Scalable production and biophysical characterization of an enzyme cocktail derived from human red blood cells

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) play a critical role in oxygen and carbon dioxide transport, which is facilitated by RBC‐encapsulated hemoglobin (Hb) and carbonic anhydrase (CA). In addition, RBCs are constantly exposed to oxidative stress due to the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during Hb auto‐oxidation.

Ethical Issues Involved in Solid Organ Xenotransplantation

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xenotransplantation (specifically, genetically modified pig‐to‐human transplant of organs, tissues, or cells) clinical trials are set to begin in the United States after decades of pre‐clinical studies and recent decedent and compassionate use investigations. This article provides a primer on the key ethical issues attendant with this emerging

Human Protein Z as the Second Known Heme‐Binding Protein from the Endogenous Blood Coagulation Inhibitor System

open access: yesChemBioChem, EarlyView.
Protein Z is a vitamin K‐dependent anticoagulant with elusive molecular functions. Herein, it is shown that heme binds to protein Z and induces conformational changes. One histidine‐based heme‐binding motif is identified. High heme‐binding affinity and functional effects are demonstrated on protein level. These findings shed new light on the structural
