53 results about "Connexon" patented technology

In biology, a connexon, also known as a connexin hemichannel, is an assembly of six proteins called connexins that form the pore for a gap junction between the cytoplasm of two adjacent cells. This channel allows for bidirectional flow of ions and signaling molecules. The connexon is the hemichannel supplied by a cell on one side of the junction; two connexons from opposing cells normally come together to form the complete intercellular gap junction channel. However, in some cells, the hemichannel itself is active as a conduit between the cytoplasm and the extracellular space, allowing the transference of ions and small molecules lower than 1-2 KDa. Little is known about this function of connexons besides the new evidence suggesting their key role in intracellular signaling.

Preparation and application of cathepsin B activation type targeted anti-tumor polypeptide

The invention discloses a novel cathepsin B activation type targeted anti-tumor polypeptide m(KLA)-iRGD, the molecular weight is 2570, and the amino acid sequence is D(KLAKLAKKLAKLA)KGGCRGDKGPDC. The polypeptide is formed by KLA peptide and iRGD peptide through flexible connexon Gly-Gly. The sequence of the KLA peptide is KLAKLAKKLAKLAK, and amino acids of the KLAKLAKKLAKLA sequence at the N terminal of the polypeptide are all D-amino acids. The sequence of the iRGD peptide is CRGDKGPDC. The polypeptide has the advantage that the tumor targeted peptide iRGD and the apoptosis promoting peptide KLA are connected into the new polypeptide m(KLA)-iRGD for the first time. The polypeptide m(KLA)-iRGD can be specifically combined with alphaVbeta3 and NRP-1 receptors and enter tumor cells, mitochondrial apoptosis is initiated after the polypeptide is activated by intracellular cathepsin B (CTSB), tumor cells are selectively killed, and growth and migration of tumors are remarkably inhibited. Under the same concentration, a polypeptide m(KLA)-iRGD comparison peptide has higher tumor targeting and higher capacity of inhibiting tumor growth and migration. Meanwhile, the polypeptide m(KLA)-iRGD has no obvious toxicity on mouse weight and vital organs, and a solid foundation is laid for further clinical research and application.

Preparation method of nucleic acid targeted capture sequencing library based on long chain molecule inversion probe

The invention discloses a preparation method of a nucleic acid targeted capture sequencing library based on a long chain molecule inversion probe. The preparation method comprises the following steps:a, synthesizing a capture probe A, a capture probe B and a connexon C; b, adding phosphorylated probes A and B and the connexon C into a ligase reaction system, simultaneously adding DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) ligase so as to connect the A with the B under the bridging effect of the C; c, combining multiple connection mixtures for different target areas, and separating and purifying the connected product by denaturing electrophoresis or a nucleic acid purification kit to obtain the long chain molecular inversion probe; d, mixing the long chain molecular inversion probe with DNA or cDNA of ato-be-tested sample, hybridizing, adding DNA polymerase, DNA ligase, dNTP and a Mg2<+>-containing buffer solution into a buffer solution, extending the long chain molecular inversion probe and formingclosed molecules under the action of the DNA ligase; e, adding exonuclease to degrade non-cyclic DNA molecules; f) carrying out PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) amplification by using primers corresponding to a common sequence region of the long-chain molecular inversion probe to obtain the sequencing library of a targeted region.

Bioconjugation method for IgG4 antibody

The invention discloses a bioconjugation method for an IgG4 antibody. The bioconjugation method for the IgG4 antibody comprises the following steps of: step 1, reduction: the IgG4 is reduced, so fourpairs of interchain disulfide bonds in the IgG4 antibody are all made open; step 2, partial oxidation: the four pairs of open interchain disulfide bonds in the IgG4 antibody are partially oxidized, and the number of the free mercapto groups of the obtained IgG4 antibody reach the targeted average conjugation number of 4+/-1; step 3, a coupling reaction: bioconjugation is conducted by adopting thefree mercapto groups of the IgG4 antibody and a connexon-conjugate complex; and step 4, purification of bioconjugation products: excess conjugates in the bioconjugation products which are obtained inthe step 3 are removed so as to obtain the final product. The bioconjugation product mixture obtained by using the method has better product distribution, the content of the conjugation products witha linker number of 0 is less than 5%, and the content of the conjugation products with a linker number of 8 is less than 15%; after routine purification is conducted on the obtained bioconjugation product mixture, the final product can be applied to animals or clinical trials directly.

Intermediate for preparing antibody and drug conjugate (ADC) and preparation method and application thereof

The invention relates to an intermediate (a combination of a connexon and a load) for preparing an antibody and a drug conjugate (ADC) and a preparation method and application thereof. Specifically, the combination of the connexon and the load has a structure shown as a formula I, the compound shown as the formula I can be applied to coupling of high-hydrophobicity compound loads such as paclitaxel (PTX') and the like which are not easy to couple, and the prepared ADC molecule has good hydrophilicity and thermal stability and can reach a relatively high drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) value. According to the intermediate, the Trop-2 targeting ADC prepared by using the connexon represented by the formula I shows the strong in vitro drug effect in the low expression cell line in the Trop-2 compared to the Trop-2 targeting ADC with the effective loads of MMAE and SN38, and shows the strong tumor inhibition ability in the mouse in vivo xenotransplantation tumor model, and the bystander effect is proved. Experimental results show that the problem that the paclitaxel compound is used as an ADC effective load can be solved by utilizing the hydrophilic connexon, and ADC molecules which are expected to be used for treating various human cancers are obtained.
