Abstract: A license plate frame device may include a frame which may be movably coupled to a back plate. The frame may comprise an elongate support having a first end and a second end. A first vertical support may be coupled to the first end of the elongate support, and a second vertical support may be coupled to the second end of the elongate support. Preferably, the vertical supports may be opposingly positioned to each other. A channel for receiving a license plate may be formed between the back plate and the frame. One or more light elements may be disposed on the frame. The device may be moved between a first position, in which upper portions of the back plate may be relatively closer to the elongate support, and a second position, in which upper portions of the back plate may be relatively farther from the elongate support.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for the determination of the structure of biomolecular targets, as well as the site and nature of the interaction between ligands and biomolecular targets. The present invention also provides methods for the determination of the relative affinity of a ligand for the biomolecular target it interacts with. Also provided are methods for screening ligand or combinatorial libraries of compounds against one or more than one biological target molecules. The methods of the invention also allow determination of the relative binding affinity of combinatorial and other compounds for a biomolecular target. The present invention further provides methods for the use of mass modifying tags for screening multiple biomolecular targets. In a preferred embodiment, ligands which have great specificity and affinity for molecular interaction sites on biomolecules, especially RNA can be identified.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for the identification ligand compounds that bind to target molecules such as proteins or structured RNA with as little as millimolar (mM) affinity using mass spectrometry. The methods may be used to determine the mode of binding interaction between two or more of these ligand compounds to the target as well as their relative affinities. Also provided are methods for designing compounds having greater affinity to a target molecule by identifying two or more ligands using mass spectrometry methods of the invention and linking the ligands together to form a novel compound.

Abstract: Compositions comprising first and second oligomers are provided wherein at least a portion of the first oligomer is capable of hybridizing with at least a portion of the second oligomer, at least a portion of the first oligomer is complementary to and capable of hybridizing to a selected target nucleic acid, and at least one of the first or second oligomers includes a modified sugar and/or backbone modification. In some embodiments the modification is a 2? substituent group on a sugar moiety that is not H or OH. Oligomer/protein compositions are also provided comprising an oligomer complementary to and capable of hybridizing to a selected target nucleic acid and at least one protein comprising at least a portion of an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), wherein at least one nucleotide of the oligomer has a modified sugar and/or backbone modification.

In some embodiments the modification is a 2?-F substituent group on a sugar moiety. Oligomer/protein compositions are also provided comprising an oligomer complementary to and capable of hybridizing to a selected target nucleic acid and at least one protein comprising at least a portion of an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), wherein at least one nucleoside of the oligomer has a modified sugar and/or backbone modification.

Abstract: Method for detecting and identifying unknown bioagents, including bacteria, viruses and the like, by a combination of nucleic acid amplification and molecular weight determination using primers which hybridize to conserved sequence regions of nucleic acids derived from a bioagent and which bracket variable sequence regions that uniquely identify the bioagent. The result is a “base composition signature” (BCS) which is then matched against a database of base composition signatures, by which the bioagent is identified.

Abstract: The present invention provides double stranded compositions wherein one of the strands is useful in, for example, influencing the preferential loading the opposite strand into the RISC (or cleavage) complex. In particular, the present invention provides oligomeric compounds that comprise chemical modifications in at least one of the strands to drive loading of the opposite strand into the RISC (or cleavage) complex. Such modifications can be used to increase potency of duplex constructs that have been modified to enhance stability. Examples of chemical modifications that drive loading of the second strand include, but are not limited to, MOE (2?-O(CH2)2OCH3), 2?-O-methyl, -ethyl, -propyl, and —N-methylacetamide. Such modifications can be distributed throughout the strand, or placed at the 5? and/or 3? ends to make a gapmer motif on the sense strand. The activity of the 4?-thio gapmer RNA antisense strand can be improved by incorporating alternating MOE or MOE gapmer motif into the sense strand.
