Publication number: 20250121077Abstract: The invention features compounds (e.g., macrocyclic compounds) capable of modulating biological processes, for example through binding to a presenter protein (e.g., a member of the FKBP family, a member of the cyclophilin family, or PIN1) and a target protein (e.g., a eukaryotic target protein such as a mammalian target protein or a fungal target protein or a prokaryotic target protein such as a bacterial target protein). These compounds bind endogenous intracellular presenter proteins, such as the FKBPs or cyclophilins, and the resulting binary complexes selectively bind and modulate the activity of intracellular target proteins. Formation of a tripartite complex among the presenter protein, the compound, and the target protein is driven by both protein-compound and protein-protein interactions, and both are required for modulation of the targeted protein's activity.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2024Publication date: April 17, 2025Inventors: Gregory L. VERDINE, Matthew James Nichols, Dylan Talbot Stiles, Neville John Anthony, Brian Roger Bowman, Mathew Edward Sowa, Sharon Ann Townson

Patent number: 10459935Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are disclosed for generating integrated data records by correlating source data records stored at different registry source data repositories. A set of source data records is retrieved based on execution of one or more search queries against a set of registry source data repositories. A data record matching rule is selected for execution on the set of source data records. The matching rule specifies one or more input properties, each of which specifies at least one data field designator, and optionally, a matching algorithm and an input property match threshold value. The matching rule is executed on pairwise combinations of source data records to obtain a set of matched source data records. An integrated data record is generated and populated with respective data from each of one or more of the matched source data records. The integrated data record is linked to each source record.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2015Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: FISERV, INC.Inventors: Mark Edward Bowman, Vikram Gupta, Phillip Andrew Schroder, Gregory David Smelker, Amirali Sunderji, Mary Elizabeth Lawson, Timothy Allen Ruhe
