The present invention relates to compounds capable of inhibiting binding of the Smac protein to Inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs). Such compounds are preferably capable of inhibiting IAP and thus may promote apoptosis or sensitize cells for apoptosis. The compounds may be used in the treatment of proliferative diseases, such as cancer.
摘要:
A protected template molecule and a new one-dimensional UniChemo Protection (UCP) organic synthetic method for preparing polyfunctional organic molecules is described. The synthetic method can be used with many kinds of chemical reactions and provides selective access to many functional groups in a template molecule. The method utilizes protection groups that are each composed of building block units that can be removed one by one affording a new protection group one unit shorter or exposing a functional group on the template molecule. The exposed functional group on the template molecule can react with a target group. Different target groups can be introduced into the template molecule by using protection groups containing different numbers of building block units.

摘要:
A fluorogenic peptide exhibiting intramolecular quenching having the general formula F-A-Q-Y1 or Y2-Q-A-F wherein Q is a fluorescence quenching substituted amino acid residue (I) wherein R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are independently selected from hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxy, amino, nitro, amido, halogen, aryl or aralkyl, with the proviso that at least one of R1 to R5 is hydroxy and at least one is nitro, wherein X is a spacing group which may be absent or selected from any combination of -CO-NH-, -CO-O-, -S-, -S-S-, -O-, -NH- or -C6H4-, and n and m are integers from 0 to 10, F is a fluorescent group having a maximum emission within the absorption band for the quenching residue Q, A is a spacing entity selected from amino acid residues and peptide residues and may include a non-peptide molecular entity, e.g. a mono- or oligosaccharie being linked to the fluorescent group F via an amide bond or ester bond, Y1 is OH, NH2, an amino acid residue, a peptide residue which is preferably attachable to a solid phase or a C-terminal protective group, Y2 is H, an amino acid residue, a peptide residue or an N-terminal protective group. Preferred peptides are those, wherein Q is 3-nitro-tyrosine, i.e. F1-A1-Tyr(NO2)-Y1 wherein F1 is a fluorescent group having a maximum emission of from 400 to 460 nm, preferably anthraniloyl, A1 is an amino acid residue or a peptide residue, preferably having 2 to 15 amino acids, and linked to the group F via a peptide bond, and Y1 is as defined above. The peptides are useful as substrates for determination of enzymatic activities in a sample, e.g. biological systems by incubating with the sample under conditions favourable to enzymatic activities, and determining and comparing the fluorescence emitted before and after the incubation. The peptides may advantageously be prepared by parallel multi-column solid phase synthesis.

摘要:
The present invention relates to barley plant or a part thereof, wherein the kernels of said barley plant have a reduced (1,3;1,4)-β-glucan content. The barley plant may carry a mutation in the Cs lF 6 gene, wherein said mutated Cs lF 6 gene encodes a mutant CslF6 polypeptide.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for preparing cereal-based beverages. The present invention provides, for example, methods for steeping and germination of cereal grain under continuous aeration. Particularly, the present invention provides methods for heating the germinated cereal grains prior to wet milling of germinated cereal grains and direct transfer of the germinated grain, without drying, to the brewery for further processing. Compared to current methods the methods of the present invention significantly reduce water consumption, energy consumption and transport need.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of detecting α-(1→6)-glucosidase activity in a sample. The method is for example useful for determining the limit dextrinase activity in a sample. The method involves use of an oligosaccharide substrate of the formula X- (glucoside) n -*(glucoside) m -Z-Y, where X is a blocking group, -* is a α-(1→6)-glucosidic linkage and Y is a detectable label. Upon cleavage of the α-(1→6)-glucosidic linkage, the detectable labelis released and thus the α-(1→6)-glucosidase activity can be determined. The invention also relates to the oligosaccharide substrate per se.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for identifying compounds capable of modulating a cellular response. The methods involve attaching living cells to solid supports comprising a library of test compounds. Test compounds modulating a cellular response, for example via a cell surface molecule may be identified by selecting solid supports comprising cells, wherein the cellular response of interest has been modulated. The cellular response may for example be changes in signal transduction pathways modulated by a cell surface molecule.
