摘要:
The present invention relates to the efficient expression of HIV polypeptides in a variety of cell types, including, but not limited to, mammalian, insect, and plant cells. Synthetic expression cassettes encoding the HIV Gag-containing polypeptides are described, as are uses of the expression cassettes in applications including DNA immunization, generation of packaging cell lines, and production of Env-, tat- or Gag-containing proteins. The invention provides methods of producing Virus-Like Particles (VLPs), as well as, uses of the VLPs including, but not limited to, vehicles for the presentation of antigens and stimulation of immune response in subjects to whom the VLPs are administered.

摘要:
A method for nucleic acid immunization which results in a cell-mediated immunological response to a selected antigen is disclosed. The method utilizes the T7 RNA infection/transfection system which provides for the controlled, transient cytoplasmic expression of a given antigen and which elicits the production of class I MHC restricted CTLs.
摘要:
The present invention includes optical coatings containing ultraviolet curable monomers employing a bromine substituted fluorene structure. The fluorene backbone of the monomers of the present invention may also be functionalized with one or more polymerizable or reactive functionalities, and most readily at the 9 position. Compositions of the present invention include the reactive bromosubstituted fluorenes combined with inorganic nanoparticles, particularly nanoparticles with reactive surface modifiers exhibiting polymerizable functionality. Reactive high index nanoparticles such as surface modified zirconia are contemplated.

The invention provides an Enzyme Blend comprising a DNA polymerase and a DNA repair enzyme. Methods and kits for amplification of DNA that is damaged, undamaged, or suspected of being damaged are also provided.
摘要:
Techniques are provided for a microfluidic chip for performing a microfluidic reaction. The microfluidic chip includes a rigid layer, a first polymer layer that forms a first surface of a microfluidic chamber within the microfluidic chip, a first adhesive layer disposed between the rigid layer and the first polymer layer, and a second polymer layer that forms a second surface of the microfluidic chamber, and a first port connecting an exterior of the microfluidic chip to the microfluidic chamber through at least the rigid layer, the first polymer layer, and the first adhesive layer. A first self-sealing valve is formed in the first polymer layer and disposed within the first port, the first self-sealing valve configured to seal directly against the rigid layer through a first gap in the first adhesive layer in response to pressure from thermal expansion of a fluid within the microfluidic chamber.
