Patent

CA 2297946

This invention provides an isolated nucleic acid molecule which encodes a wild- type or mutated SEL-10. This invention also provides a purified wild-type SEL- 10 protein or a purified mutated SEL-10 protein. This invention also provides a method for production of an antibody capable of binding to wild-type SEL-10 or mutated SEL-10 protein. This invention also provides an antibody capable of specifically binding to wild-type SEL-10 or mutated SEL-10. This invention also provides a transgenic animal comprising the isolated nucleic molecule encoding SEL-10. This invention also provides a method for identifying a compound which is capable of ameliorating Alzheimer's disease. This invention also provides a method for determining whether a compound is capable of ameliorating Alzheimer's disease. This invention further provides a method for identifying a compound which is capable of treating cancer. This invention also provides a method for determining whether a compound is capable of treating cancer. This invention also provides a method for identifying a suppressor or enhancer that affects lin-12 or sel-12 activity in the same manner as sel-10. This invention also provides a method for producing suppressors of a sel-10 allele. This invenetion also provides a method for reversing the malignant phenotype of cells. This invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition effective in ameliorating Alzheimer's disease and treating cancer and methods of using such a pharmaceutical composition.

L'invention concerne une molécule d'acide nucléique isolée codant une protéine SEL-10 de type sauvage ou mutée, une protéine SEL-10 purifiée de type sauvage ou une protéine SEL-10 mutée purifiée, un procédé permettant de produire un anticorps capable de se lier à la protéine SEL-10 de type sauvage ou SEL-10 mutée, un anticorps capable de se lier spécifiquement à SEL-10 de type sauvage ou à SEL-10 muté, un animal transgénique comprenant la molécule d'acide nucléique isolée codant SEL-10, un procédé permettant d'identifier un composé capable de produire une amélioration dans la maladie d'Alzheimer, et un procédé permettant de déterminer si un composé est capable de produire une amélioration dans la maladie d'Alzheimer. L'invention concerne également un procédé permettant d'identifier un composé présentant une action anti-cancéreuse, et un procédé permettant de déterminer si un composé présente une activité anti-cancéreuse. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé permettant d'identifier un suppresseur ou un activateur modifiant l'activité lin-12 ou sel-12 de la même manière que sel-10, un procédé permettant de produire des suppresseurs d'un allèle de sel-10, un procédé pour inverser le phénotype malin des cellules, une composition pharmaceutique capable de produire une amélioration dans la maladie d'Alzheimer et de traiter le cancer ainsi que de procédés d'utilisation d'une telle composition pharmaceutique.
