  • Patent number: 11993615
    Abstract: Tunable thermochromic materials comprise a metal salt with a varying proportion of two different anions and an organic ligand. Partial substitution via doping during the initial synthesis with a macro-structurally similar (generating an isostructural material) yet chemically different anion creates a material with altered thermochromic properties. For example, in bromide-doped bis(N,N?-diethylethylenediamine)nickel(II)) tetrafluoroborate; both the tetrafluoroborate (BF4-) and bromide (Br—) derivatives are isostructural. Substitution of BF4- for Br— causes a decrease in the materials' thermochromic transition temperature by approximately 10° C.

    Abstract: The invention provides a method for producing a peptide which comprises the following steps (1) and (2): (1) a step of condensing a C-protected amino acid or a C-protected peptide to a C-terminal of an N-protected amino acid or an N-protected peptide represented by the formula (I): wherein Y represents an amino acid in which a C-terminal is unprotected or a peptide in which a C-terminal is unprotected, R1, R2 and R3 each independently represent an aliphatic hydrocarbon group which may have a substituent(s), a total number of the carbon atoms in the R1R2R3Si group is 10 or more, and the R1R2R3SiOC(O) group is bonded to the N-terminal in Y, and (2) a step of removing the protective group at the C-terminal of the peptide obtained in step (1).

  • Patent number: 11993630
    Abstract: Herein is reported a method for the purification of a protein comprising erythropoietin and a single poly (ethylene glycol) residue from reaction by-products or not reacted starting material by a cation exchange chromatography method. It has been found that by employing a cation exchange Toyopearl® SP-650 chromatography material and employing a second wash step with an increased pH value compared to the first wash step a fusion protein of erythropoietin and a single poly (ethylene glycol) residue can be obtained in a single step with high purity and yield and suitability for large scale applications.

  • Patent number: 11993631
    Abstract: A large-scale process is described herein for preparing a cyclic peptide as described, comprising solid phase peptide synthesis of a linear peptide and cleaving it from the resin; oxidizing cysteine residues to form an intramolecular disulfide bond; and isolating the cyclic peptide, wherein: (i) coupling uses diisopropylcarbodiimide and ethyl cyanohydroxyiminoacetate and/or N-hydroxybenzotriazole; (ii) cleaving comprises contacting the peptide with a solution comprising TFA and dithioerythritol and/or dithiothreitol; (iii) the peptide is precipitated after cleaving without prior concentration of the peptide by evaporation; (iv) oxidizing comprises contacting an aqueous solution comprising at least 5 mg/mL peptide with hydrogen peroxide; (v) isolating comprises loading the peptide on a reverse phase chromatography at up to 40 grams/kg column, and elution from the column; (vi) isolating comprises lyophilization, followed by grinding the peptide; and/or (vii) substitution of the resin is at least 0.

  • Patent number: 11993635
    Abstract: This invention relates to the field of genetic engineering. Specifically, the invention relates to the construction of operons to produce biologically active agents. For example, operons may be constructed to produce agents that control the function of biochemical pathway proteins (e.g., protein phosphatases, kinases and/or proteases). Such agents may include inhibitors and modulators that may be used in studying or controlling phosphatase function associated with abnormalities in a phosphatase pathway or expression level. Fusion proteins, such as light activated protein phosphatases, may be genetically encoded and expressed as photoswitchable phosphatases. Systems are provided for use in controlling phosphatase function within living cells or in identifying small molecule inhibitors/activator/modulator molecules of protein phosphatases associated with cell signaling.
