Alternative Translation Initiation and Termination of Immunoglobulin (Ig) Folds (AltIg) for the Synthesis of Bifunctional Polypeptides
This invention is a novel way to create Alternative Igs (AltIgs). This invention could be used to fuse two proteins together as a single polypeptide by fusing the AltIg end of one protein to the other protein. This would create a different spatial relationship between the proteins than could be achieved if the native Ig was fused in a conventional manner.
Background:
Fusing...

Peptide-Based Modulators of HMGBl Activity Protect Against Cell Damage and Inflammation
This technology assists with the inhibition of HMGB1 to decrease the body’s inflammatory response, which occurs when the HMGB1 protein binds to DNA and TLR4. By decreasing HMGB1 binding to DNA, cell inflammation can be significantly reduced, thus preventing further cell damage. This technology can be used in a large spectrum of diseases, such...
