摘要:
A process for preparing a purified refolded monomer or dimer of a bone-derived factor, which comprises subjecting an inclusion body of a bone-derived factor produced by genetic engineering to the following steps a) to c) in sequence: a) introducing a polynucleotide encoding a bone morphogenetic factor into a bacterium, expressing said bone morphogenetic factor in the form of an inclusion body, recovering said inclusion body and treating it with a denaturing agent to obtain a solubilized monomer, b) treating the solubilized monomer without purification directly with a refolding solution to obtain a refolded monomeric bone morphogenetic factor, c) subjecting the refolded monomeric bone morphogenetic factor to purification.
摘要:
The present invention is concerned with proteins selected from the members of the TGF-β superfamily, which are monomeric due to substitution or deletion of a cystein which is responsible for dimer formation. The invention is also concerned with nucleic acids, encoding such monomeric proteins, vectors or host cells containing the nucleic acids as well as with pharmaceutical compositions comprising the proteins or nucleic acids encoding the proteins. The pharmaceutical compositions can be applied advantageously for all indications for which the respective dimeric proteins are useful.
摘要:
The present invention concerns the use of biologically active MP52 or/and MP121 for the treatment and prevention of diseases of the nervous system or/and for the treatment of neuropathological situations which are caused by ageing of the nervous system. A pharmaceutical agent according to the invention for the treatment and prevention of diseases of the nervous system or/and for treating neuropathological situations which are caused by ageing of the nervous system therefore contains biologically active MP52 or/and MP121 as the active substance.
摘要:
The invention relates to an antibody or antibody fragment which specifically binds to a protein of the TGF-β family. The invention also relates to a kit for detecting a protein of the TGF-β family which comprises the antibody or antibody fragment. Finally, the invention relates to method for detecting a protein of the TGF-β family which uses the antibody or antibody fragment.
摘要:
The invention provides DNA sequences encoding novel members of the TGF-&bgr; family of proteins. The TGF-&bgr; family comprises proteins which function as growth and/or differentiation factors and which are useful in medical applications. Accordingly, the invention also describes the isolation of the above-mentioned DNA sequences, the expression of the encoded proteins, the production of said proteins and pharmaceutical compositions containing said proteins.

摘要:
The present invention is concerned with proteins selected from the members of the TGF-β superfamily, which are monomeric due to substitution or deletion of a cysteine which is responsible for dimer formation. The invention is also concerned with nucleic acids, encoding such monomeric proteins, vectors or host cells containing the nucleic acids as well as with pharmaceutical compositions comprising the proteins or nucleic acids encoding the proteins. The compositions can be applied advantageously for all indications for which the respective dimeric proteins are useful.
