7 results about "Cooperativity" patented technology

Cooperativity is a phenomenon displayed by systems involving identical or near-identical elements, which act dependently of each other, relative to a hypothetical standard non-interacting system in which the individual elements are acting independently. One manifestation of this is enzymes or receptors that have multiple binding sites where the affinity of the binding sites for a ligand is apparently increased, positive cooperativity, or decreased, negative cooperativity, upon the binding of a ligand to a binding site. For example, when an oxygen atom binds to one of hemoglobin's four binding sites, the affinity to oxygen of the three remaining available binding sites increases; i.e. oxygen is more likely to bind to a hemoglobin bound to one oxygen than to an unbound hemoglobin. This is referred to as cooperative binding.

Sensing base material for driving ordered distribution of dioxin in spatial confinement and preparation method of sensing base material

The invention discloses a sensing base material for driving ordered distribution of dioxin in a spatial confinement range and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing an MOF matrix based on a binary mixed ligand, directionally regulating and controlling a vertical pore channel, hydrophobically modifying-CF3, and regulating and controlling competitive coordination doping. The invention provides a triple strategy of'mixed ligand + post-modification + defect control 'based on a synergistic effect of'gradient modification + vertical confinement'. Through the strategy, the performance is obviously improved in the adsorption application of a typical dioxin compound 2, 3, 7, 8-TCDD. Meanwhile, the material prepared by the invention can effectively drive ordered distribution of 2, 3, 7, 8-TCDD in a vertical pore channel, and provides a key basic material for stable SERS (Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering) sensing analysis.

Allosteric modulators of inhibitory immune receptor complexes

This disclosure relates to an immunoglobulin single variable domain (ISVD)-containing modulator that allosterically binds to a three-dimensional (3D) epitope of a protein complex comprising at least one inhibitory immune receptor and at least one corresponding ligand. The modulator regulates cooperativity within such complexes, thereby affecting the binding affinity and downstream signaling pathways. Specifically, the allosteric modulator of this invention induces positive cooperativity in immunoinhibitory receptor-ligand complexes, thus suppressing immune responses in a spatiotemporally restricted manner. Accordingly, these allosteric modulators are useful as therapeutic agents for inflammatory diseases, such as autoimmune diseases, allergic diseases, or graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Moreover, this disclosure pertains to methods for identifying, selecting, and producing said allosteric modulators.

Display of molecules on silently genetically encoded nanoscale carriers for determining synergistic molecular interactions

The present application provides a method of producing a “liquid” array of ligand (such as glycan) modified bacteriophage where the ligand modification is encoded genetically within the bacteriophage genome. This method will allow for the determination of the ligand binding profile of biomacromolecules and cells. Furthermore the method allows the elucidation of ligand-protein interactions where ligand binding is co-operative and synergistic.

A method for identifying positive synergistic effect mixed insulation gas based on atomic charge distribution

A method for identifying positive cooperating effects in mixed insulating gases based on atomic charge distribution is proposed. This invention addresses the problem that current methods for determining the type of cooperating effects in mixed gases require experimental basis, resulting in high costs and time consumption. A stable structure is constructed for gas molecules A and B, and their interaction configurations. The wave functions of the two gas molecules and the wave functions of the interaction configurations are calculated in relation to the Boltzmann distribution ratio. The electronegativity of the two gas molecules is calculated based on their wave functions. The corresponding atomic charge distributions are calculated based on the wave functions of the three molecules in a neutral state. A linear weighted value of the charge transfer amount of each interaction configuration is calculated based on the Boltzmann distribution ratio. The charge transfer direction is analyzed based on the electronegativity of the two gas molecules and the linear weighted value of each interaction configuration. If the interaction configuration exhibits a characteristic of electron transfer to the less electronegative gas molecule, it is a positive cooperating effect; otherwise, it is a cooperating effect.
