  • KUZ, a novel family of metalloproteases
    Publication number: 20020127621
    Abstract: Members of a novel family of polypeptides, the KUZ family, are metalloproteases involved in neuronal partitioning and neuronal development. The invention provides KUZ poylpeptides, antibodies that bind the KUZ polypeptides, KUZ encoding nucleic acids, methods for identifying cells expressing the KUZ polypeptides, methods of identifying ligands that bind to the subject proteins and methods of blocking KUZ polypeptide/ligand interactions.

  • Method of incorporating DNA into genome of drosophila
    Patent number: 4670388
    Abstract: A method for incorporating a desired DNA sequence into the genome of a recipient multi-cellular organism comprising:(1) producing a transposable element of DNA, the element comprising a defined sequence of nucleotide base pairs wherein the defined sequence of nucleotide base pairs comprises at least two sets of target DNA sequences recognizable by transposase and a fragment of DNA, encoding for a structural gene, regulatory gene or other functional DNA, inserted between the sets of target DNA sequences;(2) incorporating the transposable element produced in (1) above into a cell of a recipient multi-cellular organism; and(3) causing the transposable element to be affirmatively inserted into the genome of the recipient multi-cellular organism.The transposable element can additionally become a part of the heritable genome of the recipient multi-cellular organism.
