A novel built-in adjuvant metallothionein-3 aids protein antigens to induce rapid, robust, and durable immune responses

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Adjuvants are crucial components of vaccines that can enhance and modulate antigen-specific immune responses. Herein, we reported for the first time that human metallothionein-3 (MT3), a low molecular weight cysteine-rich metal-binding protein, was a ...

Engineered microenvironments for synergistic VEGF - integrin signalling during vascularization [PDF]

, 2017
We have engineered polymer-based microenvironments that promote vasculogenesis both in vitro and in vivo through synergistic integrin-growth factor receptor signalling. Poly(ethyl acrylate) (PEA) triggers spontaneous organization of fibronectin (FN) into

Development of a high yielding expression platform for the introduction of non-natural amino acids in protein sequences

mAbs, 2020
The ability to genetically encode non-natural amino acids (nnAAs) into proteins offers an expanded tool set for protein engineering. nnAAs containing unique functional moieties have enabled the study of post-translational modifications, protein ...

Engineering antibody therapeutics

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2016
The successful introduction of antibody-based protein therapeutics into the arsenal of treatments for patients has within a few decades fostered intense innovation in the production and engineering of antibodies. Reviewed here are the methods currently used to produce antibodies along with how our knowledge of the structural and functional ...

A novel one-step approach for the construction of yeast surface display Fab antibody libraries

Microbial Cell Factories, 2018
Background Yeast surface display (YSD) has proven to be a versatile platform technology for antibody discovery. However, the construction of antibody Fab libraries typically is a tedious three-step process that involves the generation of heavy chain as ...

Plant cell packs: a scalable platform for recombinant protein production and metabolic engineering [PDF]

, 2019
Industrial plant biotechnology applications include the production of sustainable fuels, complex metabolites and recombinant proteins, but process development can be impaired by a lack of reliable and scalable screening methods. Here, we describe a rapid

Successful targeting of multidrug-resistant tumors with bispecific antibodies

mAbs
Multidrug resistance (MDR) hinders efficacious cancer chemotherapy. Overexpression of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux pump (EP) on cancer cells is a primary cause of MDR since it expels numerous anticancer drugs.

Modelling bispecific monoclonal antibody interaction with two cell membrane targets indicates the importance of surface diffusion [PDF]

, 2016
We have developed a mathematical framework for describing a bispecific monoclonal antibody interaction with two independent membrane-bound targets that are expressed on the same cell surface.

Secretion and assembly of functional mini-cellulosomes from synthetic chromosomal operons in Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824. [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) is reliant on the simultaneous enzyme production, saccharification of biomass, and fermentation of released sugars into valuable products such as butanol. Clostridial species that produce butanol are, however,

A Novel Anti-EGFR mAb Ame55 with Lower Toxicity and Better Efficacy than Cetuximab When Combined with Irinotecan

Journal of Immunology Research, 2019
To improve efficacy and minimize toxicity of EGFR inhibition treatment, we developed Ame55, a novel anti-EGFR IgG1 with lower affinity to EGFR than cetuximab (C225) from a human phage library.
