophile to cleave peptide bonds. In some cases, the serine forms covalent adducts with substrates and inhibitors. The serine functions with two other principal residues of the active site, a histidine, and an acid, frequently aspartic acid. Together these three residues compose the catalytic triad which is a signature of the family. Serine proteases are divided into two major evolutionary families. One family is represented by the bacterial protease subtilisin. The other family is the trypsin-chymotrypsin family and includes chymotrypsin, trypsin, and elastase. Other members of the trypsin-chymotrypsin family include thrombin, plasmin, kallikrein, and acrosin. Members of the trypsin-chymotrypsin serine protease family are involved in a range of diverse cellular functions including, cell motility, cell growth and differentiation, hormone production, organogenesis, extracellular matrix regulation, blood clotting, and complementation activation. These proteases catalyze the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in proteins and peptides. While the various serine proteases catalyze this reaction in very similar ways, they differ in their preference for the amino acid side chains immediately C-terminal to the cleave site. Trypsin cleaves bonds only after lysine and arginine residues, whereas chymotrypsin cleaves bonds after large hydrophobic residues. Other proteases of this family have less distinct preferences for this position, but also depend to varying extents on the residues at neighboring positions. Some members of the trypsin serine protease family play critical roles in a variety of important biological events including regulating cell proliferation, tumor growth, tumor invasion, metastasis, development, and tissue remodeling. Accordingly, there is a need for identifying and characterizing novel trypsin serine proteases.

Table 1 : Summary of Sequence Information for 14094 Table 2 Summary of Domains of 14094 The 14094 polypeptide contains a significant number of structural charactenstics in common with members of the trypsin senne protease family (Rawlmgs and Barret (1993) Biochem J 290 205-218, and Meth Enzymol (1994) 244 19-61, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety) Based on the presence of the histidine-aspartate-senne catalytic tnad, the 14094 polypeptide appears to be a member of the senne protease clan SA (Rawlmgs and Barret, supra) The clan SA includes the trypsin-chymotrypsin family (SI), the α-lytic endopeptidase family (S2), and the Togavirus endopeptidase family (S3) The 14094 polypeptide belongs to the trypsin-chymotrypsin family (S 1) The prototype of this family is chymotrypsin and the 3D structure of some of its members has been resolved The trypsin-chymotrypsin family (SI) includes such members as trypsin (forms I, II, III, IV, Va and Vb), trypsin-hke enzyme, hepsin, TMPRSS2, venombin, cercaπal elastase, brachyunn, Factor C, Proclotting enzyme, easter gene product, snake gene product, stubble gene product, Vitelhn-degrading endopeptidase, hypodermm C, Senne proteases 1 and 2, achelase, chymotrypsin (forms A, B, II, and 2), Proteinase RVV-V (forms α and γ), flavoboxm, venombin A, Crotalase, enteropeptidase, acrosin, ancrod, seminin, semenogelase, tissue kalhkrein, renal kalhkrem, submandibular kalhkrein, 7S nerve growth factor (chains α and γ), epidermal growth factor-bmdmg protem (forms 1, 2, and 3), tonm, arginine esterase, pancreatic elastase I, pancreatic elastase II (forms A and B), pancreatic endopeptidase E (forms A and B), leukocyte elastase, medullasin, azurocidin, cathepsin G; proteinase 3 (myeloblastin); chymase (forms I and II); γ-renin; tryptase (forms 1, 2, and 3); granzyme A; natural killer cell protease 1; gilatoxin; granzymes B, C, D, E, F, G and Y; carboxypeptidase A complex component III; complement factors D, B, I; complement components Clr, Cls, and C2; calcium-dependent serine protease; hypodermin A, B, and C; haptoglobin (forms 1 and 2); haptoglobin-related protein; plasmin; apolipoprotein (a); hepatocyte growth factor; medullasin; thrombin; t-plasminogen activator; u-plasminogen activator; salivary plasminogen activator; plasma kalhkrein; coagulation factors VII, IX, X, XI, and XII; and proteins C and Z, as well as as-yet unidentified members. The 14094 polypeptides are homologous to the SI family members, TMPRSS2 and hepsin. These three proteins are predicted type II integral membrane proteins with extracellular protease domains. For example, TMPRSS2 possesses an extracellular protease domain, an extracellular low density lipoprotein receptor A (LDLRA), scavenger receptor cysteine rich (SRCR) domains, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain (Paoloni-Giacobino, A. et al. (1997) Genomics 44: 309-320). TMPRSS2 proteins have been implicated in regulating cell proliferation and motility. Hepsin proteases are also transmembrane proteins that include a trypsin protease domain located on its extracellular side. Hepsin proteases are overexpressed in ovarian tumors and hepatoma cells (Tanimoto, H. et al. (1997) Cancer Res. 57:2884-2887). Further in vitro studies have shown inhibition of hepatoma cell proliferation using hepsin inhibitors (Toπes-Rosado, A. et al. (1993) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90: 7181-7185). Accordingly, the 14094 polypeptide contains a significant number of structural characteristics in common with members of the SI family of the SA clan of serine-type proteases (also refened to herein as "trypsin-chymotrypsin" or "trypsin" family members). The term "family" when referring to the protein and nucleic acid molecules of the invention means two or more proteins or nucleic acid molecules having a common structural domain or motif and having sufficient amino acid or nucleotide sequence homology as defined herein. Such family members can be naturally or non-naturally occurring and can be from either the same or different species. For example, a family can contain a first protein of human origin as well as other distinct proteins of human origin, or alternatively, can contain homologues of non-human origin, e.g., rat or mouse proteins. Members of a family can also have common functional characteristics. As used herein, a "trypsin-chymotrypsin family member" typically contains a catalytic unit which is generally a polypeptide sequence of about 100 to about 300 amino acids, more preferably about 150 to about 250 amino acid residues, about 200 to about 230, or about 220, although some members have N-terminal extensions of unrelated peptide segments. The catalytic unit almost always forms the C-terminal portion of the enzyme. These proteases typically cleave arginine or lysine residues in a target protein. Trypsin-chymotrypsin family members preferably have at least one trypsin domain, comprising at least one histidine active site residue, and at least one serine active site residue. Trypsin-chymotrypsin family members can also include an aspartate residue within the trypsin domain. These three residues act as a "catalytic triad", with serine as nucleophile, aspartate as electrophile, and histidine as base. The serine nucleophile typically occurs in a signature motif characterized by Prosite Motif PS00135 (also PDOC00124): G- [DE]-S-G-[GS] (SEQ ID NO:9). Typically, a trypsin domain additionally includes an activation and cleavage site, Arg-Ile-Val-Gly-Gly (or "RTVGG"; SEQ ID NO: 8), which is present just N-terminal to the serine protease domain. 14094 polypeptides contain structural features similar to trypsin-chymotrypsin family members. For example, the trypsin domain of the 14094 polypeptide has a conserved histidine residue present at about amino acid 257 of SEQ ID NO:2, and a serine active site located at amino acid 400 of SEQ ID NO:2. The trypsin domain of the 14094 polypeptide additionally includes nine conserved cysteines, which are present at about amino acids 242, 258, 324, 338, 369, 385, 396, 406, and 424 of SEQ ID NO:2. Eight of these cysteines can form disulfide bonds together in an intramolecular context. Preferably, the disulfide bonds are formed between residues about 242 and 258, 338 and 406, 369 and 385, 396 and 424 of SEQ ID NO:2. Cysteine 324 can form an intermolecular disulfide with a cysteine N- terminal to the trypsin domain. The trypsin domain of 14094 polypeptide also begins with the motif Arg-Ile-Val-Gly-Gly (SEQ ID NO:8) , which is a signature for the proteolytic activation site of many zymogens of serine proteases. This motif can be found at about amino acids 216 to 220 of SEQ ID NO:2.

which is available as part of the HMMER package of search programs, is a family specific default program for MILP AT0063 and a score of 15 is the default threshold score for determining a hit Alternatively, the threshold score for determining a hit can be lowered (e g , to 8 bits) A descnption of the Pfam database can be found m Sonhammer etal (1997) Proteins 28(3) 405-420 and a detailed

and Stultz et al (1993) Protein Sci 2 305-314, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference A search was performed against the PFAM HMM database resulting in the identification of a "trypsin domain" in the amino acid sequence of human 14094 at about residues 217 to about 443 of SEQ ID NO 2 with a bit score of 293 (see Figs 1 and 3) A 14094 molecule can additionally include an "LDL-receptor class A" domam, or regions homologous with a "LDL-receptor class A "domain A LDL-receptor class A domain is characteπzed by a common fold, of about 40 amino acids, characterized by six conserved cysteines which form three disulfide bonds to produce a stable folded structure (Daly et al (1995) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 92 63334- 63338) In the LDL-receptor, seven of these domains are present as consecutive units (Sudhof etal (1985) Science 228 815-822) The LDL-receptor class A domains bind to LDL and calcium, particularly, the acid residues located between the fourth and sixth cysteines of this domain mediate high-affinity binding to the positively charged LDL and calcium ligands This domain is also present in a vanety of extracellular polypeptides, for example in human enterokinase complement factor I, complement components C6, C7, C8, and C9, and perlecan As used herein, the term "LDL-receptor class A domain" includes an ammo acid sequence of about 30 to 50 amino acid residues in length, six conserved cysteine residues, an acidic patch located between the fourth and sixth cysteine, and hav g a bit score for the alignment of the sequence to the LDL-receptor class A domam (HMM) of at least 20 Preferably, a LDL-receptor class A domain mcludes at least about 20 to 70 ammo acids, more preferably about 30 to 50 amino acid residues, or about 34 to 42 ammo

to 109 of SEQ ID NO 2) In a preferred embodiment, 14094 polypeptide has as part of its LDL-receptor class A domain six conserved cystemes, which can be present at about ammo acids, 73, 79, 85, 92, 98, and 107 of SEQ ID NO 2 In another preferred embodiment, 14094 polypeptide has at least one, two, three, four, most preferably at least five acidic residues between about amino acids 92 and l07 of SEQ ID NO 2 To identify the presence of a "LDL-receptor class A" domain m a 14094 protein sequence, and make the determination that a polypeptide or protein of interest has a particular profile, the amino acid sequence of the protein can be searched against a database of HMMs as descnbed above A search was performed against the HMM database resulting in the identification of a "LDL-receptor class A domain" domain in the amino acid sequence of human 14094 at about residues 71 to 109 of SEQ ID NO 2 (Figure 1) 14094 molecule can further mclude a "scavenger receptor cysteme-nch" domain or regions homologous with a "scavenger receptor cysteme-nch" domain A scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain is characterized by a common fold of approximately 100 amino acids, first identified in the type I macrophage scavenger receptor (Resnick et al. (1994) Trends Biocehm Sci 19:5-8; Freeman etal. (1990) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 87:8810-8814). The domain is frequently found on the extracellular face of cell surface proteins or in plasma and other body fluids. Proteins, including CD5, CD6, macrophage scavenger receptor type I, the serine protease complement factor 1, cyclophilin C-binding protein, and Mac -2 binding protein contain this structural feature. The crystal structure of one such domain reveals a six-stranded β-sheet embracing an α-helix (Honenester etal. (1999) Nαt Str Biology 6:228-232). In one case, the function of this domain has been elucidated. The most membrane-proximal scavenger receptor domain in CD6 is responsible for binding to the CD6-ligand, activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule. A 14094 polypeptide can include a "scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain" or regions homologous with a "scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain". As used herein, the term "scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain" includes an amino acid sequence of about 80 to 120 amino acid residues in length and having a bit score for the alignment of the sequence to the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain (HMM) of at least 3.

The scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain (HMM) has been assigned the PFAM Accession Number PF00530 (http;//genome. wustl.edu/Pfam/.html). An alignment of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain (amino acids 110 to 205 of SEQ ID NO:2) of human 14094 with a consensus amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO:7) derived from a hidden Markov model is depicted in Figure 4B.

To identify the presence of a "scavenger receptor cysteine-nch " domain in a 14094 pro tern sequence, and make the determination that a polypeptide or protem of interest has a particular profile, the ammo acid sequence of the protein can be searched agamst a database of HMMs as descnbed above A search was performed against the HMM database resulting in the identification of a "scavenger receptor cysteine-nch domain" domain in the ammo acid sequence of human 14094 at about residues 110 to 205 of SEQ ID NO 2 (see Figure 1) In one embodiment, a 14094 protein includes at least one transmembrane domain As used herein, the term "transmembrane domain" mcludes an ammo acid sequence of about 15 ammo acid residues m length that spans a phospholipid membrane More preferably, a transmembrane domam includes about at least 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 30, 35 or 40 am o acid residues and spans a phospholipid membrane Transmembrane domains are nch in hydrophobic residues, and typically have an α-hehcal structure In a preferred embodiment, at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or more of the ammo acids of a transmembrane domam are hydrophobic, e g , leucines, isoleucmes, tyrosines, or tryptophans Transmembrane domains are descnbed in, for example, Zagotta W N et al, (1996) Annual Rev Neurosci 19 235-63, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference In a preferred embodiment, a 14094 polypeptide or protein has at least one transmembrane domam or a region which includes at least 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 30, 35 or 40 ammo acid residues and has at least about 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, or 100% homology with a "transmembrane domain," e g , at least one transmembrane domain of human 14094 (e g , from about amino acid residues 48 to about 69 of SEQ ID NO 2) In another embodiment, a 14094 protein includes at least one "extracellular domain" As defined herein, the term "extracellular domam" includes an amino acid sequence having a length of at least about 200, preferably about 250-500, more preferably about 300-450, more preferably about 350-400, and most preferably about 383 ammo acid residues, and has an amino acid sequence that is outside of a cell, or extracellularly The extracellular domain is the C-terminal amino acid of a loop is adjacent to an N-terminal amino acid of a transmembrane domain m a naturally-occurnng 14094 or 14094-lιke molecule For example, an extracellular domain can be found at about amino acids 70-453 of SEQ ID NO 2 In a preferred embodiment 14094 polypeptide or protein has at least one extracellular domain or a region which includes at least about 200, preferably about 250- 500, more preferably about 300-450, more preferably about 350-400, and most preferably about 383 amino acid residues and has at least about 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, or 100% homology with an "extracellular domain," e.g., at least one extracellular domain of human 14094 (e.g., residues 70-453 of SEQ ID NO:2). In another embodiment, a 14094 protein includes a "cytoplasmic domain" in the sequence of the protein. As used herein, a "cytoplasmic domain" includes an amino acid sequence having a length of at least about 30, preferably about 30-60, more preferably about 40-50, even more preferably about 47 amino acid residues and is located within a cell or within the cytoplasm of a cell. The C-terminal amino acid residue of a "cytoplasmic domain" is adjacent to a N-terminal amino acid residue of a transmembrane domain in a naturally-occurring 14094 or 14094-like protein. For example, a cytoplasmic domain is found at about amino acid residues 1 -47 of SEQ ID NO:2. In a preferred embodiment, a 14094 polypeptide or protein has a cytoplasmic domain or a region which includes at least about 30, preferably about 30-60, more preferably about 40-50, even more preferably about 47 amino acid residues and has at least about 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% 95%, 99%, or 100% homology with an "cytoplasmic domain," e.g., the cytoplasmic domain of human 14094 (e.g., residues 1-47 of SEQ ID NO:2). A 14094 family member can include one or more of: a trypsin domain, an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, a cytoplasmic domain, an LDL-receptor class A domain, and a scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain. As the 14094 polypeptides of the invention may modulate 14094-mediated activities, they may be useful as of for developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic agents for 14094-mediated or -related disorders, as described below. As used herein, a "14094 activity", "biological activity of 14094" or "functional activity of 14094", refers to an activity exerted by a 14094 protein, polypeptide or nucleic acid molecule on e.g., a 14094-responsive cell or on a 14094 substrate, e.g., a protein substrate, as determined in vivo or in vitro, according to standard assay techniques. In one embodiment, a 14094 activity is a direct activity, such as an association with a 14094 target molecule, or an enzymatic activity on a second protein. A "target molecule" or "binding partner" is a molecule with which a 14094 protein binds or interacts in nature. In another embodiment, a 14094 activity is an indirect activity, such as a cellular signaling activity mediated by mteraction of the 14094 protein with a second protein For example, the 14094 proteins of the present invention can have one or more of the following activities (1) modulate (stimulate or inhibit) cellular proliferation (2) modulate cell differentiation, (3) modulate tumongenesis and tumor invasion, (4) alter extracellular matnx composition, (5) catalyze polypeptide growth factor activation and release, (6) regulate the blood clotting cascade, (7) catalyze proteolytic cleavage of a substrate, e g , a protein substrate (e g , cleavage at an arginine or lysme residue, (8) catalyze the proteolytic activation of signaling molecules, e g , other proteases, growth factor activation or release, or (9) regulate of cell moπhty or attachment Based on the above-descnbed sequence similaπties, the 14094 molecules of the present invention are predicted to have similar biological activities as other trypsin family members, such as hepsin proteases Hepsin proteases are overexpressed in ovanan tumors and hepatoma cells (Tanimoto, H et al (1997) Cancer Res 57 2884-2887) Further in vitro studies have shown inhibition of hepatoma cell proliferation us g heps inhibitors (Torres- Rosado, A et al (1993) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 90 7181-7185) 14094 is highly expressed in cells and tissues denved from tumors of the breast (e g , IDC and DCIS), ovary (e g , cystadenomas and mucinous tumors), lung (e g , adenocarcinoma), liver, and colon (e g , colonic adenocarcinomas) (see Tables 3-7 and Figures 4-6) Moreover, 14094 mRNA is expressed, although at lower levels compared to the expression in rumors, in cells denved from breast, ovary . kidney, liver, and aorta Accordingly, the 14094 molecules can serve as novel diagnostic targets and theiapeutic agents for controlling disorders involving the cells or tissues where they are expressed For example, the 14094 molecules can serve as novel diagnostic targets and therapeutic agents for controlling disorders of cell proliferation, cell differentiation, organogenesis, coagulation, and cell signaling The polypeptides and nucleic acids of the invention can also be used to treat, prevent, and/or diagnose cancers and neoplastic conditions in addition to the ones descnbed above As used herefn, the terms "cancer", "hyperproliferative" and "neoplastic" refer to cells having the capacity for autonomous growth, I e , an abnormal state or condition charactenzed by rapidly proliferating cell growth Hyperproliferative and neoplastic disease states may be categoπzed as pathologic, 1 e , charactenzing or constituting a disease state, or may be categoπzed as non-pathologic, I e , a deviation from normal but not associated with a disease state The term is meant to include all types of cancerous growths or oncogenic processes, metastatic tissues or malignantly transformed cells, tissues, or organs, inespective of histopathologic type or stage of invasiveness.

