The sequences of 5' ESTs and consensus contigated 5&#x2032;ESTs derived from mRNAs encoding secreted proteins are disclosed. The 5&#x2032; ESTs and consensus contigated 5&#x2032;ESTs may be to obtain cDNAs and genomic DNAs corresponding to the 5&#x2032; ESTs and consensus contigated 5&#x2032;ESTs. The 5&#x2032; ESTs and consensus contigated 5&#x2032;ESTs may also be used in diagnostic, forensic, gene therapy, and chromosome mapping procedures. Upstream regulatory sequences may also be obtained using the 5&#x2032; ESTs and consensus contigated 5&#x2032;ESTs. The 5&#x2032; ESTs and consensus contigated 5&#x2032;ESTs may also be used to design expression vectors and secretion vectors.

ESTs and encoded human proteins

The sequences of 5' ESTs derived from mRNAs encoding secreted proteins are disclosed. The 5&#x2032; ESTs may be to obtain cDNAs and genomic DNAs corresponding to the 5&#x2032; ESTs. The 5&#x2032; ESTs may also be used in diagnostic, forensic, gene therapy, and chromosome mapping procedures. Upstream regulatory sequences may also be obtained using the 5&#x2032; ESTs. The 5&#x2032; ESTs may also be used to design expression vectors and secretion vectors.

Expressed sequence tags and encoded human proteins

The present invention relates to the field of metabolic research. Metabolic disorders, such as obesity, are a public health problem that is serious and widespread. GSSP4 polypeptides have been identified that are believed to be beneficial in the treatment of metabolic disorders. These compounds should be effective for reducing cholesterol levels, body mass, body fat, and for treating metabolic-related diseases and disorders. The metabolic-related diseases or disorders include, but are not limited to, obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerosis, diabetes, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance and hypertension.

GSSP4 polynucleotides and polypeptides and uses thereof

The sequences of 5&prime; ESTs derived from mRNAs encoding secreted proteins are disclosed. The 5&prime; ESTs may be to obtain cDNAs and genomic DNAs corresponding to the 5&prime; ESTs. The 5&prime; ESTs may also be used in diagnostic, forensic, gene therapy, and chromosome mapping procedures. Upstream regulatory sequences may also be obtained using the 5&prime; ESTs. The 5&prime; ESTs may also be used to design expression vectors and secretion vectors.
