  • Publication number: 20140365182
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide systems and methods enable a user to receive feedback regarding a computer-implemented design of an architectural structure as the user is designing or otherwise modifying the computer-implemented design using a computer-aided design (CAD) software tool. The feedback (hereafter also referred to as “design feedback”) may provide the user with useful analysis information regarding the architectural structure's predicted characteristics (e.g., operational performance, resource consumption, cost, etc.) based on the current state of the computer-implemented design. As the user performs one or more actions on the computer-implemented design model (e.g., through the CAD software tool), particularly with respect to the geometry or texture of the computer-implemented design model, systems and methods can provide the impact of those actions, possibly at or near the time the actions were executed (e.g., at or near real-time).

  • Patent number: 8841257
    Abstract: Compounds which inhibit the activity of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) are provided together with methods of making and using the same. The compounds are designed to bind to the SH2 domain of STAT3, preventing STAT3 from binding to receptors for interleukin-6 family cytokines, growth factors such as the platelet-derived growth factor, the epidermal growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, and other signaling molecules such as leptin. Blocking these interactions prevents STAT3 from being phosphorylated on Tyr705, which is required for the dimerization of STAT3, translocation to the nucleus, binding to STAT3 response elements on promotors, and transcription of genes. In addition to these activities, binding to the SH2 domain of STAT3 breaks up pre-formed dimmers, thereby preventing the transcriptional activity of the inhibitor.

  • Publication number: 20040009571
    Abstract: The invention identifies an interface domain for interaction between two or more dimers of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT) proteins formed between amino acid residues Gln8 (Q8), Ile12 (I12), and Leu15 (L15) of &agr; helices 1 and 2, Met28 (M28) and Glu29 (E29) of &agr; helix 3 of a first STAT protein partner of the dimer, and Leu77 (L77) and Leu78 (L78) in &agr; helix 7 of a second STAT protein partner of the dimer. The interface domain is useful for designing and identifying compounds capable of enhancing or inhibiting binding between STAT protein dimers and/or DNA binding sites, and thus useful for identifying compounds able to modulate STAT protein dimer-dimer induction of gene expression.