Examples of non-pathologic hyperproliferative cells include proliferation of cells associated with wound repair. Examples of cellular proliferative and/or differentiative disorders include cancer, e.g., carcinoma, sarcoma, or metastatic disorders. The 14094 molecules can act as novel diagnostic targets and therapeutic agents for controlling breast cancer, ovarian cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, metastasis of such cancers and the like. A metastatic tumor can arise from a multitude of primary tumor types, including but not limited to those of breast, lung, liver, colon and ovarian origin. Examples of cancers or neoplastic conditions, in addition to the ones described above, include, but are not limited to, a fibrosarcoma, myosarcoma, liposarcoma, chondrosarcoma, osteogenic sarcoma, chordoma, angiosarcoma, endotheliosarcoma, lymphangiosarcoma, lymphangioendotheliosarcoma, synovioma, mesothelioma, Ewing's tumor, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, rectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, uterine cancer, cancer of the head and neck, skin cancer, brain cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, sebaceous gland carcinoma, papillary carcinoma, papillary adenocarcinoma, cystadenocarcinoma, medullary carcinoma, bronchogenic carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, hepatoma, bile duct carcinoma, choriocarcinoma, seminoma, embryonal carcinoma, Wilm's tumor, cervical cancer, testicular cancer, small cell lung carcinoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, bladder c?<rc'ncma, epithelial carcinoma, glioma, astrocytoma, medulloblastoma, craniopharyngioma, ependymoma, pinealoma, hemangioblastoma, acoustic neuroma, oligodendroglioma, meningioma, melanoma, neuroblastoma, retinoblastoma, leukemia, lymphoma, or Kaposi sarcoma.

As the 14094 mRNA is expressed in the normal breast, kidney, liver, and aorta, it is likely that 14094 molecules of the present invention are involved in disorders characterized by abenant activity of these cells. Thus, the 14094 molecules can act as novel diagnostic targets and therapeutic agents for controlling disorders involving aberrant activity of these cells. The presence of 14094 RNA or protein can also be used to identify a cell or tissue, or other biological sample, as being derived from breast, kidney, liver, and aorta, or being of human origin. Expression can also be used to diagnose or stage a disorder, e.g., a cancer, a breast, ovarian, or liver disorder, especially a cancer of the breast. Expression can be determined by evaluating RNA, e.g., by hybridization of a 14094 specific probe, or with a 14094 specific antibody. The 14094 protein, fragments thereof, and derivatives and other variants of the sequence in SEQ ID NO:2 thereof are collectively referred to as "polypeptides or proteins of the invention" or "14094 polypeptides or proteins". Nucleic acid molecules encoding such polypeptides or proteins are collectively referred to as "nucleic acids of the invention" or "14094 nucleic acids." 14094 molecules refer to 14094 nucleic acids, polypeptides, and antibodies. As used herein, the term "nucleic acid molecule" includes DNA molecules (e.g., a cDNA or genomic DNA), RNA molecules (e.g., an mRNA) and analogs of the DNA or RNA. A DNA or RNA analog can be synthesized from nucleotide analogs. The nucleic acid molecule can be single-stranded or double-stranded, but preferably is double-stranded DNA. The term "isolated nucleic acid molecule" or "purified nucleic acid molecule" includes nucleic acid molecules that are separated from other nucleic acid molecules present in the natural source of the nucleic acid. For example, with regards to genomic DNA, the term "isolated" includes nucleic acid molecules which are separated from the chromosome with which the genomic DNA is naturally associated. Preferably, an "isolated" nucleic acid is free of sequences which naturally flank the nucleic acid (i.e., sequences located at the 5' and/or 3' ends of the nucleic acid) in the genomic DNA of the organism from which the nucleic acid is derived. Foi example, in various embodiments, the isolated nucleic acid molecule can contain less than about 5 kb, 4 kb, 3 kb, 2 kb, 1 kb, 0.5 kb or 0.1 kb of 5' and/or 3' nucleotide sequences which naturally flank the nucleic acid molecule in genomic DNA of the cell from which the nucleic acid is derived. Moreover, an "isolated" nucleic acid molecule, such as a cDNA molecule, can be substantially free of other cellular material, or culture medium when produced by recombinant techniques, or substantially free of chemical precursors or other chemicals when chemically synthesized. As used herein, the term "hybridizes under low stringency, medium stringency, high stringency, or very high stringency conditions" describes conditions for hybridization and washing. Guidance for performing hybridization reactions can be found in Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, N.Y. (1989), 6.3.1-6.3.6, which is incorporated by reference. Aqueous and nonaqueous methods are described in that reference and either can be used. Specific hybridization conditions referred to herein are as follows 1) low strmgency hybπdization conditions m 6X sodium chlonde/sodium citrate (SSC) at about 45°C, followed by two washes in 02X SSC, 0 1% SDS at least at 50°C (the temperature of the washes can be increased to 55°C for low stnngency conditions), 2) medium stnngency hybndization conditions in 6X SSC at about 45°C, followed by one or more washes in 02X SSC, 0 1% SDS at 60°C, 3) high stnngency hybπdization conditions in 6X SSC at about 45°C, followed by one or more washes in 02X SSC, 0 1% SDS at 65°C and preferably 4) very high stnngency hybndization conditions are 0 5M sodium phosphate, 7% SDS at 65°C, followed by one or more washes at 0 2X SSC, 1% SDS at 65°C Very high stnngency conditions (4) are the prefened conditions and the ones that should be used unless otherwise specified Preferably, an isolated nucleic acid molecule of the ention that hybndizes under a stnngency condition descnbed herem to the sequence of SEQ ID NO 1, 3-, -or 11 SEQ ID NO 1. 3 11 or 13 corresponds to a naturally-occumng nucleic acid molecule As used herein, a "naturally-occurring" nucleic acid molecule refers to an RNA or DNA molecule

nucleic acid molecules which include at least an open readmg frame encoding a 14094 protein The gene can optionally further include non-coding sequences, e g , regulatory sequences and introns Preferably, a gene encodes a mammalian 14094 protein or denvative thereof An "isolated" or "puπfied" polypeptide or protein is substantially free of cellular matenal or other contaminating proteins from the cell or tissue source from which the protein is denved, or substantially free from chemical precursors or other chemicals when chemically synthesized "Substantially free" means that a preparation of 14094 protein is at least 10% pure In a preferred embodiment, the preparation of 14094 protein has less than about 30%, 20%, 10% and more preferably 5% (by dry weight), of non- 14094 pro tern (also refened to herein as a "contaminating protein"), or of chemical precursors or non-14094 chemicals When the 14094 protein or biologically active portion thereof is recombmantly produced, it is also preferably substantially free of culture medium, I e , culture medium represents less than about 20%, more preferably less than about 10%, and most preferably less than about 5% of the volume of the protein preparation The invention mcludes isolated or puπfied preparations of at least 0 01, 0 1, 1 0, and 10 milligrams in dry weight A "non-essential" amino acid residue is a residue that can be altered from the wild-type sequence of 14094 without abolishing or substantially altering a 14094 activity Preferably the alteration does not substantially alter the 14094 activity, e g , the activity is at least 20%o, 40%, 60%, 70% or 80% of wild-type An "essential" amino acid residue is a residue that, when altered from the wild-type sequence of 14094, results in abolishing a 14094 activity such that less than 20% of the wild-type activity is present For example, conserved amino acid residues in 14094 are predicted to be particularly unamenable to alteration A "conservative ammo acid substitution" is one m which the ammo acid residue is replaced with an ammo acid residue hav g a similar side chain Families of ammo acid residues having similar side chains have been defined in the art These families include amino acids with basic side chains (e g , sme, arginine, histidine), acidic side chains (e g aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chains (e g , glycine, asparagine, glutamine, senne, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine), nonpolar side chains (e g , alanine, valine. leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan), beta-branched side chains (e g , threonine, valine, isoleucine) and aromatic side chains (e g , tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histidine) Thus, a predicted nonessential amine acid residue in a 14094 protem is preferably replaced with another ammo acid residue from the same side chain family Alternatively, in another embodiment, mutations can be introduced randomh along all or part of a 14094 codmg sequence, such as by saturation mutagenesis, and the resultant mutants can be screened for 14094 biological activity to identify mutants that retam activity Following mutagenesis of SEQ ID NO 1, 11, 3 or 13, the encoded protem can be expressed recombinantly and the activity of the protein can be determined As used herein, a "biologically active portion" of a 14094 protein includes a fragment of a 14094 protein which participates in an interaction, e g , an intramolecular or an mter-molecular interaction An inter-molecular interaction can be a specific binding interaction or an enzymatic interaction (e g , the interaction can be transient and a covalent bond is formed or broken) An mter-molecular interaction can be between a 14094 molecule and a non-14094 molecule or between a first 14094 molecule and a second 14094 molecule (e g , a dimeπzation interaction) Biologically active portions of a 14094 protem include peptides compnsmg ammo acid sequences sufficiently homologous to or denved from the amino acid sequence of the 14094 protein, e g , the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO 2, which include less ammo acids than the full length 14094 proteins, and exhibit at least one activity of a 14094 protein Typically, biologically active portions compπse a domain or motif with at least one activity' of the 14094 protem, e g , a protease activity A biologically active portion of a 14094 protem can be a polypeptide which is, for example, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200 or more amino acids m length Biologically active portions of a 14094 protem can be used as targets for developing agents which modulate a 14094 mediated activity, e g , a protease activity Calculations of homology or sequence identity between sequences (the terms are used interchangeably herem) are performed as follows To determine the percent identity of two amino acid sequences, or of two nucleic acid sequences, the sequences are aligned for optimal companson purposes (e g , gaps can be introduced in one or both of a first and a second ammo acid or nucleic acid sequence for optimal alignment and non-homologous sequences can be disregarded for companson purposes) In a preferred embodiment, the length of a reference sequence aligned for companson purposes is at least 30%, preferably at least 40%, more preferably at least 50%, 60%, and even more preferabK at least 70%, 80%, 90%, 100% of the length of the reference sequence The amino acid residues or nucleotides at corresponding amino acid positions or nucleotide positions are then compared When a position m the first sequence is occupied by the same ammo acid residue or nucleotide as the conespondmg position in the second sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position (as used herein ammo acid or nucleic acid "identity" is equivalent to ammo acid or nucleic acid "homology") The percent identity between the two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared by the sequences, taking into account the number of gaps, and the length of each gap, which need to be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences The companson of sequences and determination of percent identity between two sequences can be accomplished using a mathematical algonthm In a preferred embodiment, the percent identity between two amino acid sequences is determined usmg the Needleman and Wunsch ((1970) J Mol Biol 48 444-453 ) algonthm which has been incorporated into the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at http //www gcg com), using either a Blossum 62

sequences is determined using the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at http //www gcg com), using a NWSgapdn CMP matπx and a gap weight of 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80 and a length weight of 1, 2, 3, 4. 5, or 6 A particularly prefened set of parameters (and the one that should be used unless otherwise specified) are a Blossum 62 scoring matnx with a gap penalty of 12, a gap extend penalty of 4, and a frameshift gap penalty of 5 The percent identity between two ammo acid or nucleotide sequences can be determined usmg the algonthm of E Meyers and W Miller ((1989) CABIOS, 4 11-17) which has been incorporated into the ALIGN program (version 2 0), usmg a PAM120 weight residue table, a gap length penalty of 12 and a gap penalty of 4 The nucleic acid and protem sequences descnbed herein can be used as a "query sequence" to perform a search agamst public databases to, for example, identify other family members or related sequences Such searches can be performed using the NBLAST and XBLAST programs (version 2 0) of Altschul, etal (1990) J Mol Biol 215 403-10 BLAST nucleotide searches can be performed with the NBLAST program, score = 100, wordlength = 12 to obtain nucleotide

A nucleic acid fragment can encode an epitope bearing region ofa polypeptide described herein. A nucleic acid fragment encoding a "biologically active portion of a 14094 polypeptide" can be prepared by isolating a portion of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NOT, 11, 13, or 3, which encodes a polypeptide having a 14094 biological activity (e.g., the biological activities of the 14094 proteins are described herein), expressing the encoded portion of the 14094 protein (e.g., by recombinant expression in vitro) and assessing the activity of the encoded portion of the 14094 protein. For example, a nucleic acid fragment encoding a biologically active portion of 14094 includes a trypsin domain, e.g., amino acid residues about 217 to 443 of SEQ ID NO:2, or corresponding regions of SEQ ID NO:12.. A nucleic acid fragment encoding a biologically active portion of a 14094 polypeptide, may comprise a nucleotide sequence which is greater than 311 or more nucleotides in length. In prefened embodiments, the fragment includes at least one, and preferably at least 5,10, 15 nucleotides from about nucleotides 1 to 1270, 1579 to 1749, 1928 to 2614, and 2871 to 2948 of SEQ ID NOT, or conesponding regions of SEQ ID NO: 11..

In prefened embodiments, nucleic acids include a nucleotide sequence which is about 31 1, 400, 500, 600. 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900, 2000, 2100, 2200, 2300, 2400, 2500, 2600, 2700, 2800 or 2900 nucleotides in length and hybndizes under stringent hybndization conditions to a nucleic acid molecule of SEQ ID NO 1, SEQ ID NO 1 1, or SEQ ID NO 3, SEQ ID NO 13 or the nucleotide sequence of the DNA insert of the plasmid deposited with ATCC as Accession Number 14094 Nucleic Acid Vaπants The invention further encompasses nucleic acid molecules that differ from the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO 1, 11, 13, or 3 Such differences can be due to degeneracy of the genetic code (and result in a nucleic acid which encodes the same 14094 proteins as those encoded by the nucleotide sequence disclosed herein In another embodiment, an isolated nucleic acid molecule of the invention has a nucleotide sequence encoding a protem having an amino acid sequence which differs, by at least 1 , but less than 5, 10, 20, 50, or 100 ammo acid residues that shown in SEQ ID NO 2 or SEQ ID NO 12 If alignment is needed for this companson the sequences should be aligned for maximum homology "Looped" out sequences from deletions or insertions, or mismatches, are considered differences Nucleic acids of the inventor can be chosen for having codons, which are preferred, or non-prefened, for a particular expression system E g , the nucleic acid can be one in which at least one codon, at preferably at least 10%, or 20% of the codons has been altered such that the sequence is optimized for expression in E coli, yeast, human, insect, or CHO cells Nucleic acid vaπants can be naturally occurring, such as allelic vaπants (same locus), homologs (different locus), and orthologs (different organism) or can be non naturally occurring Non-naturally occurring vaπants can be made by mutagenesis techniques, including those applied to polynucleotides, cells, or organisms T e vanants can contain nucleotide substitutions, deletions, inversions and insertions Variation can occur in either or both the codmg and non-coding regions The vanations can produce both conservative and non- conservative ammo acid substitutions (as compared in the encoded product) In a prefened embodiment, the nucleic acid differs from that of SEQ ID NO 1, SEQ ID NO 11 , SEQ ID NO 3, or SEQ ID NO 13, e g , as follows by at least one but less than 10, 20, 30, or 40 nucleotides; at least one but less than 1%, 5%, 10% or 20% of the nucleotides in the subject nucleic acid. If necessary for this analysis the sequences should be aligned for maximum homology. "Looped" out sequences from deletions or insertions, or mismatches, are considered differences. Orthologs, homologs, and allelic variants can be identified using methods known in the art. These variants comprise a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide that is 50%, at least about 55%, typically at least about 70-75%, more typically at least about 80-85%, and most typically at least about 90-95%) or more identical to the polypeptide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ED NOT2, or a fragment of this sequence. Such nucleic acid molecules can readily be identified as being able to hybridize under a stringency condition described herein, to the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO 1, SEQ ID NOT 1 or a fragment of the sequence. Nucleic acid molecules corresponding to orthologs, homologs, and allelic variants of the 14094 cDNAs of the invention can further be isolated by mapping to the same chromosome or locus as the 14094 gene. Preferred variants include those that are conelated with modulating (stimulating and/or enhancing or inhibiting) cellular proliferation, differentiation, or tumorigenesis; modulating an immune response (i.e. modulating the complementation system); modulatmg hormone production; modulating the blood clotting cascade; or modulating proteolysis of protein substrates. Allelic variants of 14094, e.g., human 14094, include both functional and nonfunctional proteins. Functional allelic variants are naturally occurring amino acid sequence variants of the 14094 protein within a population that maintain the ability to bind peptide sequences and exhibit proteolytic activity. Functional allelic variants will typically contain only conservative substitution of one or more amino acids of SEQ ID NO:2 or 12, or substitution, deletion or insertion of non-critical residues in non-critical regions of the protein. Non-functional allelic variants are naturally-occurring amino acid sequence variants of the 14094, e.g., human 14094, protein within a population that do not have the ability to bind peptide sequences and exhibit proteolytic activity. Non-functional allelic variants will typically contain a non-conservative substitution, a deletion, or insertion, or premature truncation of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2 or 12, or a substitution, insertion, or deletion in critical residues or critical regions of the protein. Moreover, nucleic acid molecules encoding other 14094 family members and, thus, which have a nucleotide sequence which differs from the 14094 sequences of SEQ ID NO 1, 11 , 13, or 3, or the nucleotide sequence of the DNA insert of the plasmid deposited with ATCC as Accession Number are intended to be within the scope of the invention Antisense Nucleic Acid Molecules. Ribozymes and Modified 14094 Nucleic Acid Molecules In another aspect, the invention features, an isolated nucleic acid molecule which is antisense to 14094 An "antisense" nucleic acid can include a nucleotide sequence which is complementary to a "sense" nucleic acid encoding a protein, e g , complementary to the codmg strand of a double-stranded cDNA molecule or complementary to an mRNA sequence The antisense nucleic acid can be complementary to an entire 14094 codmg strand, or to only a portion thereof (e g , the coding region of human 14094 corresponding to SEQ ID NO 3 or 13) In another embodiment, the antisense nucleic acid molecule is antisense to a "noncoding region" of the codmg strand of a nucleotide sequence encoding 14094 (e g , the 5' and 3' untranslated regions) An antisense nucleic acid can be designed such that it is complementary to the entire coding region of 14094 mRNA, but more preferably is an oligonucleotide which is antisense to only a portion of the codmg or noncoding region of 14094 mRNA For example, the antisense ohgonucleotide can be complementary to the region surrounding the translation start site of 14094 mRNA, e g , between the -10 and +10 regions of the target gene nucleotide sequence of interest An antisense oligonucleotide can be, for example, about 7, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50. 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, or more nucleotides in length An antisense nucleic acid of the invention can be constructed using chemical synthesis and enzymatic ligation reactions using procedures known in the art For example, an antisense nucleic acid (e g , an antisense ohgonucleotide) can be chemically synthesized using naturally occurring nucleotides or vanously modified nucleotides designed to increase the biological stability of the molecules or to increase the physical stability of the duplex formed between the antisense and sense nucleic acids, e g , phosphorothioate deπvatives and acπdme substituted nucleotides can be used The antisense nucleic acid also can be produced biologically using an expression vector into which a nucleic acid has been subcloned in an antisense orientation (i e , RNA transcπbed from the inserted nucleic acid will be of an antisense oπentation to a target nucleic acid of interest, descnbed further in the following subsection) The antisense nucleic acid molecules of the invention are typically administered to a subject (e g , by direct injection at a tissue site), or generated in situ such that they hybndize with or bind to cellular mRNA and/or genomic DNA encoding a 14094 protem to thereby inhibit expression of the protem, e g , by inhibiting transcnption and/or translation Alternatively, antisense nucleic acid molecules can be modified to target selected cells and then admmistered systemically For systemic administration, antisense molecules can be modified such that they specifically bmd to receptors or antigens expressed on a selected cell surface, e g , by linking the antisense nucleic acid molecules to peptides or antibodies which bind to cell surface receptors or antigens The antisense nucleic acid molecules can also be delivered to cells usmg the vectors descnbed herem To achieve sufficient intracellular concentrations of the antisense molecules, vector constructs m which the antisense nucleic acid molecule is placed under the control of a strong pol II or pol III promoter are prefeπed In yet another embodiment, the antisense nucleic acid molecule of the invention is an α-anomenc nucleic acid molecule An α-anomeric nucleic acid molecule forms specific double-stranded hybnds with complementary RNA in which, contrary to the usual β -units, the strands run parallel to each other (Gaultier et al (1987) Nucleic Acids Res 15 6625-6641) The antisense nucleic acid molecule can also compnse a 2'-o- methylnbonucleotide (Inoue et al (1987) Nucleic Acids Res 15 6131-6148) or a chimenc RNA-DNA analogue (Inoue etal (1987) FEBS Lett 215 327-330) In still another embodiment, an antisense nucleic acid of the invention is a nbozyme A nbozyme having specificity for a 14094-encodιng nucleic acid can mclude one or more sequences complementary to the nucleotide sequence of a 14094 cDNA disclosed herein (l e , SEQ ID NO 1, 1 1, 13, or 3), and a sequence having known catalytic sequence responsible for mRNA cleavage (see U S Pat No 5,093,246 or Haselhoff and Gerlach (1988) Nature 334 585-591) For example, a denvative of a Tetrahymena L-19 IVS RNA can be constructed in which the nucleotide sequence of the active site is complementary to the nucleotide sequence to be cleaved in a 14094-encodιng mRNA See, e g , Cech et al U S Patent No 4,987,071, and Cech et al U S Patent No 5,116,742 Alternatively, 14094 mRNA can be used to select a catalytic RNA having a specific nbonuclease activity from a pool of RNA molecules See, e g , Bartel, D and Szostak, J W (1993) Science 261 1411- 1418 14094 gene expression can be inhibited by targeting nucleotide sequences complementary to the regulatory region of the 14094 (e g , the 14094 promoter and/or enhancers) to form tnple helical structures that prevent transcπption of the 14094 gene in target cells See generally, Helene, C (1991) Anticancer Drug Des 6 569-84, Helene, C 1 (1992) Ann N Y Acad Sci 660 27-36, and Maher, L J (1992) Bioassays 14 807-15 The potential sequences that can be targeted for tnple helix formation can be increased by creating a so-called "switchback" nucleic acid molecule Switchback molecules are synthesized in an altematmg 5'-3', 3'-5' manner, such that they base pair with first one strand of a duplex and then the other, eliminating the necessity for a sizeable stretch of either punnes or pynmidmes to be present on one strand ofa duplex The invention also provides detectably labeled ohgonucleotide pπmer and probe molecules Typically, such labels are chemiluminescent, fluorescent radioactive, or colonmetnc A 14094 nucleic acid molecule can be modified at the base moiety, sugar moiety or phosphate backbone to improve, e g , the stability, hybndization, or solubility of the molecule For non-limiting examples of synthetic oligonucleotides with modifications see Toulmέ (2001) Nature Biotech 19 17 and Fana et al (200 i) Nature Biotech 19 40-44 Such phosphoramidite oligonucleotides can be effective antisense agents For example, the deoxyribose phosphate backbone of the nucleic acid molecules can be modified to generate peptide nucleic acids (see Hyrup B et l (1996) Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry 4 5-23) As used herein, the terms "peptide nucleic acid" or "PNA" refers to a nucleic acid mimic, e g , a DNA mimic, in which the deoxyπbose phosphate backbone is replaced by a pseudopeptide backbone and only the four natural nucleobases are retained The neutral backbone of PNA can allow for specific hybndization to DNA and RNA under conditions of low ionic strength The synthesis of PNA oligomers can be performed using standard solid phase peptide synthesis protocols as descnbed m Hyrup B et al (1996) supra and Perry-O'Keefe et «/ Proc Natl Acad Sci 93 14670-675 PNAs of 14094 nucleic acid molecules can be used in therapeutic and diagnostic applications For example, PNAs can be used as antisense or antigene agents for sequence- specific modulation of gene expression by, for example, inducing franscnption or translation arrest or inhibiting replication PNAs of 14094 nucleic acid molecules can also be used in the analysis of single base pair mutations in a gene, (e g , by PNA-directed PCR clamping), as 'artificial restriction enzymes' when used in combination with other enzymes, (e g , SI nucleases (Hyrup B et al (1996) supra)), or as probes or pπmers for DNA sequencmg or hybndization (Hyrup B et al (1996) supra, Perry-O'Keefe supra) In other embodiments, the oligonucleotide may include other appended groups such as peptides (e g , for targeting host cell receptors in vivo), or agents facilitating transport

