摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and systems for predicting the phenotype conferred by a protein. Such methods and systems facilitate the design, optimisation, and assessment of the efficiency of a therapeutic regimen based on the genotype of the disease affecting the patient.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods of modulating the antigen-binding affinity of an antibody by determining, using data corresponding to the structure of a complex between the antibody and an antigen in a solvent, a representation of a charge distribution of the CDRs of the antibody which minimizes electrostatic contribution to binding free energy between the antibody and the antigen in a solvent. Guided by these determinations, the antibody is accordingly modified (altered) to improve upon, e.g., antibody/antigen binding by modifying at least one amino acid residue to decrease the binding free energy between the antibody and antigen when bound in a solvent.

The invention provides humanized antibodies that bind to a plurality of β-chemokines, particularly monocyte chemotactic proteins MCP-1, MCP-2 and MCP-3. The invention also provides therapeutic reagents and methods of treating disorders associated with detrimental MCP activity.
摘要:
The present invention is based, at least in part, on the discovery that strategic modifications of non-human donor antibody CDR residue(s) can be used to humanize antibodies. Such modifications modulate the 3D structural fit between donor antibody CDRs and human acceptor antibody framework regions that comprise the variable domains of a CDR-grafted antibody. Whereas prior art methods of humanization have relied on making framework substitutions (in which selected human framework residues are backmutated to the corresponding amino acid residue present in the non-human donor antibody), the instant invention is based, at least in part, on a method of humanizing antibodies in which selected CDR residues, and optionally adjacent FR residues, are changed in order to accommodate differences in FR amino acid sequences between donor and acceptor antibodies.

摘要:
The invention pertains to humanized forms of an anti-CRIPTO antibody and portions thereof. In one embodiment, the variable regions of these antibodies or polypeptides comprising them (e.g., full-length antibodies or domain deleted antibodies) can be used to treat disorders, such as cancer.
摘要:
The invention concerns the generation of a three dimensional model of the six helix bundle (6HB) complexed with an inhibitor and the use of that model to identify, screen and/or develop inhibitors against viruses that use a class I fusion protein. Such inhibitors of viruses that use a class I fusion protein may be effective for treating, for example, respiratory infections by Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV).
