  • THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF PROSTAGLANDIN D SYNTHASE AND UTILIZATION THEREOF
    Publication number: 20090263784
    Abstract: A method of designing an anti-allergic agent, sleep controlling agent, anti-obesity agent and remedy for brain injury acting via the inhibition of biosynthesis of prostaglandin D2. Crystal of a complex of human origin hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase, glutathione, and a substrate analog or an inhibitor, etc are prepared and the three-dimensional structural coordinate of each atom in the complex is determined by X-ray crystal analysis.
    Type: Application
    Filed: January 30, 2009
    Publication date: October 22, 2009
    Inventors: Yoshihiro URADE, Osamu Hayaishi, Tsuyoshi Inoue, Yasushi Kai, Yousuke Okano, Shigehiro Kinugasa, Hiroyoshi Matsumura, Daisuke Irikura, Masaki Yamamoto, Takashi Kumasaka, Masashi Miyano
  • Three-dimensional structure of prostaglandin D synthase and utilization thereof
    Patent number: 7547532
    Abstract: A method of designing an anti-allergic agent, sleep controlling agent, anti-obestic agent and remedy for brain injury acting via the inhibition of biosynthesis of prostaglandin D2. Crystal of a complex of human origin hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase, glutathione, and a substrate analog or an inhibitor, etc are prepared and the three-dimensional structural coordinate of each atom in the complex is determined by X-ray crystal analysis.
    Type: Grant
