CA 2301295

Conjugated compositions comprising a fragment of HIV-1 Vpr or a non-HIV-1 Vpr protein conjugated to a therapeutic compound and methods of using the same to deliver therapeutic compounds to a cell's nucleus or for the preparation of drug delivery particles are disclosed. Functional fragments of HIV-1 Vpr and functional non-HIV-1 Vpr proteins, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same are disclosed. Methods of inhibiting cell proliferation and methods of treating an individual who has a hyperproliferative disease are disclosed. Methods of identifying compounds that inhibit Vpr protein binding to the p6 domain of p55 or to p6 protein and kits for performing such methods are disclosed.

Cette invention se rapporte, d'une part, à des compositions conjuguées renfermant un fragment de la protéine Vpr VIH-1 (protéine virale r du VIH de type 1 (VIH-1)), ou une protéine différente de la Vpr VIH-1, conjugué à un composé thérapeutique; et d'autre part, à des procédés d'utilisation de ces fragments et protéines pour administrer des composés thérapeutiques à un noyau de cellule ou pour préparer des particules pour administration de médicaments. L'invention concerne également des fragments fonctionnels de la protéine Vpr VIH-1, des protéines fonctionnelles différentes de la Vpr HIV-1, ainsi que des compositions renfermant ces fragments et protéines; des procédés d'inhibition de la prolifération cellulaire et des procédés permettant de traiter un individu souffrant d'une maladie hyperproliférative; enfin, des procédés d'identification de composés inhibant la fixation de la protéine Vpr au domaine p6 de p55 ou bien à la protéine p6, ainsi qu'à des kits permettant de mettre en oeuvre ces procédés.
