Publication number: 20240140999Abstract: The present application describes stapled peptide degron chimeras, which act as protein degradation inducing moieties, either by combining a stapled peptide that binds a disease-related protein with a small molecule degron, such as a cereblon- or VHL-binding small molecule as the degron, or a polypeptide sequence degron, such as a Cop1-binding Trib peptide as the degron; or by combining a stapled peptide degron with a peptide, such as a stapled peptide, or a small molecule that binds a disease-related protein. The present application also relates to methods for the targeted degradation of endogenous proteins through the use of stapled peptide degron chimeras which can be utilized in the treatment of proliferative disorders or other conditions whereby elimination of a disease-causing or disease-related protein would have a therapeutic benefit. The present application also provides methods for making compounds of the application and intermediates thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Loren D.

Publication number: 20240086932Abstract: Exemplary embodiments pertain to a computer architecture for supporting transactions through a transaction card, as well as methods, mediums, and interfaces for use with the architecture. According to one embodiment, a request to perform a transaction for an identified amount between a user and a merchant server may be received at a provider server associated with a transaction card issued to the user. The provider server may identify a card value store and a primary value store associated with the user. The provider server may determine whether the transaction card is in an active state based on an occurrence of an automatic transfer between an employer institution and the primary value store in a most-recent predetermined time interval. If the card is active, the provider server may transmit a control signal to the merchant server, the control signal configured to authorize the transaction on behalf of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Anthony C.

Patent number: 11252097Abstract: Techniques for oscillatory complementary network property calibration of a network connection can be implemented by measuring a first network property (e.g., latency or bandwidth output) as a function of bandwidth input and performing statistical analysis to determine a correlation. If a non-zero correlation coefficient is detected, a second network property complementary to the first network property can be measured to determine a first value of the second network property. Likewise, the second network property can be measured as a function of bandwidth input to determine a second correlation which, if positive, may indicate how to determine a second value of the first network property. The first value and the second value can be utilized to determine a third value of a third network property (e.g., network latency and network capacity utilized to determine bandwidth-delay product).Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2018Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: James Morgan Selvidge, Stephen Daniel Vilke, Paul Hinks, Rudy Willis
