Abstract: Provided herein are a vector, a genetically modified bacterium including the vector, methods of making the bacterium, methods of using the bacterium, and kits including the bacterium. The vector includes a coding region encoding at least one antimicrobial peptide, and the antimicrobial peptide includes at least one lysin.

Abstract: CD19 variants, methods of identifying CD19 variants, and methods of using such CD19 variants, e.g., for treating cancer, are described.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the invention provide helix sequences that have affinity for Death Receptor 5 (DR5). Certain embodiments of the invention provide an isolated anti-DR5 polypeptide (e.g., affibody for DR5) that modulates the activity and/or conformation of DR5. Certain embodiments of the invention provide methods of noncompetitively inhibiting DR5 and/or treating a fatty liver disorder.
