Trans-membrane-antibody induced inhibition of apoptosis

Cell suicide (apoptosis) is associated with pathogenesis, for example, it is the major cause for the loss of neurons in Alzheimer's disease. Caspase-3 is critically involved in the pathway of apoptosis. Superantibody (SAT)-trans-membrane technology has been used to produce antibodies against the caspase enzyme in an effort to inhibit apoptosis in living cells. The advantage of using trans-membrane antibodies as apoptosis inhibitors is their specific target recognition in the cell and their lower toxicity compared to conventional apoptosis inhibitors. It is shown that a MTS-transport-peptide modified monoclonal anti-caspase-3 antibody reduces actinomycin D-induced apoptosis and cleavage of spectrin in living cells. These results indicate that antibodies conjugated to a membrane transporter peptide have a therapeutic potential to inhibit apoptosis in a variety of diseases.

Gene capable of regulating and controlling inhibition of vitamin C fermented strain acid production during acid stress

The invention relates to a gene capable of regulating and controlling inhibition of vitamin C fermented strain acid production during acid stress and belongs to the technical fields of basic research on vitamin C prepared by fermentation and biological engineering. The key gene for regulating and controlling yield reduction of acid stress induced 2-Keto-L-Gulonic acid (2-KLG) in the production strains is determined, so a metabolic engineering strategy with high pertinence is generated. The expression condition of genes, in particular membrane transport protein genes, of acid-forming bacteria in the vitamin C mixed bacteria fermented system is analyzed by an expression profile chip technology. Compared with ketogenic gulonic acid bacteria subjected to single cultivation, the ketogenic gulonic acid bacteria subjected to mixed bacteria cultivation have 45 upregulated membrane transport protein genes and 15 down regulated membrane transport protein genes. The notable thing is that: 7 iron ion transport protein genes are inhibited to express. After acid stress, the iron ion transport protein genes are over expressed. During fermentation, the iron ions are added to inhibit mixed bacteria to ferment and generate acid. The result shows that the iron ion transport protein exerts reverse action in the process of yield reduction of 2-KLG generated by the acid stress induced mixed bacteria fermentation.
