  • Publication number: 20250257331
    Abstract: The invention discloses a flavonoid glycoside glycosyltransferase LbUGT71BX1 in laportea bulbifera as well as the coding gene and the use thereof. The amino acid sequence of the flavonoid glycoside glycosyltransferase LbUGT71BX1 is shown as SEQ ID NO: 2. The nucleotide sequence of the coding gene of the flavonoid glycoside glycosyltransferase LbUGT71BX1 is shown as SEQ ID NO: 1. According to the invention, on the basis of relevant results of the second-generation transcriptome and the third-generation full-length transcriptome sequencing of the laportea bulbifera, the last-step key enzyme LbUGT71BX1 for the synthesis of the flavonoid glycoside in the laportea bulbifera is screened and identified by using a reverse genetics method, filling the terminal blank of the biosynthesis pathway of the flavonoid glycoside in the laportea bulbifera.

  • Publication number: 20250250337
    Abstract: Provided herein are trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins comprising four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more target proteins, wherein a first pair of polypeptides forming the binding protein possess dual variable domains having a cross-over orientation, and wherein and a second pair of polypeptides possess a single variable domain forming a single antigen binding site. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise a binding site that binds a CD28 polypeptide, a binding site that binds a CD3 polypeptide, and a binding site that binds a third polypeptide, such as a tumor target protein. In some embodiments, the binding proteins comprise four polypeptide chains that form three antigen binding sites that specifically bind one or more HIV target proteins. The disclosure also relates to methods for making trispecific and/or trivalent binding proteins and uses of such binding proteins.

  • Publication number: 20250161481
    Abstract: Disclosed are lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery systems that specifically target T cells. The LNP delivery system comprises antibodies conjugated to the surface of the LNP, e.g., via maleimide chemistry, that target at least two T cell surface proteins, e.g., CD3 and CD28. The LNP delivery system can have a single population of LNP conjugated to either a bispecific antiCD3/antiCD28 antibody, or two monospecific antiCD3 and antiCD28 antibodies, or two populations of LNP wherein each population comprises a monospecific antibody. The payload of the LNP delivery system can be, e.g., mRNA encoding chimeric antigen receptors (CAR), a linear DNA fragment or a plasmid encoding chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) or therapeutic proteins such as antibodies, components of a gene editing systems (e.g., CRISPR-Cas), small molecules, antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), and any combination thereof, either encapsulated in the LNP or attached to its surface (e.g., conjugated).
