Abstract
A DNA encoding a novel steroid hormone receptor-like protein was obtained from a human fetal lung cDNA library, and its structure was determined. Further, the protein encoded by the gene was isolated, identified, and designated as an ECDN protein. Furthermore, a protein encoded by a DNA lacking a part of the above gene was isolated, identified, and designated as an ECDN paucimolecular protein. It was proven that the ECDN paucimolecular protein was expressed in various cancer cells. Therefore, it is expected that it becomes possible to diagnose and treat cancers by analyzing the expression of the ECDN protein and the ECDN paucimolecular protein in a subject tissue. Furthermore, attained to develop novel pharmaceuticals can be developed by finding natural and synthetic compounds capable of binding specifically to the ECDN protein and the ECDN paucimolecular protein.
