  • Publication number: 20220220153
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a series of helical sulfono-?-AApeptides that mimic the binding mode of the ?-helical HD2 domain of B-Cell Lymphoma 9 (BCL9). As disclosed herein, sulfono-?-AApeptides can structurally and functionally mimic the ?-helical domain of BCL9, and selectively disrupt ?-catenin/BCL9 PPIs with even higher potency. More intriguingly, these sulfono-?-AApeptides can enter cancer cells, bind with ?-catenin and disrupt ?-catenin/BCL PPI, and exhibit excellent cellular activity, which is much more potent than the BCL9 peptide. Furthermore, enzymatic stability studies demonstrated the remarkable stability of the helical sulfono-?-AApeptides, with no degradation in the presence of pronase for 24 h, augmenting their biological potential.

  • Patent number: 11256607
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for providing a test environment, composed of one or more virtual machines, to a developer instantly in response to a checkout request from the developer. To do this, a sandbox service implements a smart, tiered approach to creating and provisioning virtual machines that compose the test environments. The approach is flexible and elastic in nature, so that the developers do not have to wait an extended period of time for a test environment, yet the costs associated with configuring the virtual machines (e.g., storage and compute costs) are minimized. For example, the sandbox service can use historical data to predict a number of checkout requests expected for a first time interval (e.g., one day), a second time interval (e.g., thirty minutes), and a third time interval (e.g., five minutes). The sandbox service can then configure virtual machines into different states based on the predicted numbers.
