Patent number: 7659426Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition containing, as an active ingredient, a compound that specifically binds to KSRP or a functional fragment thereof, and a screening method for the compound. KSRP is a novel target protein for anticancer agents; a compound capable of regulating the expression and activity of such a protein and a pharmaceutical composition containing it are highly useful for proliferative diseases, particularly as anticancer agents. By providing the novel target protein, the mechanism behind the anticancer effect that has conventionally been unexplainable can be elucidated.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2004Date of Patent: February 9, 2010Assignee: Reverse Proteomics Research Institute Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akito Tanaka, Akira Yamazaki, Takeshi Tsutsumi, Tomohiro Terada, Masayuki Haramura

Publication number: 20090287016Abstract: One aspect of the present invention relates to ligands for transition metals. A second aspect of the present invention relates to the use of catalysts comprising these ligands in various transition-metal-catalyzed carbon-heteroatom and carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions. The subject methods provide improvements in many features of the transition-metal-catalyzed reactions, including the range of suitable substrates, number of catalyst turnovers, reaction conditions, and efficiency. For example, improvements have been realized in transition metal-catalyzed: aryl amination reactions; aryl amidation reactions; Suzuki couplings; and Sonogashira couplings. In certain embodiments, the invention relates to catalysts and methods of using them that operate in aqueous solvent systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2009Publication date: November 19, 2009Applicant: Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyInventors: Stephen L.
