  • Oligonucleotide mediated inhibition of hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus replication
    Publication number: 20040127446
    Abstract: The present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules, including antisense and enzymatic nucleic acid molecules, such as hammerhead ribozymes, DNAzymes, Inozymes, Zinzymes, Amberzymes, and G-cleaver ribozymes, which modulate the synthesis, expression and/or stability of an HCV or HBV RNA and methods for their use alone or in combination with other therapies. In addition, nucleic acid decoy molecules and aptamers that bind to HBV reverse transcriptase and/or HBV reverse transcriptase primer sequences and methods for their use alone or in combination with other therapies, are disclosed. Oligonucleotides that specifically bind the Enhancer I region of HBV DNA are further disclosed. The present invention further relates to the use of nucleic acids, such as decoy and aptamer molecules of the invention, to modulate the expression of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) genes and HBV viral replication.

  • Dynamic site browser
    Patent number: 6256028
    Abstract: A method, system and computer-readable medium for allowing easier access of web pages of a web site is provided. A requested web page is downloaded with a site browser and datafile assigned the web site. The site browser includes a version identifier and the datafile includes a timestamp. A set of left-to-right cascading menus are generated based on the downloaded site browser and datafile. The datafile is a hierarchical data structure comprising titles of the web site's web pages and links to the titled web pages. The site browser and datafile are automatically updated, if it is determined that more current versions exist.
