  • Publication number: 20240076365
    Abstract: This invention relates to crystals of the human Gremlin-1 protein, and the human Gremlin-1 protein in complex with an inhibitory antibody. The invention also relates to the structure of human Gremlin-1 (on its own, or in complex with the antibody) and uses of these structures in screening for agents which modulate Gremlin-1 activity. The invention further provides antibodies which bind an allosteric inhibitory site on Gremlin-1, together with pharmaceutical compositions and medical uses of such antibodies and agents identified by the screening methods.

  • Publication number: 20110171714
    Abstract: The invention relates to molecules or molecular complexes which comprise binding pockets of TAK1 or its structural homologues. The invention relates to crystallizable compositions and crystals comprising TAK1. The present invention also relates to a data storage medium encoded with the structural coordinates of molecules and molecular complexes which comprise the TAK1 or TAK1-like ATP-binding pockets. The present invention also relates to a computer comprising such data storage material. The computer may generate a three-dimensional structure or graphical three-dimensional representation of such molecules or molecular complexes. This invention also relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to solve the structure of homologous proteins or protein complexes. In addition, this invention relates to methods of using the structure coordinates to screen for and design compounds, including inhibitory compounds, that bind to TAK1 or homologues thereof.
