摘要:
A method for generating human IgG1 antibodies with enhanced Fc effector function is disclosed. In practicing the method, an IgG1 Fc look-through mutagenesis (LTM) coding library directed at four receptor-contact regions of the Fc CH2 portion of in human IgG1 Fc is expressed in a system in which the mutated Fc fragments are displayed on the surfaces of the expression cells. The fragments are then screened for altered binding affinity to a selected Fc receptor or other Fc-binding protein. The selected mutations may be used, in turn, to guide the selection of multiple substitutions in the construction of a walk-through mutation (WTM) library, for generating additional Fc fragment mutations with desired binding properties. The antibodies so produced have a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic applications.

摘要:
Universal antibody libraries are described which are synthetic and derived from expressed human antibody sequences selected accordingly to certain criteria, for example, that the sequences are derived from naturally-occurring antibodies expressed in response to a certain antigen class (e.g., small molecule, polysaccharide, peptide, or protein) and having CDR regions engineered for optimal diversity. Methods for making and screening such libraries for isolating therapeutics suitable for treating disease are also disclosed.

摘要:
A bicycle shift control device is provided with a shifter housing, a gear shifting mechanism, a shift operating member, and a shift switching arrangement. The gear shifting mechanism is disposed in the shifter housing with the gear shifting mechanism having a plurality of operating positions. The shift operating member is movable with respect to the shifter housing to operate the gear shifting mechanism. The shift switching arrangement includes a restricting member movably mounted with respect to the shifter housing between a non-shift restricting position and a shift restricting position. The gear shifting mechanism moves in a first set of the operating positions when the restricting member is in the non-shift restricting position, and moves in a second set of the operating positions that are different from the first set of the operating positions when the restricting member is in the shift restricting position.

摘要:
This invention provides a novel membrane-type serine protease (designated MT-SP1) elevated expression of which is associated with cancer. In one embodiment, this invention provides a method obtaining a prognosis or of detecting or staging a cancer in an organism. The method involves providing a biological sample from the organism and detecting the level of a membrane type serine protease 1 (MT-SP1) in the sample, where an elevated level of the membrane-type serine protease, as compared to the level of the protease in a biological sample from a normal healthy organism indicates the presence or stage of the cancer.
