Embodiments relate to a modified cell comprising a polynucleotide encoding an antigen binding molecule and a polynucleotide encoding an agent targeting one or more extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules. In embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding the agent comprises at least a nucleic acid encoding Cathepsin K (CK), a nucleic acid encoding Neutrophil Elastase (NE), or a nucleic acid encoding MMP7. In embodiments, the nucleic acid encoding NE comprises a nucleic acid encoding NE and a nucleic acid encoding a signaling domain of IL2. In embodiments, expression of the polynucleotide encoding the agent is regulated by hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF1?), nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT), forkhead box P3 (FOXP3), or nuclear factor kappa B (NF-?B).

Embodiments provided herein, provide for polypeptides and molecules comprising a polypeptide having protease activity and a variant Fc molecule, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and methods that can be used to treat disorders, such as IgG mediated disorders.

The present invention belongs to the field of biotechnology. More specifically, the present invention provides a protease, a non-naturally occurring fusion protein comprising a corresponding protease recognition site, expression vectors encoding same, host cells comprising said expression vectors, kit of parts as well as methods applying the protease, fusion protein, and uses thereof, as defined in the claims. The presently disclosed protease/protease recognition site is particularly useful in methods requiring an orthogonal set of proteases, and is suitable for use in both prokaryotic and selected eukaryotic expression systems

Embodiments provided herein, provide for polypeptides and molecules comprising a polypeptide having protease activity and a variant Fc molecule, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and methods that can be used to treat disorders, such as IgG mediated disorders.

The present disclosure provides a preparation method of a yak hide-derived oligopeptide ferrous chelate with a high antioxidant activity. The preparation method includes preparing a yak hide-derived oligomeric collagen peptide and subjecting the yak hide-derived oligomeric collagen peptide as a protein source to chelation with an iron source in water. A pretreated yak hide is subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis under a pH value of 7 at 50 C. for 4 h with an amount of an enzyme added at 2% to obtain a yak skin-derived collagen with a molecular weight of less than 2 kDa; the chelation is conducted in a peptide-to-iron mass ratio of 1:1 to 5:1 with a peptide concentration of 1% to 5% at 30 C. to 70 C. for 20 min to 60 min under a pH value of 3 to 8; and an iron chelating capacity is 42.72 mg/g under optimal preparation conditions.

The present invention relates to the field of biochemistry, more particularly to proteomics, more particularly to protein sequencing, even more particularly to single molecule peptide sequencing. The invention discloses means and methods for single molecule protein sequencing and/or amino add identification using cleavage inducing agent. Said cleavage inducing agents which are not specific for one particular amino acid, cleave polypeptides step by step from the N-terminus onwards and provide information on the identity of the cleaved amino acids based on the kinetics of said reaction.

Reagents and methods for the digital analysis of proteins or peptides are provided. Specifically provided herein are proteins for identifying the N-terminal amino acid or N-terminal phosphorylated amino acid of a polypeptide. Also, an enzyme for use in the cleavage step of the Edman degradation reaction and a method for using this enzyme are described.

Disclosed are cluster CAR and therapeutic payload nucleic acids, immune cells containing them, and uses thereof for controllable adoptive cell therapy and killing CAR T-cell resistant tumor cells.

Provided are compositions and methods of generating bioglass microlenses using silicatein expressing cells, as well as compositions comprising the bioglass microlenses and methods of making and using the bioglass microlens compositions.
