Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are compositions comprising newly identified protein fragments of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, polynucleotides that encode them and complements thereof, related agents, and methods of use thereof in diagnostic, drug discovery, research, and therapeutic applications.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising an isolated polynucleotide that encodes an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS) polypeptide, wherein the AARS polypeptide is up to 160 amino acids in length and comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least 95% identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:56, wherein the polynucleotide is selected from (a) a cDNA polynucleotide and (b) a modified mRNA polynucleotide, wherein the AARS polypeptide has an extracellular signaling activity, and wherein the composition is substantially endotoxin-free. 2. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the AARS polypeptide consists of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 56. 3. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the AARS polypeptide is up to 160 amino acids in length and comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:56. 4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the AARS polypeptide is fused to a heterologous polypeptide. 5. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 4 , wherein the heterologous polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of purification tags, epitope tags, targeting sequences, signal peptides, membrane translocating sequences, and pharmacokinetic (PK) property modifiers. 6. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the isolated polynucleotide comprises one or more transcriptional and/or translational control elements. 7. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the modified mRNA polynucleotide comprises at least one modified base. 8. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the isolated polynucleotide is formulated for delivery encapsulated in a lipid particle, a liposome, a vesicle, a nanosphere, or a nanoparticle. 9. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , which is suitable for intravenous administration.
