摘要:
The present invention provides moieties that bind to the asymmetric contact interface of a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), wherein the moieties inhibit ligand induced trans autophosphorylation of the RTK. The present invention also provides methods of treating or preventing an RTK-associated disease and methods for identifying moieties that bind to an asymmetric contact interface of an RTK.
摘要:
The present invention provides moieties that bind to an Ig-like domain, e.g., D4 or D5, of a human receptor tyrosine kinase, e.g., the human Kit RTK or the PDGFR RTK, or the D7 domain of a type V receptor tyrosine kinase wherein the moieties lock the ectodomain of the receptor tyrosine kinase in an inactive state thereby antagonizing the activity of the receptor tyrosine kinase.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a newly identified adaptor protein FRS2 and related products and methods. FRS2 links protein kinases to activating partners in cells. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding portions of FRS2, nucleic acid vectors containing FRS2 related nucleic acid molecules, recombinant cells containing such nucleic acid vectors, polypeptides purified from such recombinant cells, antibodies to such polypeptides, and methods of identifying compounds that enhance or block FRS2 interactions with natural binding partners. Also disclosed are methods for diagnosing abnormal conditions in an organism with FRS2 related molecules or compounds.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of treating in a mammal certain cancers, other cell proliferative diseases, and/or angiogenesis by using a salt or complex of a sulfated saccharide. The invention also relates to the use of mutant heparin binding growth factors that bind to the growth factor receptor, but not to heparin. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions for such methods.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying mutations associated with cancer, such as melanoma. More particularly, the invention relates to methods and compositions for assessing particular mutations as markers for cancer, such as melanoma. Such methods and compositions allow medical providers to diagnose cancer, such as melanoma, based upon the presence of one or more particular mutations in a subject, as compared with an otherwise healthy control. The methods and compositions are also useful in guiding the type of therapy to be applied, and monitoring the effects of the therapy applied.
摘要:
A novel receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) protein or glycoprotein and the DNA coding therefor is expressed in a wide variety of mammalian tissues. Included in this family of proteins are human RPTPα, human RPTPβ and human RPTPγ. The RPTP protein or glycoprotein may be produced by recombinant means. Antibodies to the proteins, methods for measuring the quantity of the proteins, methods for screening compounds, such as drugs, which can bind to the proteins and inhibit or stimulate their activity, are provided.
摘要:
The present invention concerns methods for diagnosis and treatment of diseases or disorders characterized by abnormal cellular signal transduction involving a newly identified region, herein termed the “APB domain.” APB domain binding between proteins is believed to play an important role in signal transduction pathways and, thereby, influence cellular events. Thus, APB mediated activity plays a role in signal transduction pathways and agents modulating APB mediated activity can be used to treat diseases or disorders involving proteins containing APB domains.
