Abstract: The present invention is directed to BAP28 polypeptides. BAP28 cDNA sequences encoding BAP28 polypeptides, to the genomic DNA sequence of the BAP28 gene as well as to regulatory regions located at the 5?- and 3?-ends of the BAP28 coding region. The invention also deals with antibodies directed specifically against such polypeptides that are useful as diagnostic reagents. The invention further encompasses biallelic markers of the BAP28 gene useful in genetic analysis. The invention concerns an association of the BAP28-related biallelic markers with prostate cancer. Therefore, the invention contemplates the diagnostic and treatment methods of prostate cancer.

Abstract: The invention provides polynucleotides including biallelic markers derived from genes involved in arachidonic acid metabolism and from genomic regions flanking those genes. Primers hybridizing to regions flanking these biallelic markers are also provided. This invention also provides polynucleotides and methods suitable for genotyping a nucleic acid containing sample for one or more biallelic markers of the invention. Further, the invention provides methods to detect a statistical correlation between a biallelic marker allele and a phenotype and/or between a biallelic marker haplotype and a phenotype.

Abstract: The invention concerns the genomic sequence of the purH gene. The invention also concerns biallelic markers of a purH gene and the association established between these markers and cancer, particularly prostate cancer. The invention provides means to determine the predisposition of individuals to cancer as well as means for the diagnosis of cancer and for the prognosis/detection of an eventual treatment response to agents acting on cancer.
