Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to newly identified polynucleotides and polypeptides, and heir production and uses, as well as their variants, agonists and antagonists, and their uses. In particular, in these and in other regards, the invention relates to novel polynucleotides and polypeptides of the Polypeptide deformylase (pdf, def, fms) family, hereinafter to as "Def1". The invention provides Def1 polypeptides and DNA (RNA) encoding Def1 polypeptides and methods for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques. Also provided are methods for utilizing Def1 polypeptides to screen for antibacterial compounds.
