Abstract: This disclosure relates to a modified ?-helical bundle cytokine, with reduced activity via an ?-helical bundle cytokine receptor, wherein the ?-helical bundle cytokine is specifically delivered to target cells. Preferably, the ?-helical bundle cytokine is a mutant, more preferably it is a mutant interferon, with low affinity to the interferon receptor, wherein the mutant interferon is specifically delivered to target cells. The targeting is realized by fusion of the modified ?-helical bundle cytokine to a targeting moiety, preferably an antibody. This disclosure relates further to the use of such targeted modified ?-helical bundle cytokine to treat diseases. A preferred embodiment is the use of a targeted mutant interferon, to treat diseases, preferably viral diseases and tumors.

Abstract: New compounds of the general formula Xm-G-CLn are described as well as methods for their production and use in the analysis, detection and purification of target molecules. These constitute multivalent chelator-compounds with an affinity-tag binding to metal-chelator-complexes which can selectively modify and/or immobilize target molecules by a multitude of probes or functional units.

Abstract: A device for carrying out and/or detecting affinity reactions comprises at least one surface or boundary surface on which an affinity reaction can take place, and at least one polymer bound to the surface. According to the invention, this device is obtainable by bonding the polymer to the surface in its pure phase, i e. essentially free of solvents. The polymer is preferably a terminally homo- or heterosubstituted bifunctional polymer, a corresponding polyalkylene glycol, in particular a polyethylene glycol, being preferred. The surface can be made of a metal oxide, in particular silicon dioxide. Before bonding the polymer, an activation of the surface, preferably by introducing functional groups by means of a silanization, can be effected.
