Patent

CA 2415751

The present invention relates to substantially pure mannin-binding lectin associated serine protease-2 (MASP-2) polypeptides and fragments thereof as well as nucleic acids encoding such polpeptides. Futhermone, the present invention realates to uses of a substantially pure polypeptide comprising amino acid sequences derived from mannan-binding lectin associated serine protease-2 (MASP2) or a functional homologue thereof for the production of a pharmaceutical composition as well as pharmaceutical compositons comprising MASP-2 and/or MASP-2 fragments. In addition the present invetion relates to inhibitors of MASP-2 and pharmaceutical compositiosn compring such inhibitors. Methods for detecting MASP-2 nucleic acid expression are included in the invention.

L'invention concerne des polypeptides sensiblement purs de sérine-protéase-2 associée à la lectine liant le mannose (MASP-2) et leurs fragments ainsi que des acides nucléiques codant pour ces polypeptides. L'invention concerne également les utilisations d'un polypeptide sensiblement pur comprenant des séquences d'acides aminés dérivés de la sérine-protéase-2 associée à la lectine liant le mannose (MASP-2) ou un homologue fonctionnel dudit polypeptide pour la production d'une composition pharmaceutique ainsi que des compostions pharmaceutiques comprenant MASP-2 et/ou des fragments de MASP-2. En outre, l'invention concerne des inhibiteurs de MASP-2 et des compositions pharmaceutiques comprenant ces inhibiteurs. L'invention concerne enfin des méthodes permettant de détecter l'expression d'acides nucléiques de MASP-2.
