In certain embodiments, this disclosure relates to conjugates comprising GM-CSF and IL-7 and uses related thereto, e.g., enhancing the adaptive immune system. Typically, the GM-CSF and IL-7 are connected by a polymer linker, e.g., polypeptide. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to nucleic acids encoding these polypeptide conjugates, vectors comprising nucleic acid encoding polypeptide conjugates, and protein expression systems comprising these vectors such as infectious viral particles and host cells comprising such nucleic acids.

The present invention is directed to a method of inactivating virus that is present during production of a polypeptide of interest. In particular, the present invention is directed to a method of on-column virus inactivation using a low pH and high salt wash solution that effectively inactivates viruses with minimum recovery loss of the polypeptide.

An object of the present invention is to provide a separation system and a separation material for efficiently separating white blood cells or mononuclear cells from a biological fluid containing blood cell components. White blood cells or mononuclear cells can be efficiently separated by contacting a biological fluid containing blood cell components with a separation material having an average fiber diameter of at least 2.0 μm but not more than 6.0 μm and an air permeability coefficient M of at least 6.2 but not more than 35 to capture white blood cells on the separation material, and recovering the captured white blood cells or mononuclear cells using a detachment solution.

Provided herein are engineered red blood cells expressing rare blood antigen group profiles, and methods of making use the same, are described. Also provided are recombinant reagent red blood cells that express or lack the expression of at least one protein (e.g., a blood group antigen) on its surface and uses thereof.
