摘要:
A secretin or secretin derivative protected against peptidase activity. The secretin or derivative comprises a peptidic sequence and a reactive group selected from the group consisting of succinimidyl and maleimido groups capable of reacting with an amino group, hydroxyl group or thiol group on a blood component to form a stable covalent bond. The reactive group is attached at a position along the peptidic sequence that provides, when conjugated to a blood component, a higher stability against peptidase degradation than the unconjugated secretin or derivative, and therefore an increased maintenance of the therapeutic activity compared to the unconjugated secretin or derivative. Such a compound is thus effective to provide a source of secretin having a high stability against peptidases. A method for synthesizing such a compound is also described.

Peptides exhibiting anti-viral and anti-fusogenic activity are modified to provide greater stability and improved half-life in vivo. The selected peptides include fusion inhibitors DP178 and DP107 and related peptides and analogs thereof. The modified peptides are capable of forming covalent bonds with one or more blood components, preferably a mobile blood component.

摘要:
Methods and compositions are provided for identifying compounds having affinity or complementarity to a target molecule. Compounds according to the invention may be described by the formula E-Ca—R—Cb-A, wherein E is a therapeutic or diagnostic agent, R is a reactive group, Ca and Cb are connector groups between E and R and between R and A, respectively, and A is an affinity group comprising the sequence F-1-Y-E-E. Compounds according to the invention may be used for labeling the target molecule, particularly where the target molecule is naturally found in a complex mixture, such as a physiological fluid, like blood. By affinity labeling in vivo, the lifetime of physiologically active entities can be greatly enhanced by becoming bound to long-lived blood components. The covalently bound entity may also serve as an antagonist or agonist of a particular binding protein or as an enzyme inhibitor.