As used herein, a 14094 "chimeric protein" or "fusion protein" includes a 14094 polypeptide linked to a non-14094 polypeptide. A "non-14094 polypeptide" refers to a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence corresponding to a protein which is not substantially homologous to the 14094 protein, e g , a protein which is different from the 14094 protem and which is denved from the same or a different organism The 14094 polypeptide of the fusion protein can coπespond to all or a portion e g , a fragment descnbed herem ofa 14094 amino acid sequence In a prefeπed embodiment, a 14094 fusion protein includes at least one (or two) biologically active portion of a 14094 protem The non-14094 polypeptide can be fused to the N-terminus or C-terminus of the 14094 polypeptide The fusion protein can mclude a moiety which has a high affinity for a ligand For example, the fusion protem can be a GST-14094 fusion protein m which the 14094 sequences are fused to the C-terminus of the GST sequences Such fusion protems can facilitate the punfication of recombinant 14094 Alternatively, the fusion protem can be a 14094 protem containing a heterologous signal sequence at its N-terminus In certain host cells (e g , mammalian host cells), expression and/or secretion of 14094 can be mcreased through use ofa hetero'ogous signal sequence Fusion proteins can mclude all or a part of a serum protem, e g , an IgG constant region, or human serum albumin The 14094 fusion proteins of the invention can be incorporated mto pharmaceutical compositions and admmistered to a subject in vivo The 14094 fusion protems can be used to affect the bioavailabihty ofa 14094 substrate 14094 fusion proteins may be useful therapeutically for the treatment of disorders caused by, for example, (I) aberrant modification or mutation of a gene encodmg a 14094 protein, (u) mis-regulation of the 14094 gene, and (in) abeπant post-translational modification of a 14094 protein Moreover, the 14094-fusιon proteins of the invention can be used as immunogens to produce anti-14094 antibodies in a subject, to purify 14094 ligands and in screening assays to identify molecules which inhibit the interaction of 14094 with a 14094 substrate Expression vectors are commercially available that already encode a fusion moiety (e g , a GST polypeptide) A 14094-encodιng nucleic acid can be cloned into such an expression vector such that the fusion moiety is lmked in-frame to the 14094 protein Vaπants of 14094 Proteins In another aspect, the invention also features a vaπant ofa 14094 polypeptide, e g , which functions as an agonist (mimetics) or as an antagonist Vanants of the 14094 proteins can be generated by mutagenesis, e g , discrete point mutation, the insertion or deletion of sequences or the truncation of a 14094 protein An agonist of the 14094 protems can retam substantially the same, or a subset, of the biological activities of the naturally occurring form ofa 14094 protein An antagonist of a 14094 protein can inhibit one or more of the activities of the naturally occurrmg form of the 14094 protein by, for example, competitively modulating a 14094-mediated activity of a 14094 protein Thus, specific biological effects can be elicited by treatment with a vanant of limited function Preferably , treatment of a subject with a vanant havmg a subset of the biological activities of the naturally occurnng form of the protein has fewer side effects m a subject relative to treatment with the naturally occurnng form of the 14094 protem Vanants ofa 14094 protein can be identified by screening combmatoπal hbranes of mutants, e g , truncation mutants, of 14094 protein for agonist or antagonist activity Libranes of fragments e g , N terminal, C terminal, or internal fragments, of a 14094 protein codmg sequence can be used to generate a vanegated population of fragments for screening and subsequent selection of vanants of a 14094 protein Vanants in which a cysteine residues is added or deleted or in which a residue which is glycosylated is added or deleted are particularly prefeπed Methods for screening gene products of combmatonal libranes made by point mutations or truncation, and for screening cDNA libranes for gene products having a selected property are known in the art Such methods are adaptable for rapid screening of the gene libranes generated by combmatonal mutagenesis of 14094 proteins Recursive ensemble mutagenesis (REM), a new technique which enhances the frequency of functional mutants in the libraries, can be used in combination with the screening assays to identify 14094 vanants (Arkin and Yourvan (1992) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 89 7811 -7815, Delgrave et al (1993) Protein Engineering 6 327-331) Cell based assays can be exploited to analyze a vanegated 14094 library For example, a library of expression vectors can be transfected into a cell line, e g , a cell lme, which ordinanly responds to 14094 in a substrate-dependent manner The transfected cells are then contacted with 14094 and the effect of the expression of the mutant on signaling by the 14094 substrate can be detected Plasmid DNA can then be recovered from the cells which score for inhibition, or alternatively, potentiation of signaling by the 14094 substrate, and the individual clones further charactenzed In another aspect, the invention features a method of making a 14094 polypeptide, e g , a peptide having a non-wild type activity, e g , an antagonist, agonist, or super agonist ofa naturally occurnng 14094 polypeptide, e g , a naturally occuπing 14094 polypeptide The method includes altering the sequence of a 14094 polypeptide, e g , altering the sequence, e g , by substitution or deletion of one or more residues of a non- conserved region, a domain or residue disclosed herein, and testing the altered polypeptide for the desired activity In another aspect, the invention features a method of making a fragment or analog ofa 14094 polypeptide a biological activity of a naturally occurnng 14094 polypeptide The method includes altering the sequence, e g , by substitution or deletion of one or more residues, ofa 14094 polypeptide, e g , altenng the sequence of a non-conserved region, or a domain or residue described herem, and testing the altered polypeptide for the desired activity Anti-14094 Antibodies In another aspect, the invention provides an anti-14094 antibody, or a fragment thereof (e g , an antigen-binding fragment thereof) The term "antibody" as used herem refers to an immunoglobulin molecule or immunologically active portion thereof, I e , an antigen-binding portion As used herein, the term "antibody" refers to a protein compnsing at least one, and preferably two, heavy (H) chain vanable regions (abbreviated herein a*- VH), and at least one and preferably two light (L) chain variable regions (abbreviated herein as VL) The VH and VL regions can be further subdivided into regions of hypervanabihty, termed "complementanty determining regions" ("CDR"), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed "framework regions" (FR) The extent of the framework region and CDR's has been precisely defined (see, Kabat, E A , etal (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest Fifth Edition, U S Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No 91-3242, and Chothia, C et al (1987) J Mol Biol 196 901 -917, which are incorporated herein by reference) Each VH and VL is composed of three CDR's and four FRs, aπanged from ammo-terminus to carboxy-terminus m the following order FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4 The anti-14094 antibody can further include a heavy and light chain constant region, to thereby form a heavy and light immunoglobulin chain, respectively In one embodiment, the antibody is a tetramer of two heavy immunoglobulin chains and two light immunoglobulin chains, wherem the heavy and light immunoglobulin chains are interconnected by, e g , disulfide bonds The heavy chain constant region is compπsed of three domains, CHI , CH2 and CH3 The light chain constant region is compπsed of one domain, CL The vanable region of the heavy and light chains contains a binding domam that interacts with an antigen The constant regions of the antibodies typically mediate the binding of the antibody to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (e g , effector cells) and the first component (Clq) of the classical complement system As used herein, the term "immunoglobulin" refers to a protem consisting of one or more polypeptides substantially encoded by immunoglobulin genes The recognized human immunoglobulin genes mclude the kappa, lambda, alpha (IgAl and IgA2), gamma (IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4), delta, epsilon and mu constant region genes, as well as the mynad immunoglobulin vanable region genes Full-length immunoglobulin "light chains" (about 25 KDa or 214 amino acids) are encoded by a vanable region gene at the NH2- terminus (about 1 10 amino acids) and a kappa or lambda constant region gene at the COOH- -terminus Full-length immunoglobulin "heavy chains" (about 50 KDa or 446 amino acids) are similarly encoded by a vanable region gene (about 116 ammo acids) and one of the other aforementioned constant region genes, e g , gamma (encoding about 330 amino acids) The term "antigen-binding fragment" of an antibody (or simply "antibody portion," or "fragment"), as used herein, refers to one or more fragments of a full-length antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind to the antigen, e g , 14094 polypeptide or fragment thereof Examples of antigen-binding fragments of the anti-14094 antibody include, but are not limited to (i) a Fab fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL and CHI domains, (n) a F(ab')2 fragment, a bivalent fragment compnsing t o Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region, (in) a Fd fragment consistmg of the VH and CHI domains, (iv) a Fv fragment consisting of the VL and VH domains of a single arm of an antibody, (v) a dAb fragment (Ward et al , (1989) Nature 34J_ 544-546), which consists of a VH domain, and (vi) an isolated complementaπty determining region (CDR) Furthermore, although the two domains of the Fv fragment, VL and VH, are coded for by separate genes, they can be joined, using recombinant methods, by a synthetic linker that enables them to be made as a smgle protein chain in which the VL and VH regions pair to form monovalent molecules (known as single chain Fv (scFv), see e g , Bird et al (1988) Science 242 423-426, and Huston etal (1988) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 85 5879-5883) Such single chain antibodies are also encompassed within the term "antigen-binding fragment" of an antibody These antibody fragments are obtained using conventional techniques known to those with skill in the art, and the fragments are screened for utility m the same manner as are intact antibodies The anti-14094 antibody can be a polyclonal or a monoclonal antibody In other embodiments, the antibody can be recombinantly produced, e g , produced by phage display or by combmatonal methods Phage display and combmatonal methods for generating anti-14094 antibodies are known m the art (as descnbed m, e g

For example, a humanized antibody will have framework residues identical to the donor framework residue or to another amino acid other than the recipient framework residue. To generate such antibodies, a selected, small number of acceptor framework residues of the humanized immunoglobulin chain can be replaced by the coπesponding donor amino acids. Prefeπed locations of the substitutions include amino acid residues adjacent to the CDR, or which are capable of interacting with a CDR (see e.g., US 5,585,089). Criteria for selecting amino acids from the donor are described in US 5,585,089, e.g., columns 12-16 of US 5,585,089, the e.g., columns 12-16 of US 5,585,089, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. Other techniques for humanizing antibodies are described in Padlan et al. EP 519596 Al, published on December 23, 1992. In prefeπed embodiments an antibody can be made by immunizing with purified 14094 antigen, or a fragment thereof, e.g., a fragment described herein, membrane associated antigen, tissue, e.g., crude tissue preparations, whole cells, preferably living cells, lysed cells, or cell fractions, e.g., membrane fractions. A full-length 14094 protein or, antigenic peptide fragment of 14094 can be used as an immunogen or can be used to identify anti-14094 antibodies made with other immunogens, e.g., cells, membrane preparations, and the like. The antigenic peptide of 14094 should include at least 8 amino acid residues of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2 or 12 and encompasses an epitope of 14094. Preferably, the antigenic peptide includes at least 10 amino acid residues, more preferably at least 15 amino acid residues, even more preferably at least 20 amino acid residues, and most preferably at least 30 amino acid residues. Fragments of 14094 which include from about amino acids 1 to 46, or 394 to 453 of SEQ ID NO:2 can be used to make, e.g., used as immunogens or used to characterize the specificity of an antibody, antibodies against hydrophilic regions of the 14094 protein. Similarly, a fragment of 14094 which includes from about amino acids 137 to 153 of SEQ ID NO:2 can be used to make an antibody against a hydrophobic region of the 14094 protein. A fragments of 14094 which includes residues about 70 to 453 of SEQ ID NO:2 can be used to make an antibody against an extracellular region of the 14094 protein. A fragments of 14094 which includes residues about 1 to 47 of SEQ ID NO:2 can be used to make an antibody against an intracellular region of the 14094 protein. A fragment of 14094 which mcludes residues about 217 to 443 of SEQ ID NO 2 can be used to make an antibody against the trypsin region of the 14094 protem A fragment of 14094 which includes residues about 110 to 205 of SEQ ID NO 2 can be used to make an antibody against the scavenger receptor cysteine-nch domam of the 14094 protein A fragment of 14094 which includes residues about 71 to 109 of SEQ ID NO 2 can be used to make an antibody against the LDL receptor domain of the 14094 protein The coπesponding regions of SEQ ID NO 12 can also be used to generate an antibody Antibodies reactive with, or specific for, any of these regions, or other regions or domains described herem are provided Antibodies which bind only native 14094 protein, only denatured or otherwise non-native 14094 protem, or which bind both, are with in the mvention Antibodies with linear or conformational epitopes are withm the invention Conformational epitopes can sometimes be identified by identifying antibodies which bind to native but not denatured 14094 protein Prefeπed epitopes encompassed by the antigenic peptide are regions of 14094 are located on the surface of the protem, e g , hydrophilic regions, as well as regions with high antigenicity For example, an Emmi surface probability analysis of the human 14094 protein sequence can be used to mdicate the regions that have a particularly high probability of being localized to the surface of the 14094 protein and are thus likely to constitute surface residues useful for targeting antibody production In a prefeπed embodiment the

Host Cells and Genetically Engineered Cells In another aspect, the mvention includes, vectors, preferably expression vectors. containmg a nucleic acid encodmg a polypeptide descnbed herein As used herem, the term "vector" refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it has been linked and can mclude a plasmid, cosmid or viral vector The vector can be capable of autonomous replication or it can integrate into a host DNA Viral vectors include, e g , replication defective retroviruses, adenoviruses and adeno-associated viruses A vector can include a 14094 nucleic acid in a form suitable for expression of the nucleic acid in a host cell Preferably the recombinant expression vector includes one or more regulatory sequences operatively linked to the nucleic acid sequence to be expressed The term "regulatory sequence" includes promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements (e g , polyadenylation signals) Regulatory sequences mclude those which direct constitutive expression of a nucleotide sequence, as well as tissue-specific regulatory and/or inducible sequences The design of the expression vector can depend on such factors as the choice of the host cell to be transformed, the level of expression of protein desired, and the like The expression vectors of the invention can be introduced mto host cells to thereby produce proteins or polypeptides, mcludmg fusion protems or polypeptides, encoded by nucleic acids as descnbed herein (e g , 14094 proteins, mutant forms of 14094 proteins, fusion proteins, and the like) The

coli, insect cells (e g , usmg baculovirus expression vectors), yeast cells or mammalian cells Suitable host cells are discussed further m Goeddel, (1990) Gene Expression Technology Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, CA Alternatively, the recombinant expression vector can be transcnbed and translated in vitro, for example using T7 promoter regulatory sequences and T7 polymerase Expression of proteins in prokaryotes is most often earned out m E coli with vectors containing constitutive or inducible promoters directing the expression of either fusion or non-fusion protems Fusion vectors add a number of amino acids to a protein encoded therein, usually to the amino terminus of the recombinant protem Such fusion vectors typically serve three purposes 1) to mcrease expression of recombinant protem, 2) to mcrease the solubility of the recombinant protem, and 3) to aid m the punfication of the recombinant protein by acting as a ligand in affinity punfication Often, a proteolytic cleavage site is introduced at the junction of the fusion moiety and the recombmant protem to enable separation of the recombinant protem from the fusion moiety subsequent to punfication of the fusion protein Such enzymes, and their cognate recognition sequences, mclude Factor Xa, thrombm and enterokmase Typical fusion expression vectors mclude pGEX

infect bone aπow cells which are subsequently transplanted to lπadiated recipients The pathology of the subject recipient is then examined after sufficient time has passed (e g , six weeks) To maximize recombinant protein expression in E coli is to express the protein in a host bactena with an impaired capacity to proteolytically cleave the recombmant protem (Gottesman, S , (1990) Gene Expression Technology Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, California 119-128) Another strategy is to alter the nucleic acid sequence of the nucleic acid to be inserted into an expression vector so that the individual codons for each amino acid are those preferentially utilized m E coli (Wada et al , (1992) Nucleic Acids Res 20 2111-2118) Such alteration of nucleic acid

