  • Publication number: 20220363763
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an anti-PD-L1/anti-LAG3 bispecific antibody capable to effectively block the interactions between PD-L1 and its receptor PD-1 and between LAG3 and its ligand (e.g., a MHC class II molecule and FGL1). The bispecific antibody may have high binding affinity to both of a PD-L1 protein (e.g., a human PD-L1 protein) and a LAG3 protein (e.g., a human LAG3 protein). Also provided are antibodies and fragments that have specificity to the PD-L1 or LAG3 protein alone, or antibodies and fragments having additional specificity to one or more other antigens.

  • Publication number: 20060281147
    Abstract: A recombinant thrombin-like enzyme batroxobin expressed by yeast, a production method thereof, and use of the batroxobin as a hemostatic agent or antithrombotic agent is disclosed. In order to express recombinant thrombin-like enzyme, an expression vector is prepared by inserting cDNA encoding the enzyme, the transformed cell is prepared by introducing the expression vector into the cell, the transformed cell then is incubated and the recombinant thrombin-like enzyme is obtained from the cell. The recombinant thrombin-like enzyme may be usefully used as a hemostatic agent because the enzyme effectively decrease bleeding time and blood coagulation time and does not affect various blood coagulation factors.

  • Patent number: 7033788
    Abstract: The present invention relates to Saxatilin, a protein derived from the venom of a Korean snake, Agkistrodon saxatilis emelianov, a process for preparing Saxatilin, and pharmaceutical application of the same as anti-platelet aggregation agent and anti-tumor agent. The present inventors purified Saxatilin from the venom of Agkistrodon saxatilis emelianov, cloned its cDNA, and prepared recombinant Saxatilin by culturing a microorganism transformed with an expression vector containing the cDNA. Saxatilin effectively suppresses the platelet aggregation and angiogenesis of tumor cells, which makes possible its practical application as an active ingredient of anti-platelet agent and anti-tumor agent.

  • Patent number: 6770457
    Abstract: The present invention relates to process of purifying the angiogensis inhibitor proteins expressed in E. coli and to the use of recombinant kringle 1-3 (; greenstatin) purified by the above process as a angiogenesis inhibitor and an anticancer agent. Particularly, according to the process of purifying the protein, the angiogenesis inhibitor proteins overexpressed are solubilized, refolded, and purified as a pure and active form. The greenstatin purified by the process specifically suppresses endothelial cell proliferation, anaiogenesis, and the growth of lung cancer, skin cancer, and brain tumor. Therefore, the process of this invention is applicable to the mass-production of angiogenesis inhibitor proteins such as greenstatin which is useful for the treatment of glaucoma, retinopathy, and cancers.
