Detection and removal of misfolded proteins/peptides
The invention concerns the field of detecting and quantifying misfolded proteins/peptides. In particular the detection and quantification of misfolded proteins/peptides in body fluids, on cell surfaces of humans and mammals, the detection of misfolded proteins/peptides in reagents to be tested for scientific research and/or diagnostic use and in pharmaceutical medication or their additives and it concerns as well the removal of misfolded proteins/peptides from reagents to be tested for scientific research and/or for diagnostic purposes and from pharmaceutical medication or their additives. Furthermore the invention includes substances to identify and methods to detect bio-films, a method to examine hemocompatibility of materials and a method to optimize therapeutical products, and to provide reagents microorganisms to charge with for more reliable diagnostics and quality control of biopharmaceuticals and identification substances for the screening for preliminary stages of amyloids that can be used for technical purposes.
MODIFIED POLYNUCLEOTIDES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF PROTEINS
The invention relates to compositions and methods for the preparation, manufacture and therapeutic use of polynucleotides, primary transcripts and mmRNA molecules.
PLASMINOGEN REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR PLASMINOGEN-DEFICIENCY
Subjects of the invention are a method of plasminogen supplementation in a plasminogen-deficient subject, and method for the treatment of plasminogen-deficiency in a plasminogen-deficient subject. These methods comprise administering to the plasminogen-deficient subject a dose of plasminogen, and more particularly Glu-plasminogen, for increasing the subject plasminogen activity level by at least about 1%, and more particularly by at least about 10%, of the normal plasminogen activity and for maintaining said increased plasminogen activity level over a supplementation period or a treatment period. The plasminogen-deficient subject of the present invention may suffer from Type-I, Type-II plasminogen-deficiency or an acquired deficiency.
HUMAN BLOOD-DERIVED PRODUCTS HAVING DECREASED FIBRINOLYTIC ACTIVITY AND USES THEREOF IN HEMOSTATIC DISORDERS
The present invention provides therapeutic products with decreased fibrinolytic activity of t-PA-deficient and/or plasminogen-deficient blood products, as well as compositions, kits and methods using the same in treating bleeding associated with hereditary or acquired bleeding disorders. The invention further provides extracorporeal apparatus for blood or blood products Plasmapheresis aimed to prevent or treat bleeding disorders.
PROCESS FOR ISOLATING PLASMINOGEN FROM A BLOOD PLASMA FRACTION
The present invention relates to a method for isolating plasminogen from a blood plasma fraction comprising dispersing a precipitate of a blood plasma fraction containing plasminogen in a basic aqueous buffer, separating solid parts thereof and removing at least parts of other proteins, and extracting the plasminogen with an acidic aqueous buffer.
MODIFIED POLYNUCLEOTIDES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF BIOLOGICS AND PROTEINS ASSOCIATED WITH HUMAN DISEASE
The invention relates to compositions and methods for the preparation, manufacture and therapeutic use of polynucleotides, primary transcripts and mmRNA molecules.
Mirac proteins
This disclosure relates to a method of generating conditionally active biologic proteins from wild type proteins, in particular therapeutic proteins, which are reversibly or irreversibly inactivated at the wild type normal physiological conditions. For example, evolved proteins are virtually inactive at body temperature, but are active at lower temperatures.

Reversibly inactivated acidified plasmin composition
The present invention provides a fibrinolytic composition useful as a therapeutic for administration to a patient having a thrombotic occlusion. In one aspect of the present invention, the fibrinolytic composition comprises a reversibly inactivated acidified serine protease substantially free of a plasminogen activator, a low buffering capacity buffer, and optionally, a stabilizing agent. In another aspect of the invention, the fibrinolytic composition of the present invention comprises a reversibly inactivated acidified plasmin substantially free of a plasminogen activator, a low buffering capacity buffer, and optionally, a stabilizing agent.