Non-limiting examples of suitable tissue-specific promoters include the albumm promoter (hver-specific, Pinkert etα/ (1987) Genes Dev 1 268-277), lymphoid-specific promoters (Calame and Eaton (1988)

encompassed, for example, the munne hox promoters (Kessel and Gruss (1990) Science 249 374-379) and the α-fetoprotein promoter (Campes and Tilghman (1989) Genes Dev 3 537-546) The invention further provides a recombinant expression vector compnsing a DNA molecule of the invention cloned into the expression vector in an antisense orientation Regulatory sequences (e g , viral promoters and/or enhancers) operatively linked to a nucleic acid cloned in the antisense oπentation can be chosen which direct the constitutive, tissue specific or cell type specific expression of antisense RNA in a vanety of cell types The antisense expression vector can be in the form of a recombinant plasmid, phagemid or attenuated virus Another aspect the mvention provides a host cell which includes a nucleic acid molecule described herein, e g , a 14094 nucleic acid molecule within a recombinant expression vector or a 14094 nucleic acid molecule containing sequences which allow it to homologously recombme mto a specific site of the host cell's genome The terms "host cell" and "recombinant host cell" are used interchangeably herein Such terms refer not only to the particular subject cell but to the progeny or potential progeny of such a cell Because certain modifications may occur in succeedmg generations due to either mutation or environmental influences, such progeny may not, fact, be identical to the parent cell, but are still included withm the scope of the term as used herem A host cell can be any prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell For example, a 14094 protem can be expressed in bactenal cells (such as E coli), insect cells, yeast or mammalian cells (such as Chmese hamster ovary cells (CHO) or COS cells) Other suitable host cells are known to those skilled in the art Vector DNA can be introduced mto host cells via conventional transformation or transfection techniques As used herem, the terms "transformation" and "transfection" are intended to refer to a vaπety of art-recognized techniques for mtroducmg foreign nucleic acid (e g , DNA) into a host cell, including calcium phosphate or calcium chloπde co- precipitation, DEAE-dextran-mediated transfection, hpofection, or electroporation A host cell of the invention can be used to produce (I e , express) a 14094 protein Accordingly, the invention further provides methods for producmg a 14094 protein using the host cello of ihe invention In one embodimenζ the method includes cultunng the host cell of the invention (into which a recombinant expression vector encodmg a 14094 protein has been introduced) in a suitable medium such that a 14094 protein is produced In another embodiment, the method further includes isolating a 14094 protein from the medium or the host cell In another aspect, the mvention features a cell or punfied preparation of cells which include a 14094 transgene, or which otherwise misexpress 14094 The cell preparation can consist of human or non-human cells, e g , rodent cells, e g , mouse or rat cells, rabbit cells, or pig cells In prefeπed embodiments, the cell or cells include a 14094 transgene, e g , a heterologous form ofa 14094, e g , a gene denved from humans (in the case ofa non-human cell) The 14094 transgene can be misexpressed, e g , overexpressed or underexpressed In other prefeπed embodiments, the cell or cells mclude a gene that mis- expresses an endogenous 14094, e g , a gene the expression of which is disrupted, e g , a knockout Such cells can serve as a model for studying disorders that are related to mutated or mis-expressed 14094 alleles or for use in drug screening In another aspect, the mvention features a human cell, e g , a hematopoietic stem cell, transformed with nucleic acid which encodes a subject 14094 polypeptide Also provided are cells, preferably human cells, e g , human hematopoietic or fibroblast cells, in which an endogenous 14094 is under the control of a regulatory sequence that does not normally control the expression of the endogenous 14094 gene The expression charactenstics of an endogenous gene with a cell, e g , a cell lme or microorganism, can be modified by inserting a heterologous DNA regulatory element into the genome of the cell such that the mserted regulatory element is operably lmked to the endogenous 14094 gene For example, an endogenous 14094 gene which is "transcπptionally silent," e g , not normally expressed, or expressed only at very low levels, may be activated by inserting a regulatory element which is capable of promoting the expression of a normally expressed gene product in that cell Techniques such as targeted homologous recombinations, can be used to msert the heterologous DNA as descnbed m, e g , Chappel, US 5,272,071, WO 91/06667, published in May 16, 1991 In a prefeπed embodiment, recombinant cells descnbed herein can be used for replacement therapy in a subject For example, a nucleic acid encodmg a 14094 polypeptide operably lmked to an inducible promoter (e g , a steroid hormone receptor-regulated promoter) is mtroduced mto a human or nonhuman, e g , mammalian, e g , porcine recombmant cell The cell is cultivated and encapsulated in a biocompatible matenal, such as poly-lysme alginate, and subsequently implanted into the subject See, e g , Lanza (1996) Nat Biotechnol 14 1 107, Job etal (2001) Nat Biotechnol 19 35, and U S Patent No 5,876,742 Production of 14094 polypeptide can be regulated in the subject by administenng an agent (e g , a steroid hormone) to the subject In another prefeπed embodiment, the implanted recombinant cells express and secrete an antibody specific for a 14094 polypeptide The antibody can be any antibody or any antibody denvative described herein Transgenic Animals The invention provides non-human transgenic animals Such animals are useful for studying the function and/or activity of a 14094 protein and for identifying and/or evaluating modulators of 14094 activity As used herein, a "transgenic animal" is a non- human animal, preferably a mammal, more preferably a rodent such as a rat or mouse, in which one or more of the cells of the animal includes a transgene. Other examples of transgenic animals include non-human primates, sheep, dogs, cows, goats, chickens, amphibians, and the like. A transgene is exogenous DNA or a reaπangement, e.g., a deletion of endogenous chromosomal DNA, which preferably is integrated into or occurs in the genome of the cells of a transgenic animal. A transgene can direct the expression of an encoded gene product in one or more cell types or tissues of the transgenic animal, other transgenes, e.g., a knockout, reduce expression. Thus, a transgenic animal can be one in which an endogenous 14094 gene has been altered by, e.g., by homologous recombination between the endogenous gene and an exogenous DNA molecule introduced into a cell of the animal, e.g., an embryonic cell of the animal, prior to development of the animal. Intronic sequences and polyadenylation signals can also be included in the transgene to increase the efficiency of expression of the transgene. A tissue-specific regulatory sequence(s) can be operably linked to a transgene of the invention to direct expression of 14094 protein to particular cells. A transgenic founder animal can be identified based upon the presence ofa 14094 transgene in its genome and/or expression of 14094 mRNA in tissues or cells of the animals. A transgenic founder animal can then be used to breed additional animals carrying the transgene. Moreover, transgenic animals carrying a transgene encoding a 14094 protein can further be bred to other transgenic animals carrying other transgenes. 14094 proteins or polypeptides can be expressed in transgenic animals or plants, e.g., a nucleic acid encoding the protein or polypeptide can be introduced into the genome of an animal. In prefeπed embodiments the nucleic acid is placed under the control of a tissue specific promoter, e.g., a milk or egg specific promoter, and recovered from the milk or eggs produced by the animal. Suitable animals are mice, pigs, cows, goats, and sheep. The invention also includes a population of cells from a transgenic animal, as discussed, e.g., below. Uses The nucleic acid molecules, proteins, protein homologues, and antibodies described herein can be used in one or more of the following methods: a) screening assays; b) predictive medicine (e.g., diagnostic assays, prognostic assays, monitoring clinical trials, and pharmacogenetics), c) methods of treatment (e g , therapeutic and prophylactic), and d) in vitro modification of a peptide substrate The isolated nucleic acid molecules of the invention can be used, for example, to express a 14094 protein (e g , via a recombinant expression vector in a host cell m gene therapy applications), to detect a 14094 mRNA (e g , m a biological sample) or a genetic alteration in a 14094 gene, and to modulate 14094 activity, as descnbed further below The 14094 protems can be used to treat disorders charactenzed by insufficient or excessive production ofa 14094 substrate or production of 14094 inhibitors In addition, the 14094 protems can be used to screen for naturally occurnng 14094 substrates, to screen for drugs or compounds which modulate 14094 activity, as well as to treat disorders characteπzed by insufficient or excessn e production of 14094 protein or production of 14094 protem forms which have decreased, abenant or unwanted activity compared to 14094 wild type protem (e g , a cell differentiative or proliferative disorder) Moreover, the anti-14094 antibodies of the mvention can be used to detect and isolate 14094 proteins, regulate the bioavailabihty of 14094 protems, and modulate 14094 activity Further, 14094 polypeptides can be used to process substrate polypeptides (or peptides) in vitro The processed substrate polypeptide can be analyzed to identify substrate fragments that are produced by digestion with 14094 polypeptides Moreover, the 14094 can utilized to digest isolated, but unassigned polypeptides pnor to mass spectroscopy Processed substrate polypeptides can be also used in a pharmaceutical composition A method of evaluating a compound for the ability to mteract with, e g , bmd, a subject 14094 polypeptide is provided The method includes contacting the compound with the subject 14094 polypeptide, and evaluatmg ability of the compound to interact with, e g , to bmd or form a complex with the subject 14094 polypeptide This method can be performed in vitro, e g , in a cell free system, or in vivo, e g , in a two-hybnd interaction trap assay This method can be used to identify naturally occurnng molecules that mteract with subject 14094 polypeptide It can also be used to find natural or synthetic inhibitors of subject 14094 polypeptide Screening methods are discussed m more detail below Screening Assays The invention provides methods (also refeπed to herein as "screening assays") for identifying modulators, l e , candidate or test compounds or agents (e g , proteins, peptides, peptidomimetics, peptoids, small molecules or other drugs) which bind to 14094 protems, have a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on, for example, 14094 expression or 14094 activity, or have a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on, for example, the expression or act ty of a 14094 substrate Compounds thus identified can be used to modulate the activity of target gene products (e g , 14094 genes) in a therapeutic protocol, to elaborate the biological function of the target gene product, or to identify compounds that disrupt normal target gene interactions In one embodiment, the invention provides assays for screening candidate or test compounds which are substrates ofa 14094 protein or polypeptide or a biologically active portion thereof In another embodiment, the mvention provides assays for screening candidate or test compounds that bmd to or modulate an activity of a 14094 protein or polypeptide or a biologically active portion thereof In one embodiment, a proteolytic activity of a 14094 protem can be assayed using a fluorescent substrate, such as a small peptide-amino methyl coumann (AMC) denvative Possible substrates mclude p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester, N-benzoyl-L- arginine p-nitroanilide, N-alpha-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester, Benzoyl-D,L-argιnιne-p- nitroanihde, H-D-Phe-Pip-Arg-p-nitroanihde, Bz-Ile-Glu-Gly-Arg-p-nitroamlide, H-D-Ile- Pro-Arg-p-nitroanilide, N-benzoyl-Leu-Ser-Arg-p-nitroanihde (Kazama et al (1995) J Biol Chem 270 66-72) The 14094 polypeptide can be tagged as descnbed herein, punfied or partially puπfied and assayed for substrate hydrolysis in a variety of assay conditions Samples which show no activity at 0 1 mM protein can be considered in active under those conditions Assay conditions such as buffer, pH, and substrate, can be permuted until an appropπate one is found (e g pH 6 0 to 9 0, including or not including calcium ions) Assaying a 14094 protem activity in the presence of inhibitors can be used to determine the nature of the catalytic activity Inhibitors that can be tested include L-l- Chloro-3-tosylamιdo-4-phenyl-2-butanone, Soybean inhibitor, benzamidme, p-Nitrophenyl- p-guanidmo benzoate (trypsin-hke enzyme), Tosyl-L-lysme chloromethyl ketone, and Tosyl-L-arginine chloromethyl ketone The assay can include additional controls and steps to insure that the observed activity results from a 14094 polypeptide For example, control samples, e g , samples produced from cells transformed with a control vector instead of vector overexpressmg a 14094 nucleic acid, can be tested in parallel The activity can also be tracked in chromatography fractions, e g , to determine if the activity and the 14094 polypeptide co- purify Additional assays and conditions are described, e g , in Yamaoka etal (1998) J Biol Chem 273 1 1895-1 1901, and Thien-Khai et al (1997) J Biol Chem 272 31315-31320 The test compounds of the present invention can be obtained usmg any of the numerous approaches in combmatonal library methods known in the art, including biological libranes, peptoid libranes (libranes of molecules havmg the functionalities of peptides, but with a novel, non-peptide backbone which are resistant to enzymatic degradation but which nevertheless remain bioactive, see, e g , Zuckermann, R N etal (1994) J Med Chem 37 2678-85), spatially addressable parallel solid phase or solution phase libranes, synthetic library methods requinng deconvolution, the 'one-bead one- compound' library method, and synthetic library methods using affinity chromatography selection The biological library and peptoid library approaches are limited to peptide libranes, while the other four approaches are applicable to peptide, non-peptide oligomer or small molecule libraries of compounds (Lam (1997) Anticancer Drug Des 12 145) Examples of methods for the synthesis of molecular libranes can be found m the art, for example in DeWitt etal (1993) P'oc Natl Acad Sci USA 90 6909, Erb etal (1994) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 91 11422, Zuckermann et al (1994) J Med Chem 37 2678, Cho et al (1993) Science 261 1303, Carrell et al (1994) Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 33 2059, Carell et al (1994) Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 33 2061 , and Gallop et al (1994) J Med Chem 37 1233 Libraries of compounds may be presented in solution (e g , Houghten (1992) Biotechnique 13 412-421), or on beads (Lam (1991) Nature 354 82-84), chips (Fodor (1993) Nature 364 555-556), bactena (Ladner, U S Patent No 5,223,409), spores (Ladner U S Patent No 5,223,409), plasmids (Cull etal (1992) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 89 1865- 1869) or on phage (Scott and Smith (1990) Science 249 386-390, Devlm (1990) Science 249 404-406, Cwirla etal (1990) Proc Natl Acad Sci 87 6378-6382, Fe ci (1991) J Mol Biol 222 301-310, Ladner supra ) In one embodiment, an assay is a cell-based assay in which a cell which expresses a 14094 protein or biologically active portion thereof is contacted with a test compound, and the ability of the test compound to modulate 14094 activity is determined Determining the ability of the test compound to modulate 14094 activity can be accomplished by monitoring, for example, proteolytic activity. The cell, for example, can be of mammalian origin, e.g., human. The ability of the test compound to modulate 14094 binding to a compound, e.g., a 14094 substrate, or to bind to 14094 can also be evaluated. This can be accomplished, for example, by coupling the compound, e.g., the substrate, with a radioisotope or enzymatic label such that binding of the compound, e.g., the substrate, to 14094 can be determined by detecting the labeled compound, e.g., substrate, in a complex. Alternatively, 14094 could be coupled with a radioisotope or enzymatic label to monitor the ability of a test compound to modulate 14094 binding to a 14094 substrate in a complex. For example, compounds (e.g., 14094 substrates) can be labeled with 1251, 35g ^ 14 or 3^ either directly or indirectly, and the radioisotope detected by direct counting of radioemmission or by scintillation counting. Alternatively, compounds can be enzymatically labeled with, for example, horseradish peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase, or luciferase, and the enzymatic label detected by determination of conversion of an appropriate substrate to product. The ability of a compound (e.g., a 14094 substrate) to interact with 14094 with or without the labeling of any of the interactants can be evaluated. For example, a microphysiometer can be used to detect the interaction of a compound with 14094 without the labeling of either the compound or the 14094. McConnell, H. M. etal. (1992) Science 257:1906-1912. As used herein, a "microphysiometer" (e.g., Cytosensor) is an analytical instrument that measures the rate at which a cell acidifies its environment using a light- addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS). Changes in this acidification rate can be used as an indicator of the interaction between a compound and 14094. In yet another embodiment, a cell-free assay is provided in which a 14094 protein or biologically active portion thereof is contacted with a test compound and the ability of the test compound to bind to the 14094 protein or biologically active portion thereof is evaluated. Prefeπed biologically active portions of the 14094 proteins to be used in assays of the present invention include fragments which participate in interactions with non-14094 molecules, e.g., fragments with high surface probability scores. Soluble and/or membrane-bound forms of isolated proteins (e.g., 14094 proteins or biologically active portions thereof) can be used in the cell-free assays of the invention. When membrane-bound forms of the protein are used, it may be desirable to utilize a solubilizing agent. Examples of such solubilizing agents include non-ionic detergents such as n-octylglucoside, n-dodecylglucoside, n-dodecylmaltoside, octanoyl-N-methylglucamide, decanoyl-N-methylglucamide, Triton® X-100, Triton® X-114, Thesit®, Isotndecypoly(ethylene glycol ether) n . 3 -[(3-cholamιdopropyl)dιmethylammιnιo]-l -propane sulfonate (CHAPS), 3-[(3-cholamιdopropyl)dιmethylammιnιo]-2-hydroxy-l-propane sulfonate (CHAPS 0). or N-dodecyl=N,N-dιmethyl-3-ammonιo-l -propane sulfonate Cell-free assays mvolve prepanng a reaction mixture of the target gene protem and the test compound under conditions and for a time sufficient to allow the two components to mteract and bmd, thus forming a complex that can be removed and/or detected The interaction between two molecules can also be detected, e , usmg fluorescence energy transfer (FET) (see, for example, Lakowicz etal , U S Patent No 5,631,169, Stavnanopoulos, etα/ , U S Patent No 4,868,103) A fluorophore label on the first, 'donor' molecule is selected such that its emitted fluorescent energy will be absorbed by a fluorescent label on a second, 'acceptor' molecule, which in turn is able to fluoresce due to the absorbed energy Alternately, the 'donor' protein molecule may simply utilize the natural fluorescent energy of tryptophan residues Labels are chosen that emit different wavelengths of light, such that the 'acceptoi' molecule label may be differentiated from that of the 'donor' Since the efficiency of energy transfer between the labels is related to the distance separating the molecules, the spatial relationship between the molecules can be assessed In a situation in which binding occurs between the molecules, the fluorescent emission of the 'acceptor' molecule label m the assay should be maximal An FET binding event can be conveniently measured through standard fluorometπc detection means well known in the art (e g , usmg a fluonmeter) In another embodiment, determining the ability of the 14094 protein to bmd to a target molecule can be accomplished using real-time Biomolecular Interaction Analysis (BIA) (see, e g , Sjolander, S and Urbaniczky, C (\99\) Anal Chem 63 2338-2345 and Szabo etα/ (1995) Curr Opin Struct Biol 5 699-705) "Surface plasmon resonance" or "BIA" detects biospecific interactions in real time, without labeling any of the mteractants (e g , BIAcore) Changes in the mass at the binding surface (indicative of a binding event) result in alterations of the refractive index of light near the surface (the optical phenomenon of surface plasmon resonance (SPR)), resultmg in a detectable signal which can be used as an indication of real-time reactions between biological molecules In one embodiment, the target gene product or the test substance is anchored onto a solid phase The target gene product/test compound complexes anchored on the solid phase can be detected at the end of the reaction Preferably, the target gene product can be anchored onto a solid surface, and the test compound, (which is not anchored), can be labeled, either directly or indirectly, with detectable labels discussed herein It may be desirable to immobilize either 14094, an anti-14094 antibody or its target molecule to facilitate separation of complexed from uncomplexed forms of one or both of the protems, as well as to accommodate automation of the assay Binding of a test compound to a 14094 protem, or interaction ofa 14094 protein with a target molecule in the presence and absence of a candidate compound, can be accomplished m any vessel suitable for containmg the reactants Examples of such vessels mclude microtiter plates, test tubes, and micro-centnfuge tubes In one embodiment, a fusion protem can be provided which adds a domain that allows one or both of the protems to be bound to a matnx For example, glutathιone-S-transferase/14094 fusion protems or glutathione-S-transferase/target fusion proteins can be adsorbed onto glutathione sepharose beads (Sigma Chemical, St Louis, MO) or glutathione deπvatized microtiter plates, which are then combined with the test compound or the test compound and either the non-adsorbed target protem or 14094 protem. and the mixture incubated under conditions conducive to complex formation (e g , at physiological conditions for salt and pH) Following incubation, the beads or microtiter plate wells are washed to remove any unbound components, the matπx immobilized in the case of beads, complex determined either directly or indirectly, for example, as descnbed above Alternatively, the complexes can be dissociated from the matrix, and the level of 14094 binding or activity determined using standard techniques Other techniques for immobilizing either a 14094 protein or a target molecule on matπces include using conjugation of biotin and streptavidin Biotmylated 14094 protein or target molecules can be prepared from biotin-NHS (N-hydroxy-succinimide) usmg techniques known in the art (e g , biotmylation kit, Pierce Chemicals, Rockford, IL), and immobilized in the wells of streptavidm-coated 96 well plates (Pierce Chemical) In order to conduct the assay, the non-immobilized component is added to the coated surface containing the anchored component After the reaction is complete, unreacted components are removed (e g , by washing) under conditions such that any complexes formed will remam immobilized on the solid surface The detection of complexes anchored on the solid surface can be accomplished in a number of ways Where the previously non-immobilized component is pre-labeled, the detection of label immobilized on the surface indicates that complexes were formed Where the previously non-immobilized component is not pre-labeled, an indirect label can be used to detect complexes anchored on the surface, e g , using a labeled antibody specific for the immobilized component (the antibody, in turn, can be directly labeled or indirectly labeled with, e g , a labeled anti-Ig antibody) In one embodiment, this assay is performed utilizing antibodies reactive with 14094 protem or target molecules but which do not interfere with binding of the 14094 protein to its target molecule Such antibodies can be deπvatized to the wells of the plate, and unbound target or 14094 protein trapped m the wells by antibody conjugation Methods for detecting such complexes, in addition to those descnbed above for the GST-immobilized complexes, include lmmunodetection of complexes using antibodies reactive with the 14094 protem or target molecule, as well as enzyme-linked assays which rely on detectmg an enzymatic activity associated with the 14094 protein or target molecule Alternatively, cell free assays can be conducted m a liquid phase In such an assay, the reaction products are separated from unreacted components, by any of a number of standard techniques, including but not limited to differential centπfugation (see, for example, Rivas, G , and Minton, A P , (1993) Trends Biochem Sci 18 284-7), chromatography (gel filtration chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography), electrophoresis (see, e g , Ausubel, F etal , eds Cuπent Protocols in Molecular Biology 1999, J Wiley New York ), and immunoprecipitation (see, for example, Ausubel, F et al , eds (1999) Current Protocols n Molecular Biology, J Wiley New York) Such resms and chro atographic techniques are known to one skilled in the art (see, e g , Heegaard, N H . ( 1998) JMol Recognit 1 1 141-8, Hage, D