Abstract: This invention is directed to phosphoroamidate and phosphorodiamidate derivatives including the compounds of formula (I) having the structure wherein U, V, W, Z, R1, X1, X2, and Y are defined herein. These compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds are useful in the treatment of viral infections in mammals infected by a virus in the Flaviviridae family of viruses, in particular hepatitis C virus (HCV). The compounds of this invention may be prepared by various methods known in the art of organic chemistry in general and nucleoside and nucleotide analog synthesis in particular.

Abstract: This invention is directed to compounds of Formula (I) having the structure that are useful in the treatment of viral infections in mammals, particularly in humans, mediated, at least in part, by a virus in the Flaviviridae family of viruses.

Abstract: Phosphoramidate compounds derived from guanine bases having enhanced therapeutic potency are provided, and these compounds in particular have enhanced potency with respect to treatment of viral infections, such as hepatitis C virus. Pharmaceutical compositions, methods of preparing the compounds, and methods of using the compounds and compositions to treat viral infections are also provided.

Abstract: This invention is directed to novel compounds of formula (I) having the structure (I) wherein U, V, W, Z, R1, X1, X2, and Y are defined herein. The compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds are useful in the treatment of viral infections in mammals mediated, at least in part, by a virus in the Flaviviridae family of viruses, in particular hepatitis C virus (HCV).

Abstract: Phosphoramidate compounds derived from guanine bases having enhanced therapeutic potency are provided, and these compounds in particular have enhanced potency with respect to treatment of viral infections, such as hepatitis C virus. Pharmaceutical compositions, methods of preparing the compounds, and methods of using the compounds and compositions to treat viral infections are also provided.

Abstract: An isolated and/or purified Sdr surface protein from S. capitis and nucleic acids encoding them are provided which includes the SdrX protein which possesses collagen binding activites and the SdrZL protein which possesses SdrZ-like properties. The Sdr surface proteins from S. capitis can be used in pharmaceutical compositions to treat and prevent S. capitis infectionm and can also be used in vaccines and to raise antibodies which can treat or prevent such infections. Because the SdrX protein has been shown to have collagen binding abilities, antibodies to SdrX will have the ability to inhibit or prevent the ability of S. capitis to bind to collagen.

Abstract: A method for treating or preventing infections from yeast of the Candida species is provided wherein an immunoglobulin composition containing high titers of antibodies to staphylococcal adhesins ClfA and SdrG is administered in an amount effective to inhibit the growth and progression of Candidial infections. The compositions and methods of the present invention are advantageous in that they can be used to treat both staphylococcal and Candidial infections at the same time, and they are particularly effective in treating or preventing late-onset sepsis in neonates.

Abstract: Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies are provided which recognize and bind to the SdrG protein of S. epidermidis, and more particularly to antibodies which recognize specific domains of the SdrG protein, namely the SdrG N1N2N3 protein (amino acids 50-597), the SdrG N2N3 protein (amino acids 273-597) and a truncated version of N2N3 identified as SdrG TR2 (amino acids 273-577).

Abstract: The present invention provides improved methods for detection of recombinant proteins. The fusion proteins of the invention comprise a capture tag sequence, a detection tag sequence, and polypeptide sequence of interest.
