    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a target-specific non-antibody protein, and more particularly, to a method for preparing a target-specific non-antibody protein comprising the steps of: selecting non-antibody proteins having a structural complementarity with the target site of a target protein in a non-antibody protein library; calculating a binding energy of the selected non-antibody protein and the target protein; selecting a non-antibody protein having a favorable binding energy among the selected non-antibody proteins; selecting amino acid residues having a high binding energy among the interfacial amino acid residues of the selected non-antibody protein and the target protein; and substituting the selected amino acid residues with the amino acid residues having a low binding energy. In addition, the present invention relates to a target-specific non-antibody specifically binding with EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) domain 2, which is prepared by the method, and a cancer therapeutic composition comprising the same.

    摘要: The present invention provides recombinant viruses which replicate the viral genome selectively in response to the intracellular conditions of the target cell through the use a pathway-responsive promoter which substantially inhibits viral replication in the host cell based on the phenotypic or genotypic of the infected cell. In the target cell, the promoter element of the pathway-responsive promoter is inactive and thus the virus is permitted to replicate. This results in: (1) killing the cells by natural lytic nature of the virus, and/or (2) provides a therapeutic dose of a transgene product (amplified in comparison to replication incompetent vectors) to the target cell, and (3) producing a localized concentration of the virus facilitating the infection of surrounding cells to the recombinant virus. The invention further provides therapeutic and diagnostic methods of use of the vectors, pharmaceutical formulations comprising the vectors, methods of making the vectors and transformed cells comprising the vectors.

    摘要: A method for objectively predicting possibility of metastasis to a cervical lymph node in an early stage for an individual case diagnosed as an oral cavity cancer, and a diagnosis kit to be used in the prediction are provided. The method includes a step of assaying expression amounts of metastasis prediction genes in which the expression amounts are changed between a metastasis group and a non-metastasis group, with respect to a sample collected from a primary legion of the oral cavity cancer. Further, the method includes a step of predicting the possibility of the metastasis by comparing the expression amounts of the metastasis gene group with the expression amounts of the metastasis prediction genes in a metastasis group and/or a non-metastasis group. Herein, the metastasis prediction gene group includes two genes MSR1 (NM_138716.1) and RET (M31213.1).

    摘要: The present invention provides chimeric protein constructs having anti-viral activity, compositions and methods of using them, and nucleic acids encoding them. The chimeric proteins include an extracellular domain of a Tetherin protein fused to the transmembrane domain, and optionally cytoplasmic tail, of a different protein. The chimeric proteins have normal anti-viral tethering activity but are resistant to inhibition by anti-Tetherins. Ex vivo methods of gene therapy are also provided.
