Patents by Inventor Kimberly Mauck

Kimberly Mauck has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Zinc finger proteins
    Patent number: 7297515
    Abstract: Novel zinc finger proteins and nucleic acids encoding the proteins are provided. The zinc finger proteins interact with ZNF202, a zinc finger protein that regulates the expression of a variety of genes involved in lipid metabolism and transportation. Modulation of the novel zinc finger proteins and their interactions with ZNF202 can be useful in the treatment of coronary heart diseases, dyslipidemia, dyscholesterolemia and obesity.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 28, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 20, 2007
    Assignee: Myriad Genetics, Inc.
    Inventors: Philippe Szankasi, Kimberly Mauck, Daniel Albert Wettstein
  • COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATING INFLAMMATORY DISORDERS
    Publication number: 20070254300
    Abstract: Protein complexes are provided comprising at least one interacting pair of proteins. The protein complexes are useful in screening assays for identifying compounds effective in modulating the protein complexes, and in treating and/or preventing diseases and disorders associated with the protein complexes and/or their constituent interacting members.

  • Nucleic acid encoding a phosphatase 2C that interacts with Fe 65
    Patent number: 6653102
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the discovery of protein—protein interactions that are involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Thus, the present invention is directed to complexes of these proteins and/or their fragments, antibodies to the complexes, diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders (including diagnosis of a predisposition to and diagnosis of the existence of the disorder), drug screening for agents which modulate the interaction of proteins described herein, and identification of additional proteins in the pathway common to the proteins described herein.

  • Novel PN9826 nucleic acids and use thereof
    Publication number: 20030036163
    Abstract: Novel PN9826 protein and nucleic acids encoding PN9826 are provided. PN9826-containing protein complexes formed by PN9826 and a PN9826-interacting protein (e.g., LTBP1) are also provided. LTBP1 and PN9826 may be involved in common biological processes such as angiogenesis, metastasis, and cell growth and adhesion. Thus, the protein complexes as well as PN9826 can be used in screening assays to select modulators of PN9826 and the protein complexes formed by PN9826 and LTBP1. The identified modulators can be useful in modulating the functions and activities of PN9826 and protein complexes containing PN9826.
