Publication number: 20180280542Abstract: A system for monitoring biological processes in vivo is provided. The system comprises an implantable luciferase biosensor comprising luciferase in a biocompatible matrix and a caged luciferin probe. The caged luciferin probe can be administered to a living subject and upon encountering a biological activity, e.g., enzyme activity, the caged luciferin probe releases free luciferin which can then interact with the biosensor luciferase to generate light. The light can then be detected and/or measured by a light detector. Compositions, methods and kits related to the system are provided herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2018Publication date: October 4, 2018Inventors: Elena A. Goun, Aurélien Godinat, Aleksey Yevtodiyenko

Patent number: 8653238Abstract: Conjugates of a cargo molecule with a transporter molecule are disclosed, where the cargo molecule and the transporter molecule are linked covalently by a releasable linker. The cargo of the conjugate can be a biologically active agent or a reporter molecule. The transporter modulates the transport of the cargo across a biological barrier (e.g., a cell membrane) compared to the transport of the unconjugated cargo. Releasable linkers suitable for rapid and facile conjugation to various types of cargo and transporters are also disclosed, along with methods for using the linkers in the synthesis of conjugates.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2007Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior UniversityInventors: Paul A. Wender, Elena A. Goun, Lisa R. Jones
