摘要:
The present invention relates to CD20 binding molecules and nucleic acid sequences encoding CD20 binding molecules. In particular, the present invention relates to CD20 binding molecules with a high binding affinity, and a low dissociation rate, with regard to human CD20. Preferably, the CD20 binding molecules of the present invention comprise light and/or heavy chain variable regions with fully human frameworks (e.g. human germline frameworks).
摘要:
High potency antibodies, including immunologically active fragments thereof, having high kinetic association rate constants and optional high affinities are disclosed, along with methods for producing such antibodies. The high potency antibodies disclosed herein are neutralizing or non-neutralizing type and have specificity for antigens displayed by microorganisms, especially viruses as well as antigenic sites present on cancer cells and on various types of toxins, and the products of toxins. Processes for production of high potency neutralizing antibodies and increasing the potency of already existing neutralizing antibodies are also described. Methods of using said antibodies in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases, especially diseases induced or caused by viruses, are disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention provides optimized heteromeric variable region binding fragments and antibodies comprising optimized heteromeric variable region binding fragments. Preferably, the optimized heteromeric variable region binding fragments exhibit optimized activity compared to donor heteromeric variable regions and have unvaried human frameworks. The present invention also provides methods of making the optimized heteromeric variable region binding fragments.
摘要:
The present invention provides polypeptides, particularly therapeutic antibodies, comprising a novel, variant Fc region. Furthermore the invention provides variant Fc regions which confer an altered effector function or altered serum half life upon a polypeptide to which it is operable attached.
摘要:
The invention provides a butyrylcholinesterase variant having increased cocaine hydrolysis activity as well as the corresponding encoding nucleic acid. The invention further provides methods of hydrolyzing a cocaine-based butyrylcholinesterase substrate as well as methods of treating a cocaine-induced condition with the invention variant.
摘要:
The invention provides twenty-five butyrylcholinesterase variants having increased cocaine hydrolysis activity as well as the corresponding encoding nucleic acids.

The invention further provides methods of hydrolyzing a cocaine-based butyrylcholinesterase substrate as well as methods of treating a cocaine-induced condition.
摘要:
An anti-IL-6 antibody, including isolated nucleic acids that encode at least one anti-IL-6 antibody, vectors, host cells, transgenic animals or plants, and methods of making and using thereof have applications in diagnostic and/or therapeutic compositions, methods and devices.
摘要:
The present invention provides polypeptide Fc region variants and oligonucleotides encoding Fc region variants. Specifically, the present invention provides compositions comprising novel Fc region variants, methods for identifying useful Fc region variants, and methods for employing Fc region variants for treating disease.
摘要:
The present invention relates to TNF-α binding molecules and nucleic acid sequences encoding TNF-α binding molecules. In particular, the present invention relates to TNF-α binding molecules with a high binding affinity, a high association rate, a low dissociation rate with regard to human TNF-α and that are capable of neutralizing TNF-α at low concentrations. Preferably, the TNF-α binding molecules of the present invention comprise light and/or heavy chain variable regions with fully human frameworks (e.g. human germline frameworks).
摘要:
The invention provides a butyrylchinesterase variant, a method of converting a camptothecin derivative to a topoisomerase inhibitor by contacting the camptothecin derivative with a butyrylcholinesterase variant and a method of treating cancer by administering to an individual an effective amount a butyrylcholinesterase variant exhibiting increased capability to convert a camptothecin derivative to a topoisomerase inhibitor compared to butyrylcholinesterase.
