| 摘要 |
The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery of methods for identifying compounds that mediate (by promoting or inhibiting) protein-protein interaction (e.g., aggregation, dimerization, or other physiologially significant association). Compounds that mediate such interaction, which are also within the scope of the invention, can be used to treat Alzheimer's disease, disorders associated with expanded CAG repeats (such as Huntington's disease), and disorders in which polyglutamine-containing transcription factors or coactivators are undesirably active (e.g., disorders associated with homodimerization of jun or hexamerization of p53.
