The invention provides, for example, a gene comprising a polynucleotide coding for the polypeptide having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:3. The gene shows amplification in the 9p23-24 region, has a PX domain and PHD finger motifs, plays an important role in cell growth and differentiation, and in tumorigenesis, and is useful in elucidating the pathology of various diseases caused by a protein involved in cell differentiation in malignant tumor or the like, and in the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.
例如,本发明提供了一种基因,该基因包含编码具有 SEQ ID NO:3 所示氨基酸序列的多肽的多核苷酸。该基因在 9p23-24 区域出现扩增,具有 PX 结构域和 PHD 手指基序,在细胞生长和分化以及肿瘤发生中起着重要作用,有助于阐明恶性肿瘤或类似疾病中参与细胞分化的蛋白质所引起的各种疾病的病理,以及诊断和治疗这些疾病。