S , and Tweed, S A (1997) J Chromatogr B Biomed Sci Appl 699 499-525) Further, fluorescence energy transfer may also be conveniently utilized, as descnbed herein, to detect binding without further punfication of the complex from solution In a prefeπed embodiment, the assay includes contacting the 14094 protein or biologically active portion thereof with a known compound which binds 14094 to form an assay mixture, contacting the assay mixture with a test compound, and determining the ability of the test compound to interact with a 14094 protein, wherein determining the ability of the test compound to interact with a 14094 protein includes determining the ability of the test compound to preferentially bind to 14094 or biologically active portion thereof, or to modulate the activity of a target molecule, as compared to the known compound. The target gene products of the invention can, in vivo, interact with one or more cellular or extracellular macromolecules, such as proteins. For the purposes of this discussion, such cellular and extracellular macromolecules are refeπed to herein as "binding partners." Compounds that disrupt such interactions can be useful in regulating the activity of the target gene product. Such compounds can include, but are not limited to molecules such as antibodies, peptides, and small molecules. The prefeπed target genes/products for use in this embodiment are the 14094 genes herein identified. In an alternative embodiment, the invention provides methods for determining the ability of the test compound to modulate the activity of a 14094 protein through modulation of the activity of a downstream effector of a 14094 target molecule. For example, the activity of the effector molecule on an appropriate target can be determined, or the binding of the effector to an appropriate target can be determined, as previously described. To identify compounds that interfere with the interaction between the target gene product and its cellular or extracellular binding partner(s), a reaction mixture containing the target gene product and the binding partner is prepared, under conditions and for a time sufficient, to allow the two products to form complex. In order to test an inhibitory agent, the reaction mixture is provided in the presence and absence of the test compound. The test compound can be initially included in the reaction mixture, or can be added at a Li e subsequent to the addition of the target gene and its cellular or extracellular binding partner. Control reaction mixtures are incubated without the test compound or with a placebo. The formation of any complexes between the target gene product and the cellular or extracellular binding partner is then detected. The formation of a complex in the control reaction, but not in the reaction mixture containing the test compound, indicates that the compound interferes with the interaction of the target gene product and the interactive binding partner. Additionally, complex formation within reaction mixtures containing the test compound and normal target gene product can also be compared to complex formation within reaction mixtures containing the test compound and mutant target gene product. This comparison can be important in those cases wherein it is desirable to identify compounds that disrupt interactions of mutant but not normal target gene products. These assays can be conducted in a heterogeneous or homogeneous format. Heterogeneous assays involve anchoring either the target gene product or the binding partner onto a solid phase, and detecting complexes anchored on the solid phase at the end of the reaction In homogeneous assays, the entire reaction is earned out m a liquid phase In either approach, the order of addition of reactants can be vaπed to obtain different information about the compounds being tested For example, test compounds that interfere with the interaction between the target gene products and the bindmg partners, e g , by competition, can be identified by conducting the reaction m the presence of the test substance Alternatively, test compounds that disrupt preformed complexes, e g , compounds with higher bindmg constants that displace one of the components from the complex, can be tested by addmg the test compound to the reaction mixture after complexes have been formed The vanous foπnats are bnefly descnbed below In a heterogeneous assay system, either the target gene product or the interactive cellular or extracellular bindmg partner, is anchored onto a solid surface (e g , a microtiter plate), while the non-anchored species is labeled, either directly or indirectly The anchored species can be immobilized by non-covalent or covalent attachments Alternatively, an immobilized antibody specific for the species to be anchored can be used to anchor the species to the solid surface In order to conduct the assay, the partner of the immobilized species is exposed to the coated surface with or without the test compound After the reaction is complete, unreacted components are removed (e g , by washing) and any complexes formed will remain immobilized on the solid surface Where the non-immobihzed species is pre- labeled, the detection of label immobilized on the surface indicates that complexes were formed Where the non-immobilized species is not pre-labeled, an mdirect label can be used to detect complexes anchored on the surface, e g , using a labeled antibody specific for the initially non-immobihzed species (the antibody, in turn, can be directly labeled or indirectly labeled with, e g , a labeled anti-Ig antibody) Depending upon the order of addition of reaction components, test compounds that inhibit complex formation or that disrupt preformed complexes can be detected Alternatively, the reaction can be conducted in a liquid phase in the presence or absence of the test compound, the reaction products separated from unreacted components, and complexes detected, e g , using an immobilized antibody specific for one of the binding components to anchor any complexes formed in solution, and a labeled antibody specific for the other partner to detect anchored complexes Again, depending upon the order of addition of reactants to the liquid phase, test compounds that inhibit complex or that disrupt preformed complexes can be identified. In an alternate embodiment of the invention, a homogeneous assay can be used. For example, a preformed complex of the target gene product and the interactive cellular or extracellular binding partner product is prepared in that either the target gene products or their binding partners are labeled, but the signal generated by the label is quenched due to complex formation (see, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 4,109,496 that utilizes this approach for immunoassays). The addition of a test substance that competes with and displaces one of the species from the preformed complex will result in the generation of a signal above background. In this way, test substances that disrupt target gene product-binding partner interaction can be identified. In yet another aspect, the 14094 proteins can be used as "bait proteins" in a two- hybrid assay or three-hybrid assay (see, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,283,317; Zervos et al. (1993) Cell 72:223-232; Madura etal. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268:12046-12054; Bartel etal. (1993) Biotechniques 14:920-924; Iwabuchi et al. (1993) Oncogene 8:1693-1696; and Brent WO94/10300), to identify other proteins, which bind to or interact with 14094 ("14094- binding proteins" or "14094-bp") and are involved in 14094 activity. Such 14094-bps can be activators or inhibitors of signals by the 14094 proteins or 14094 targets as, for example, downstream elements ofa 14094-mediated signaling pathway. The two-hybrid system is based on the modular nature of most transcription factors, which consist of s parable DNA-binding and activation domains. Briefly, the assay- utilizes two different DNA constructs. In one construct, the gene that codes for a 14094 protein is fused to a gene encoding the DNA binding domain of a known transcription factor (e.g., GAL-4). In the other construct, a DNA sequence, from a library of DNA sequences, that encodes an unidentified protein ("prey" or "sample") is fused to a gene that codes for the activation domain of the known transcription factor. (Alternatively the: 14094 protein can be the fused to the activator domain.) If the "bait" and the "prey" proteins are able to interact, in vivo, forming a 14094-dependent complex, the DNA-binding and activation domains of the transcription factor are brought into close proximity. This proximity allows transcription of a reporter gene (e.g., lacZ) which is operably linked to a transcriptional regulatory site responsive to the transcription factor. Expression of the reporter gene can be detected and cell colonies containing the functional transcription factor can be isolated and used to obtain the cloned gene which encodes the protein which interacts with the 14094 protein. In another embodiment, modulators of 14094 expression are identified. For example, a cell or cell free mixture is contacted with a candidate compound and the expression of 14094 mRNA or protein evaluated relative to the level of expression of 14094 mRNA or protein in the absence of the candidate compound. When expression of 14094 mRNA or protein is greater in the presence of the candidate compound than in its absence, the candidate compound is identified as a stimulator of 14094 mRNA or protein expression. Alternatively, when expression of 14094 mRNA or protein is less (statistically significantly less) in the presence of the candidate compound than in its absence, the candidate compound is identified as an inhibitor of 14094 mRNA or protein expression. The level of 14094 mRNA or protein expression can be determined by methods described herein for detecting 14094 mRNA or protein. In another aspect, the invention pertains to a combination of two or more of the assays described herein. For example, a modulating agent can be identified using a cell- based or a cell free assay, and the ability of the agent to modulate the activity of a 14094 protein can be confirmed in vivo, e.g., in an animal such as an animal model for cancer. This invention further pertains to novel agents identified by the above-described screening assays. Accordingly, it is within the scope of this invention to further use an agent identified as described herein (e.g., a 14094 modulating agent, an antisense 14094 nucleic acid molecule, a 14094-specific antibody, or a 14094-binding partner) in an appropriate animal model to determine the efficacy, toxicity, side effects, or mechanism of action, of treatment with such an agent. Furthermore, novel agents identified by the above-described screening assays can be used for treatments as described herein. Detection Assays Portions or fragments of the nucleic acid sequences identified herein can be used as polynucleotide reagents. For example, these sequences can be used to: (i) map their respective genes on a chromosome e.g., to locate gene regions associated with genetic disease or to associate 14094 with a disease; (ii) identify an individual from a minute biological sample (tissue typing); and (iii) aid in forensic identification ofa biological sample. These applications are described in the subsections below. Chromosome Mapping The 14094 nucleotide sequences or portions thereof can be used to map the location of the 14094 genes on a chromosome This process is called chromosome mapping Chromosome mapping is useful m coπelating the 14094 sequences with genes associated with disease Bnefly, 14094 genes can be mapped to chromosomes by prepanng PCR pnmers (preferably 15-25 bp in length) from the 14094 nucleotide sequences These pnmers can then be used for PCR screenmg of somatic cell hybnds containing individual human chromosomes Only those hybnds containing the human gene coπespondmg to the 14094 sequences will yield an amplified fragment A panel of somatic cell hybnds m which each cell line contains either a smgle human chromosome or a small number of human chromosomes, and a full set of mouse chromosomes, can allow easy mapping of individual genes to specific human chromosomes (D'Eustachio P et al (1983) Science 220 919-924) Other mapping strategies e g , in situ hybndization (descnbed in Fan, Y etal (1990) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 87 6223-27), pre-screenmg witi. labeled flow-sorted chromosomes, and pre-selection by hybridization to chromosome specific cDNA libranes can be used to map 14094 to a chromosomal location Fluorescence in situ hybndization (FISH) ofa DNA sequence to a metaphase chromosomal spread can further be used to provide a precise chromosomal location m one step The FISH technique can be used with a DNA sequence as short as 500 or 600 bases However, clones larger than 1,000 bases have a higher likelihood of binding to a unique chromosomal location with sufficient signal intensity for simple detection Preferably 1,000 bases, and more preferably 2,000 bases will suffice to get good results at a reasonable amount of time For a review of this technique, see Verma et al , Human Chromosomes A Manual of Basic Techniques ((1988) Pergamon Press, New York) Reagents for chromosome mapping can be used individually to mark a single chromosome or a single site on that chromosome, or panels of reagents can be used for marking multiple sites and/or multiple chromosomes Reagents coπesponding to noncoding regions of the genes actually are preferred for mapping purposes Coding sequences are more likely to be conserved withm gene families, thus increasing the chance of cross hybndizations during chromosomal mapping Once a sequence has been mapped to a precise chromosomal location, the physical position of the sequence on the chromosome can be coπelated with genetic map data (Such data are found, for example, in V McKusick, Mendehan Inhentance m Man. available on-line through Johns Hopkins University Welch Medical Library) The relationship between a gene and a disease, mapped to the same chromosomal region, can then be identified through linkage anal sis (co-inhentance of physically adjacent genes), descnbed in, for example, Egeland, J et al (1987) Nature, 325 783-787 Moreover, differences in the DNA sequences between individuals affected and unaffected with a disease associated with the 14094 gene, can be determined If a mutation is observed m some or all of the affected individuals but not in any unaffected individuals, then the mutation is likely to be the causative agent of the particular disease Companson of affected and unaffected individuals generally mvolves first looking for structural alterations m the chromosomes, such as deletions or translocations that are visible from chromosome spreads or detectable using PCR based on that DNA sequence Ultimately, complete sequencing of genes from several mdividuals can be performed to confirm the presence of a mutation and to distinguish mutations from polymorphisms Tissue Typing 14094 sequences can be used to identify individuals from biological samples using, e g , restnction fragment length polymoφhism (RFLP) In this technique, an individual's genomic DNA is digested with one or more restnction enzymes, the fragments separated, e g , in a Southern blot, and probed to yield bands for identification The sequences of the present invention are useful as additional DNA markers for RFLP (descnbed in U S Patent 5,272,057) Furthermore, the sequences of the present mvention can also be used to determine the actual base-by-base DNA sequence of selected portions of an individual's genome Thus, the 14094 nucleotide sequences descnbed herein can be used to prepare two PCR primers from the 5' and 3' ends of the sequences These primers can then be used to amplify an individual's DNA and subsequently sequence it Panels of coπesponding DNA sequences from individuals, prepared in this manner, can provide unique individual identifications, as each individual will have a unique set of such DNA sequences due to allelic differences Allelic vaπation occurs to some degree in the coding regions of these sequences, and to a greater degree in the noncodmg regions Each of the sequences descnbed herem can, to some degree, be used as a standard against which DNA from an individual can be compared for identification purposes Because greater numbers of polymoφhisms occur in the noncoding regions, fewer sequences are necessary to differentiate individuals The noncodmg sequences of SEQ ID NO 1 or SEQ ID NO 1 1 can provide positive individual identification with a panel of perhaps 10 to 1,000 primers which each yield a noncodmg amplified sequence of 100 bases If predicted coding sequences, such as those m SEQ ID NO 3 or 13 are used, a more appropπate number of pnmers for positive individual identification would be 500-2,000 If a panel of reagents from 14094 nucleotide sequences descnbed herem is used to generate a unique identification database for an individual, those same reagents can later be used to identify tissue from that individual Using the umque identification database, positive identification of the individual, living or dead, can be made from extremely small tissue samples Use of Partial 14094 Sequences m Forensic Biology DNA-based identification techniques can also be used in forensic biology To make such an identification, PCR technology can be used to amplify DNA sequences taken from very small biological samples such as tissues, e g , hair or skin, or body fluids, e g , blood, saliva, or semen found at a cπme scene The amplified sequence can then be compared to a standard, thereby allowing identification of the ongin of the biological sample The sequences of the present invention can be used to provide polynucleotide reagents, e g , PCR pnmers, targeted to specific loci in the human genome, which can enhance the reliability of DNA-based forensic identifications by, for example, providing another "identification marker" (I e another DNA sequence that is unique to a particular individual) As mentioned above, actual base sequence information can be used for identification as an accurate alternative to patterns formed by restnction enzyme generated fragments Sequences targeted to noncoding regions of SEQ ID NO 1 or 11 (e g , fragments denved from the noncoding regions of SEQ ID NO 1 or 1 1 havmg a length of at least 20 bases, preferably at least 30 bases) are particularly appropnate for this use The 14094 nucleotide sequences described herein can further be used to provide polynucleotide reagents, e g , labeled or labelable probes which can be used m, for example, an in situ hybπdization technique, to identify a specific tissue This can be very useful in cases where a forensic pathologist is presented with a tissue of unknown oπgin Panels of such 14094 probes can be used to identify tissue by species and/or by organ type In a similar fashion, these reagents, e g , 14094 pnmers or probes can be used to screen tissue culture for contamination (1 e screen for the presence of a mixture of different types of cells in a culture) Predictive Medicine The present mvention also pertains to the field of predictive medicine m which diagnostic assays, prognostic assays, and mo.utonng clinical tnals are used for prognostic (predictive) puφoses to thereby treat an individual Generally, the mvention provides, a method of determ ing if a subject is at nsk for a disorder related to a lesion in or the misexpression of a gene which encodes 14094. Such disorders include, e g , a disorder associated with the misexpression of a 14094 molecule, a disorder of the immune, or blood clotting system The method includes one or more of the following detectmg, in a tissue of the subject, the presence or absence of a mutation which affects the expression of the 14094 gene, or detectmg the presence or absence of a mutation in a region which controls the expression of the gene, e g , a mutation in the 5' control region, detecting, in a tissue of the subject, the presence or absence of a mutation which alters the structure of the 14094 gene, detecting, in a tissue of the subject, the misexpression of the 14094 gene, at the mRNA level, e g , detecting a non- wild type level of a mRNA , detecting, in a tissue of the subject, the misexpression of the gene, at the protein level, e g , detecting a non-wild type level of a 14094 polypeptide In prefeπed embodiments the method mcludes ascertaining the existence of at least one of a deletion of one or more nucleotides from the 14094 gene, an insertion of one or more nucleotides into the gene, a point mutation, e g , a substitution of one or more nucleotides of the gene, a gross chromosomal rearrangement of the gene, e g , a translocation, inversion, or deletion For example, detecting the genetic lesion can include (1) providmg a probe/pπmer including an oligonucleotide contaming a region of nucleotide sequence which hybπdizes to a sense or antisense sequence from SEQ ID NO 1 or 1 1, or naturally occurnng mutants thereof or 5' or 3' flanking sequences naturally associated with the 14094 gene, (π) exposing the probe/pnmer to nucleic acid of the tissue, and detecting, by hybndization, e g , in situ hybndization, of the probe/primer to the nucleic acid, the presence or absence of the genetic lesion In preferred embodiments detecting the misexpression mcludes ascertaining the existence of at least one of an alteration in the level of a messenger RNA transcnpt of the 14094 gene, the presence of a non-wild type splicing pattem ofa messenger RNA transcπpt of the gene, or a non-wild type level of 14094 Methods of the mvention can be used prenatally or to determine if a subject's offspnng will be at πsk for a disorder In prefeπed embodiments the method mcludes deteπnimng the structure of a 14094 gene, an abnormal structure being indicative of nsk for the disorder In prefeπed embodiments the method includes contacting a sample from the subject with an antibody to the 14094 protein or a nucleic acid, which hybπdizes specifically with the gene These and other embodiments are discussed below Diagnostic and Prognostic Assays Diagnostic and prognostic assays of the invention mclude method for assessing the expression level of 14094 molecules and for identifying vanations and mutations in the sequence of 14094 molecules Expression Monitoring and Profiling. The presence, level, or absence of 14094 protein or nucleic acid in a biological sample can be evaluated by obtaining a biological sample from a test subject and contacting the biological sample with a compound or an agent capable of detecting 14094 protein or nucleic acid (e g , mRNA, genomic DNA) that encodes 14094 protein such that the presence of 14094 protein or nucleic acid is detected in the biological sample The term "biological sample" includes tissues, cells and biological fluids isolated from a subject, as well as tissues, cells and fluids present within a subject A prefeπed biological sample is serum The level of expression of the 14094 gene can be measured in a number of ways, including, but not limited to measunng the mRNA encoded by the 14094 genes, measunng the amount of protein encoded by the 14094 genes, or measunng the activity of the protein encoded by the 14094 genes The level of mRNA coπesponding to the 14094 gene in a cell can be deteπnined both by in situ and by in vitro formats The isolated mRNA can be used in hybndization or amplification assays that include, but are not limited to, Southern or Northern analyses, polymerase chain reaction analyses and probe aπa s One prefeπed diagnostic method for the detection of mRNA levels mvolves contactmg the isolated mRNA with a nucleic acid molecule (probe) that can hybndize to the mRNA encoded by the gene being detected The nucleic acid probe can be, for example, a full-length 14094 nucleic acid, such as the nucleic acid of SEQ ID NO 1 or 11, or a portion thereof, such as an oligonucleotide of at least 7, 15, 30, 50, 100, 250 or 500 nucleotides in length and sufficient to specifically hybndize under stringent conditions to 14094 mRNA or genomic DNA The probe can be disposed on an address of an aπay, e g , an aπay descnbed below Other suitable probes for use m the diagnostic assays are descnbed herein In one format. mRNA (or cDNA) is immobilized on a surface and contacted with the probes, for example by running the isolated mRNA on an agarose gel and transferring the mRNA from the gel to a membrane, such as nitrocellulose In an alternative format, the probes are immobilized on a surface and the mRNA (or cDNA) is contacted with the probes, for example, in a two-dimensional gene chip aπay descnbed below A skilled artisan can adapt known mRNA detection methods for use in detectmg the level of mRNA encoded by the 14094 genes The level of mRNA in a sample that is encoded by one of 14094 can be evaluated with nucleic acid amplification, e g , by rtPCR (Mulhs (1987) U S Patent No 4,683,202), ligase chain reaction (Barany (1991) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 88 189-193). self sustained sequence replication (Guatelh et al , (1990) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 87 1874-1878), transcriptional amplification system (Kwoh et al , (1989), Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 86 1 173-1 177), Q-Beta Rephcase (Lizardi et al , (1988) Bio/Technology 6 1 197), rolling circle replication (Lizardi et al , U S Patent No 5,854,033) or any other nucleic acid amplification method, followed by the detection of the amplified molecules using techniques known in the art As used herem, amplification pnmers are defined as being a pair of nucleic acid molecules that can anneal to 5' or 3' regions of gene (plus and minus strands, respectively, or vice-versa) and contain a short region in between In general, amplification pnmers are from about 10 to 30 nucleotides in length and flank a region from about 50 to 200 nucleotides in length Under appropriate conditions and with appropπate reagents, such pnmers permit the amplification of a nucleic acid molecule compnsing the nucleotide sequence flanked by the pnmers For in situ methods, a cell or tissue sample can be prepared/processed and immobilized on a support, typically a glass slide, and then contacted with a probe that can hybndize to mRNA that encodes the 14094 gene be g analyzed In another embodiment, the methods further

