Abstract
The invention provides isolated nucleic acids molecules, designated BAL nucleic acid molecules, which are differentially expressed in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The invention also provides antisense nucleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vectors containing BAL nucleic acid molecules, host cells into which the expression vectors have been introduced, and nonhuman transgenic animals in which a BAL gene has been introduced or disrupted. The invention still further provides isolated BAL proteins, fusion proteins, antigenic peptides and anti-BAL antibodies. Diagnostic methods using compositions of the invention are also provided.
