Abstract: Materials and methods for using polypeptides containing fragments and variants of the antibody(ies) or portion(s) thereof that bind CD25 to treat cancer alone or in combination with other anti-neoplastic agents.

Abstract: The present invention includes an immunogenic protein, constructs, vectors, and methods of making, comprising at least 90% amino acid identity to at least one antigenic peptide selected from: a coronavirus Receptor Binding Domain (RBD), coronavirus a Receptor Binding Motif (RBM) of a coronavirus spike protein, a coronavirus spike protein N-terminus, a nucleocapsid protein, one or more T cell epitopes from a coronavirus spike protein, or one or more T cell epitopes from a coronavirus nucleocapsid protein, or combination thereof. In one example, the at least one antigenic peptide is positioned at, at least one of, the N-terminus, the C-terminus, or in a loop region of the carrier protein or peptide tag.

Abstract: The invention concerns the use of duplex oligonucleotides about 25 to 30 base pairs to introduce site specific genetic alterations in plant cells. The oligonucleotides can be delivered by mechanical (biolistic) systems or by electroporation of plant protoplasts. Thereafter plants having the genetic alteration can be generated form the altered cells. In specific embodiments the invention concerns the alteration in the gene that encode acid invertase, UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase, polyphenol oxidase, O-methyl transferase, cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase, ACC synthase and ACC oxidase or etr-1 or homolog of etr-1, and plants having isolated point mutations in such genes.
