Smrt Co-Repressors, Transcriptional Co-Repressors That Interact With Nuclear Hormone Receptors
The present invention relates to isolated polynucleotides encoding a family of silencing mediators of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone receptor (SMRT) isoforms, including vertebrate and invertebrate isoforms thereof. The invention also relates to polypeptide SMRT co-repressors encoded by invention SMRT polynucleotides, and to peptide portions thereof that can modulate transcriptional potential of a nuclear receptor. In addition, the invention relates to chimeric molecules and to complexes containing a SMRT co-repressor or peptide portion thereof, to antibodies that specifically bind such compositions, and to methods for identifying an agent that modulates the repressor potential of a SMRT co-repressor. The invention also provides methods for identifying an agent that modulates a function of a SMRT co-repressor; for modulating the transcriptional potential of a nuclear receptor in a cell using the compositions of the invention; and for identifying a molecule that interacts specifically with a SMRT co-repressor.
Substituted Pyrimidine Compositions And Methods Of Use
The present embodiments relate to compositions and methods of treatment of cancer. More particularly, the present embodiments relate to the combination of an ERα+ ligand with an HDACi for the treatment of cancer, methods of treating cancer and pharmaceutical compositions for treating cancer.
