Optimized Trpm8 Nucleic Acid Sequences And Their Use In Cell Based Assays And Test Kits To Identify Trpm8 Modulators

View page
US Patent:
20070259354, Nov 8, 2007
Filed:
Sep 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/536394
Inventors:
Guy Servant - San Diego CA, US
Paul Brust - San Diego CA, US
Bryan Moyer - San Diego CA, US
Min Lu - San Diego CA, US
Fernando Echeverri - Chula Vista CA, US
David Dahan - Oceanside CA, US

Assignee:
Senomyx, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68
C07H 21/02
C07H 21/04
C12N 15/85
C12N 5/10
US Classification:
435006000, 435320100, 435358000, 435363000, 435365000, 435366000, 435367000, 536023100, 536024100
Abstract:
Modified human TRPM8 nucleic acid sequences which are efficiently expressed in human cells and cell-based assays and test kits containing same are provided. These assays identify TRPM8 modulators using cells that express a modified human TRPM8 nucleic acid sequence according to the invention, wherein said sequence has been modified relative to a wild-type human TRPM8 nucleic acid sequence in order to optimize ion channel expression in desired cells. Assays using these modified TRPM8 sequences have been shown to identify compounds that modulate the human TRPM8 ion channel better or comparably to known coolants such as menthol and icilin.

Novel Cell-Based Assays For Identifying Enhancers Or Inhibitors Of T1R Taste Receptors (T1R2/T1R3 Sweet) And Umami (T1R1/T1R3 Umami) Taste Receptors

View page
US Patent:
20080305500, Dec 11, 2008
Filed:
Jul 24, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/782336
Inventors:
Guy Servant - San Diego CA, US
Poonit Kamdar - Boston MA, US
Adam Rivadeneyra - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Senomyx, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/53
G01N 33/567
G01N 33/569
US Classification:
435 721, 435 72, 435 731
Abstract:
This invention relates to improved assays for identifying modulators (enhancers or inhibitors) of sweet (T1R2/T1R3) and umami (T1R1/T1R3) taste receptors. These receptors may comprise the endogenous T1Rs e.g., from humans or rodents, or may comprise functional variants such as chimeric taste receptors comprising the extracellular portion of one T1R or a variant or fragment thereof, either T1R1 or T1R2, and the transmembrane portion of another T1R or a variant or fragment thereof, either T1R1 or T1R2, preferably associated with a T1R3 polypeptide and a suitable G protein. The subject assays preferably use endogenous taste or gastrointestinal cells which express T1R taste receptors or recombinant cell which express such T1Rs, for example mammalian cells or . The modulators (enhancers or inhibitors) identified according to the subject assays are useful as taste modulators (which is confirmed in taste tests) and/or as therapeutics for treating conditions such as diabetes, obesity, weight control, fat metabolism, glucose metabolism, insulin metabolism, satiety and/or the release of satiety peptides such as GLP-1.

Trpm5 Based Assays And The Use Thereof For The Identification Of Modulators Of Sweet, Bitter Or Umami (Savory) Taste

US Patent:
20070161052, Jul 12, 2007
Filed:
Oct 19, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/583086
Inventors:
Guy Servant - San Diego CA, US
Mark Williams - Carlsbad CA, US
Andrew Patron - San Marcos CA, US
Poonit Kamdar - San Diego CA, US
Qing Chen - San Diego CA, US
Bryan Moyer - San Diego CA, US

Amy Ligani - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
SENOMYX, INC. - LaJolla CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/567
US Classification:
435007200
Abstract:
Robust cell based assays are provided that use cells that express wild-type or modified TRPM5 nucleic acid sequences in order to identify putative taste modulators, preferably sweet, bitter and umami taste modulators. The preferred assays use HEK-293 cells that express TRPM5, optionally at least one GPCR, preferably a taste specific GPCR, and a G protein that couples therewith. These assays detect TRPM5 modulators by use of membrane potential dyes that emit fluorescence on changes in TRPM5 activity based on changes in membrane potential and these changes in fluorescence are detectable using Fluorimetric Imaging Plate Readers (FLIPR).
