20130143316 | NUCLEIC ACIDS MOLECULE ENCODING THE POLYPEPTIDE FOR TREATING VIRUS-INDUCED CANCER - The present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding the polypeptides that are capable of killing tumor cells. The molecules comprise a targeting agent covalently attached to a channel-forming moiety. In a preferred embodiment, the channel-forming moiety comprises a colicin and the targeting agent is a reconstructed antibody mimetic derived from monoclone antibody against Epstein-Barr virus gp350/220. | 06-06-2013 |
20130143268 | METHOD OF PRODUCING THE POLYPEPTIDE FOR TREATING VIRUS-INDUCED CANCER - The present invention relates to methods of producing the polypeptides that are capable of killing cells. The polypeptides comprise a targeting agent covalently attached to a channel-forming moiety. In a preferred embodiment, the channel-forming moiety comprises a colicin and the targeting agent is a reconstructed antibody mimetic derived from monoclonal antibody variants against Epstein-Barr virus gp350/220. | 06-06-2013 |
20130142797 | METHOD OF TREATING VIRUS-INDUCED CANCER - The present invention relates to methods of treating virus-induced cancer with the polypeptides that are capable of killing cells. The polypeptide comprises a targeting agent covalently attached to a channel-forming moiety. In a preferred embodiment, the channel-forming moiety comprises a colicin and the targeting agent is a reconstructed antibody mimetic derived from monoclonal antibody variants against Epstein-Barr virus gp350/220 | 06-06-2013 |
20120094378 | NUCLEIC ACIDS ENCODING FOR ANTIFUNGAL BIFUNCTIONAL MOLECULES FOR TREATING FUNGAL INFECTION - The present invention is directed to nucleic acids encoding for fusion peptides comprising a fungal targeting agent and a channel-forming domain consisting essentially of amino acids 451-626 of colicin Ia, as well as vectors having the nucleic acids of the invention and host cells having the vectors. The fusion peptides of the peptides of the present invention are particularly useful for the treatment of fungal infections in a wide variety of organisms. The fusion peptides can be prepared from the nucleic acids, such as when a vector having the nucleic acid is included in a host cell. | 04-19-2012 |
20120088717 | METHOD FOR TREATING FUNGAL INFECTION WITH ANTIFUNGAL BIFUNCTIONAL MOLECULES - The present invention is directed to a method of treating a fungal infection with a fusion peptide that includes a fungal targeting agent and a channel-forming domain consisting essentially of amino acids 451-626 of colicin Ia. The fungal targeting agent can be a pheromone, such as an alpha-mating pheromone. The fusion peptides of the peptides of the present invention are particularly useful for the treatment of fungal infections in a wide variety of organisms. The fusion peptides can be prepared from the nucleic acids, such as when a vector having the nucleic acid is included in a host cell. | 04-12-2012 |
20120088270 | METHODS FOR PRODUCING ANTIFUNGAL BIFUNCTIONAL MOLECULES FOR TREATING FUNGAL INFECTION - The present invention is directed to methods of using nucleic acid molecules encoding for fusion peptides to produce the fusion peptides. The methods can include preparing or providing the nucleic acid molecules that having a fungal targeting agent (e.g., a fungal pheromone, such as alpha-mating pheromone) and a channel-forming domain consisting essentially of amino acids 451-626 of colicin Ia. The nucleic acid molecules can be transfected into host cells to produce the fusion peptide. The fusion peptides of the peptides of the present invention are particularly useful for the treatment of fungal infections in a wide variety of organisms. | 04-12-2012 |
