20110059161 | TARGETED DELIVERY USING TISSUE-SPECIFIC PEPTIDOMIMETIC LIGANDS - Compositions and methods for tissue-specific targeted delivery of therapeutic agents through the use of tissue-specific peptidomimetic ligands are disclosed herein. The ligand comprises a composition of formula A-scaffold-A′ and one or more hydrophobic anchors covalently linked to the scaffold. The A and A′ compounds linked to the scaffold comprise monovalent peptidomimetic compounds wherein each monovalent peptidomimetic compound is selected from the group consisting of fragments IKs, GKs, IDs, GSs, GTs, VSs, TKs, KTs, ARs, KIs, KEs, AEs, GRs, YSs, IRs, and morpholino. | 03-10-2011 |
20110081403 | HISTONE OCTAMERS FOR INCREASED NUCLEIC ACID TRANSFER - The present invention provides reconstituted histone octamers with multiple modifications (e.g. acetylation of all histones and trimethylation of histone H3K4) assembled onto plasmids for increased transcription post-transfection using our unique bi-lamellar invaginated liposomes (BIVs) to more effectively recruit the transcriptional machinery of human cancer cells post-transfection and substantially increase the production of therapeutic gene products. | 04-07-2011 |
20120231537 | Highly Pure Plasmid DNA Preparations - The present disclosure generally relates to highly pure plasmid compositions having low, or undetectable, levels of colanic acid and other contaminants made by a process that comprises purifying plasmid DNA by chromatography, treating the purified plasmid DNA with a polypeptide that digests colanic acid under conditions that digest the colonic acid, and separating the plasmid DNA from the digested colonic acid. | 09-13-2012 |
20130129813 | TARGETED DELIVERY USING TISSUE-SPECIFIC PEPTIDOMIMETIC LIGANDS - Compositions and methods for tissue-specific targeted delivery of therapeutic agents through the use of tissue-specific peptidomimetic ligands are disclosed herein. The ligand comprises a composition of formula A-scaffold-A′ and one or more hydrophobic anchors covalently linked to the scaffold.

20130210118 | POLYPEPTIDES HAVING COLANIC ACID-DEGRADING ACTIVITY - The present disclosure generally relates to polypeptides having colanic acid-degrading activity and methods of using the same. Polynucleotides encoding such polypeptides are also described. The polypeptides may be used, for example, in processes for degrading colanic acid, processes for the removal of endotoxins from biological samples, and processes for purifying plasmid DNA. | 08-15-2013 |
20130309752 | Polypeptides Having Colanic Acid-Degrading Activity - The present disclosure generally relates to polypeptides having colanic acid-degrading activity and methods of using the same. Polynucleotides encoding such polypeptides are also described. The polypeptides may be used, for example, in processes for degrading colanic acid, processes for the removal of endotoxins from biological samples, and processes for purifying plasmid DNA. | 11-21-2013 |
20140093888 | HIGHLY PURE PLASMID DNA PREPARATIONS - The present disclosure generally relates to highly pure plasmid compositions having low, or undetectable, levels of colanic acid and other contaminants made by a process that includes the steps of obtaining a crude lysate of a plasmid DNA from a bacteria that makes colanic acid; treating the partially purified or purified plasmid DNA with a polypeptide that digests colanic acid under conditions that digest the colanic acid; and purifying the plasmid DNA from the digested colanic acid and the colanic acid degrading enzyme by one or more chromatography steps. | 04-03-2014 |
20140349389 | PROCESSES FOR THE DIGESTION OF COLANIC ACID - The present disclosure generally relates to processes employing polypeptides having colanic acid-degrading activity. The processes generally involve contacting a biological material with a polypeptide capable of digesting colanic acid. Additional process steps, such as chromatographic separation steps, are also described. | 11-27-2014 |
