  • Publication number: 20220264256
    Abstract: Techniques for tracking an evacuation of a location in an environment that utilizes physical tokens to prove physical presence at the location are presented. The techniques include receiving data representing of subordinates of an evacuation facilitator; receiving physical token based location status information for at least one of the subordinates, where the physical token based location status information is based on electronic readings of the physical tokens; determining based on the physical token based location status information, a physical presence status at the location for the at least one of the subordinates; receiving evacuation status information for each of the at least one of the subordinates that has a physical presence status that indicates a presence at the location; and recording the evacuation status information for each of the at least one of the subordinates that has a physical presence status that indicates a presence at the location.

  • Publication number: 20220089690
    Abstract: Described herein are methods for large scale production of antibodies using a cell-free protein synthesis system. The methods include expressing a heavy chain (HC) polypeptide of an antibody from a nucleic acid encoding the heavy chain in a cell-free bacterial extract in the presence of a light chain (LC) polypeptide, thereby producing the antibody. The methods are performed at a large scale that is suitable for commercial production of antibodies, for example in a reaction volume equal to or greater than about 10 liters, for example about 10 to about 25,000 liters. The methods result in increased yields per unit volume of properly folded and assembled antibodies as opposed to synthesizing the light chain in the same cell-free protein synthesis system as the heavy chain polypeptide.

  • Publication number: 20210340207
    Abstract: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) conjugates comprising at least one or more amino acid substitutions that bias binding to the IL-2 receptor ??c dimer over binding the IL-2 receptor ???c trimer and a non-natural amino acid at or near the N-terminus conjugated to a water-soluble polymer are described. The IL-2 conjugates are useful for treatment and prevention of cell proliferation and cancer in a patient.
