Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to a conformation dependent epitope on human thymidine kinase 1 (hTK-1; SEQ ID NO:1), to methods for quantifying hTK-1 employing the antibody and to the use of the anti-hTK-1 antibody in quantifying hTK-1.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to improved variant monoclonal antibodies binding to cardiac troponin T and having a better KD than the monoclonal antibody 12.1A11.11-7, produced by hybridoma clone 7.1 A 12.2-22 (ECACC 89060901) as deposited with European Collection of Animal Cell Cultures, GB. 5
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for determining the total amount and/or concentration of an analyte in the presence of a binding molecule as well as kits, compositions and uses relating thereto.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to isolated antibodies, or an antigen portions thereof, which bind to human HER3. The novel antibodies are of great utility since they allow for the sensitive and specific detection of human HER3. Detection of human HER3 is, e.g., possible in a tissue sample, even when such tissue sample is a formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue (FFPET) sample.
Abstract:
Isolated antibodies that specifically bind to an epitope comprised in the stretch of amino acids ranging from amino acid 76 to amino acid 84 of human insulin-like growth factor-1 precursor (SEQ ID NO:1). Use of the novel antibodies for the sensitive and specific detection of insulin-like growth factor-1, in some embodiments while in the presence of high excess concentration of insulin-like growth factor-2, for example in a bodily fluid sample.

Abstract:
A bivalent binding agent having a first monovalent binder that binds to a polypeptide epitope of a target polypeptide, a second monovalent binder that binds to a posttranslational polypeptide modification on the target polypeptide and a linker. Further disclosed are methods for the detection of a posttranslationally modified target polypeptide, for making the disclosed bivalent binding agent, and for use of the disclosed bivalent binding agent in histological staining procedures.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel method of generating libraries of polynucleotides encoding a framework region and at least one adjacent complementarity determining region (CDR) of an antibody of interest. These libraries are suitable for use in affinity maturation procedures in order to obtain maturated antibodies with improved characteristics compared to the parent antibody.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to biotin. In one embodiment the monoclonal antibody according to the invention also does not bind to a biotin moiety on a biotinylated molecule, wherein the biotin moiety is attached to the molecule via the carbon atom of the carboxyl function of the valeric acid moiety of biotin. Also disclosed is a method for generation of an antibody as disclosed herein. The monoclonal antibody according to the invention is of specific use in a method for measuring an analyte in a sample, wherein a (strept)avidin/biotin pair is used to bind a biotinylated analyte specific binding agent to a (strept)avidin coated solid phase.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a library of chimeric polypeptides comprising one or more fragments from the peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase or FKBP family displaying one or more polypeptides on one or more FKBP members and its use in methods for the screening and selection of constrained peptide surrogates exhibiting binding activity versus predetermined target molecules.
