Yin Won Lee 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).

  • Recombinant vectors carrying zearalenone-inducible promoter and methods for producing proteins and detecting zearalenone using them
    Patent number: 8648184
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a zearalenone-inducible promoter originated from Gibberella zeae, recombinant vectors comprising the promoters, methods of producing proteins and detecting plants contaminated with zearalenone. The promoter of the present invention can be used for studying essential genes in fungus, characterizing the mechanism of self/nonself recognition in G. zeae, engineering of plant systems to generate plants that can recognize a G. zeae attack and detecting ZEA contamination as a biosensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 13, 2010
    Date of Patent: February 11, 2014
    Assignee: SNU R&DB Foundation
    Inventors: Yin Won Lee, Jung Kwan Lee, Ae Ran Park, Seung Hoon Lee, Ho Kyung Son

  • Apicidin-derivatives, their synthetic methods and anti-tumor compositions containing them
    Patent number: 6831061
    Abstract: A substituted apicidin derivative, a method of synthesis therefore, and an anti-tumor composition comprising the same are disclosed. The substituent of the derivative is preferably semicarbazone, thiosemicarbazone, hydrazone, tert-butylhydrazone, phenylhydrazone, 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone, 4-methoxyphenylhydrazone, 3-methoxyphenylhydrazone, 4-nitrophenylhydrazone, benzylhydrazone, methanesulfonylhydrazone, benzenesulfonylhydrazone, 4-methylbenzenesulfonylhydrazone, benzoylhydrazone, 4-nitrobenzoylhydrazone, carbohydrazone, benzyloxime or acetoxime. The compound has strong inhibition effect against histone deacetylase and detransforming activities and specifically inhibit growth of cancer cells. Therefore, it is useful in preparation of an anti-tumor composition.
