  • Patent number: 8431380
    Abstract: The invention relates to the discovery of novel soluble neutral active Hyaluronidase Glycoproteins (sHASEGP's), methods of manufacture, and their use to facilitate administration of other molecules or to alleviate glycosaminoglycan associated pathologies. Minimally active polypeptide domains of the soluble, neutral active sHASEGP domains are described that include asparagine-linked sugar moieties required for a functional neutral active hyaluronidase domain. Included are modified amino-terminal leader peptides that enhance secretion of sHASEGP. The invention further comprises sialated and pegylated forms of a recombinant sHASEGP to enhance stability and serum pharmacokinetics over naturally occurring slaughterhouse enzymes. Further described are suitable formulations of a substantially purified recombinant sHASEGP glycoprotein derived from a eukaryotic cell that generate the proper glycosylation required for its optimal activity.

  • Patent number: 8381262
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards detecting and reporting use by a domain of a message authentication mechanism, such as DomainKeys (DK), and/or DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), and enabling subsequent blocking of messages based, in part, on its usage. When a message is received by an inbound message server, a message source is determined for the message. In one embodiment, the message source is a domain name associated with the sender of the message. Statistics are recorded about the message, including the message source, whether the message is suspect, includes a forged source identifier, employs DK/DKIM message authentication, and the like. The reports may then be sent to various message sources to enable them to determine the extent of use of DK/DKIM message authentication, and to selectively block, re-direct, or forward the messages based, in part, on the use of DK/DKIM message authentication mechanism.

  • Patent number: 8364766
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards classifying messages as spam using a two phased approach. The first phase employs a statistical classifier to classify messages based on message content. The second phase targets specific message types to capture dynamic characteristics of the messages and identify spam messages using a token frequency based approach. A client component receives messages and sends them to the statistical classifier, which determines a probability that a message belongs to a particular type of class. The statistical classifier further provides other information about a message, including, a token list, and token thresholds. The message class, token list, and thresholds are provided to the second phase where a number of spam tokens in a given message for a given message class are determined. Based on the threshold, the client component then determines whether the message is spam or non-spam.
