Provided herein are methods for identifying pairs of protein binding partners, mutations of which may inform the discovery of pharmaceutically useful small molecules. The methods disclosed herein may allow for the adaptation of the native protein degradation system to modulate specific disease targets at the protein level, in particular, for targets that have long been considered undruggable.

The present invention provides assays and assay systems for use in spatially encoded biological assays. The invention provides an assay system comprising an assay capable of high levels of multiplexing where reagents are provided to a biological sample in defined spatial patterns; instrumentation capable of controlled delivery of reagents according to the spatial patterns; and a decoding scheme providing a readout that is digital in nature.

The invention provides methods and compositions useful for identifying polypeptides with desired characteristics in vitro.

The present invention relates to methods for predicting T cell epitopes useful for vaccination. In particular, the present invention relates to methods for predicting whether modifications in peptides or polypeptides such as tumor-associated neoantigens are immunogenic and, in particular, useful for vaccination, or for predicting which of such modifications are most immunogenic and, in particular, most useful for vaccination. The methods of the invention may be used, in particular, for the provision of vaccines which are specific for a patient's tumor and thus, in the context of personalized cancer vaccines.

The present invention refers to a method for determining the ability of an immunoglobulin to bind to a post-translationally modified target in an intracellular environment, which folds and it is post-translationally modified as a native protein intracellularly. The present invention also refers to antibodies obtained by the above method and uses thereof.

The presently disclosed subject matter provides methods and compositions for treating myeloid disorders (e.g., acute myeloid leukemia (AML)). It relates to immunoresponsive cells bearing antigen recognizing receptors (e.g., chimeric antigen receptors (CARs)) targeting AML-specific antigens.

It has been demonstrated that certain compounds bind to TNF and stabilise a conformation of trimeric TNF that binds to the TNF receptor. Antibodies which selectively bind to complexes of such compounds with TNF superfamily members are disclosed. These antibodies may be used to detect further compounds with the same activity, and as target engagement biomarker.

The present application provides arrays for use in immunosignaturing and quality control of such arrays. Also disclosed are peptide arrays and uses thereof for diagnostics, therapeutics and research.

The present invention relates to a polypeptide comprising an antigen binding domain and a carrying moiety having an inhibiting domain that inhibits the antigen binding activity of the antigen binding domain, and having a longer half-life than that of the antigen binding domain existing alone, methods for producing and screening for the polypeptide, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the polypeptide, methods for producing and screening for a single-domain antibody whose antigen binding activity is inhibited by associating with particular VL, VH or VHH, and a fusion polypeptide library including a single-domain antibody whose antigen binding activity is inhibited by associating with particular VL, VH or VHH.

The present disclosure relates to compounds, complexes, compositions, kits and methods for determining interacting and/or binding sites between e.g., proteins, proteins and nucleic acids, proteins and small molecules, or intrachain protein domains. The disclosure provides rapid and direct positive identification of the contact interface region between such molecules, and can be applied to individual interacting pairs, as well as large-scale or global interactions.
