We have found that tryptophan residues are in fact often also labeled with this reagent. This off-target labeling is only observed at very low levels in protein bioconjugation but remains under the radar due to the low relative abundance of tryptophan compared to tyrosines in natural proteins, and because of the low availability and ac- cessibility of their nucleophilic positions at the solvent-exposed protein surface. Moreover, because TAD-Trp adducts are known to be readily thermoreversible, it can be challenging to detect these physiologically stable but thermally labile modi- fications using several MS/MS techniques. We have found that fully solvent-exposed tryptophan side chains are kinetically favored over tyrosines under almost all conditions, and this selectivity can even be further enhanced by modifying the pH of the aqueous buffer to effect selective Trp-labeling.

  • Structural Basis of IL-23 Antagonism by an Alphabody Protein Scaffold
    ARTICLE Received 5 Feb 2014 | Accepted 11 Sep 2014 | Published 30 Oct 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms6237 OPEN Structural basis of IL-23 antagonism by an Alphabody protein scaffold Johan Desmet1,*, Kenneth Verstraete2,*, Yehudi Bloch2, Eric Lorent1, Yurong Wen2,3, Bart Devreese3, Karen Vandenbroucke1, Stefan Loverix1, Thore Hettmann1, Sabrina Deroo1, Klaartje Somers1, Paula Henderikx1, Ignace Lasters1 & Savvas N. Savvides2 Protein scaffolds can provide a promising alternative to antibodies for various biomedical and biotechnological applications, including therapeutics. Here we describe the design and development of the Alphabody, a protein scaffold featuring a single-chain antiparallel triple-helix coiled-coil fold. We report affinity-matured Alphabodies with favourable physicochemical properties that can specifically neutralize human interleukin (IL)-23, a pivotal therapeutic target in autoimmune inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. The crystal structure of human IL-23 in complex with an affinity-matured Alphabody reveals how the variable interhelical groove of the scaffold uniquely targets a large epitope on the p19 subunit of IL-23 to harness fully the hydrophobic and hydrogen-bonding potential of tryptophan and tyrosine residues contributed by p19 and the Alphabody, respectively. Thus, Alphabodies are suitable for targeting protein–protein interfaces of therapeutic importance and can be tailored to interrogate desired design and binding-mode principles via efficient selection and affinity-maturation strategies. 1 COMPLIX N.V., Technology Park 4, 9052 Ghent, Belgium. 2 Unit for Structural Biology, Laboratory for Protein Biochemistry and Biomolecular Engineering (L-ProBE), Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology, Ghent University, K.L.

  • Press Release Complix Extends Series a Financing to EUR 7 Million With
    Paris, 14 January 2011 Press release Complix extends Series A financing to EUR 7 million with Crédit Agricole Private Equity Complix announces that it has raised an additional EUR 2 million from leading life sciences investor Crédit Agricole Private Equity (Paris, France) as part of an extension of its Series A equity financing round, bringing the total amount of this round to EUR 7 million. Emmanuelle Coutanceau, PhD, from Crédit Agricole Private Equity is joining the Complix Board of Directors. In June of 2010 the Company already announced the successful completion of a EUR 5 million first closing of the Series A round, with Vesalius Biocapital (Luxembourg) and LRM (Belgium) as co-lead investors. Complix was founded two years ago and is focused on the discovery and development of Alphabodies™, a novel and proprietary class of protein drugs with exciting therapeutic potential. The present Series A financing will allow Complix to build a preclinical portfolio of Alphabody™ based products for treatment of autoimmune – and viral diseases, and to develop its lead product up to regulatory filing for initiation of clinical trials in the second half of 2012. Alphabodies™ are small, extremely stable proteins with distinct structural and functional properties, offering significant advantages over existing protein based therapies. Alphabodies™ bind with high affinity to a wide range of disease targets and are particularly suited to address certain target types that are difficult to access with antibodies or other protein scaffolds. Commenting on this financing, Dr Mark Vaeck, CEO of Complix, stated: “We are delighted with this additional financing from a high-quality life sciences investor like Crédit Agricole Private Equity.
