  • Patent number: 9464109
    Abstract: A method for the introduction of a labeling structure such as fluorescent molecules or a Raman tag to a compound is described. Imidazole functionalized resins or polymers are used to selectively immobilize phosphocompounds without protecting the carboxylic groups is described. Relying on the pKa difference between amines and hydrazides and carrying out the reaction in a slightly acidic buffer, all of the amines are protected by protonation while the hydrazides react with the phosphate imidazolide to form a phosphoramidate bond.

  • Patent number: 9464112
    Abstract: Provided are small peptide fragments derived from the NF-?B p65 subunit and a pharmaceutical or cosmetic composition comprising the same. The peptides have a NF-?B inhibitory activity, through controlling the transcription-activation of NF-?B. The peptides inhibit the expressions of pro-inflammatory mediators, which are induced by NF-?B, and also inhibit the transmigration of leukocytes, thereby exhibiting an anti-inflammatory activity. Especially, the peptides have excellent inhibitory activities against dermatitis and skin aging. And also, the peptides inhibit base membrane invasion of cancer cells, thereby exhibiting an inhibitory activity against the growth and/or metastasis of cancer cells.
