    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 22, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 7, 2006
    Assignee: Sequenom, Inc.

  • Patent number: 6828321
    Abstract: A method of using 1,2,4-benzotriazine oxides, some of which are novel compounds, as radiosensitizers and selective cytotoxic agents is disclosed. These compounds are shown to specifically radiosensitize hypoxic tumor cells. Some are additionally disclosed to be useful as specific cytotoxic agents for these cells. They also show an unexpected ability to radiosensitize aerobic cells following or preceding a hypoxic incubation of the cells with the drug. This provides a basis for selective radiosensitization of tumors compared to normal cells. A novel method for preparing the 1,2,4-benzotriazine oxides is also disclosed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6635452
    Abstract: Using nonvolatile, releasable, mass-labels, the present invention provides for the synthesis and use of mass-labeled compounds to specifically interact with biomolecular targets. Following binding of the mass-labeled compounds to the target molecule, the unique mass-label can be analyzed using mass spectrometry to identify and characterize the target molecule. In one embodiment of the invention, a mass-labeled oligonucleotide probe is used to identify a specific gene sequence. A myriad of mass-labeled compounds may be produced for use in a wide variety of interactions such as oligonucleotide-oligonucleotide hybridization, polynucleotide-polynucleotide interactions, enzyme-substrate or substrate analog/intermediate interactions, polypeptide-nucleic acid interactions, protein-ligand interactions, receptor-ligand interactions, polypeptide-metal interactions, nucleic acid-metal interactions or antigen-antibody interactions.
