US Patent:
20090311788, Dec 17, 2009
Filed:
Oct 3, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/245431
Inventors:
Catherine PACHUK - Northborough MA, US
Chandrasekhar Satishchandran - Lansdale PA, US
International Classification:
C12N 15/67
C12N 5/10
C12N 15/63
US Classification:
435455, 435325, 4353201
Abstract:
Method and constructs for expressing heterologous sequences of interest in eukaryotic cells using multiple-compartment expression systems. These systems, which may be comprised of a single construct or multiple constructs, utilize at least two different promoters which are each active within a different subcellular compartment of the same eukaryotic cell.

Methods And Compositions For Inhibiting The Function Of Polynucleotide Sequences

View page
US Patent:
20100172976, Jul 8, 2010
Filed:
Dec 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/642367
Inventors:
Chandrasekhar Satishchandran - Cambridge MA, US
Catherine J. Pachuk - Cambridge MA, US
Assignee:
ALNYLAM PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
A61K 9/48
A61K 9/28
A61K 35/74
C12N 15/87
C12N 1/21
US Classification:
424463, 424474, 424 932, 435463, 4352523, 43525231, 43525232, 43525233, 43525234
Abstract:
A therapeutic composition for inhibiting the function of a target polynucleotide sequence in a mammalian cell includes an agent that provides to a mammalian cell an at least partially double-stranded RNA molecule comprising a polynucleotide sequence of at least about 200 nucleotides in length, said polynucleotide sequence being substantially homologous to a target polynucleotide sequence. This RNA molecule desirably does not produce a functional protein. The agents useful in the composition can be RNA molecules made by enzymatic synthetic methods or chemical synthetic methods in vitro; or made in recombinant cultures of microorganisms and isolated therefrom, or alternatively, can be capable of generating the desired RNA molecule in vivo after delivery to the mammalian cell. In methods of treatment of prophylaxis of virus infections, other pathogenic infections or certain cancers, these compositions are administered in amounts effective to reduce or inhibit the function of the target polynucleotide sequence, which can be of pathogenic origin or produced in response to a tumor or other cancer, among other sources.

US Patent:
20100190842, Jul 29, 2010
Filed:
Apr 14, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/595412
Inventors:
Catherine J. Pachuk - Cambridge MA, US
Daniel E. McCallus - Cambridge MA, US
Assignee:
ALNYLAM PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
A61K 31/7088
C07H 21/04
A61P 31/16
C12N 15/63
US Classification:
514 44 R, 536 231, 4353201
Abstract:
The invention provides isolated RNA molecules containing a stretch of nucleotides from a conserved Influenza sequence, and provides complementary RNA molecules thereto. The RNA molecules of the invention are also substantially non-homologous to human sequences. The RNA molecules of the invention include double-stranded RNAs comprising a first region that is a conserved Influenza sequence, and a second region that is at least substantially complementary to the first region. Such double-stranded RNAs include single short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) as well as multi-target hairpin RNAs containing a plurality, or several, stem-loop structures. The present invention further provides expression constructs that provide for expression of one, or a plurality, of RNA molecules of the invention. The RNA molecules, expression constructs, and compositions of the present invention find use in reducing levels of Influenza A RNA, in reducing Influenza A virus titer, and in treating or preventing Influenza virus infection. The invention is effective against at least human, swine and avian originating strains of Influenza A, and makes gene-silencing therapeutic strategies for combating Influenza A infection feasible.
