摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel BAIT protein which is a member of serpin superfamily which is expressed primarily in brain tissue. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the human and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of BAIT activity. Also provided are diagnostic methods for detecting nervous system-related disorders and therapeutic methods for treating nervous system-related disorders. Additionally, the present invention is related to methods of treating patients with BAIT polynucleotides or polypeptides, wherein said patients have had seizures or epilepsy.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel member of the plasminogen activator inhibitor protein family. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the pancreas-derived plasminogen activator inhibitor protein. Pancreas-derived plasminogen activator inhibitor polypeptides are also provided as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to methods for treating physiologic and pathologic disease conditions, including breast cancer, and diagnostic methods for detecting pathologic disorders.
摘要:
A monoclonal antibody which binds a human endothelial type plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) produced by dexamethasone-treated human HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cells may be used, inter alia, for determining PAI-1 protein abundance in tumor tissue or a sample of a body fluid. Measurements of this parameter may be useful in predicting the presence or metastasis of a tumor, or of predicting the progression of a known malignant tumor.

摘要:
A class of carrier molecules which when covalently linked to an immunogen enhances the host's immune response to that immunogen, regardless of whether the complex of carrier and immunogen is administered parenterally, enterally, or orally to the host. Also provided are processes for production of the complexes, as well as hybrid DNA sequences encoding the complexes, recombinant DNA molecules bearing the hybrid DNA sequences, transformed hosts and vaccines comprising the complexes, and methods for production of the vaccine.
摘要:
The present invention relates to serine protease mutants of the chymotrypsin superfamily that are resistant to inhibition by their cognate inhibitors, and genes that encode the same. The present invention also relates to serine protease inhibitor mutants that inhibit the serine protease mutants of the present invention, and genes that encode the same. The serine protease mutants and serine protease inhibitor mutants are useful as, e.g., pharmacological agents.

This invention relates to PAI-2 and its expression as a recombinant molecule in eukaryotic cell lines as a glycosylated secreted molecule, to the constructs expressing it, to host cells expressing it, to compositions comprising it, to methods of treatment, prophylaxis and diagnosis using it and to antibodies raised against it. The invention also provides a 414 amino acid form of PAI-2 wherein the N-terminal methionine residue is deleted, a 60 kD glycosylated secreted recombinant form of PAI-2 and compositions and methods using these molecules. The invention further relates to a novel synthetic signal peptide.
摘要:
A method of separating active and inactive/latent forms of PAI-1 is disclosed comprising loading a sample containing a mixture of active and inactive/latent forms of PAI-1 to either an anion or cation exchange resin of 10-50 micron particle size and eluting active and inactive/latent forms of PAI-1 from the resin into separate fractions. Also disclosed is a method of extracting soluble E. coli-expressed recombinant PAI-1 from the lysed E. coli host cells in a buffered solution, wherein the ionic strength of the buffered solution is 8-25 millisiemens.