14094 mRNA or genomic DNA m the test sample In still another embodiment, senal analysis of gene expression, as descnbed m U S Patent No 5,695,937, is used to detect 14094 transcnpt levels A vanety of methods can be used to determine the level of protem encoded by 14094 In general, these methods mclude contacting an agent that selectively bmds to the protem, such as an antibody with a sample, to evaluate the level of protein in the sample In a prefeπed embodiment, the antibody bears a detectable label Antibodies can be polyclonal, or more preferably, monoclonal An intact antibody, or a fragment thereof (e g , Fab or F(ab')2) can be used The term 'labeled", with regard to the probe or antibody, is intended to encompass direct labeling of the probe or antibody by coupling (I e , physically unking) a detectable substance to the probe or antibody, as well as mdirect labeling of the probe or antibody by reactivity with a detectable substance Examples of detectable substances are provided herein The detection methods can be used to detect 14094 protem m a biological sample in vitro as well as in vivo In vitro techniques for detection of 14094 protein include enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), lmmunoprecipitations, immunofluorescence, enzyme immunoassay (EIA), radioimmunoassay (RIA), and Western blot analysis In vivo techniques for detection of 14094 protein include introducing mto a subject a labeled anti-14094 antibody For example, the antibody can be labeled with a radioactive marker whose presence and location in a subject can be detected by standard imaging techniques In another embodiment, the sample is labeled, e g , biotmylated and then contacted to the antibody, e g , an anti-14094 antibody positioned on an antibody aπay (as descnbed below) The sample can be detected, e g , with avidm coupled to a fluorescent label In another embodiment, the methods further mclude contacting the control sample with a compound or agent capable of detecting 14094 protein, and companng the presence of 14094 protein in the control sample with the presence of 14094 protein m the test sample The invention also includes kits for detectmg the

