摘要:
An antibody is provided. The antibody comprises an Fc region and a Fab region, wherein: (i) the Fc region comprises two non-identical heavy chains, wherein at least one of the two non-identical heavy chains comprises an amino acid modification so as to form complementation between the two non-identical heavy chains thereby increasing the probability of forming heterodimers of the non-identical heavy chains and decreasing the probability of forming homodimers of identical heavy chains; and (ii) the Fab region comprises a first covalent link between a first heavy chain and a first light chain of the Fab region and a second covalent link between a second heavy chain and a second light chain of said Fab region, wherein a position of the first covalent link relative to the first heavy chain is different to a position of the second covalent link relative to the second heavy chain.

摘要:
The present invention relates to activatable toxin complexes which include a cleavable inhibitory peptide. More specifically, the complexes comprise a cell targeting domain, a toxin catalytic domain, a specific protease cleavage site and an inhibitory peptide domain. The inhibitory peptide prevents the catalytic domain from exerting toxic effects until its release from the complex by the action of a protease, such a viral protease, at the protease cleavage site. Further provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the complexes and use thereof for treating infections and malignant disease.

摘要:
An isolated polypeptide comprising a hydrogen generating enzyme attached to a heterologous ferredoxin is disclosed, as well as polynucleotides encoding same, nucleic acid constructs capable of expressing same and cells expressing same. A method for generating hydrogen using the isolated polypeptide is also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a polynucleotide construct encoding a fusion protein consisting of a domain which binds the immunoglobulin Fc region, genetically fused to a truncated form of Pseudomonas exotoxin A (PE). In particular, the invention discloses the fusion protein, ZZ-PE38, and further provides immunotoxins, formed from complexes of the fusion protein with antibodies for targeted cell killing.
摘要:
Isolated polypeptides, isolated polynucleotides or expression vectors encoding same, viral display vehicles which can be specifically bind an exposed epitope shared by mutant, but not wild type, p53 protein are provided. Also provided are methods of inducing apoptosis and treating cancer as well as diagnosing a p53-related cancer using the isolated polypeptides uncovered by the present invention.
