Provided are binding molecules, such as TCRs or antigen binding fragments thereof and antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof, such as those that recognize or bind human papilloma virus (HPV) 16, including HPV 16 E6 and HPV 16 E7. Also provided are engineered cells containing such binding molecules, compositions containing the binding molecules or engineered cells, and methods of treatment, such as administration of the binding molecules, engineered cells, or compositions.

The present invention relates to antibody-based molecules (including single domain antibody fragment, scFv molecules, antibodies, antibody fragments, diabodies, and the epitope-binding domains thereof) that are capable of immunospecifically and selectively binding to the .sup.{p}Ser404 Epitope of Tau. Such antibody-based molecules are useful to detect pathological Tau protein conformer if present in a biological sample, especially in conjunction with the diagnosis and/or treatment of Alzheimer's disease or other tauopathy, and thus provide a diagnostic for Alzheimer's disease and other Tau pathologies. The antibody-based molecules of the present invention have particular utility as diagnostic markers for, Alzheimer's disease and related tauopathies and as pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of such conditions.

The invention is directed to methods of treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies, via the administration of antibodies having specificity to abnormal forms of tau protein, the antibodies showing no binding and/or reactivity to a normal tau protein and being administered under conditions and in amounts effective to prevent or treat Alzheimer's disease or other tauopathies. In certain embodiments, the antibodies are selective for soluble truncated tau protein truncated at (i) its C-terminus after the glutamic acid residue Glu391, or (ii) at the aspartic acid residue Asp421, or (iii) at its N-terminus at the aspartic acid residue Asp13, or (iv) a combination of (i)-(iii). Further aspects of the invention are directed to the administration of an immunogen comprising an abnormal tau, preferably a soluble truncated tau.

The present invention relates to a method for identifying ?T-cell (or ?T-cell) receptors chains or parts thereof that mediate an anti-tumor or anti-infection response by identifying amino acid sequences comprising ?T-cells (or ?T-cell) receptors chains or parts thereof that are shared between different donors.

The instant disclosure provides chimeric polypeptides which modulate various cellular processes following a cleavage event induced upon binding of a specific binding member of the polypeptide with its binding partner. Methods of using chimeric polypeptides to modulate cellular functions, including e.g., induction of gene expression, are also provided. Nucleic acids encoding the subject chimeric polypeptides and associated expression cassettes and vectors as well as cells that contain such nucleic acids and/or expression cassettes and vectors are provided. Also provided, are methods of treating a subject using the described components and methods as well as kits for practicing the subject methods.

The present invention provides an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof with binding specificity for human interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein (IL1RAP) wherein the antibody or antigen-binding fragment is capable of inhibiting the binding of antibody CAN04 to human IL1RAP. The invention further provides the use of such antibodies or an antigen-binding fragments in the treatment and/or diagnosis of IL-1 associated diseases and conditions, including cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia and melanoma.

The present invention relates to antibody molecules and functional fragments thereof, capable of binding to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF?), to processes for their production, and to their therapeutic uses.

Provided is a long-acting PCSK9-specific binding protein and application thereof. Provided is an MV072 protein with unique complementarity-determining regions, i.e., a binding protein specifically binding to proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9). The protein can specifically bind to PCSK9, effectively inhibit the function of PCSK9 and reduce plasma LDL cholesterol level. Further provided is an application of the binding protein in treating diseases related to or influenced by the function of PCSK9.

The present invention relates to a novel polypeptide having affinity for proteins partially including a CH1-CL domain forming a non-native three-dimensional structure and capable of being suitably used for detecting, immobilizing, or removing these proteins and relates to use of the polypeptide. Specifically, disclosed are a polypeptide consisting of an amino acid sequence represented by any one of the following formulas 1 to 3: (1) P-Q-x-I-x-L-x-[IL]-[NT]-[YW] (SEQ ID NO: 1), (2) Y-D-P-E-T-G-T-W-P-Q-x-I-x-L-x-[IL]-[NT]-[YW] (SEQ ID NO: 4), and (3) PN-S-G-G-G-G-S-Y-D-P-E-T-G-T-W-P-Q-x-I-x-L-x-[IL]-[NT]-[YW] (SEQ ID NO: 7) (wherein x represents an amino acid residue; and brackets represent any one of the amino acid residues within the brackets), and a method of using the polypeptide to detect, purify, or remove a protein partially including a CH1-CL domain forming a non-native three-dimensional structure.

Provided herein are various embodiments relating to antibodies that bind LILRB2. Anti-LILRB2 antibodies can be used in methods to treat disease, for example, cancer.
