  • Brain associated inhibitor of tissue-type plasminogen activator
    Patent number: 7087574
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel BAIT protein which is a member of serpin superfamily which is expressed primarily in brain tissue. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the human and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of BAIT activity. Also provided are diagnostic methods for detecting nervous system-related disorders and therapeutic methods for treating nervous system-related disorders. Additionally, the present invention is related to methods of treating patients with BAIT polynucleotides or polypeptides, wherein said patients have had a stroke.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2003
    Date of Patent: August 8, 2006
    Assignees: Human Genome Sciences, Inc., The American Red Cross
    Inventors: Daniel A. Lawrence, Manuel Yepes, Maria Sandkvist, Timothy A. Coleman, Michael K. K. Wong
