  • Thermostable and Long-Circulating Albumin-Conjugated Arthrobacter Globiformis Urate Oxidase
    pharmaceutics Article Thermostable and Long-Circulating Albumin-Conjugated Arthrobacter globiformis Urate Oxidase Byungseop Yang and Inchan Kwon * School of Materials Science and Engineering, Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), Gwangju 61005, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-62-715-2312 Abstract: Urate oxidase derived from Aspergillus flavus has been investigated as a treatment for tumor lysis syndrome, hyperuricemia, and gout. However, its long-term use is limited owing to potential immunogenicity, low thermostability, and short circulation time in vivo. Recently, urate oxidase isolated from Arthrobacter globiformis (AgUox) has been reported to be thermostable and less immunogenic than the Aspergillus-derived urate oxidase. Conjugation of human serum albumin (HSA) to therapeutic proteins has become a promising strategy to prolong circulation time in vivo. To develop a thermostable and long-circulating urate oxidase, we investigated the site-specific conjugation of HSA to AgUox based on site-specific incorporation of a clickable non-natural amino acid (frTet) and an inverse electron demand Diels–Alder reaction. We selected 14 sites for frTet incorporation using the ROSETTA design, a computational stability prediction program, among which AgUox containing frTet at position 196 (Ag12) exhibited enzymatic activity and thermostability comparable to those of wild-type AgUox. Furthermore, Ag12 exhibited a high HSA conjugation yield without compromising the enzymatic activity, generating well-defined HSA-conjugated AgUox (Ag12-HSA). In mice, the serum half-life of Ag12-HSA was approximately 29 h, which was roughly Citation: Yang, B.; Kwon, I. 17-fold longer than that of wild-type AgUox. Altogether, this novel formulated AgUox may hold Thermostable and Long-Circulating enhanced therapeutic efficacy for several diseases.

  • Disclosing the Essentiality of Ribose-5-Phosphate Isomerase B In
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Disclosing the essentiality of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase B in Trypanosomatids Received: 04 January 2016 Joana Faria1,2, Inês Loureiro1,2, Nuno Santarém1,2, Pedro Cecílio1,2, Sandra Macedo-Ribeiro2,3, Accepted: 10 May 2016 Joana Tavares1,2,* & Anabela Cordeiro-da-Silva1,2,4,* Published: 27 May 2016 Ribose-5-phosphate isomerase (RPI) belongs to the non-oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway, catalysing the inter-conversion of D-ribose-5-phosphate and D-ribulose-5-phosphate. Trypanosomatids encode a type B RPI, whereas humans have a structurally unrelated type A, making RPIB worthy of exploration as a potential drug target. Null mutant generation in Leishmania infantum was only possible when an episomal copy of RPIB gene was provided, and the latter was retained both in vitro and in vivo in the absence of drug pressure. This suggests the gene is essential for parasite survival. Importantly, the inability to remove the second allele of RPIB gene in sKO mutants complemented with an episomal copy of RPIB carrying a mutation that abolishes isomerase activity suggests the essentiality is due to its metabolic function. In vitro, sKO promastigotes exhibited no defect in growth, metacyclogenesis or macrophage infection, however, an impairment in intracellular amastigotes’ replication was observed. Additionally, mice infected with sKO mutants rescued by RPIB complementation had a reduced parasite burden in the liver. Likewise, Trypanosoma brucei is resistant to complete RPIB gene removal and mice infected with sKO mutants showed prolonged survival upon infection. Taken together our results genetically validate RPIB as a potential drug target in trypanosomatids.

Received: 8 October 2010; in revised form: 13 October 2010 / Accepted: 15 October 2010 / Published: 20 October 2010 Abstract: Staining of two-dimensional gels is a primary concern in proteomic studies using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis with respect to the number of proteins analyzed, the accuracy of spot quantification and reproducibility. In this review article, the efficiency of the most widely used dyes was investigated. Visible dyes (Coomassie blue and silver nitrate), fluorescent dyes (Sypro Ruby, Deep Purple) and cyanine labeled methods were compared. Keywords: protein staining; fluorescent dyes; two-dimensional electrophoresis; proteomics 1. Introduction Protein separation by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) is largely used in proteomic approaches because of both high resolution and the availability of powerful image analysis software for gel comparison and compatibility with subsequent protein characterization by mass spectrometry [1]. For these various aspects, the selection of the protein staining procedure is of major importance [2]. Based on two independent biochemical characteristics of proteins, 2DE combines isoelectric focusing, which separates proteins according to their isoelectric point, and SDS-PAGE, which separates them further according to their molecular mass (Figure 1, step 2). The next typical steps of the flow of gel-based proteomics are spots visualization and evaluation (Figure 1, step 3), expression analysis, and finally protein identification by mass spectrometry (Figure 1, step 4).

The relative percentage distribution of the C apolipoproteins was calculated and compared with that from 12 normolipidaemic and 12 'lipid-matched' controls. In the gout patients apolipoprotein CII (apo CII) represented 19-6% of the VLDL C proteins and the CII/CIII2 ratio was 0-57. In the normolipidaemic controls apo CII represented 28*8% and in the lipid-matched controls 33*1% of VLDL apo C, and the CII/C0112 ratio approached one in each control group. These differences were significant. This suggests that a reduction in VLDL apo CII may predispose to the hypertriglyceridaemia that is commonly found in patients with gout. copyright.
