  • Publication number: 20230011131
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel compound, which enables additional hydrogen bonding with amino acids at specific positions of histone acetyltransferase (HAT) p300, through structure analysis of HAT p300. The novel compound of the present invention has a remarkably excellent effect of inhibiting HAT p300 activity and thus can be very effectively used in the prevention, alleviation, or treatment of fibrosis, which is a disease associated with activation of HAT p300.

  • Publication number: 20130136742
    Abstract: Provided are transmembrane complexes that contain a protein transduction domain (PTD) from the N-terminus of IgE-dependent histamine-releasing factor (HRF) and a target substance that is to be delivered into a cell. Also provided are nucleic acid molecules encoding the transmembrane complex, and methods of delivering the target substance into a cell interior by contacting the transmembrane complex with a cell. Also provided are transfection kits containing the PTD and the target substance.
