Abstract:
The present invention provides a facile and efficient method for determining a chromatographic protocol for separating a target protein from one or more second protein impurity. Also provided is a database facilitating the determination of an appropriate separation protocol.
Abstract:
Proteins can be separated from mixtures, based on their pi values, through the use of a series of chromatographic materials, each comprising a solid buffer and an ion exchange resin. Each solid buffer generates a stable pH, such that passing proteins possess a net charge and can be separated by means of an appropriate ion exchanger. In this fashion, proteins from complex biological fluids can be separated for identification and study.
Abstract:
Materials, apparatuses, methods, and systems for isolating and identifying mixture components on the basis of isoelectric point ("pI"). In one aspect, the materials are particles adapted to have a predetermined isoelectric point. The particles include a porous body into which a plurality of cavities extend. A substance of a predetermined isoelectric point is deposited in the cavities to provide thereby the particle's isoelectric value.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to injectable compositions comprising biocompatible, swellable, substantially hydrophilic, non-toxic and substantially spherical polymeric material carriers which are capable of efficiently delivering bioactive therapeutic factor(s) for use in embolization drug therapy. The present invention further relates to methods of embolization gene therapy, particularly for the treatment of angiogenic and non-angiogenic-dependent diseases, using the injectable compositions.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and kits for purifying a target protein group. The method comprises the steps of contacting a sample comprising at least 95% of the target protein group and at most 5% of contaminating proteins with a library of binding moieties having different binding moieties, binding the contaminating proteins and a minority of the target protein group to the library of binding moieties, separating the unbound target protein group from the proteins bound to the library of binding moieties and collecting the unbound target protein. The collected target protein is more pure than the target protein group in the sample.
Abstract:

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the fields of molecular biology, combinatorial chemistry and biochemistry. Particularly, the present invention describes apparatus and methods for the detection and isolation of binding partners and activity modulators for biomolecules. The apparatus described allows for expression, capture and analysis of one or more biomolecules in a single step.
Abstract:
This invention provides methods and materials for mapping interaction characteristics between components of a multicomponent biological complex. The methods involve capturing a multicomponent complex on a solid support and washing the support with a series of elution washes forming a gradient of solute concentrations, and determining whether a particular elution wash eluted a particular component.
