  • Publication number: 20170001195
    Abstract: A method of fabricating an elastomeric structure, comprising: forming a first elastomeric layer on top of a first micromachined mold, the first micromachined mold having a first raised protrusion which forms a first recess extending along a bottom surface of the first elastomeric layer; forming a second elastomeric layer on top of a second micromachined mold, the second micromachined mold having a second raised protrusion which forms a second recess extending along a bottom surface of the second elastomeric layer; bonding the bottom surface of the second elastomeric layer onto a top surface of the first elastomeric layer such that a control channel forms in the second recess between the first and second elastomeric layers; and positioning the first elastomeric layer on top of a planar substrate such that a flow channel forms in the first recess between the first elastomeric layer and the planar substrate.

  • Patent number: 8759087
    Abstract: A target internalized within a cell (and a binding member that specifically binds thereto) can be identified in an efficient manner by segregating (or substantially segregating) genetic material encoding the binding member from genetic material encoding a binding member that binds to a target that is not internalized. This can be achieved by employing a display library of binding members having a genotype/phenotype linkage via a non-fusion protein format, whereby genetic material encoding non-in-ternalized targets can be segregated (or substantially segregated) without lysing the cells. Internalized genetic material subsequently can be isolated and amplified.

  • Patent number: 8551733
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods to produce mixtures of exogenous proteins in single cells. Preferably said exogenous proteins are heteromeric and multimeric proteins, such as immunoglobulins. The method enables the controlled expression of proteins, thereby allowing the correct formation and assembly of multimeric proteins, such as immunoglobulins.

  • Patent number: 8273688
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the preparation and use of a collection of antibody heavy chain complementarity determining region 3 (HCDR3) members, where diversity of the collection is a function of the length of the HCDR3 members. The diversity of the collection of HCDR3 regions substantially represents the natural amino acid distribution of HCDR3 in the human repertoire. This natural amino acid distribution can be represented by biasing the complete random distribution of amino acids, accordingly, in the HCDR3 encoding DNA sequence by using trinucleotide mutagenesis (TRIM) technology. A collection of HCDR3 members of the invention each can be comprised within a variable region of an antibody (or fragment thereof) to form a library of synthetic antibodies or antibody fragments. The invention also provides nucleic acid molecules encoding such diverse collection and methods of making and using the same.
