摘要:
A variant of a polypeptide comprising a human IgG Fc region is described, which variant comprises an amino acid substitution at one or more of amino acid positions 270, 322, 326, 327, 329, 331, 333 or 334 of the human IgG Fc region. Such variants display altered effector function. For example, C1q binding and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) activity may be altered in the variant polypeptide. The application also discloses a variant of a parent polypeptide comprising a human IgG Fc region, which variant has a better binding affinity for human C1q than the parent polypeptide.
摘要:
Polypeptides that are cleared from the kidney and do not contain in their original form a Fc region of an IgG are altered so as to comprise a salvage receptor binding epitope of an Fc region of an IgG and thereby have increased circulatory half-life.
摘要:
Humanized anti-CD11a antibodies and various uses therefor are disclosed. The humanized anti-CD11a antibody may bind specifically to human CD11a I-domain, have an IC50(nM) value of no more than about 1 nM for preventing adhesion of Jurkat cells to normal human epidermal keratinocytes expressing ICAM-1, and/or an IC50 (nM) value of no more than about 1 nM in the mixed lymphocyte response assay.

The invention concerns human trkB and trkC receptors and their functional derivatives. The invention further concerns imnunoadhesins comprising trk receptor sequences fused to immunoglobulin sequences.
摘要:
A tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) variant is prepared that has an amino acid deletion at positions 466 to 470 of the corresponding wild-type t-PA. This alteration renders the variant fibrin (and plasma clot) specific as compared to the corresponding wild-type t-PA. DNA sequences can be prepared that encode the variant, as well as expression vectors incorporating the DNA sequences, and host cells transformed with the expression vectors. The variant may be used in a pharmaceutical preparation to treat a vascular disease or condition or to prevent fibrin deposition or adhesion formation or reformation in mammals.
