Abstract:
The subject invention relates to the cloning, expression and isolation of recombinant forms of beta-amyloid protein containing a N-terminal methionine (or one or more amino acids) as well as to methods of using this recombinant protein in the production of therapeutic antibodies, in the identification of therapeutic small molecules, and in the performance of diagnostic assays.
Abstract:
La presente invención se refiere a la clonación, expresión y aislamiento de formas recombinantes de proteína beta-amiloide conteniendo una metionina N-terminal (o uno o más aminoácidos) así como a métodos para utilizar esta proteína recombinante en la producción de anticuerpos terapéuticos, en la identificación de moléculas pequeñas terapéuticas, y en la realización de ensayos de diagnóstico.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an in vitro aqueous composition comprising a drug, preferably tacrolimus or rapamycin, having enhanced stability. The invention utilizes a binding protein, preferably FKBP, to stabilize the drug in an aqueous matrix.
Abstract:
Centrifugation is used to induce and/or enhance binding between macromolecul ar targets and either small-molecule ligands or larger biomolecules as single entities or mixtures. With the enhanced binding, the method of the invention permits detection of ligands that bind to target substances and improve the design of ligands. The process relies on centrifugal force to establish a differential and selective concentration gradient between macromolecular therapeutic targets and the desired ligands. Once formed, the information about the self-sorting binding events is derived by analyzing the differenti al gradient of macromolecules and ligands in situ or by fractionating the gradient into individual samples for independent analysis. A variety of methods or combinations thereof, can be used to look for enhanced levels of bound ligands.

Abstract:
An assay device, method and kit for detecting or quantitating an analyte in a test sample containing or suspected of containing an analyte of interest. The analytical device comprises a chromatographic material containing a capture reagent, immobilized in a capture situs, and an application pad which receives the test sample and contains a diffusive indicator reagent capable of migrating from the application pad to the chromatographic material. The binding of the indicator reagent results in a detectable signal. Preferably, the device includes all of the reagents necessary to perform the assay. 33
