摘要:
Provided herein is a novel mTOR-comprising complex, mT-ORC3, which comprises mTOR and the Ets transcription factor TEL2. Specific mTORC3 binding agents and modulating agents are provided, along with kits and methods for the detection of mTORC3. Methods of modulating the activity of mTORC3 or modulating cell growth and/or survival are also provided. Further provided are methods for screening for mTORC3 binding agents and for mTORC3 modulating agents. Various methods of diagnosis and treatment are further provided.
摘要:
The field of the invention is recombinant packaging and producer cell lines for producing infectious retroviral vectors. The invention more specifically relates to the generation of pseudotyped retroviral vectors with a broad host range which can be produced at high titers in specially constructed packaging cell lines. Most specifically, the invention relates to the generation of pseudotyped retroviral vectors having vesicular stomatitis virus-G protein (VSV-G) as the membrane-associated viral envelope protein.
