Patents by Inventor Benjamin L. Margolis

Benjamin L. Margolis 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: 6391584
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel method, based on direct expression cloning, for identifying target proteins capable of binding to and/or serving as substrates for receptor or cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases. The present invention also relates to novel proteins identified using this method, and to methods for identifying compounds that disrupt the interaction of such novel proteins with the receptor or cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 29, 1999
    Date of Patent: May 21, 2002
    Assignee: New York University Medical Center
    Inventors: Joseph Schlessinger, Edward Y. Skolnik, Benjamin L. Margolis

  • Patent number: 5858686
    Abstract: A novel expression cloning method is provided for the detection, identification and purification of target proteins capable of binding at least to a tryosine-phosphorylated domain of a eukaryotic tyrosine kinase using novel peptide probes comprising an amino acid sequence substantially corresponding to a portion of a tyrosine-phosphorylated domain of a tyrosine kinase. The probe has at least one phosphorlated tyrosine residue and may be detectably labeled. Also disclosed is a method for preparing the probe, a method for mapping to a chormosome a gene encoding a protein capable of binding to tyrosine-phosphorylated domains of tyrosine kinases, and a method for purifiying such a protein with the probe. Non-limiting examples of novel proteins discovered using the above cloning method include GRB-1, GRB-2, GRB-3, GRB-4 and GRB-7, as well as nucleic acid encoding these proteins, and methods for detecting these proteins are also provided.
