Abstract: The invention provides methods of screening agents, conjugates or conjugate moieties, linked or linkable to agents, for capacity to be transported as substrates through the PEPT2 transporter. The invention also provides methods of treatment involving delivery of agents that either alone, or as a result of linkage to a conjugate moiety, are substrates of the PEPT2 transporter. The invention also provides conjugates comprising a pharmaceutical agent which is linked to a conjugate moiety that is a substrate for a PEPT2 transporter.

Abstract: Described are peptides and peptide mimetics that bind to and activate the thrombopoietin receptor. Such peptides and peptide mimetics are useful in methods for treating hematological disorders and particularly, thrombocytopenia resulting from chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or bone marrow transfusions as well as in diagnostic methods employing labeled peptides and peptide mimetics.

Abstract: Means for simultaneous parallel sequence analysis of a large number of biological polymer macromolecules. Apparatus and methods may use fluorescent labels in repetitive chemistry to determine terminal manomers on solid phase immobilized polymers. Reagents which specifically recognize terminal manomers are used to label polymers at defined positions on a solid substrate.

Abstract: Reagents and methods for detecting target proteins in a sample are provided. The reagents include a replicable genetic package, a protein displayed on an exterior surface of the package that is expressed from a heterologous nucleic acid borne by the package, and one or more antibodies complexed with the expressed protein and which have an open binding site for a target protein. Thus, a segment of the nucleic acid encodes for an epitope that is shared by the expressed polypeptide and the target protein. The reagents can be utilized individually or as part of a library or an array to bind target proteins within protein samples to form one or more complexes. By determining the sequence of the segment of the heterologous nucleic acid of a package within a complex, one can identify the target protein since the segment encodes for an epitope that is shared by the expressed and target proteins.
