摘要:
Drug fusions and conjugates that contain a therapeutic or diagnostic agent that is fused or conjugated to an antigen-binding fragment of an antibody that binds serum albumin. The conjugates and fusion have a longer in vivo half life in comparison with the unconjugated or unfused therapeutic or diagnostic agent.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a nucleic sequence encoding one or more Tus DNA binding domains, one or more DNA binding sites and at least one polypeptide domain.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for selecting, from a repertoire of polypeptides, a population of functional polypeptides which bind a target ligand in a first binding site and a generic ligand in a second binding site, which generic ligand is capable of binding functional members of the repertoire regardless of target ligand specificity, comprising the steps of: a) contacting the repertoire with the generic ligand and selecting functional polypeptides bound thereto; and b) contacting the selected functional polypeptides with the target ligand and selecting a population of polypeptides which bind to the target ligand. The invention accordingly provides a method by which a polypeptide repertoire is preselected, according to functionality as determined by the ability to bind the generic ligand, and the subset of polypeptides obtained as a result of such preselection is then employed for further selection according to the ability to bind the target ligand.
摘要:
The invention provides a dual-specific ligand comprising a first immunoglobulin variable domain having a first binding specificity and a complementary or non-complementary immunoglobulin variable domain having a second binding specificity.
摘要:
Provided are concentrated preparations comprising single immunoglobulin variable domain polypeptides that bind target antigen with high affinity and are soluble at high concentration, without aggregation or precipitation, providing, for example, for increased storage stability and the ability to administer higher therapeutic doses.

摘要:
The invention concerns a method for screening a repertoire of polypeptides to identify one otr more members thereof which interact with one or more target molecules, comprising: a) immobilising the target molecule(s) on a support; b) arranging a plurality of nucleic acis molecules encoding the repertoire of polypeptides in an array; c) juxtaposing the target molecule(s) and the arrayed nucleic acid molecules; d) expressing the arrayed nucleic acid molecules to produce the polypeptides such that said polypeptides come into contact with the target molecule(s) on the support and a subset of the polypeptides interacts with the target molecules; and e) detecting the interaction of the polypeptides with target molecules on the support. The invention also provides a high density antibody array consisting of thousands of different polypeptide features, spatially arranged on a solid support for screening against different target ligands.
