摘要:
Modified therapeutic proteins are provided. In particular modified Factor X polypeptides, which includes the Factor X zymogen, Factor Xa and other forms of Factor X, and uses thereof are provided.
摘要:
Modified Factor IX (FIX) polypeptides and uses thereof are provided. Such modified FIX polypeptides include FIXa and other forms of FIX. Among the modified FIX polypeptides provided are those that have altered activities, typically altered procoagulant activity, including increased procoagulant activities. Hence, such modified polypeptides are therapeutics.

摘要:
Methods for identifying modified proteases with modified substrate specificity or other properties are provided. The methods screen candidate and modified proteases by contacting them with a substrate, such as a serpin, an alpha macroglobulins or a p35 family protein or modified serpins and modified p35 family members or modified alpha macroglobulins, that, upon cleavage of the substrate, traps the protease by forming a stable complex. Also provided are modified proteases.

摘要:
Provided are methods for and compounds for modulating the complement system. In particular, compounds are provided that inhibit complement activation and compounds are provided that promote complement activation. The compounds are therapeutics by virtue of their effects on the complement system. Hence, the compounds that inhibit complement activation can be used for treatment of ischemic and reperfusion disorders, including myocardial infarction and stroke, sepsis, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases and diseases with an inflammatory component, including Alzheimer's Disease and other neurodegenerative disorder.
摘要:
Provided herein are antibodies, fragments and derivatives of an antibody containing a binding domain thereof, where the antibody, fragment or derivative specifically binds to a single chain protease domain of a type II transmembrane serine protease (MTSP). Methods using the antibodies to modulate the protease activity of an MTSP are provided. Also provided are antibodies that bind to MTSPs designated MTSP3 and MTSP4 and to a form of an MTSP designated MTSP6.
摘要:
Provided herein is are polypeptides that include the protease domain of a type II transmembrane serine protease (MTSP) as a single chain. Methods using the polypeptides to identify compounds that modulate the protease activity of an MTSP are provided. Also provided are MTSPs designated MTSP3 and MTSP4 and a form of an MTSP designated MTSP6.

摘要:
Provided herein are endotheliases and portions, particularly, the protease domains, and nucleic acids that encode the endotheliases. The endotheliases are transmembrane proteases expressed in endothelial cells. The nucleic acids and encoded proteins and protease domain portions thereof are used in a variety of prognostic, diagnostic, therapeutic and screening methods, including methods for screening for compounds that modulate angiogenesis.
