摘要:
Hydrophobically-modified proteins and methods of making them are described. A hydrophobic moiety is attached to a surface amino acid residue of the protein. The hydrophobic moiety can be a lipid or a peptide. Alternatively, the protein can be derivatized by a wide variety of chemical reactions that append a hydrophobic structure to the protein. The preferred protein is of mammalian origin and is selected from the group consisting of Sonic, Indian, and Desert hedgehog. The hydrophobic moiety is used as a convenient tether to which may be attached a vesicle such as a cell membrane, liposome, or micelle.

The invention relates to novel polyalkylene glycol compounds and methods of using them. In particular, compounds comprising a novel polyethylene glycol conjugate are used alone, or in combination with antiviral agents to treat a viral infection, such as chronic hepatitis C.

The present invention relates to antibodies that bind phosphorylated forms of IRAK4, methods of using such antibodies to detect IRAK4 biological activity, and methods for the detection, diagnosis, and prognostication of pathological conditions related to IRAK4 biological activity. ERAK4 is one member of a small family of highly conserved cytoplasmic signal transduction proteins characterized by the presence of an N-terminal “death domain” and a C-terminal serine-threonine kinase domain. IRAK4 functions in cytoplasmic signal transduction pathways by interacting with membrane spanning proteins which play, inter alia, critical roles in vertebrate immune system function.
