The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for treating or preventing ulcers in subjects having low red blood cell levels and/or hemoglobin levels (e.g, anemia). In some embodiments, the compositions of the disclosure may be used to treat or prevent ulcers associated with anemia.

The present invention provides kits and methods for detecting peptides that change of the fluorescence of dyes upon binding to the dye. In addition, the invention provides methods for identifying said peptides.

Provided herein are, inter alia, compositions and methods for demethylating and methylating a target DNA sequences in a mammalian cell. The compositions and methods are, useful for activity modulation of a targeted gene, or to create a gene regulatory network.

The present invention relates to a cell which coexpresses a first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and a second CAR, wherein the first CAR comprises a phosphorylation amplifying endodomain and wherein the second CAR comprises an activating endodomain.

The present disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a non-naturally occurring fusion molecule and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, formulated for oral delivery to a subject, and designed to provide for improved, effective therapies for treatment of, e.g., inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, cancer, metabolic disorders, and growth deficiency disorders. The present disclosure relates to a non-toxic mutant form of the Vibrio cholera Cholix gene (ntCholix), a variant of Cholix truncated at amino acid A.sup.386 (Cholix.sup.386) and the use of other various Cholix-derived polypeptide sequences to enhance intestinal delivery of biologically-active therapeutics. The systems and methods described herein provide for: the ability to deliver macromolecule doses without injections; the ability to deliver cargo such as siRNA or antisense molecules into intracellular compartments where their activity is required; and the delivery of nanoparticles and dendrimer-based carriers across biological membranes.

A method of producing a fusion protein is provided. The method includes: a) contacting a first protein with a second protein under conditions that enable the formation of an isopeptide bond between said proteins to form a linked protein; and b) contacting the linked protein from (a) with a third protein under conditions that enable the formation of an isopeptide bond between said third protein and said linked protein to form a fusion protein. Peptide linkers and the use of orthogonal pairs of said linkers in the synthesis of fusion proteins are also provided. Recombinant proteins comprising said linkers, nucleic acid molecules encoding said proteins and linkers, vectors comprising said nucleic acid molecules and host cells comprising said vectors and nucleic acid molecules are also contemplated.
