Inventors:
John Knopf - Carlisle MA, US
Jasbir Seehra - Lexington MA, US
Assignee:
Acceleron Pharma, Inc. - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
A61K 38/16
C12N 15/11
C12N 15/13
US Classification:
514 2, 514 12, 4241331, 4241781, 435 697
Abstract:
The invention relates to ALK7 soluble receptors and their uses as antagonists of the function of certain ligands such as GDF-8 (Myostatin) and GDF-11.
