Patent number: 12642864Abstract: Provided herein are novel antibody-agent conjugates formed by the introduction of methionine residues to antibody scaffold light or heavy chains at select positions, followed by conjugation of the agent to the methionine, for example, by oxaziridine chemistries. Methionine substitutions at the targeted positions enable highly efficient functionalization to form very stable conjugates, including conjugates suitable for in vivo use. The positions were identified for the trastuzumab and other related scaffolds which can be engineered for affinity to any target antigen. The conjugates include ADCs and detections agents. Also disclosed are novel oxaziridine reagents for conjugation to methionines in proteins.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2019Date of Patent: June 2, 2026Assignee: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIAInventors: James Wells, Hai Tran, Susanna Elledge

Patent number: 12147489Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for dynamically determining a server for enrollment with a management system. An example method can include receiving user input at an application executing on a user device, such as a portal application that provides access to and authentication for other applications through a catalogue of application icons. If the user input includes a first URL but that URL produces an error when used in conjunction with extensions associated with a management server, the application can automatically use extensions associated with an application-support server. The application can then retrieve a second URL from the application-support server and use it for performing enrollment steps at the management server. The enrollment steps can include authenticating the user at an identity service and determining the user's group ID for enrollment, for example.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2021Date of Patent: November 19, 2024Assignee: Omnissa, LLCInventors: Raghavendra Mummadi, David Jablonski, Gerard T.