The kit can also includes a buffeπng agent, a preservative, or a protein stabilizing agent The kit can also includes components necessary for detecting the detectable agent (e g , an enzyme or a substrate) The kit can also contain a control sample or a senes of control samples which can be assayed and compared to the test sample contained Each component of the kit can be enclosed within an individual container and all of the vaπous containers can be within a single package, along with instructions for inteφreting the results of the assays performed using the kit The diagnostic methods descnbed herein can identify subjects having, or at nsk of developing, a disease or disorder associated with misexpressed or abenant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity As used herein, the term "unwanted" mcludes an unwanted phenomenon involved in a biological response such as cancer or deregulated cell proliferation In one embodiment, a disease or disorder associated with abenant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity is identified A test sample is obtained from a subject and 14094 protein or nucleic acid (e g , mRNA or genomic DNA) is evaluated, wherein the level, e g , the presence or absence, of 14094 protein or nucleic acid is diagnostic for a subject having or at nsk of developing a disease or disorder associated with abeπant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity As used herem, a "test sample" refers to a biological sample obtamed from a subject of interest, including a biological fluid (e g , serum), cell sample, or tissue The prognostic assays descnbed herem can be used to determine whether a subject can be administered an agent (e g , an agonist, antagonist, peptidomimetic, protein, peptide, nucleic acid, small molecule, or other drug candidate) to treat a disease or disorder associated with abeπant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity For example, such methods can be used to determine whether a subject can be effectively treated with an agent for a cell proliferative or differentiative disorder In another aspect, the invention features a computer medium having a plurality of digitally encoded data records Each data record includes a value representing the level of expression of 14094 in a sample, and a descnptor of the sample The descnptor of the sample can be an identifier of the sample, a subject from which the sample was denved (e g , a patient), a diagnosis, or a treatment (e g , a prefeπed treatment) In a prefeπed embodiment, the data record further mcludes values representing the level of expression of genes other than 14094 (e g , other genes associated with a 14094-dιsorder, or other genes on an aπay) The data record can be structured as a table, e g , a table that is part of a database such as a relanonal database (e g , a SQL database of the Oracle or Sybase database environments) Also featured is a method of evaluating a sample The method mcludes providmg a sample, e g from the subject, and determining a gene expression profile of the sample, wherein the profile includes a value representing the level of 14094 expression The method can further include companng the value or the profile (l e , multiple values) to a reference value or reference profile The gene expression profile of the sample can be obtained by any of the methods descnbed herein (e g , by providing a nucleic acid from the sample and contacting the nucleic acid to an aπay) The method can be used to diagnose a a cell proliferative disorder in a subject wherein an increase in 14094 expression is an indication that the subject has or is disposed to havmg a cell proliferative disorder The method can be used to monitor a treatment for a cell proliferative disorder in a subject For example, the gene expression profile can be determined for a sample from a subject undergoing treatment. The profile can be compared to a reference profile or to a profile obtained from the subject prior to treatment or prior to onset of the disorder (see, e.g., Golub et al. (1999) Science 286:5 1). In yet another aspect, the invention features a method of evaluating a test compound (see also, "Screening Assays", above). The method includes providing a cell and a test compound; contacting the test compound to the cell; obtaining a subject expression profile for the contacted cell; and comparing the subject expression profile to one or more reference profiles. The profiles include a value representing the level of 14094 expression. In a prefeπed embodiment, the subject expression profile is compared to a target profile, e.g., a profile for a normal cell or for desired condition of a cell. The test compound is evaluated favorably if the subject expression profile is more similar to the target profile than an expression profile obtained from an uncontacted cell. In another aspect, the invention features, a method of evaluating a subject. The method includes: a) obtaining a sample from a subject, e.g., from a caregiver, e.g., a caregiver who obtains the sample from the subject; b) determining a subject expression profile for the sample. Optionally, the method further includes either or both of steps: c) comparing the subject expression profile to one or more reference expression profiles; and d) selecting the reference profile most similar to the subject reference profile. The subject expression profile and the reference profiles include a value representing the level of 14094 expression. A variety of routine statistical measures can be used to compare two reference profiles. One possible metric is the length of the distance vector that is the difference between the two profiles. Each of the subject and reference profile is represented as a multidimensional vector, wherein each dimension is a value in the profile. The method can further include transmitting a result to a caregiver. The result can be the subject expression profile, a result of a comparison of the subject expression profile with another profile, a most similar reference profile, or a descriptor of any of the aforementioned. The result can be transmitted across a computer network, e.g., the result can be in the form of a computer transmission, e.g., a computer data signal embedded in a carrier wave. Also featured is a computer medium having executable code for effecting the following steps: receive a subject expression profile; access a database of reference expression profiles; and either i) select a matching reference profile most similar to the subject expression profile or ii) determine at least one comparison score for the similarity of the subject expression profile to at least one reference profile. The subject expression profile, and the reference expression profiles each include a value representing the level of 14094 expression. Arrays and Uses Thereof In another aspect, the invention features an array that includes a substrate having a plurality of addresses. At least one address of the plurality includes a capture probe that binds specifically to a 14094 molecule (e.g., a 14094 nucleic acid or a 14094 polypeptide). The aπay can have a density of at least than 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000, 2,000, or 10,000 or more addresses/cm 2 , and ranges between. In a prefeπed embodiment, the plurality of addresses includes at least 10, 100, 500, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, 50,000 addresses. In a preferred embodiment, the plurality of addresses includes equal to or less than 10, 100, 500, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, or 50,000 addresses. The substrate can be a two-dimensional substrate such as a glass slide, a wafer (e.g., silica or plastic), a mass spectroscopy piate, or a three- dimensional substrate such as a gel pad. Addresses in addition to address of the plurality can be disposed on the aπay. In a prefeπed embodiment, at least one address of the plurality includes a nucleic acid capture probe that hybridizes specifically to a 14094 nucleic acid, e.g., the sense or anti-sense strand. In one prefeπed embodiment, a subset of addresses of the plurality of addresses has a nucleic acid capture probe for 14094. Each address of the subset can include a capture probe that hybridizes to a different region of a 14094 nucleic acid. In another prefeπed embodiment, addresses of the subset include a capture probe for a 14094 nucleic acid. Each address of the subset is unique, overlapping, and complementary to a different variant of 14094 (e.g., an allelic variant, or all possible hypothetical variants). The aπay can be used to sequence 14094 by hybridization (see, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,695,940). An array can be generated by various methods, e.g., by photolithographic methods (see, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5,143,854; 5,510,270; and 5,527,681), mechanical methods (e.g., directed-flow methods as described in U.S. Patent No. 5,384,261), pin-based methods (e.g., as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,288,514), and bead-based techniques (e.g., as described in PCT US/93/04145). In another prefeπed embodiment, at least one address of the plurality includes a polypeptide capture probe that binds specifically to a 14094 polypeptide or fragment thereof. The polypeptide can be a naturally-occurring interaction partner of 14094 polypeptide. Preferably, the polypeptide is an antibody, e.g., an antibody described herein (see "Anti- 14094 Antibodies," above), such as a monoclonal antibody or a single-chain antibody. In another aspect, the invention features a method of analyzing the expression of 14094. The method includes providing an aπay as described above; contacting the aπay with a sample and detecting binding of a 14094-molecule (e.g., nucleic acid or polypeptide) to the aπay. In a prefeπed embodiment, the aπay is a nucleic acid aπay. Optionally the method further includes amplifying nucleic acid from the sample prior or during contact with the aπay. In another embodiment, the aπay can be used to assay gene expression in a tissue to ascertain tissue specificity of genes in the aπay, particularly the expression of 14094. If a sufficient number of diverse samples is analyzed, clustering (e.g., hierarchical clustering, k-means clustering, Bayesian clustering and the like) can be used to identify other genes which are co-regulated with 14094. For example, the aπay can be used for the quantitation of the expression of multiple genes. Thus, not only tissue specificity, but also the level of expression of a battery of genes in the tissue is ascertained. Quantitative data can be used to group (e.g., cluster) genes on the basis of their tissue expression per se and level of expression in that tissue. For example, aπay analysis of gene expression can be used to assess the effect of cell-cell interactions on 14094 expression. A first tissue can be perturbed and nucleic acid from a second tissue that interacts with the first tissue can be analyzed. In this context, the effect of one cell type on another cell type in response to a biological stimulus can be determined, e.g., to monitor the effect of cell-cell interaction at the level of gene expression. In another embodiment, cells are contacted with a therapeutic agent. The expression profile of the cells is determined using the aπay, and the expression profile is compared to the profile of like cells not contacted with the agent. For example, the assay can be used to determine or analyze the molecular basis of an undesirable effect of the therapeutic agent. If an agent is administered therapeutically to treat one cell type but has an undesirable effect on another cell type, the invention provides an assay to determine the molecular basis of the undesirable effect and thus provides the opportunity to co-administer a counteracting agent or otherwise treat the undesired effect. Similarly, even within a single cell type, undesirable biological effects can be determined at the molecular level. Thus, the effects of an agent on expression of other than the target gene can be ascertained and counteracted. In another embodiment, the array can be used to monitor expression of one or more genes in the aπay w ith respect to time For example, samples obtained from different time points can be probed with the array Such analysis can identify and/or charactenze the development of a 14094-assocιated disease or disorder, and processes, such as a cellular transformation associated with a 14094-associated disease or disorder The method can also evaluate the treatment and/or progression of a 14094-associated disease or disorder The aπay is also useful for ascertaining differential expression patterns of one or more genes in normal and abnoπnal cells This provides a battery of genes (e g , mcludmg 14094) that could serve as a molecular target for diagnosis or therapeutic intervention In another aspect, the mvention features an aπay having a plurality of addresses Each address of the plurality includes a unique polypeptide At least one address of the plurality has disposed thereon a 14094 polypeptide or fragment thereof Methods of producmg polypeptide aπays are descnbed in the art, e g , in De Wildt et al (2000) Nature Biotech 18, 989-994, Lueking et α/ (1999) Anal Biochem 270, 103-111, Ge, H (2000) Aucleic Acids Res 28, e3, 1-VII, MacBeath, G , and Schreiber, S L (2000) Science 289 1760-1763, and WO 99/51773A1 In a prefeπed embodiment, each addresses of the plurality has disposed thereon a polypeptide at least 60, 70, 80,85, 90, 95 or 99 % identical to a 14094 polypeptide or fragment thereof For example, multiple vanants ofa 14094 polypeptide (e g , encoded by allelic vanants, site-directed mutants, random mutants, or combmatonal mutants) can be disposed at individual addresses of the plurality Addresses in addition to the address of the plurality can be disposed on the array The polypeptide aπay can be used to detect a 14094 binding compound, e g an antibody in a sample from a subject with specificity for a 14094 polypeptide or the presence of a 14094-bιndmg protein or ligand The array is also useful for ascertaining the effect of the expression ofa gene on the expression of other genes in the same cell or in different cells (e g , ascertaining the effect of 14094 expression on the expression of other genes) This provides, for example for a selection of alternate molecular targets for therapeutic intervention if the ultimate or downstream target cannot be regulated In another aspect, the mvention features a method of analyzing a plurality of probes The method is useful, e g , for analyzing gene expression The method includes providing a two dimensional aπay havmg a plurality of addresses, each address of the plurality being positionally distinguishable from each other address of the plurality having a unique capture probe, e.g., wherein the capture probes are from a cell or subject which express 14094 or from a cell or subject in which a 14094 mediated response has been elicited, e.g., by contact of the cell with 14094 nucleic acid or protein, or administration to the cell or subject 14094 nucleic acid or protein; providing a two dimensional aπay having a plurality of addresses, each address of the plurality being positionally distinguishable from each other address of the plurality, and each address of the plurality having a unique capture probe, e.g., wherein the capture probes are from a cell or subject which does not express 14094 (or does not express as highly as in the case of the 14094 positive plurality of capture probes) or from a cell or subject which in which a 14094 mediated response has not been elicited (or has been elicited to a lesser extent than in the first sample); contacting the aπay with one or more inquiry probes (which is preferably other than a 14094 nucleic acid, polypeptide, or antibody), and thereby evaluating the plurality of capture probes. Binding, e.g., in the case of a nucleic acid, hybridization with a capture probe at an address of the plurality, is detected, e.g., by signal generated from a label attached to the nucleic acid, polypeptide, or antibody. In another aspect, the invention features a method of analyzing a plurality of probes or a sample. The method is useful, e.g., for analyzing gene expression. The method includes: providing a two dimensional aπay having a plurality of addresses, each address of the plurality being positionally distinguishable from each other address of the plurality having a unique capture probe, contacting the aπay with a first sample from a cell or subject which express or mis-express 14094 or from a cell or subject in which a 14094-mediated response has been elicited, e.g., by contact of the cell with 14094 nucleic acid or protein, or administration to the cell or subject 14094 nucleic acid or protein; providing a two dimensional aπay having a plurality of addresses, each address of the plurality being positionally distinguishable from each other address of the plurality, and each address of the plurality having a unique capture probe, and contacting the aπay with a second sample from a cell or subject which does not express 14094 (or does not express as highly as in the case of the 14094 positive plurality of capture probes) or from a cell or subject which in which a 14094 mediated response has not been elicited (or has been elicited to a lesser extent than in the first sample); and comparing the binding of the first sample with the binding of the second sample. Binding, e.g., in the case of a nucleic acid, hybridization with a capture probe at an address of the plurality, is detected, e.g., by signal generated from a label attached to the nucleic acid, polypeptide, or antibody. The same aπay can be used for both samples or different aπays can be used. If different aπays are used the plurality of addresses with capture probes should be present on both aπays. In another aspect, the invention features a method of analyzing 14094, e.g., analyzing structure, function, or relatedness to other nucleic acid or amino acid sequences. The method includes: providing a 14094 nucleic acid or amino acid sequence; comparing the 14094 sequence with one or more preferably a plurality of sequences from a collection of sequences, e.g., a nucleic acid or protein sequence database; to thereby analyze 14094. Detection of Variations or Mutations The methods of the invention can also be used to detect genetic alterations in a 14094 gene, thereby determining if a subject with the altered gene is at risk for a disorder characterized by misreguiation in 14094 protein activity or nucleic acid expression, such as a cell proliferative or differentiative disorder. In prefeπed embodiments, the methods include detecting, in a sample from the subject, the presence or absence of a genetic alteration characterized by at least one of an alteration affecting the integrity of a gene encoding a 14094-protein, or the mis-expression of the 14094 gene. For example, such genetic alterations can be detected by ascertaining the existence of at least one of 1) a deletion of one or more nucleotides from a 14094 gene; 2) an addition of one or more nucleotides to a 14094 gene; 3) a substitution of one or more nucleotides of a 14094 gene, 4) a chromosomal reaπangement of a 14094 gene; 5) an alteration in the level of a messenger RNA transcript of a 14094 gene, 6) abeπant modification of a 14094 gene, such as of the methylation pattem of the genomic DNA, 7) the presence of a non- wild type splicing pattem of a messenger RNA transcript of a 14094 gene, 8) a non-wild type level of a 14094-protein, 9) allelic loss ofa 14094 gene, and 10) inappropriate post-translational modification ofa 14094-protein. An alteration can be detected without a probe/primer in a polymerase chain reaction, such as anchor PCR or RACE PCR, or, alternatively, in a ligation chain reaction (LCR), the latter of which can be particularly useful for detecting point mutations in the 14094-gene. This method can include the steps of collecting a sample of cells from a subject, isolating nucleic acid (e.g., genomic, mRNA or both) from the sample, contacting the nucleic acid sample with one or more primers which specifically hybridize to a 14094 gene under conditions such that hybridization and amplification of the 14094-gene (if present) occurs, and detecting the presence or absence of an amplification product, or detecting the size of the amplification product and companng the length to a control sample It is anticipated that PCR and/or LCR may be desirable to use as a preliminary amplification step in conjunction with any of the techniques used for detectmg mutations descnbed herein Alternatively, other amplification methods descnbed herein or known in the art can be used In another embodiment, mutations in a 14094 gene from a sample cell can be identified by detecting alterations m restnction enzyme cleavage patterns For example, sample and control DNA is isolated, amplified (optionally), digested with one or more restriction endonucleases, and fragment length sizes are determined, e g , by gel electrophoresis and compared Differences in fragment length sizes between sample and control DNA indicates mutations m the sample DNA Moreover, the use of sequence specific πbozymes (see, for example, U S Patent No 5,498,531) can be used to score for the presence of specific mutations by development or loss of a nbozyme cleavage site In other embodiments, genetic mutations in 14094 can be identified by hybndizing a sample and control nucleic acids, e g , DNA or RNA, two-dimensional aπays, e g , chip based aπays Such aπays include a plurality of addresses, each of which is positionally distinguishable from the other A different probe is located at each address o'~ the plurality A probe can be complementary to a region of a 14094 nucleic acid or a putative vanant (e g , allelic vanant) thereof A probe can have one or more mismatches to a region ofa 14094 nucleic acid (e g , a destabilizing mismatch) The arrays can ha\e a high density of addresses, e g , can contain hundreds or thousands of oligonucleotides probes (Cronin, M T et al (1996) Human Mutation 1 244-255, Kozal, M J etal (1996) Nature Medicine 2 753-759) For example, genetic mutations in 14094 can be identified in two- dimensional aπays containing light-generated DNA probes as descnbed in Cronin, M T et al supra Bnefly, a first hybndization aπay of probes can be used to scan through long stretches of DNA in a sample and control to identify base changes between the sequences by making linear aπays of sequential overlapping probes This step allows the identification of point mutations This step is followed by a second hybndization aπay that allows the charactenzation of specific mutations by using smaller, specialized probe aπays complementary to all vanants or mutations detected Each mutation aπay is composed of parallel probe sets, one complementary to the wild-type gene and the other complementary to the mutant gene In yet another embodiment, any ofa vaπety of sequencmg reactions known m the art can be used to directly sequence the 14094 gene and detect mutations by companng the sequence of the sample 14094 with the coπesponding wild-type (control) sequence Automated sequencing procedures can be utilized when performing the diagnostic assays ((1995) Biotechniques 19 448), including sequencing by mass spectrometry Other methods for detectmg mutations m the 14094 gene include methods m which protection from cleavage agents is used to detect mismatched bases in RNA/RNA or RNA/DNA heteroduplexes (Myers et al (1985) Science 230 1242, Cotton etal (1988) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 85 4397, Saleeba etal (1992) Methods Enzymol 217 286-295) In still another embodiment, the mismatch cleavage reaction employs one or more proteins that recognize mismatched base pairs m double-stranded DNA (so called "DNA mismatch repair" enzymes) in defined systems for detectmg and mapping pomt mutations in 14094 cDNAs obtained from samples of cells For example, the mutY enzyme of E coli cleaves A at G/A mismatches and the thymidine DNA glycosylase from HeLa cells cleaves T at G/T mismatches (Hsu etal (1994) Carcinogenesis 15 1657-1662, U S Patent No 5,459,039) In other embodiments, alterations in electrophoretic mobility will be used to identify mutations m 14094 genes For example, single strand conformation polymoφhism (SSCP) may be used to detect differences in electrophoretic mobility between mutant and wild type nucleic acids (Onta et al (1989) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 86 2766, see also Cotton (1993) Mutat Res 285 125-144, and Hayashi (1992) Genet Anal Tech Appl 9 73- 79) Single-stranded DNA fragments of sample and control 14094 nucleic acids will be denatured and allowed to renature The secondary structure of single-stranded nucleic acids vanes according to sequence, the resulting alteration in electrophoretic mobility enables the detection of even a single base change The DNA fragments may be labeled or detected with labeled probes The sensitivity of the assay may be enhanced by using RNA (rather than DNA), in which the secondary structure is more sensitive to a change in sequence In a prefeπed embodiment, the subject method utilizes heteroduplex analysis to separate double stranded heteroduplex molecules on the basis of changes in electrophoretic mobility (Keen etal (1991) Trends Genet ! 5) In yet another embodiment, the movement of mutant or wild-type fragments in polyacrylamide gels containing a gradient of denaturant is assayed using denatunng gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) (Myers etal (1985) Nature 313 495) When DGGE is used as the method of analysis, DNA will be modified to insure that it does not completely denature, for example by adding a GC clamp of approximately 40 bp of high-melting GC-nch DNA by PCR. In a further embodiment, a temperature gradient is used in place ofa denaturing gradient to identify differences in the mobility of control and sample DNA (Rosenbaum and Reissner (1987) Biophys Chem 265:12753). Examples of other techniques for detecting point mutations include, but are not limited to, selective oligonucleotide hybridization, selective amplification, or selective primer extension (Saiki et al. (1986) Nature 324:163); Saiki et al. (1989) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci USA 86:6230). A further method of detecting point mutations is the chemical ligation of oligonucleotides as described in Xu etal. ((2001) Nature Biotechnol. 19:148). Adjacent oligonucleotides, one of which selectively anneals to the query site, are ligated together if the nucleotide at the query site of the sample nucleic acid is complementary to the query oligonucleotide; ligation can be monitored, e.g., by fluorescent dyes coupled to the oligonucleotides. Alternatively, allele specific amplification technology that depends on selective PCR amplification may be used in conjunction with the instant invention. Oligonucleotides used as primers for specific amplification may carry the mutation of interest in the center of the molecule (so that amplification depends on differential hybridization) (Gibbs etal. (1989) Nucleic Acids Res. 17:2437-2448) or at the extreme 3' end of one primer where, under appropriate conditions, mismatch can prevent, or reduce polymerase extension (Prossner (1993) Tibtech 1 1 :2 8). In addition it may be desirable to introduce a novel restriction site in the region of the mutation to create cleavage-based detection (Gasparini ef al. (\992)Mol. Cell Probes 6:1). It is anticipated that in certain embodiments amplification may also be performed using Taq ligase for amplification (Barany (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci USA 88: 189). In such cases, ligation will occur only if there is a perfect match at the 3' end of the 5' sequence making it possible to detect the presence ofa known mutation at a specific site by looking for the presence or absence of amplification. In another aspect, the invention features a set of oligonucleotides. The set includes a plurality of oligonucleotides, each of which is at least partially complementary (e.g., at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 92%, 95%, 97%, 98%, or 99% complementary) to a 14094 nucleic acid. In a prefeπed embodiment the set includes a first and a second oligonucleotide. The first and second oligonucleotide can hybridize to the same or to different locations of SEQ ID NO: 1 or 11 or the complement of SEQ ID NOT or 11. Different locations can be different but overlapping, or non-overlapping on the same strand. The first and second oligonucleotide can hybridize to sites on the same or on different strands. The set can be useful, e.g., for identifying SNP's, or identifying specific alleles of 14094. In a prefeπed embodiment, each oligonucleotide of the set has a different nucleotide at an inteπogation position. In one embodiment, the set includes two oligonucleotides, each complementary to a different allele at a locus, e.g., a biallelic or polymoφhic locus. In another embodiment, the set includes four oligonucleotides, each having a different nucleotide (e.g., adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymidine) at the inteπogation position. The interrogation position can be a SNP or the site ofa mutation. In another prefeπed embodiment, the oligonucleotides of the plurality are identical in sequence to one another (except for differences in length). The oligonucleotides can be provided with differential labels, such that an oligonucleotide that hybridizes to one allele provides a signal that is distinguishable from an oligonucleotide that hybridizes to a second allele. In still another embodiment, at least one of the oligonucleotides of the set has a nucleotide change at a position in addition to a query position, e.g., a destabilizing mutation to decrease the T m of the oligonucleotide. In another embodiment, at least one oligonucleotide of the set has a non-natural nucleotide, e.g., inosine. In a prefeπed embodiment, the oligonucleotides are attached to a solid support, e.g., to different addresses of an aπay or to different beads or nanoparticles. In a prefeπed embodiment the set of oligo nucleotides can be used to specifically amplify, e.g., by PCR, or detect, a 14094 nucleic acid. The methods described herein may be performed, for example, by utilizing prepackaged diagnostic kits comprising at least one probe nucleic acid or antibody reagent described herein, which may be conveniently used, e.g., in clinical settings to diagnose patients exhibiting symptoms or family history of a disease or illness involving a 14094 Use of 14094 Molecules as Suπogate Markers The 14094 molecules of the invention are also useful as markers of disorders or disease states, as markers for precursors of disease states, as markers for predisposition of disease states, as markers of drug activity, or as markers of the pharmacogenomic profile of a subject. Using the methods described herein, the presence, absence and/or quantity of the 14094 molecules of the invention may be detected, and may be coπelated with one or more biological states in vivo For example, the 14094 molecules of the invention may serve as suπogate markers for one or more disorders or disease states or for conditions leadmg up to disease states As used herein, a "suπogate marker" is an objective biochemical marker which coπelates with the absence or presence of a disease or disorder, or with the progression of a disease or disorder (e g , with the presence or absence of a tumor) The presence or quantity of such markers is mdependent of the disease Therefore, these markers may serve to indicate whether a particular course of treatment is effective m lessening a disease state or disorder Surrogate markers are of particular use when the presence or extent of a disease state or disorder is difficult to assess through standard methodologies (e g , early stage tumors), or when an assessment of disease progression is desired before a potentially dangerous clinical endpomt is reached (e g , an assessment of cardiovascular disease may be made using cholesterol levels as a suπogate marker, and an analysis of HIV infection may be made using HIV RNA levels as a suπogate marker, well in advance of the undesirable clinical outcomes of myocardial infarction or fully-developed AIDS) Examples of the use of suπogate markers in the art include Koomen et al (2000) J Mass Spectrom 35 258-264, and James (.1994) AIDS Treatment News Archive 209 The 14094 molecules of the mvention are also useful as pharmacodynamic markers As used herein, a "pharmacodynamic marker" is an objective biochemical marker which coπelates specifically with drug effects The presence or quantity of a pharmacodynamic marker is not related to the disease state or disorder for which the drug is being administered, therefore, the presence or quantity of the marker is indicative of the presence or activity of the drug in a subject For example, a pharmacodynamic marker may be indicative of the concentration of the drug in a biological tissue, in that the marker is either expressed or transcnbed or not expressed or transcnbed in that tissue in relationship to the level of the drug In this fashion, the distnbution or uptake of the drug may be monitored by the pharmacodynamic marker Similarly, the presence or quantity of the pharmacodynamic marker may be related to the presence or quantity of the metabolic product of a drug, such that the presence or quantity of the marker is indicative of the relative breakdown rate of the drug in vivo Pharmacodynamic markers are of particular use in increasing the sensitivity of detection of drug effects, particularly when the drug is administered m low doses Since even a small amount of a drug may be sufficient to activate multiple rounds of marker (e g , a 14094 marker) transcπption or expression, the amplified marker may be in a quantity which is more readily detectable than the drug itself. Also, the marker may be more easily detected due to the nature of the marker itself; for example, using the methods described herein, anti-14094 antibodies may be employed in an immune-based detection system for a 14094 protein marker, or 14094-specific radiolabeled probes may be used to detect a 14094 mRNA marker. Furthermore, the use of a pharmacodynamic marker may offer mechanism-based prediction of risk due to drug treatment beyond the range of possible direct observations. Examples of the use of pharmacodynamic markers in the art include: Matsuda et al US 6,033,862; Hattis etal. (1991) Env. Health Per spect. 90: 229-238; Schentag (Λ999) Am. J. Health-Syst. Pharm. 56 Suppl. 3: S21-S24; and Nicolau (\ 999) Am, J. Health-Syst. Pharm. 56 Suppl. 3: S16-S20. The 14094 molecules of the invention are also useful as pharmacogenomic markers. As used herein, a "pharmacogenomic marker" is an objective biochemical marker which coπelates with a specific clinical drug response or susceptibility in a subject (see, e.g., McLeo et al. (1999) Eur. J. Cancer 35:1650-1652). The presence or quantity of the pharmacogenomic marker is related to the predicted response of the subject to a specific drug or class of drugs prior to administration of the drug. By assessing the presence or quantity of one or more pharmacogenomic markers in a subject, a drug therapy which is most appropriate for the subject, or which is predicted to have a greater degree of success, may be selected. For example, based on the presence or quantity of RNA, or protein (e.g., 14094 protein or RNA) for specific tumor markers in a subject, a drug or course of treatment may be selected that is optimized for the treatment of the specific tumor likely to be present in the subject. Similarly, the presence or absence of a specific sequence mutation in 14094 DNA may coπelate 14094 drug response. The use of pharmacogenomic markers therefore permits the application of the most appropriate treatment for each subject without having to administer the therapy. Pharmaceutical Compositions The nucleic acid and polypeptides, fragments thereof, as well as anti-14094 antibodies (also refeπed to herein as "active compounds") of the invention can be incoφorated into pharmaceutical compositions. Such compositions typically include the nucleic acid molecule, protein, or antibody and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be achieved by various antibactenal and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like In many cases, it will be preferable to include lsotoruc agents, for example, sugars, polyalcohols such as manitol, sorbitol, sodium chlonde the composition Prolonged absoφtion of the injectable compositions can be brought about by including in the composition an agent which delays absoφtion, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin Steπle injectable solutions can be prepared by mcoφoratmg the active compound in the required amount in an appropπate solvent with one or a combmation of ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filtered stenhzation Generally, dispersions are prepared by incoφorating the active compound mto a stenle vehicle which contains a basic dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above In the case of steπle powders for the preparation of stenle injectable solutions, the prefeπed methods of

embodiment, the active compounds are prepared with earners that will protect the compound agamst rapid elimination from the body, such as a controlled release formulation, including implants and microencapsulated delivery systems Biodegradable, biocompatible polymers can be used, such as ethylene vinyl acetate, polyanhydndes, poiyglycolic acid, collagen, polyorthoesters, and polylactic acid Methods for preparation of such formulations will be apparent to those skilled in the art The matenals can also be obtained commercially from Alza Coφoration and Nova Pharmaceuticals, Inc Liposomal suspensions (including liposomes targeted to infected cells with monoclonal antibodies to viral antigens) can also be used as pharmaceutically acceptable earners These can be prepared according to methods known to those skilled in the art, for example, as descnbed m U S Patent No 4.522,811 It is advantageous to formulate oral or parenteral compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the subject to be treated, each un't containmg a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical camer Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such compounds can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures m cell cultures or expeπmental animals, e g , for determining the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective m 50% of the population) The dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it can be expressed as the ratio LD50/ED50 Compounds which exhibit high therapeutic indices are prefeπed While compounds that exhibit toxic side effects may be used, care should be taken to design a delivery system that targets such compounds to the site of affected tissue in order to minimize potential damage to uninfected cells and, thereby, reduce side effects The data obtained from the cell culture assays and animal studies can be used in formulating a range of dosage for use in humans The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED50 with little or no toxicity The dosage may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized For any compound used in the method of the invention, the therapeutically effective dose can be estimated initially from cell culture assays A dose may be formulated in animal models to achieve a circulating plasma concentration range that mcludes the IC50 (1 e , the concentration of the test compound which achieves a half-maximal inhibition of symptoms) as determined in cell culture Such information can be used to more accurately determine useful doses in humans Levels in plasma may be measured, for example, by high performance liquid chromatography As defined herem, a therapeutically effective amount of protem or polypeptide (1 e , an effective dosage) ranges from about 0 001 to 30 mg/kg body weight, preferably about 0 01 to 25 mg/kg body weight, more preferably about 0 1 to 20 mg/kg body weight, and even more preferably about 1 to 10 mg/kg, 2 to 9 mg/kg, 3 to 8 mg/kg, 4 to 7 mg/kg, or 5 to 6 mg/kg body weight The protem or polypeptide can be administered one time per week for between about 1 to 10 weeks, preferably between 2 to 8 weeks, more preferably between about 3 to 7 weeks, and even more preferably for about 4, 5, or 6 weeks The skilled artisan will appreciate that certain factors may influence the dosage and timing required to effectively treat a subject, including but not limited to the seventy of the disease or disorder, previous treatments, the general health and/or age of the subject, and other diseases present Moreover, treatment of a sub|ect with a therapeutically effective amount of a protein, polypeptide, or antibody can include a single treatment or, preferably, can include a series of treatments For antibodies, the prefeπed dosage is 0 1 mg/kg of body weight (generally 10 mg/kg to 20 mg/kg) If the antibody is to act in the brain, a dosage of 50 mg kg to 100 mg kg is usually appropnate Generally, partially human antibodies and fully human antibodies have a longer half-life within the human body than other antibodies Accordingly, lower dosages and less frequent administration is often possible Modifications such as lipidation can be used to stabilize antibodies and to enhance uptake and tissue penetration (e g , into the brain) A method for lipidation of antibodies is described by Cruikshank et al ((1997) J Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes and Human Retroviro logy 14 193) The present invention encompasses agents which modulate expression or activity An agent may, for example, be a small molecule For example, such

