摘要:
The present invention relates to the significant functional role of several C. elegans genes and of their corresponding gene products in cell division and proliferation processes that could be identified by means of RNA-medicated interference (RNAi) and to the identification and isolation of functional orthologues of said genes including all biologically-active derivatives thereof. The invention further relates to the use of said gene products (including said orthologues) in the development or isolation of anti-proliferative agents, particularly their use in appropriate screening assays, and their use for diagnosis and treatment of proliferative diseases.
摘要:
The present invention relates to several C. elegans genes and gene products identified by means of RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) as required for the viability, growth or reproduction of nematodes and to functional orthologues of said genes and gene products found in other nematode species, including all biologically-active derivatives thereof. The invention also comprises the use of said genes and gene products in the development of anti-nematode or other pesticidal agents and in methods for diagnosis and treatment of diseases associated with the infection or presence of nematodes.

The present invention relates to the significant functional role of several C. elegans genes and of their corresponding gene products in chromatin separation during cell division that could be identified by means of RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) and to the identification and isolation of functional orthologs of said genes including all biologically functional derivatives thereof. The invention further relates to the use of said genes and gene products (including said orthologs) in the development or isolation of anti-proliferative agents, particularly their use in appropriate screening assays, and their use for diagnosis and treatment of proliferative and other diseases. In particular, the invention relates to the use of small interfering RNAs derived from said genes for the treatment of proliferative diseases.
