摘要:
A dimer comprising a mutated neublastin polypeptide coupled to a polymer is disclosed. Such dimers exhibit prolonged bioavailability and, in preferred embodiments, prolonged biological activity relative to wild-type forms of neublastin.
摘要:
This invention relates to delivery of biologically active cargo molecules, such as polypeptides and nucleic acids, into the cytoplasm and nuclei of cells in vitro and in vivo. Intracellular delivery of cargo molecules according to this invention is accomplished by the use of novel transport polypeptides which comprise HIV tat protein or one or more portions thereof, and which are covalently attached to cargo molecules. The transport polypeptides in preferred embodiments of this invention are characterized by the presence of the tat basic region (amino acids 49-57), the absence of the tat cysteine-rich region (amino acids 22-36) and the absence of the tat exon 2-encoded carboxy-terminal domain (amino acids 73-86) of the naturally-occurring tat protein. By virtue of the absence of the cysteine-rich region, the preferred transport polypeptides of this invention solve the potential problems of spurious trans-activation and disulfide aggregation. The reduced size of the preferred transport polypeptides of this invention also minimizes interference with the biological activity of the cargo molecule.

摘要:
Human lipocortins III, IV, V and VI, DNA sequences and recombinant DNA molecules that are characterized in that they code for these human lipocortins. Hosts transformed with these sequences may be employed in the processes of this invention to produce the human lipocortin molecules of this invention. These polypeptides possess anti-inflammatory activity and are useful in the treatment of arthritic, allergic, dermatologic, ophthalmic and collagen diseases.
摘要:
DNA sequences, recombinant DNA molecules and hosts transformed with them which produce human phospholipase inhibitor polypeptides and methods of making and using these products. The DNA sequences and recombinant DNA molecules are characterized in that they code on expression for a human phospholipase inhibitor polypeptide. In appropiate hosts these DNA sequences permit the production of human phospholipase inhibitor polypeptides.
