  • Patent number: 7732577
    Abstract: Isolated nucleic acid sequences encoding mammalian MDM2 binding protein and polypeptide sequences for the mammalian MDM2 binding protein are provided. Also provided are vectors containing these nucleic acid sequences, host cells which express these proteins and antibodies targeted to these proteins. In addition, methods and compositions for modulating the G1 phase of the cell cycle via altering expression and/or activity of a mammalian MDM2 binding protein are provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 23, 2007
    Date of Patent: June 8, 2010
    Assignee: Philadelphia Health and Education Corporation
    Inventors: Mark Thomas Boyd, Dale Stewart Haines, Nikolina Vlatkovic

  • Publication number: 20080085279
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the inhibitors of MDM2 Binding Protein (MTBP) activity that may be used as medicaments. Such medicaments may be used to prevent or treat cancers. A preferred inhibitor is an siRNA molecule that is specific for silencing MTBP expression. The invention further relates to screening methods (e.g. for identifying MTBP inhibitors that may be used to treat cancers).
