Antiviral polypeptides and methods of use are provided herein. In particular, these polypeptides can comprise the Yodha amino acid sequence, variants, derivatives, or truncated versions thereof. In certain embodiments, this disclosure relates to uses of the peptides, nucleic acid molecules, and compositions disclosed herein to treat or prevent a viral infection.

The present invention concerns compositions and methods of use of bispecific antibodies comprising at least one anti-TNF-α antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof and at least one anti-IL-6 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof. Preferably, the bispecific antibody is in the form of a DNL® complex. The anti-TNF-α or anti-IL-6 antibodies may comprise specific CDR sequences disclosed herein. The compositions and methods are of use to treat autoimmune disease, immune system dysfunction or inflammatory disease, as disclosed herein.

Compositions comprising an isolated peptide, which may for example optionally comprise a sequence selected from the group consisting of YDYNWY (SEQ ID NO: 1), YDYNLY (SEQ ID NO: 2), FDYNFY (SEQ ID NO: 3), FDYNLY (SEQ ID NO: 4), FDYNWY (SEQ ID NO: 5), YDWNLY (SEQ ID NO: 6), YDWHLY (SEQ ID NO: 7), and WDYNLY (SEQ ID NO: 8), extracted from organisms such as aquatic organisms and moss or any other sequence described herein, and methods of using same, including for treatment of or prevention of formation of microbial biofilms and against adhesion of a cell to a surface.

The present invention relates to dual GLP-1/glucagon receptor agonists and their medical use, for example in the treatment of disorders of the metabolic syndrome, including diabetes and obesity, as well as for reduction of excess food intake.

Structurally stabilized, e.g., stapled, peptides with the ability to translocate through microbial cell membranes to the interior of microbial cells and exert a biological activity there are provided, as are methods of designing, making and using such peptides.

The present invention provides new protease resistant polypeptides, as well as compositions and methods for treating, ameliorating or preventing conditions related to joint damage, including acute joint injury and arthritis.

Compositions, methods, strategies, kits, and systems for the supercharged protein-mediated delivery of functional effector proteins into cells in vivo, ex vivo, or in vitro are provided. Compositions, methods, strategies, kits, and systems for delivery of functional effector proteins using cationic lipids and cationic polymers are also provided. Functional effector proteins include, without limitation, transcriptional modulators (e.g., repressors or activators), recombinases, nucleases (e.g., RNA-programmable nucleases, such as Cas9 proteins; TALE nuclease, and zinc finger nucleases), deaminases, and other gene modifying/editing enzymes. Functional effector proteins include TALE effector proteins, e.g., TALE transcriptional activators and repressors, as well as TALE nucleases. Compositions, methods, strategies, and systems for the delivery of functional effector proteins into cells is useful for therapeutic and research purposes, including, but not limited to, the targeted manipulation of a gene associated with disease, the modulation of the expression level of a gene associated with disease, and the programming of cell fate.
