Engineering proteins to bind small molecules presents a challenge as daunting as drug discovery, for both hinge upon our understanding of receptor-ligand molecular recognition. However, powerful techniques from combinatorial molecular biology can be used to rapidly select artificial receptors. While traditionally researchers have relied upon antibody technologies as a source of new binding proteins, the lipocalin scaffold has recently emerged as an adaptable receptor for small molecule binding. 'Anticalins', engineered lipocalin variants, offer some advantages over traditional antibody technology and illuminate features of molecular recognition between receptors and small molecule ligands. 相似文献

Summary: Environmentally responsive hydrogels composed of poly(methacrylic acid-g-ethylene glycol) (P(MAA-g-EG)) have shown promise for oral insulin delivery due to their pH responsive complexation behavior. A series of hydrogel formulations were polymerized with varying amounts of crosslinker and varying monomer volume fraction. The mesh size of the network depended primarily on pH, varying from 8.0 to 27.2 nm. Insulin loading efficiency varied directly with crosslink density, ranging from 42.7 to 84.9% of available insulin loaded into the hydrogels. The release of insulin was performed with each polymer formulation at 5 pH levels ranging from 2.7 to 6.8. Insulin release was less than 20% for all formulations tested with insulin for the duration of the 3 hour release study for all pH levels considered except when the pH was 6.8, at which point the release occurred as a burst. Loading studies performed with insulin glargine, an insulin analog with an increased pI, showed the same trends as native insulin. However, the release of insulin glargine only occurred at a pH level above that of the pI of the protein. These results indicate that hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions between the protein and P(MAA-g-EG) may strongly influence its loading and release behavior in vitro. 相似文献

Electroreduction of Eu(ClO4)3 and Eu2(SO4)3 has been studied at electrochemically polished
\textBi( 01[`1] ) {\text{Bi}}\left( {01\bar{1}} \right) single-crystal electrode in an acidic HClO4 or H2SO4 (pH ~3) aqueous solution with LiClO4 or Na2SO4 additions as a surface inactive electrolyte. The Eu3+ cations electroreduction rate depends on the electrode potential applied and the concentration of the supporting electrolyte
as well as the concentration of the Eu3+ ions. At the more negative electrode potentials than the zero charge potential (zcp), the diffusion current plateaus were
observed. The values of the rate constant for the heterogeneous reaction calculated at zcp are independent of the base electrolyte
concentration studied. Analysis of the kinetic data corrected for the electrical double-layer effect shows that the coincidence
of the corrected Tafel plots can be achieved, assuming that the effective charge of a reactant (+1.6) is significantly lower
than it would be expected (z
A = +3). 相似文献

We inertially inject and study the contents of optically trappable aqueous nanodroplets (hydrosomes) emulsified in a perfluorinated matrix. A new piezoelectric actuated device for production of single hydrosomes on demand is introduced. Hydrosomes containing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) were injected, optically trapped, and held at the focus of an excitation laser in a confocal microscope, and single-molecule photobleaching events were observed. The rotational diffusion time of EGFP in trapped hydrosomes was measured using time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy. In free solution, the mean rotational diffusion time was determined to be 13.8 +/- 0.1 ns at 3 microM and 14.0 +/- 0.2 ns at 10 microM. In hydrosomes, the mean rotational diffusion time was similar and determined to be 12.6 +/- 1.0 ns at 3 microM and 15.5 +/- 1.6 ns at 10 microM. We conclude that the rotational motion inside the nanodroplets is consistent with rotation in free solution and that the protein therefore does not aggregate at the water-oil interface. Protein can be confined in hydrosomes with high efficiency using this technique, which provides an alternative to surface attachment or lipid encapsulation and opens up new avenues of research using single molecules contained in fluid nanovolumes. 相似文献
