A series of mini-antibodies (monovalent and bivalent Fabs) targeting the conserved internal trimeric coiled-coil of the N-heptad repeat (N-HR) of HIV-1 gp41 has been previously constructed and reported. Crystal structures of two closely related monovalent Fabs, one (Fab 8066) broadly neutralizing across a wide panel of HIV-1 subtype B and C viruses, and the other (Fab 8062) non-neutralizing, re...

Abstract Introduction Determining next level of care for burn patients is a difficult task the entire medical team. Secondary to nature injury, often do not have social or economic support required return their prior function. The Functional Assessment Burns (FAB) score has been shown an objective measure determine functional independence and predictor discharge outcomes in adults. However, it ...

A retrospective study of 45 patients of acute leukaemia in children (15 years age), in relation to FAB classification, is presented. Acute lymphoblastic leukaemias (ALL) were commoner than acute myeloid leukaemias (AML), with an ALL:AML ratio of 4.63:1. Amongst ALL, L1 was the most frequent type (59%), followed by L2 (35%) and L3 (5.4%), respectively. FAB types M2, M3, M4 and M5 were diagnosed ...

Time-resolved fluorescence experiments were performed to investigate the dynamic aspects of the antigen-binding fragment (Fab) of a high-affinity monoclonal antibody (4-4-20) which binds the fluorescent hapten fluorescein. Both the unliganded Fab and a complex of the Fab with a nonfluorescent analog of fluorescein (fluoresceinamine, FLM) were examined. A fluorescence polarization probe [5-[[2-[...

Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a highly contagious pathogen that causes severe disease in dogs and wildlife. Previously, a panel of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (MAb) raised against CPV was characterized. An antibody fragment (Fab) of MAb E was found to neutralize the virus at low molar ratios. Using recent advances in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we determined the structure of CPV in ...

Two classes of Escherichia coli unsaturated fatty acid auxotrophs, which are complementary both in vivo and in vitro, have been utilized to study unsaturated fatty acid synthesis. /3 Hydroxydecanoyl thioester dehydrase, which catalyzes the first committed reaction in the unsaturated fatty acid synthetic pathway, is defective in one class, fab A. The defect in the second class, fab B, was unknow...

in this paper, we generalize some transfer theorems.~in particular, we derive one of the main results of gagola(contemp math 524:49--60, 2010) from our results.
