Abstract:
Provided herein are methods and compositions for treating a subject suffering from a deficiency in arylsulfatase A in the CNS. The methods include systemic administration of a bifunctional fusion antibody comprising an antibody to a human insulin receptor and an arylsulfatase A.
Abstract:
The invention features compositions and methods for site-specific modification of proteins by incorporation of an aldehyde tag. Enzymatic modification at a sulfatase motif of the aldehyde tag through action of a formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) generates a formylglycine (FGly) residue. The aldehyde moiety of FGly residue can be exploited as a chemical handle for site-specific attachment of a moiety of interest to a polypeptide.
Abstract:
The invention relates to biparatopic A-beta binding polypeptides and, more specifically, to biparatopic A-beta binding polypeptides comprising at least two immunoglobulin single variable domains binding to different epitopes of A-beta. The invention also relates to specific sequences of such polypeptides, methods of their production, and methods of using them, including methods of treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's Disease.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof that bind to complement Factor P and used thereof as well as combinations of anti-Factor P antibodies with antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof that bind to complement component 5 (C5).

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to the combination therapy of an afucosylated anti-CD20 antibody with a mTOR inhibitor for the treatment of cancer, especially to the combination therapy of CD20 expressing cancers with an afucosylated humanized B-Ly1 antibody and a mTOR inhibitor such as Temsirolimus or Everolimus.

Abstract:
This invention provides binding proteins, including antibodies, antibody derivatives and antibody fragments, that specifically bind a CD154 (CD40L) protein. This invention also provides a chimeric, humanized or fully human antibody, antibody derivative or antibody fragment that specifically binds to an epitope to which a humanized Fab fragment comprising a variable heavy chain sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 1 and comprising a variable light chain sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 2 specifically binds. CD154 binding proteins of this invention may elicit reduced effector function relative to a second anti-CD154 antibody. CD154 binding proteins of this invention are useful in diagnostic and therapeutic methods, such as in the treatment and prevention of diseases including those that involve undesirable immune responses that are mediated by CD154-CD40 interactions.

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for the expression and/or production of variable domains with a C-terminal extension that can be used for coupling of the variable domain to one or more further groups, residues or moieties. In the method of the invention a yield of at least 80% of variable domains with a cysteine containing C-terminal extension is obtained. Also variable domains are provided and polypeptides comprising one or more variable domains obtainable by the methods of the present invention, as well as compounds that comprise such variable domains and/or polypeptides coupled to one or more groups, residues or moieties.
