Abstract
The present invention provides a novel human anion channel (NANCH) and polynucleotides which identify and encode NANCH. The invention also provides genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences encoding NANCH and a method for producing NANCH. The invention also provides for agonists, antibodies, or antagonists specifically binding NANCH, and their use, in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with expression of NANCH. Additionally, the invention provides for the use of antisense molecules to polynucleotides encoding NANCH for the treatment of diseases associated with the expression of NANCH. The invention also provides diagnostic assays which utilize the polynucleotide, or fragments or the complement thereof, and antibodies specifically binding NANCH.
