  • Patent number: 10257156
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards overprovisioning IP addresses among a plurality of traffic management devices (TMDs). A plurality of IP addresses may be distributed among a plurality of available TMDs. A corresponding mirror TMD may be determined for each IP address. The corresponding mirror TMD for an IP address may be different than the available TMD currently associated with the IP address. In various embodiments, connections associated with each IP address may be mirrored at their corresponding mirror TMDs. The available TMDs may be employed to perform traffic management tasks on received packets based on at least a destination IP address of the received packets and the IP addresses associated with the available TMDs. If a TMD becomes unavailable, the IP addresses associated with the unavailable TMD may be redistributed to at least one remaining available TMD.

  • Patent number: 9221915
    Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies including human antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof that bind to the extracellular domain (ECD) of activin receptor-like, kinase-1 (ALK-1) and that function to abrogate the ALK-1/TGF-beta-1/Smad1 signaling pathway. The invention also relates to heavy and light chain immunoglobulins derived from human anti-ALK-1 antibodies and nucleic acid molecules encoding such immunoglobulins. The present invention also relates to methods of making human anti-ALK-1 antibodies, compositions comprising these antibodies and methods of using the antibodies and compositions. The invention also relates to transgenic animals or plants comprising nucleic acid molecules of the present invention.

  • Publication number: 20020132319
    Abstract: The identification, isolation and modification of human ERAB or HADH2 is described. A crystal structure of ERAB or HADH2 is described which may be used in the discovery, identification and characterization of inhibitors or modulators of ERAB or HADH2. This structure provides a three-dimensional description of binding sites of ERAB or HADH2 for structure-based design of inhibitors or modulators thereof as therapeutic agents, for example in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease).
