Abstract: Provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising an active agent which is a soluble VEGFR-3 trap molecule. Also provided herein are therapeutic methods and uses involving the pharmaceutical compositions, in particular ocular diseases and disorders, and port devices comprising the pharmaceutical compositions.

Abstract: A sequencing system includes an automated sequencing instrument adapted to determine variant calls for one or more extracted polynucleotide samples with a performance of at least 98.5% raw read accuracy and a total instrument run time in a range of 16 hours to 22 hours to determine variant calls when sequencing 6 cfTNA extracted polynucleotide samples using a targeted assay with one nucleic acid pool per sample.

Abstract: Methods are provided for determining the methylation status of GC-rich templates. The methods include use of GC reference standards that allow simultaneous characterization of methylation status and CGG repeat length. The methods are useful for detecting genotypes associated with GC-rich repeats, including Fragile X Syndrome.

Abstract: The present invention provides a reconstituted complex including EED, EZH2 and SUZ12 wherein the reconstituted complex has histone methyltransferase (HMTase) activity for lysine 27 of histone H3 (H3-K27). The reconstituted complex may further include RbAp48, AEBP2 or both. Also disclosed are methods of producing the reconstituted complex, methods of identifying compounds that inhibit the HTMase activity of the reconstituted complex and methods of identifying candidate compounds for treating cancer. Reagents and kits including the reconstituted complex are further provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides a native or reconstituted complex comprising Bmi1 and/or Ring1 and/or Ring2, wherein the complex has ubiquitin E3 ligase activity. Optionally, the complex further comprises HPH2 and/or HPC3. Also disclosed are methods of producing the reconstituted complex, methods of identifying compounds that modulate the ubiquitin E3 ligase activity of the native or reconstituted complex, and methods of identifying candidate compounds for treating cancer. Kits for determining modulation of protein ubiquitination and/or for ubiquitinating a target substrate are further provided.
