    Inventor: Jill Cheng
  • Publication number: 20040126840
    Abstract: A genomic web portal provides an ontological map having nodes and edges. The computer-implemented portal system makes use of information correlating one or more probe-set identifiers with a plurality of ontological categories or terms, thereby generating probe-set identifier association data. The probe-set identifiers are associated with one or more probe sets of one or more probe arrays that may be involved in microarray experiments. The system correlates the probe-set identifier association data with graph traversal data and displays an ontological map based on this correlation.

  • Patent number: 6238902
    Abstract: This invention concerns new non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases of the hematopoietic stem cells (PTP HSC). The invention specifically concerns native murine and human PTP HSCs, their analogs in other mammals, and their functional derivatives. The invention further relates to nucleic acid encoding these proteins, vectors containing and capable of expressing such nucleic acid, and recombinant host cells transformed with such nucleic acid. Assays for identifying agonists and antagonists of the native PTP HSCs, methods for expansion of undifferentiated stem cells, and methods for the induction of stem cell differentiation are also within the scope of the invention.

  • Patent number: 5976852
    Abstract: This invention concerns novel receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase polypeptides. Specifically, this invention concerns the novel receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase .lambda. which is related to the homotypically adhering receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases .kappa. and .mu.. The invention further relates to analogs of these polypeptides in other mammals, functional derivatives thereof, antibodies which are capable of specifically binding to these polypeptides, nucleic acids encoding these polypeptides, vectors containing and capable of expressing such nucleic acid and recombinant host cells transformed with such nucleic acid. Methods for the recombinant production of these receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase polypeptides and assays for identifying agonists and antagonists of these polypeptides are also within the scope of the invention.
