  • Patent number: 7972992
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods of synthesizing a molecule comprising a functional moiety which is operatively linked to an encoding oligonucleotide. The methods include providing an initiator compound comprising an initial functional moiety comprising n building blocks, wherein the initial functional moiety comprises at least one reactive group, and is operatively linked to an initial oligonucleotide; reacting the initiator compound with a building block comprising at least one complementary reactive group, under conditions suitable for reaction of the complementary reactive group to form a covalent bond; and reacting the initial oligonucleotide with an incoming oligonucleotide corresponding to the building block in the presence of an enzyme which catalyzes ligation of the initial oligonucleotide and the incoming oligonucleotide, under conditions suitable for ligation of the incoming oligonucleotide and the initial oligonucleotide to form an encoding oligonucleotide.

  • Patent number: 7175828
    Abstract: Compounds that modulate natural ? amyloid peptide aggregation are provided. The modulators of the invention comprise a peptide, preferably based on a ? amyloid peptide, that is comprised entirely of D-amino acids. Preferably, the peptide comprises 3–5 D-amino acid residues and includes at least two D-amino acid residues independently selected from the group consisting of D-leucine, D-phenylalanine and D-valine. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the peptide is a retro-inverso isomer of a ? amyloid peptide, preferably a retro-inverso isomer of A?17-21. In certain embodiments, the peptide is modified at the amino-terminus, the carboxy-terminus, or both. Preferred amino-terminal modifying groups include cyclic, heterocyclic, polycyclic and branched alkyl groups. Preferred carboxy-terminal modifying groups include an amide group, an alkyl amide group, an aryl amide group or a hydroxy group.
