This disclosure describes compositions and methods that involve a first modular component and a second modular component. The first modular component includes a first target molecule coupled to a first dimerizing moiety. The second modular component includes a second target molecule coupled to a second dimerizing moiety. The first dimerizing moiety dimerizes with the second dimerizing moiety when the first dimerizing moiety binds a chemical induced proximity (CIP) inducer.

Compositions and methods for controlling cellular function

This invention relates to novel cancer treatment compositions and associated therapeutic methods. More particularly, this invention relates in part to small chemical bifunctional inhibitors of DNA replication and repair proteins Metnase and/or Intnase (also termed Gypsy Integrase, Gypsy Integrease-1, Gypsy Retransposon Integrase 1, or GIN-I) that simultaneously damage DNA, and to a therapeutic method that utilizes the inhibitors to increase the effectiveness of cancer treatment protocols, including radiation therapy. In preferred embodiments, compounds, compositions and methods of treatment of the invention are used to treat a patient suffering from leukemia (e.g. acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and related cancers. In certain aspects of such treatments, compounds, compositions and methods of treatment of the invention are administered as a monotherapy (in some cases, to patients who have exhibited resistance to Topo IIalpha inhibitors such as VP-16), or are co-administered with a Topo IIalpha inhibitor or other anti-cancer agents as otherwise described herein or in combination with radiation therapy.

Bifunctional metnase/intnase inhibitors and related compositions and methods of treatment of cancer

The present invention is directed to compositions comprising organocatalysts that facilitate stereo-selective reactions and the method of their synthesis and use. Particularly, the invention relates to metal-free organocatalysts for facilitation of stereo-selective reactions, and the method of their synthesis and use.