expression or activity to be modulated When one or more of these small molecules is to be administered to an animal (e g , a human) in order to modulate expression or activity of a polypeptide or nucleic acid of the mvention, a physician, -/etennanan, or researcher may, for example, prescπbe a relatively low dose at first, subsequently increasing the dose until an appropnate response is obtained In addition, it is understood that the specific dose level for any particular animal subject will depend upon a vaπety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, gender, and diet of the subject, the time of administration, the route of administration, the rate of excretion, any drug combination, and the degree of expression or activity to be modulated An antibody (or fragment thereof) may be conjugated to a therapeutic moiety such as a cytotoxin, a therapeutic agent or a radioactive metal ion A cytotoxm or cytotoxic agent

heteroconjugate as descnbed by Segal in U S Patent No 4,676,980 The nucleic acid molecules of the mvention can be mserted mto vectors and used as gene therapy vectors Gene therapy vectors can be delivered to a subject by, for example, intravenous injection, local administration (see U S Patent 5,328,470) or by stereotactic injection (see e g , Chen et al (1994) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 91 3054-3057) The pharmaceutical preparation of the gene therapy vector can include the gene therapy vector in an acceptable diluent, or can compπse a slow release matπx m which the gene delivery vehicle is imbedded Alternatively, where the complete gene delivery vector can be produced mtact from recombinant cells, e g , retroviral vectors, the pharmaceutical preparation can include one or more cells which produce the gene delivery system The pharmaceutical compositions can be included in a container, pack, or dispenser together with instructions for administration Methods of Treatment The present invention provides for both prophylactic and therapeutic methods of treating a subject at nsk of (or susceptible to) a disorder or having a disorder associated with aberrant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity As used herein, the term "treatment" is defined as the application or administration of a therapeutic agent to a patient, or application or administration of a therapeutic agent to an isolated tissue or cell line from a patient, who has a disease, a symptom of disease or a predisposition toward a disease, with the puφose to cure, heal, alleviate, relieve, alter, remedy, ameliorate, improve or affect the disease, the symptoms of disease or the predisposition toward disease A therapeutic agent mcludes, but is not limited to, small molecules, peptides, antibodies, nbozymes and antisense oligonucleotides With regards to both prophylactic and therapeutic methods of treatment, such treatments may be specifically tailored or modified, based on knowledge obtained from the field of pharmacogenomics "Pharmacogenomics", as used herem, refers to the application of genomics technologies such as gene sequencing, statistical genetics, and gene expression analysis to drugs in clinical development and on the market More specifically, the term refers the study of how a patient's genes determine his or her response to a drug (e g , a patient's "drug response phenotype", or "drug response genotype" ) Thus, another aspect of the invention provides methods for tailonng an individual's prophylactic or therapeutic treatment with either the 14094 molecules of the present invention or 14094 modulators accordmg to that individual's drug response genotype Pharmacogenomics allows a clinician or physician to target prophylactic or therapeutic treatments to patients who will most benefit from the treatment and to avoid treatment of patients who will expenence toxic drug- related side effects In one aspect, the mvention provides a method for preventing in a subject, a disease or condition associated with an abeπant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity, by administenng to the subject a 14094 or an agent which modulates 14094 expression or at least one 14094 activity Subjects at nsk for a disease which is caused or contnbuted to by abeπant or unwanted 14094 expression or activity can be identified by, for example, any or a combination of diagnostic or prognostic assays as descnbed herem Administration of a prophylactic agent can occur pnor to the manifestation of symptoms charactenstic of the 14094 abeπance, such that a disease or disorder is prevented or, alternatively, delayed in its progression Depending on the type of 14094 abeπance, for example, a 14094, 14094 agonist or 14094 antagonist agent can be used for treating the subject The appropnate agent can be determined based on screening assays described herem It is possible that some 14094 disorders can be caused, at least in part, by an abnormal level of gene product, or by the presence of a gene product exhibiting abnormal activity As such, the reduction in the level and/or activity of such gene products would bnng about the amelioration of disorder symptoms As descnbed above, the 14094 mRNA levels are significantly upregulated in cancerous cells and tissues of the breast, ovary, colon, liver, and lung (see the Examples, below) The 14094 mRNA is expressed, although at lower levels, in normal tissues from the breast, kidney, liver, brain, and aorta Accordingly, it is likely that 14094 molecules may be involved in disorders charactenzed by abeπant activity of these non-malignant cells Thus, the 14094 molecules can act as novel diagnostic targets and therapeutic agents for controlling disorders involving abeπant activity in these cells Disorders

interstitial cell tumor), angiomyohpoma, and oncocytoma. and malignant tumors, including renal cell carcinoma (hypernephroma, adenocarcinoma of kidney), which includes urothelial carcinomas of renal pelvis As discussed, successful treatment of 14094 disorders can be brought about by techniques that serve to inhibit the expression or activity of target gene products For example, compounds, e g , an agent identified using an assays descnbed above, that proves to exhibit negative modulatory activity, can be used in accordance with the invention to prevent and/or ameliorate symptoms of 14094 disorders Such molecules can include, but are not limited to peptides, phosphopeptides, small organic or inorganic molecules, or antibodies (including, for example, polyclonal, monoclonal, humanized, anti-idiotypic, chimenc or single chain antibodies, and Fab, F(ab') and Fab expression library fragments, scFV molecules, and epitope-bindmg fragments thereof) Further, antisense and nbozyme molecules that inhibit expression of the target gene can also be used in accordance with the invention to reduce the level of target gene expression, thus effectively reducing the level of target gene activity Still further, tnple helix molecules can be utilized in reducing the level of target gene activity Antisense, ribozyme and tnple helix molecules are discussed above It is possible that the use of antisense, nbozyme, and/or tnple helix molecules to reduce or inhibit mutant gene expression can also reduce or inhibit the transcnption (tnple helix) and/or translation (antisense, nbozyme) of mRNA produced by normal target gene alleles, such that the concentration of normal target gene product present can be lower than is necessary for a normal phenotype In such cases, nucleic acid molecules that encode and express target gene polypeptides exhibiting normal target gene activity can be introduced into cells via gene therapy method Alternatively, in instances in that the target gene encodes an extracellular protem, it can be preferable to co-administer normal target gene protein into the cell or tissue in order to maintain the requisite level of cellular or tissue target gene activity Another method by which nucleic acid molecules may be utilized in treating or preventing a disease charactenzed by 14094 expression is through the use of aptamer molecules specific for 14094 protein Aptamers are nucleic acid molecules having a tertiary structure which permits them to specifically bind to protem ligands (see, e g , Osborne, et al (1997) Curr Opin Chem Biol 1 5-9, and Patel. D J (1997) Curr Opin Chem Biol 1 32- 46) Since nucleic acid molecules may in many cases be more conveniently introduced into target cells than therapeutic protein molecules may be, aptamers offer a method by which 14094 protein activity may be specifically decreased without the mtroduction of drugs or other molecules which may have pluπpotent effects Antibodies can be generated that are both specific for target gene product and that reduce target gene product activity Such antibodies may, therefore, by administered instances whereby negative modulatory techniques are appropnate for the treatment of 14094 disorders For a descnption of antibodies, see the Antibody section above In circumstances wherein injection of an animal or a human subject with a 14094 protein or epitope for stimulating antibody production is harmful to the subject, it is possible to generate an immune response against 14094 through the use of anti-idiotypic antibodies (see, for example, Herlyn, D (1999) AnnMed 31 66-78, and Bhattachary a- Chatterjee, M , and Foon, K.A (1998) Cancer Treat Res 94 51-68) If an anti-idioty pic antibody is introduced into a mammal or human subject, it should stimulate the production of anti-anti-idiotypic antibodies, which should be specific to the 14094 protein Vaccines directed to a disease characteπzed by 14094 expression may also be generated in this fashion In instances where the target antigen is intracellular and whole antibodies are used, internalizing antibodies may be prefeπed Lipofectin or liposomes can be used to deliver the antibody or a fragment of the Fab region that binds to the target antigen mto cells Where fragments of the antibody are used, the smallest inhibitory fragment that binds to the target antigen is prefeπed For example, peptides havmg an amino acid sequence coπesponding to the Fv region of the antibody can be used Alternatively, smgle chain neutralizing antibodies that bind to intracellular target antigens can also be administered Such single cham antibodies can be administered, for example, by expressmg nucleotide sequences encoding single-chain antibodies within the target cell population (see e g , Marasco et al (1993) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 90 7889-7893) The identified compounds that inhibit target gene expression, synthesis and/or activity can be administered to a patient at therapeutically effective doses to prevent, treat or ameliorate 14094 disorders A therapeutically effective dose refers to that amount of the compound sufficient to result in amelioration of symptoms of the disorders Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such compounds can be determmed by standard pharmaceutical procedures as descnbed above The data obtained from the cell culture assays and animal studies can be used m formulating a range of dosage for use in humans The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED 50 with little or no toxicity The dosage can vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized For any compound used in the method of the invention, the therapeutically effective dose can be estimated initially from cell culture assays A dose can be formulated in animal models to achieve a circulating plasma concentration range that mcludes the IC50 (1 e , the concentration of the test compound that achieves a half-maximal inhibition of symptoms) as determined in cell culture Such information can be used to more accurately determine useful doses in humans Levels in plasma can be measured, for example, by high performance liquid chromatography Another example of determination of effective dose for an individual is the ability to directly assay levels of "free" and "bound" compound m the serum of the test subject Such assays may utilize antibody mimics and/or "biosensors" that have been created through molecular tmpnnting techniques The compound which is able to modulate 14094 activity is used as a template, or "impnntmg molecule", to spatially organize polymenzable monomers pnor to their polymenzation with catalytic reagents The subsequent removal of the impnnted molecule leaves a polymer matnx which contains a repeated "negative image" of the compound and is able to selectively rebind the molecule under biological assay conditions A detailed review of this technique can be seen in Ansell, R J er a/ (1996) Current Opinion in Biotechnology 7:89-94 and m Shea K J (1994) Trends in Polymer Science 2:166-173 Such "impnnted" affinity matnxes are amenable to hgand-bindmg assays, whereby the immobilized monoclonal antibody component is replaced by an appropπately impnnted matnx An example of the use of such matnxes m this way can be seen in Vlatakis, G et al (1993) Nature 361:645-647 Through the use of isotope-labeling, the "free" concentration of compound which modulates the expression or activity of 14094 can be readily monitored and used in calculations of IC50 Such "impnnted" affinity matnxes can also be designed to mclude fluorescent groups whose photon-emitting properties measurably change upon local and selective bindmg of target compound These changes can be readily assayed in real time usmg appropnate fiberoptic devices, in turn allowing the dose m a test subject to be quickly optimized based on its individual IC50 An rudimentary example of such a "biosensor" is discussed m Knz, D etal (1995) Analytical Chemistry 67:2142-2144 Another aspect of the invention pertains to methods of modulating 14094 expression or activity for therapeutic puφoses Accordingly, in an exemplary embodiment, the modulatory method of the mvention involves contacting a cell with a 14094 or agent that modulates one or more of the activities of 14094 protein activity associated with the cell An agent mat modulates 14094 protein activity can be an agent as descnbed herein, such as a nucleic acid or a protem, a naturally-occurnng target molecule of a 14094 protein (e g , a 14094 substrate or receptor), a 14094 antibody, a 14094 agonist or antagonist, a peptidomimetic of a 14094 agonist or antagonist, or other small molecule In one embodiment, the agent stimulates one or 14094 activities Examples of such stimulatory agents include active 14094 protein and a nucleic acid molecule encoding 14094 In another embodiment, the agent inhibits one or more 14094 activities Examples of such inhibitory agents include antisense 14094 nucleic acid molecules, anti-14094 antibodies, and 14094 inhibitors These modulatory methods can be performed in vitro (e g , by cultuπng the cell with the agent) or, alternatively, in vivo (e g , by administenng the agent to a subject) As such, the present invention provides methods of treating an individual afflicted with a disease or disorder characteπzed by abenant or unwanted expression or activity of a 14094 protein or nucleic acid molecule In one embodiment, the method involves administenng an agent (e g , an agent identified by a screening assay descnbed herein), or combination of agents that modulates (e g , up regulates or down regulates) 14094 expression or activity In another embodiment, the method involves administenng a 14094 protem or nucleic acid molecule as therapy to compensate for reduced, abeπant. or unwanted 14094 expression or activity Stimulation of 14094 activity is desirable in situations in which 14094 is abnormally downregulated and/or m which increased 14094 activity is likely to have a beneficial effect For example, stimulation of 14094 activity is desirable m situations in which a 14094 is downregulated and/or in which increased 14094 activity is likely to have a beneficial effect Likewise, inhibition of 14094 activity is desirable m situations in which 14094 is abnormally upregulated and/or m which decreased 14094 activity is likely to have a beneficial effect Pharmacogenomics The 14094 molecules of the present invention, as well as agents, or modulators which have a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on 14094 activity (e g , 14094 gene expression) as identified by a screening assay descnbed herein can be admmistered to individuals to treat (prophylactically or therapeutically) 14094 associated disorders (e g , cell proliferative or differentiative disorders, coagulative disorders, organogenesis disorders, complement activation disorders, hormone production disorders) associated with abeπant or unwanted 14094 activity In conjunction with such treatment, pharmacogenomics (i e , the study of the relationship between an individual's genotype and that individual's response to a foreign compound or drug) may be considered Differences in metabolism of therapeutics can lead to severe toxicity or therapeutic failure by altenng the relation between dose and blood concentration of the pharmacologically actι\ e drug Thus, a physician or clinician may consider applying knowledge obtained in relevant pharmacogenomics studies in determining whether to administer a 14094 molecule or 14094 modulator as well as tailoring the dosage and/or therapeutic regimen of treatment with a 14094 molecule or 14094 modulator Pharmacogenomics deals with clinically significant hereditary vanations the response to drugs due to altered drug disposition and abnormal action m affected persons See, for example, Eichelbau , M etal (1996) Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol 23 983-985 and Linder, M W et al (1997) Clin Chem 43 254-266 In general, two types of pharmacogenetic conditions can be differentiated. Genetic conditions transmitted as a single factor altering the way drugs act on the body (altered drug action) or genetic conditions transmitted as single factors altering the way the body acts on drugs (altered drug metabolism). These pharmacogenetic conditions can occur either as rare genetic defects or as naturally-occurring polymoφhisms. For example, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD) is a common inherited enzymopathy in which the main clinical complication is haemolysis after ingestion of oxidant drugs (anti-malarials, sulfonamides, analgesics, nitrofurans) and consumption of fava beans. One phaπnacogenomics approach to identifying genes that predict drug response, known as "a genome-wide association", relies primarily on a high-resolution map of the human genome consisting of already known gene-related markers (e.g., a "bi-allelic" gene marker map which consists of 60,000-100,000 polymoφhic or variable sites on the human genome, each of which has two variants.) Such a high-resolution genetic map can be compared to a map of the genome of each of a statistically significant number of patients taking part in a Phase 11/111 drug trial to identify markers associated with a particular observed drug response or side effect. Alternatively, such a high resolution map can be generated from a combination of some ten-million known single nucleotide polymoφhisms (SNPs) in the human genome. As used herein, a "SNP" is a common alteration that occurs in a single nucleotide base in a stretch of DNA. For example, a SNP may occur once per every 1000 bases of DNA. A SNP may be involved in a disease process, however, the vast majority may not be disease-associated. Given a genetic map based on the occuπence of such SNPs, individuals can be grouped into genetic categories depending on a particular pattern of SNPs in their individual genome. In such a manner, treatment regimens can be tailored to groups of genetically similar individuals, taking into account traits that may be common among such genetically similar individuals. Alternatively, a method termed the "candidate gene approach," can be utilized to identify genes that predict drug response. According to this method, if a gene that encodes a drug's target is known (e.g., a 14094 protein of the present invention), all common variants of that gene can be fairly easily identified in the population and it can be determined if having one version of the gene versus another is associated with a particular drug response. Alternatively, a method termed the "gene expression profiling," can be utilized to identify genes that predict drug response. For example, the gene expression of an animal dosed with a drug (e.g., a 14094 molecule or 14094 modulator of the present invention) can give an indication whether gene pathways related to toxicity have been turned on. Information generated from more than one of the above pharmacogenomics approaches can be used to determine appropriate dosage and treatment regimens for prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of an individual. This knowledge, when applied to dosing or drug selection, can avoid adverse reactions or therapeutic failure and thus enhance therapeutic or prophylactic efficiency when treating a subject with a 14094 molecule or 14094 modulator, such as a modulator identified by one of the exemplary screening assays described herein. The present invention further provides methods for identifying new agents, or combinations, that are based on identifying agents that modulate the activity of one or more of the gene products encoded by one or more of the 14094 genes of the present invention, wherein these products may be associated with resistance of the cells to a therapeutic agent. Specifically, the activity of the proteins encoded by the 14094 genes of the present invention can be used as a basis for identifying agents for overcoming agent resistance. By blocking the activity of one or more of the resistance proteins, target cells, e.g., human cells, will become sensitive to treatment with an agent that the unmodified target cells were resistant to. Monitoring the influence of agents (e.g., drugs) on the expression or activity of a 14094 protein can be applied in clinical trials. For example, the effectiveness of an agent determined by a screening assay as described herein to increase 14094 gene expression, protein levels, or upregulate 14094 activity, can be monitored in clinical trials of subjects exhibiting decreased 14094 gene expression, protein levels, or downregulated 14094 activity. Alternatively, the effectiveness of an agent determined by a screening assay to decrease 14094 gene expression, protein levels, or dowmregulate 14094 activity, can be monitored in clinical trials of subjects exhibiting increased 14094 gene expression, protein levels, or upregulated 14094 activity. In such clinical trials, the expression or activity of a 14094 gene, and preferably, other genes that have been implicated in, for example, a 14094- associated disorder can be used as a "read out" or markers of the phenotype of a particular cell. 14094 Informatics The sequence ofa 14094 molecule is provided in a variety of media to facilitate use thereof.
