  • Patent number: 10787497
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cancer treatment composition for inhibiting angiogenesis, and a preparation method therefor. An angiogenesis inhibitor according to the present invention is a cancer treatment composition comprising a fusion protein comprising a vascular endothelial growth factor-binding domain of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1) and a b1 domain of neuropilin-1 (NRP1). The novel fusion protein is an angiogenesis inhibitor for blocking the binding of VEGF to a receptor in the cell membrane, and has an effect of inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells and the growth and metastasis of cancer. In addition, the fusion protein can be used as an anti-cancer agent and exhibits an effective anti-cancer effect at a lower dose than that of a conventional angiogenesis inhibitor.

  • Patent number: 10118971
    Abstract: The present invention provides a protein or antibody in which, of a pair of hydrophobic amino acids selected from within a hydrophobic interaction site of the protein, one hydrophobic amino acid is transformed into a substance having a positive electrical charge and the other hydrophobic amino acid is transformed into a substance having a negative electrical charge, and electrostatic interaction is introduced within the hydrophobic interaction site of the protein by means of the positive charge and the negative charge. The present invention also provides a method for preparing the protein or antibody, and a method for measuring the degree of coupling between a heavy chain and a light chain, using the antibody. The protein or antibody in accordance with to the present invention has a low contamination by a homodimer or a monomer, and thus a heterodimer can be obtained in high purity.
