Abstract
The present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-base beverage suitable for consumption by a subject with Coeliac's disease. In particular, the present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-based beverage with low levels of hordeins. Also provided are barley plants which produce grain that can be used in the methods of the invention.
The present invention relates to the identification of a profile of antibodies in an individual with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) wherein the existence of this profile is indicative that the individual will achieve or has achieved a functional cure (FC). The present invention further identifies an epitope profile or profile on Hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) which represents targets for antibodies which enable a level of clearance to be achieved to reach a functional cure for CHB. Level of occupancy of the epitope profile is indicative that a functional cure will or will not be achieved.

The present invention relates generally to biomarkers of neurological conditions including monitoring disease progression and the clinical severity of symptoms. More particularly, the present invention provides an assay to facilitate diagnosis and monitoring of progression of neurological conditions and treatment response and to identify targets for therapeutic intervention. Kits and assays for diagnosis and identification of medicaments also form part of the present invention.
The present invention relates generally to diagnostic assays, therapeutic protocols and medicinal predictor model validation. More particularly, genetic tests are provided which determine the suitability of a medicament in the treatment or prophylaxis of a neurological condition. Even more particularly, the present invention provides genetic assays to measure the potential for, or likelihood of, a subject having a positive or adverse treatment response to a neurological medicament. The present invention is particularly useful in the practice of personalized medicine.

ANTIVIRAL RESISTANCE MUTANTS AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF
The present invention relates generally to viral variants exhibiting reduced sensitivity to agents such as nucleoside or nucleotide analogs or other DNA polymerase antagonists and/or reduced interactivity with immunological reagents. More particularly, the present invention is directed to hepatitis B virus (HBV) variants exhibiting complete or partial resistance to nucleoside or nucleotide analogs or other DNA polymerase antagonists and/or reduced interactivity with antibodies to viral surface components including reduced sensitivity to these antibodies. The present invention further contemplates assays for detecting such viral variants, which assays are useful in monitoring anti-viral therapeutic regimens and in developing new or modified vaccines directed against viral agents and in particular HBV variants. The present invention also contemplates the use of the viral variants to screen for and/or develop or design agents capable of inhibiting infection, replication and/or release of the virus.
