2004000, Jan 15, 2004
Filed:
May 13, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/438255
Inventors:
Tony Romeo - Decatur GA, US
Debra Jackson - La Place LA, US
Jerry Simecka - Mansfield TX, US
Debra Jackson - La Place LA, US
Jerry Simecka - Mansfield TX, US
International Classification:
A61K048/00
A61K031/7076
A61K031/70
A61K031/4164
A61K031/7076
A61K031/70
A61K031/4164
US Classification:
514/023000, 514/046000, 514/044000, 514/396000
Abstract:
The invention relates to methods and compositions for modulating the biofilm formation by bacteria. In particular, the invention provides a method for reducing biofilm formation by bacteria comprising administering a control agent wherein the control agent is glucose, a glucose analogue, an adenylate cyclase inhibitor, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, or a IIAdephosphorylation stimulator. The invention also provides a method for enhancing biofilm formation by bacteria comprising administering cAMP or a cAMP analogue.
Methods For Polysaccharide Adhesion Synthesis Modulation
US Patent:
2004011, Jun 17, 2004
Filed:
Sep 29, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/675226
Inventors:
Tony Romeo - Decatur GA, US
Xin Wang - Atlanta GA, US
Xin Wang - Atlanta GA, US
International Classification:
A61K048/00
US Classification:
514/044000
Abstract:
There is provided a method for modulation of polysaccharide adhesin synthesis involving products of the ycdSRQP gene operon in bacteria, depicted in SEQ. ID. NO. 1 and 2. Also provided is the use of an inhibitor of a product of the ycdSRQP operon in improving the response of a mammalian patient suffering from a bacterial infection.
Compounds And Methods For Modulating Bacterial Functions
US Patent:
2004017, Sep 2, 2004
Filed:
Sep 29, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/675738
Inventors:
Tony Romeo - Decatur GA, US
Xin Wang - Atlanta GA, US

International Classification:
A61K038/00
C12N001/21
C12N001/21
US Classification:
514/002000, 435/252330
Abstract:
There is provided a method of reducing biofilm formation by biofilm-forming bacterial strains such as Salmonella, Klebsiella, or a related gamma proteobacteria. CsrA activity levels in the cell may be modulated to impact biofilm formation and glycogen metabolism. CsrA levels may be modulated by modulating the expression of csrB RNA and UvrY and BarA gene products. By increasing levels of CsrB, BarA or SdiA in a bacterial cell or increasing the rate of UvrY phosphorylation, one can increase the levels of active UvrY in the strain. There is also provided a modulator of CsrA activity in a bacteria comprising a nucleotide sequence containing the sequence element CAGGAUG.
Novel Genes Involved In The Escherichia Coli Biofilm Formation And Uses Thereof
US Patent:
2005003, Feb 10, 2005
Filed:
Apr 16, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/826967
Inventors:
Tony Romeo - Decatur GA, US
Xin Wang - Atlanta GA, US
Rebecca Desplas - Dallas TX, US
Xin Wang - Atlanta GA, US
Rebecca Desplas - Dallas TX, US
International Classification:
C12Q001/68
US Classification:
435006000
Abstract:
The present invention relates to biofilm genes, their polypeptides, and the use of such genes, polypeptides and control regions in determining compositions for use in the disruption of biofilms and the treatment of disease. The identified compositions regulate the expression of the biofilm genes or modulate the activity of their protein products.
