Hybrid phosphoinositide phospholipids: compositions and uses

The methods and compositions disclosed herein concern the synthesis of a novel class of “two-headed” phospholipid-phosphoinositide hybrids possessing a carbon backbone, such as 2,3-diacylthreitol, erythritol or a synthetic module. The second phospholipid head group allows introduction of a biochemical or chemical moiety in a position orthogonal in space to those occupied by the phosphoinositide head group and the two acyl chains. The diacyl moieties allow for the incorporation of Pea-PIP2 into a lipid bilayer, while the Ptdlns(4,5)P2 moiety in the aqueous layer is specifically recognized by lipid binding proteins. In alternative embodiments of the invention, reporters, for example biotin, fluorophores and / or spin labels, are attached to the free amino group of the head groups of such molecules to specifically target the reporters to the lipid-water interface.

Artificial tear formulation

Provided by the present invention are formulations suitable for application to mammalian eyes which contain a lipid binding protein and a polar lipid, present as a soluble complex in an aqueous electrolyte. The formulations described have shear-thinning (non-Newtonian viscosity) and surface tension properties to natural tears and are therefore useful as artificial tear substitutes for the treatment of dry eyes (e.g. keratoconjunctivitis sicca) and useful in ophthalmic applications in general.

Glycoconjugation of polypeptides using oligosaccharyltransferases

InactiveCN102037004AFactor VIIPeptide/protein ingredientsSialic acidBacillosamine
The current invention provides polypeptides and polypeptide conjugates that include an exogenous N-linked glycosylation sequence. The N-linked glycosylation sequence is preferably a substrate for an oligosaccharyltransferase (e.g., bacterial PgIB), which can catalyze the transfer of a glycosyl moiety from a lipid-bound glycosyl donor molecule (e.g., a lipid-pyrophosphate-linked glycosyl moiety) to an asparagine (N) residue of the glycosylation sequence. In one example, the asparagine residue is part of an exogenous N-linked glycosylation sequence of the invention. The invention further provides methods of making the polypeptide conjugates that include contacting a polypeptide having an N-linked glycosylation sequence of the invention and a lipid-pyrophosphate-linked glycosyl moiety (or phospholipid-linked glycosyl moiety) in the presence of an oligosaccharyltransferase under conditions sufficient for the enzyme to transfer the glycosyl moiety to an asparagine residue of the N-linked glycosylation sequence. Exemplary glycosyl moieties that can be conjugated to the glycosylation sequence include GlcNAc, GlcNH, bacillosamine, 6-hydroybacillosamine, GalNAc, GaINH, GlcNAc-GlcNAc, GlcNAc-GlcNH, GlcNAc-Gal, GlcNAc-GlcNAc-Gal-Sia, GlcNAc-Gal-Sia, GlcNAc-GlcNAc-Man, and GlcNAc-GlcNAc-Man(Man)2. The transferred glycosyl moiety is optionally modified with a modifying group, such as a polymer (e.g., PEG). In one example, the modified glycosyl moiety is a GIcNAc or a sialic acid moiety.
