Abstract:
The present invention relates an efficiently replicating a modified hepatitis virus (HCV) mutant, and a modified HCV further comprising reporter gene, a method of preparing HCV vaccine using the same, and a method of screening anti-HCV material using the same. The present invention is to overcome the defect that the conventional HCV cell culture systems are unable to produce a sufficient amount of virus, thereby causing it difficult to efficiently induce or measure HCV infection. Because the present invention can allow production of HCV in a large amount an efficiently observing HCV infection in a living cell, it can make it possible to achieve many studies that were previously highly challenging, including studies on infection routes, and assembly and release of HCV. In addition, the present invention contributes to studies for searching anti-HCV agents being inhibiting all stages of the HCV life cycle, not being limited to HCV replication.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of regulating mammalian target-of-rapamycin (mTOR) by regulating a phospholipase D (PLD) activity that generates a complex with mTOR. Further, the present invention also relates to a method of screening inhibitors of mTOR, and a method and a composition for treating mTOR-related metabolic diseases by inhibiting mTOR.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for identifying the plurality of aptamers that bind to different sites of a target molecule and methods for using the same, for example, in sandwich assays. In particular, the plurality of aptamers binding to different sites of the target molecules is identified from a library of aptamers identified from the same SELEX process.
Abstract:
Improved G-rich oligonucleotide (GRO) aptamers specific to nucleolin, a method of preparing the aptamers, and a use of the aptamers for diagnosing and/or treating a nucleolin-associated disease, are provided.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and detection kit for determining a presence of one or more proteins using aptamer-mediated pull-down assays. Specifically, a reproducible a protein precipitation (Co-AP/AP) method is provided to identify physiologically relevant protein-protein interactions by using target protein-specific aptamers, and to confirm its superior performance over antibody based protein precipitation (Co-IP/IP) methods in terms of its protein pull-down performance.

Abstract:
A novel use of GRP 94 in treatment of virus infection is provided. More specifically, a method of inhibiting virus infection by inhibiting expression of GRP 94 and/or inactivating activity of GRP 94, and a method of developing drugs for preventing and/or treating virus infection and/or diseases caused by virus infection by using GRP 94 as a target are provided.
