Jump Starting and Moving New Technologies to Marketplace
(2010-03)
The highway from research in the laboratory to market success has many detours and on/off ramps that are at best confusing to inventors and the populace. Success from technology-based economic development is the outcome ...
High Resolution Crystal Structure of KD-247, a Humanized Antibody that Inhibits HIV Entry [abstract]
(2010-02)
of this specificity we have solved the crystal structure of KD-247 at 1.5 Å resolution, the highest resolution structure for any humanized antibody reported to date. The present structure reveals in atomic detail the molecular boundaries of a pocket formed...
