摘要:
Disclosed are methods of introducing diversity into antibody molecules substitutions of at least one amino acid sequence in the CDR of the target antibody together with at least one amino acid in the FW region spanning the 3 amino acid adjoining the CRD on each side. The resulting diverse antibodies with variant CDRs and flanking region sequences comprising diverse amino acid sequences Libraries comprising a plurality of these polypeptides are also provided as well as methods of and compositions for generating and using these polypeptides and libraries.
摘要:
A first aspect of the invention relates to the field of binding molecules targeted at pathogens. The present invention further relates to proteinaceous binding molecules targeting cells displaying pathogen-associated molecular patterns, in particular targeting cell surface molecules associated with or derived from pathogens, more in particular cell surface proteins displaying peptides from intracellular (pathogen associated) proteins.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of a fully human antigen binding fragment of an antibody for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment or diagnosis of an ocular disease upon topical administration. The invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition for ocular topical administration for treatment or diagnosis of an ocular disease comprising a fully human binding fragment of an antibody. In particular, the antibody neutralises HSV1 and HSV2.
摘要:
This invention provides for the plant production of immunoglobulins, wherein at least a portion of the glycans attached to the immunoglobulins lack fucose. The invention also provides the constructs; plasmids; vectors; transformed plant cells, transformed plant calli, transformed plant tissues (e.g., leaves, seeds, tubers, etc.) and transformed whole plants used to produce such immunoglobulins; methods of producing the immunoglobulins; the immunoglobulins produced by the disclosed methods; and the use of such immunoglobulins.
摘要:
The present invention describes human monoclonal antibodies which immunoreact with Herpes simplex virus Type-1 and Type-2. Also disclosed are immunotherapeutic and diagnostic methods of using the monoclonal antibodies, as well as nucleic acids and cell lines for producing the monoclonal antibodies.

Deletion mutant of bovine herpesvirus type 1 which has a deletion in the glycoprotein gE-gene. The mutant may further have a deletion in the thymidine kinase gene and/or the glycoprotein gI-gene, or have an insertion of a heterologous gene. Recombinant nucleic acid which comprises the gE-gene or a part thereof. Glycoprotein gE, peptides based thereon and complexes of the glycoproteins gE and gI, and antibodies against them. Vaccines and diagnostic kits comprising any one of these materials.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a new human herpesvirus-7, proteins encoded in the genome of the virus, and antibodies specific for the virus and proteins. The virus was isolated from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells following incubation of the cells under conditions promoting T cell activation. Cultures of lymphocytes infected with the virus exhibited a cytopathic effect and electron microscopic analyses revealed a characteristic herpesvirus structure. The new virus is distinct from previously characterized human herpesvirus. The invention also relates to bioassays for the diagnosis of human herpesvirus-7 and the detection of human herpesvirus-7 in a biological sample. It further relates to a vaccine for humans against human herpesvirus-7.
摘要:
Novel methods for designing humanized immunoglobulins having one or more complementary determining regions (CDR's) from a donor immunoglobulin and a framework region from a human immunoglobulin comprising first comparing the framework or variable region amino acid sequence of the donor immunoglobulin to corresponding sequences in a collection of human immunoglobulin chains, and selecting as the human immunoglobulin one of the more homologous sequences from the collection. Each humanized immunoglobulin chain may comprise about 3 or more amino acids from the donor immunoglobulin in addition to the CDR's, usually at least one of which is immediately adjacent to a CDR in the donor immunoglobulin. The heavy and light chains may each be designed by using any one or all three additional position criteria. When combined into an intact antibody, the humanized immunoglobulins of the present invention will be substantially non-immunogenic in humans and retain substantially the same affinity as the donor immunoglobulin to the antigen, such as a protein or other compound containing an epitope.
摘要:
CR2 reactive polypeptides that correspond to amino acid residues in the amino terminal region of EBVgp350/220 and analogues thereof are described. Polypeptide sequences that correspond to at least 5 contiguous residues of the linear sequence of EBVgp350/220 and include at least one of residues 21-24 or 25-27 of the linear sequence bind to the CR2 receptor. Polypeptide aggregates comprising at least two CR2 reactive polypeptides find use as immunopotentiators, stimulating B cells. The aggregates also inhibit infection of B cells by EBV. Treatment methods and diagnostics are also described.
摘要:
The PINBALL HERPES ANTIBODY SYSTEM prevents people from getting HERPES. It prevents people from getting HERPES SIMPLEX 1 VIRUS (HSV-1) (HERPES 1) on their genitals, mouth, anus, hands, eyes and face. It also prevents people from getting SIMPLEX 2 VIRUS (HSV-2) (HERPES 2) on their genitals, mouth, anus, hands, eyes and face. And it prevents a baby from getting infected with HERPES 1 and HERPES 2 during birth.
