High-specificity antibodies can distinguish between modified (e.g, hIGF-1/Ea 3mut) and endogenous wild-type human IGF-1 proteins. These antibodies have little or no cross-reactivity with hIGF-1 or hIGF-2. They also have little or no cross-reactivity with rodent IGF-1 or IGF-2. The antibodies can be used in pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharamcodynamic (PD) assessments of IGF-1/E peptides that have been administered to humans or animals. A sandwich ELISA assay, using the antibody of the invention as a capture antibody, can quantify the mutant IGF-1/E proteins in samples.
摘要:
A method of generating data indicating whether a set of proteins is a protein complex. The method comprises receiving as input experimental data indicating experimentally observed relationships, each experimentally observed relationship being between a first protein and zero or more second proteins and generating data indicating whether the set of proteins is a protein complex. The experimental data is processed to determine a first data value indicating a number of proteins having a relationship with one or more second proteins and a second data value indicating a number of proteins having a relationship with a selected protein.

Generally, the present invention provides a way of determining in an unsupervised manner additional members for a family that is defined initially through exemplar sequences. The present invention is unsupervised in that it proceeds without any information related to the exemplar sequences defining the family, without aligning the sequences, without prior knowledge of any patterns in the exemplar sequences, and without knowledge of the cardinality or characteristics of any features that may be present in the exemplar sequences. In one aspect of the invention, a method is used to take a set of unaligned sequences and discover several of many patterns common to some or all of the sequences. These patterns can then be used to determine if candidate sequences are members of the family. In another aspect of the invention, a method is used to take a set of sequences and to determine a set of maximal patterns common to a number of sequences The maximal patterns are determined without any previous knowledge about any properties of features that may be present in the processed sequences.

The present invention is a secondary battery having a high specific capacity and good cycleability, and that can be used safely. The secondary battery is manufactured to include an anode formed from a host material capable of absorbing and desorbing lithium in an electrochemical system such as a carbonaceous material, and lithium metal dispersed in the host material. The freshly prepared anodes of the invention are combined with a positive electrode including an active material, a separator that a separates the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and an electrolyte in communication with the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The present invention also includes a method of preparing a freshly prepared anode and a method of operating a secondary battery including the anode of the invention.

The present invention includes lithium cobalt oxides having hexagonal layered crystal structures and methods of making same. The lithium cobalt oxides of the invention have the formula LiwCo1−xAxO2+y wherein 0.96≦w≦1.05, 0≦x≦0.05, −0.02≦y≦0.02 and A is one or more dopants. The lithium cobalt oxides of the invention preferably have a position within the principal component space defined by the relationship axi+byi≦c, wherein xi={right arrow over (S)}i•{right arrow over (P)}c1; yi={right arrow over (S)}i•{right arrow over (P)}c2; the vector {right arrow over (S)}i is the x-ray spectrum for the LiwCo1−xAxO2+y compound; the vectors {right arrow over (P)}c1 and {right arrow over (P)}c2 defining the principal component space are determined by measuring the x-ray powder diffraction values {right arrow over (S)}i between 15° and 120° using a 0.02° step size and CuKα rays for a large sample set of lithium cobalt oxides and using the regression of {right arrow over (S)}i of the sample set against the capacity fade after 50 cycles of a lithium coin cell that includes a lithium negative electrode and the lithium cobalt oxide as the positive electrode material and that is cycled between 3.0 and 4.3V at a constant current of C/3 during both charge and discharge cycles; and the values a, b and c are determined by using only the xi and yi values for LiwCo1−xAxO2+y compounds in the sample set that have a capacity fade after 50 cycles of less than or equal to 15%.
