Publication number: 20240108743Abstract: A linker peptide for constructing a fusion protein. The linker peptide comprises a flexible peptide and a rigid peptide. The flexible peptide consists of one or more flexible units. The rigid peptide consists of one or more rigid units. The flexible unit comprises two or more amino acid residues selected from Gly, Ser, Ala, and Thr. The rigid unit comprises a human chorionic gonadotropin ?-subunit carboxy-terminal peptide (CTP) bearing a plurality of glycosylation sites. The linker peptide can more effectively eliminate mutual steric hindrance of two fusion molecules, decreasing a reduction/loss of polymerization or activity resulting from improper folding of an active protein or a conformational change. On the other hand, the negatively charged, highly sialylated CTP can resist renal clearance, further prolonging a half-life of a fused molecule and enhancing bioavailability of a fused protein.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Qiang LI, Yuanli LI, Si CHEN, Zhu WANG, Zhao DONG, Zirui LI, Xinlu MA, Lu YANG, Yongjuan GAO, Yuncheng ZHENG, Naichao SUN

Patent number: 11655295Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of treatment of diseases and immunology. Specifically, the present invention relates to an anti-LAG-3 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, nucleic acid molecules for encoding said antibody and fragment, and method for preparing said antibody and fragment. The anti-LAG-3 antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the present invention has high specificity and high affinity to LAG-3, can effectively block the binding of LAG-3 to MHC II and/or FGL1, and can inhibit and/or block intracellular signaling mediated by LAG-3 binding to MHC II and/or FGL1. Therefore, the present invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof, and use of the pharmaceutical composition in the preparation of drugs.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2019Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: SICHUAN KELUN-BIOTECH BIOPHARMACEUTICAL CO., LTD.Inventors: Tongtong Xue, Qiang Li, Liang Xiao, Yuncheng Zheng, Dengnian Liu, Si Chen, Yan Hu, Lichun Wang, Jingyi Wang

Publication number: 20220033476Abstract: Disclosed is a fusion protein of a mutated recombinant single-chain human coagulation factor VIII (FVIII), a preparation method therefor, and a use thereof. The fusion protein sequentially comprises, from an N-terminus to a C-terminus, a mutated single-chain human FVIII having a partially deleted B-domain, a flexible peptide linker, at least one rigid unit of a carboxyl-terminal peptide of a human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit, and a half-life prolonging moiety (preferably an IgG Fc variant). The fusion protein has a similar biological activity to a recombinant FVIII, a prolonged active half life in vivo, and better stability in vitro and in vivo, and thus improves the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of the fusion protein.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2019Publication date: February 3, 2022Inventors: Yongjuan Gao, Shixiang Jia, Yuncheng Zheng, Yingying Jin, Zhu Wang, Zhao Dong, Si Chen, Bill Nai-chau Sun, Qiang Li
