The pesticidal proteins find use in controlling, inhibiting growth or killing Lepidopteran, Coleopteran, Dipteran, fungal, Hemipteran and nematode pest populations and for producing compositions with insecticidal activity.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2015Publication date: August 17, 2017Applicants: PIONEER HI-BRED INTERNATIONAL, INC., E.

Publication number: 20170233444Abstract: Disclosed are variant RTEF-1 polypeptides having an RTEF-1 amino acid sequence with one or more internal deletions, wherein the polypeptides reduce VEGF promoter activity. Some of the RTEF-1 polypeptides include an amino acid sequence that is at least 80% identical to the contiguous amino acids of 1) amino acids 24 to 47 of SEQ ID NO:15 and 2) each of SEQ ID NOs:16 and 17, but does not comprise the contiguous amino acids of SEQ ID NOs:8, 9, 11, or 12. Also disclosed are nucleic acids encoding the variant RTEF-1 polypeptides of the present invention. Pharmaceutical compositions that include the polypeptides and nucleic acids of the present invention are also disclosed. Methods of inducing cell contact inhibition, regulating organ size, and reducing intracellular YAP activity are also set forth, as well as methods of treating hyperproliferative diseases such as cancer using the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2017Publication date: August 17, 2017Applicants: Research Development Foundation, Oregon Health & Science UniversityInventors: J.
