Patents by Inventor Taly Spivak-Kroizman

Taly Spivak-Kroizman has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7135320
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a newly identified adaptor protein FRS2 and related products and methods. FRS2 links protein kinases to activating partners in cells. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding portions of FRS2, nucleic acid vectors containing FRS2 related nucleic acid molecules, recombinant cells containing such nucleic acid vectors, polypeptides purified from such recombinant cells, antibodies to such polypeptides, and methods of identifying compounds that enhance or block FRS2 interactions with natural binding partners. Also disclosed are methods for diagnosing abnormal conditions in an organism with FRS2 related molecules or compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 8, 2000
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2006
    Assignee: New York University
    Inventors: Haruhiko Kouhara, Taly Spivak-Kroizman, Irit Lax, Joseph Schlessinger
  • Patent number: 6596854
    Abstract: The invention provides a method of purifying human eIF-4E protein and amino acid sequence variants thereof having altered binding affinity for capped RNA. Using the described purification, amino acid sequence variants can readily be expressed, purified and tested. Both lowered and enhanced binding affinity variants are useful for modifying protein expression levels in vivo and in vitro.
    Type: Grant
