Abstract
The present invention provide polynucleotide sequences encoding a Bak Binding Protein (BBP) and fragments thereof that bind to Bak. The invention also provide recombinant host cells containing polynucleotides encoding BBP. The invention further provide antibodies that specifically bind to BBP. The invention further provide methods for detecting agents such as drugs that alter the binding of a BBP with a Bak protein. The invention further provide methods for detecting the presence of Bak polynucleotides and the encoding proteins in a biological sample, and further provide methods for modulating the levels of BBP in a cell. This invention additionally encompasses novel peptides, designated the 'BBP Binding Domains' and the respective nucleotides, designated 'bbpbd-1' and “bbpbd-2” which are involved in the interaction between Bak and BBP.
