  • Patent number: 12290563
    Abstract: The invention pertains to host cells for producing a bioconjugate of an E. coli O18 antigen polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein. The host cells are characterized in that they comprise modified Wzy O-antigen polymerases with specific combinations of amino acid substitutions in one or more of positions 199, 377 and 395 as compared to the wild type Wzy O-antigen polymerase of SEQ ID NO: 1, which modified Wzy O-antigen polymerases improve the yield and glycosylation pattern of the O18 bioconjugates produced by the host cells. The invention further relates to methods wherein the host cells are used to produce a bioconjugate of an E. coli O18 antigen polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein, compositions comprising these bioconjugates, including multivalent compositions comprising bioconjugates of additional O antigen polysaccharide-serotypes.

  • Patent number: 12170148
    Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for a learning platform that employs machine learning to identify patterns that describe meaningful subgroups of patients associated with a particular disease, distinct characteristics of each subgroup, and implications of belonging to a specific subgroup in terms of developing into a more severe disease state for patient journey mapping. The system may include a mapping server that includes a medical-event embedding engine that embeds electronic health records into vectors, a clustering engine that identifies clusters of patients with similar patient journeys by operating on the output of the medical-event embedding engine, and a cluster profiling engine that identifies distinguishing medical events for each identified cluster by operating on the output of the clustering engine.
