Human orthopoxvirus antibodies and methods of use therefor
The present disclosure is directed to antibodies binding to and neutralizing Poxvirus and methods for use thereof.
Composition and uses thereof
The present invention provides a particle comprising a fusion protein, wherein the fusion protein comprises at least one NANP repeat (SEQ ID NO: 7), some or all of the C-terminus of the CS protein from Plasmodium falciparum and a hepatitis B surface antigen, and wherein the particle comprises no, or substantially no, free hepatitis B surface antigen protein, and uses thereof.
METHOD FOR PURIFICATION OF MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES
Disclosed is a method for purification of monoclonal antibodies or of a fusion protein between the Fc segment of an antibody and a second polypeptide, including a) an affinity chromatography step on a resin having as a matrix a crosslinked methacrylate polymer gel, on which the protein A is grafted, b) a viral inactivation step, c) a chromatography step exchanging cations on a resin having a crosslinked agarose gel matrix, on which sulfonate groups (—SO.sub.3—) are grafted using dextran-based spacer arms, d) a chromatography step exchanging anions on a hydrophilic membrane of polyethersulfone coated with a crosslinked polymer on which quaternary amine groups (Q) are grafted, and e) a nanofiltration step using a filter having an asymmetric polyethersulfone double membrane with a porosity of approximately 20 nm.

FORMULATIONS OF ANTIBODY MOLECULES TO DENGUE VIRUS
This disclosure relates to formulations of peptide agents, e.g., antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, that bind dengue viruses, and methods of their use.
Polypeptides to inhibit epstein barr viral protein BHRF1 and B cell lymphoma family proteins
The present invention provides designed polypeptides that selectively bind to and inhibit Epstein Barr protein BHFR1, and B cell lymphoma family proteins, and are thus useful for treating Epstein Barr-related diseases and cancer.
COMPOSITION WITH REDUCED IMMUNOGENICITY
The present invention relates to polyclonal antibodies directed against at least one non-human biological pathogen, or against at least one molecule derived from said pathogen, towards a human or a non-human animal organism, wherein the said polyclonal antibodies are devoid of an antigenic determinant selected in a group comprising (i) N-glycolneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) and/or (ii) a-1,3-galactose, and their use as a medicament.
North American Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) Virus and Uses Thereof
The invention provides isolated polynucleotide molecules that comprise a DNA sequence encoding an infectious RNA sequence encoding a genetically-modified North American PRRS virus, methods to make it and related polypeptides, polynucleotides, and various components. Vaccines comprising the genetically modified virus and polynucleotides and a diagnostic kit to distinguish between naturally infected and vaccinated animals are also provided.
