Abstract: Novel markers for ovarian cancer that are both sensitive and accurate. These markers are overexpressed and/or differentially expressed in ovarian cancer specifically, as opposed to normal ovarian tissue. The measurement of these markers, alone or in combination, in patient samples provides information that the diagnostician can correlate with a probable diagnosis, in ovarian cancer. The markers of the present invention, alone or in combination, show a high degree of differential detection between ovarian cancer and non-cancerous states.

Abstract: Novel splice variant nucleic acid sequences. The novel splice variants and their nucleic acid sequences according to the present invention may optionally be used for diagnosis of a variant-detectable disease as described herein.

Abstract: We describe a method for mining microbial genomes to discover antimicrobial genes and proteins having broad spectrum of activity. Also described are antimicrobial genes and their expression products from various microbial genomes that were found using this method. The products of such genes can be used as antimicrobial agents or as tools for molecular biology.
