Cell-Based Screening Methods

US Patent:
6730492, May 4, 2004
Filed:
Mar 9, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/093945
Inventors:
Michael H. Cardone - Boston MA
Michael Yaffe - Jamaica Plain MA
Assignee:
Merrimack Pharmaceuticals, Inc. - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
C12Q 148
US Classification:
435 15, 4353201, 435 6, 4352523, 435194, 435 691, 530350
Abstract:
Cell-based screening methods for determining kinase activity are provided. The methods utilize existing cellular pathways that are regulated by kinases. In one embodiment, various components of a ubiquitin-mediated degradation pathway are modified to create an assay that can be used to screen for a molecule that modulates the activity of a kinase of interest that otherwise does not regulate the degradation pathway. In another embodiment, various components of a protein translocation pathway are modified to screen for a molecule that modulates the activity of a kinase of interest that otherwise does not regulate the translocation pathway.
