Title:
METHOD OF EVALUATING PHOSPHATASE INHIBITORS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2003/038118
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
OVARC1000473 (SEQ ID NO:1) and NT2RM1000377 (SEQ ID NO:3) are identified as clones inhibiting the activation of CREB by folskolin and an evaluation method using these genes and&sol or proteins encoded by these genes is provided. It is also found out that these proteins have an effect of enhancing cytotoxicity. Compounds which can be screened based on the above evaluation method are useful as CREB dephosphorylation inhibitors, cytotoxicity enhancement inhibitors and preventives and remedies for retention defect and&sol or neurodegenerative diseases.
