  • Patent number: 7332593
    Abstract: The present invention relates to variants of TRAF2 which demonstrate the ability to inhibit the TNF ? signaling pathway. In particular, applicants have isolated a splice variant of TRAF2 referred to hereinafter as “TRAF2 truncated” or “TRAF2TR” and a TRAF2 expression construct with enhanced dominant negative properties, hereafter referred to as “TRAF2 truncated-deleted” or “TRAF2TD”. Both TRAF2TR and TRAF2TD have the ability to inhibit the TNF ? signaling pathway and in TRAF2TD, this ability is greatly enhanced, greatly reducing the response to TNF ? binding.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5541109
    Abstract: This invention provides a unique SH3 binding domain core motif of the sequence RPLPXXP and cDNA clones encoding proteins which interact with the SH3 domain of c-src, as well as the amino acid sequences which mediate this binding.Another embodiment of this invention is a method of identifying SH3-binding proteins and elucidating the sequences which mediate binding. This method may be used as an assay to select compounds which bind to this site and which inhibit or enhance the binding of the SH3 domain.
