Abstract: Provided herein are methods for design of engineered polypeptides that recapitulate molecular structure features of a predetermined portion of several reference protein structures, e.g., related antibody epitopes or protein binding sites. A Machine Learning (ML) model may be used to generate engineered polypeptides. After substituting target residues for corresponding residues in other reference structures in the same scaffold, the scaffolds with each set of target residues may be filtered by structural comparison to identify generalized scaffolds. Generalized scaffolds may be improved by screening libraries of polypeptides.

Abstract: The Fleetwide Adaptive Rate Limiting Gatekeeper Apparatuses, Processes and Systems (“FARLG”) transforms API call permission request, API call result request datastructure/inputs via FARLG components into API call permission response, API call result response outputs. An API call permission request datastructure associated with an API call of an application structured to identify an API and a set of scopes is obtained. A retry-after interval is determined for each scope in the set of scopes, in which existence of a retry-after interval for a scope indicates that the API previously returned a throttled response for the scope. A wait duration associated with the API call is determined as the maximum retry-after interval across retry-after intervals that exist for the set of scopes. An API call permission response datastructure structured to specify the wait duration is provided.

Abstract: An apparatus can include a needle with a distal tip for insertion into a vessel of a patient, the needle defining an outer surface. The apparatus can include a catheter with a distal end and an inner surface that defines a lumen through which the needle extends. The apparatus can include a longitudinally extending stiffener positioned between the outer surface of the needle and the inner surface of the catheter. The stiffener can be movable to a distally advanced position relative to the needle to deploy the catheter and can be removable from the catheter along with the needle while in the distally advanced position. The stiffener can include a region of weakness at which the stiffener is predisposed to bend, which is closer to the distal tip of the needle than to the distal tip of the stiffener when the stiffener is in the distally advanced position.
