    Abstract: A high throughput RNAi-based assay for identify factors involved in maintaining epigenetic silencing is disclosed. The assay measures reactivation of a silent reporter gene in cells, resulting from RNAi-based knockdown of target mRNA. RNAi-based screening of these silent reporter cells has identified known enzymes that place or remove epigenetic marks on histones, as well as non-enzymatic proteins that function in silencing or in transfer of marks during S-phase. In addition, the screen has been used to identify a number of novel gene products involved in epigenetic silencing, which are also disclosed.

    Abstract: Methods for designing a laser-accelerated ion beam are disclosed. The methods include modeling a system including a heavy ion layer, an electric field, and high energy light positive ions having a maximum light positive ion energy, correlating physical parameters of the heavy ion layer, the electric field, and the maximum light positive ion energy using the model, and varying the parameters of the heavy ion layer to optimize the energy distribution of the high energy light positive ions. One method includes analyzing the acceleration of light positive ions, for example protons, through interaction of a high-power laser pulse with a double-layer target using two-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations and a one-dimensional analytical model. The maximum energy acquired by the accelerated light positive ions, e.g., protons, in this model depends on the physical characteristics of the heavy-ion layer-the electron-ion mass ratio and effective charge state of the ions. The hydrodynamic equations for both electron and heavy ion species solved and the test-particle approximation for the protons is applied. It was found that the heavy ion motion modifies the longitudinal electric field distribution, thus changing the acceleration conditions for the light positive ions.

    Abstract: Methods for obtaining highly target-specific inhibitory compounds are disclosed. These inhibitory compounds provide for the preservation of a native, non-activated form of an autoinhibited molecule, such as a protein or enzyme. The inhibitory compounds are further described as essentially free of inhibitory activity for non-native forms of an autoinhibited molecule of interest. By way of example, such autoinhibited molecules of interest include proteins and enzymes, such as the p-21-activated kinases (Paks) and the Rho-activated proteins. The inhibitory compounds act by binding to a distinct, autoinhibitory domain of an autoinhibited molecule (protein), and thereby stabilize an autoinhibited conformation of the molecule (protein). Preparations, including pharmaceutical preparations, compromising a composition enriched for the inhibitory compounds are also disclosed.
