摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of p11 as a drug target as well as a tool for the diagnosis, treatment and development of p11/5-HT receptor related disorders. The invention further relates to p11 knock-out animals as well as p11 transgenic animals and their use as models for the development of novel psychotherapeutic agents, and to methods of diagnosis, prophylaxis and treatment of p11/5-HT receptor related disorders.
摘要:
The present invention relates to peptides and use of said peptides in methods of inhibiting fusion between the virion envelope of Flaviviruses and membranes of the target cell, the process that delivers the viral genome into the cell cytoplasm. The invention provides also for pharmaceutical compositions comprising said peptides or peptide derivatives. The invention also relates to antibodies specific for said peptides.

Polypeptides encoded by such nucleic acid molecules, and immunologic binding partners directed to such polypeptides.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel plant organ-specific transcriptional promoter nucleic acid sequences, which regulate the expression of glutamine synthetase isoenzymes. Specifically, promoter sequences were isolated from the nuclear gene for chloroplast GS2 glutamine synthetase and from two nuclear genes for cytosolic GS3 glutamine synthetase in the pea plant, Pisum sativum. Accordingly, the present invention provides for the nucleic acid sequences of the GS2, GS3A and GS3B promoter sequences as well as functional portions thereof. The invention further provides for promoters homologous to GS2, GS3A and GS3B, or any portion thereof as well as gene fusions and transgenic plants in which genes that encode heterologous proteins are controlled by the promoter sequences of the invention.
摘要:
cDNA for the gene coding for P. falciparum glycophorin binding proteins. The cDNA shows a 150 nucleotide tandem repeat sequence, which codes for a 50 amino acid tandem repeat unit in the proteins. Vectors containing the cDNA, transformed microorganisms, and antibodies produced by immunization with the proteins are disclosed as well. The glycophorin binding protein is found to exist in two forms. One, weighing about 155,000 daltons appears to be the precursor of a second, which weighs about 130,000 daltons.
