| Summary: | The invention relates to newly identified polynucleotides having homology to various protease families. The invention also relates to protease polypeptides. The invention further relates to methods using the protease polypeptides and polynucleotides as a target for diagnosis and treatment in protease-mediated and related disorders. The invention further relates to drug-screening methods using the protease polypeptides and polynucleotides to identify agonists and antagonists for diagnosis and treatment. The invention further encompasses agonists and antagonists based on the protease polypeptides and polynucleotides. The invention further relates to procedures for producing the protease polypeptides and polynucleotides.
