Ferdous A, Gonzalez F, Sun L, Kodadek T, Johnston S
Mol Cell . 2001 Jun; 7(5):981-91. PMID: 11389845
It is generally thought that the primary or even sole activity of the 19S regulatory particle of the 26S proteasome is to facilitate the degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins by the...

Ferdous A, Akaike T, Maruyama A
Bioconjug Chem . 2000 Jul; 11(4):520-6. PMID: 10898573
We previously reported a novel strategy to stabilize purine motif triplex DNA within a mammalian gene promoter at physiologically relevant pH, temperature, and potassium (K(+)) concentrations by a comb-type poly(L-lysine)-graft-dextran...

Maruyama A, Ferdous A, Ishihara T, Asayama S, Park J, Nogawa M, et al.
Nucleosides Nucleotides . 1999 Sep; 18(6-7):1681-2. PMID: 10474245
Various comb-type copolymer containing a polycation as a main chain was design to construct delivery systems of DNAs. The comb-type copolymers having cell-specific polysaccharides were proved to be useful to...

Ferdous A, Watanabe H, Akaike T, Maruyama A
Nucleosides Nucleotides . 1999 Sep; 18(6-7):1651-3. PMID: 10474241
Triplex-stabilizing effect of a graft copolymer under physiologically relevant conditions has been evaluated and compared with other polyamines. Here we show that the graft copolymer significantly stabilizes triplex DNAs with...

J Biol Chem . 1999 Feb; 274(10):6161-7. PMID: 10037700
Extreme instability of pyrimidine motif triplex DNA at physiological pH severely limits its use for artificial control of gene expression in vivo. Stabilization of the pyrimidine motif triplex at physiological...

Ferdous A, Watanabe H, Akaike T, Maruyama A
J Pharm Sci . 1998 Nov; 87(11):1400-5. PMID: 9811497
By employing a reductive amination reaction between the epsilon-amino groups of poly(L-lysine) (PLL) and the reductive ends of the hydrophilic dextran (Dex) side chain, we have prepared different comb-type copolymers...

Nucleic Acids Res . 1998 Aug; 26(17):3949-54. PMID: 9705503
Triplex DNA formation involving unmodified triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFOs) is very unstable under physiological conditions. Here, we report a novel strategy to stabilize both purine and pyrimidine motif triplex DNA within...
