HIV-1 gp120-CD4-Induced Antibody Complex Elicits CD4 Binding Site-Specific Antibody Response in Mice

February 17, 2020
Author(s)
Andrey Galkin, Yajing Chen, Sijy O'Dell, Roderico Acevedo, James Steinhardt, Yimeng Wang, Richard Wilson, Chi-I Chiang, Alexander Grishaev, John Mascola, Yuxing Li
Elicitation of broadly neutralizing Ab (bNAb) responses toward the conserved HIV-1 envelope (Env) CD4 binding site (CD4bs) by vaccination is an important goal for vaccine development and yet to be achieved. The outcome of previous immunogenicity studies

Structure of the cell-binding component of the Clostridium difficile binary toxin reveals a di- heptamer macromolecular assembly

January 14, 2020
Author(s)
Xingjian Xu, Raquel Ruiz, Kaylin Adipietro, Christopher Peralta, Danya Ben-Hail, Kristen Varney, Mary Cook, Braden Roth, Paul Wilder, Thomas Cleveland, Alexander Grishaev, Heather Neu, Sarah Michel, Wenbo Yu, Dorothy Beckett, Richard Rustandi, Alex MacKerell, Amedee des Georges, Edwin Pozharski, David Weber
Targeting Clostridium difficile infection is challenging because treatment options are limited, and high recurrence rates are common. One reason for this is that hypervirulent C. difficile strains often have a binary toxin termed the C. difficile toxin, in

Implications of DNA Damage and DNA Repair on Human Diseases

January 10, 2020
Author(s)
Bryant C. Nelson, M Miral Dizdar
Cellular DNA damage is implicated in the etiology and progression of many different types of human disorders and diseases. Much of the current research in the DNA damage field is devoted towards understanding the mechanisms and biological implications of

Quantifying protein aggregation kinetics using electrospray differential mobility analysis

January 5, 2020
Author(s)
Kaleb J. Duelge, Jeremie Parot, Vincent A. Hackley, Michael R. Zachariah
Protein aggregation is a significant concern in bioprocessing and end use applications. Here the thermal aggregation kinetics of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and α-chymotrypsinogen A (α- chymo) were measured over a range of concentrations and temperatures by

Strategies for Development of a Next-Generation Protein Sequencing Platform

January 1, 2020
Author(s)
Nicholas Callahan, Jennifer A. Tullman, John Marino, Zvi Kelman
Proteomic analysis can be a critical bottleneck in cellular characterization. The current paradigm relies primarily on mass spectrometry of peptides and affinity reagents (i.e. antibodies), both of which require a priori knowledge of the sample. A non

Establishing Standards and Methods for Qualification and Validation of New Particle Measurement Technologies

November 12, 2019
Author(s)
Srivalli Telikepalli, Dean C. Ripple, Kurt D. Benkstein, Kristen L. Steffens, Michael J. Carrier, Christopher B. Montgomery
Numerous particle sizing and counting methods exist for measuring particles in the submicrometer, subvisible, and visible size range. This article will briefly describe some key aspects that need to be considered for the most commonly used methods in order

Metabolomics Test Materials for Quality Control: A Study of a Urine Materials Suite

November 7, 2019
Author(s)
Dan Bearden, David A. Sheen, Yamil Simon, Bruce A. Benner Jr., Werickson Fortunato de Carvalho Rocha, Niksa Blonder, Katrice A. Lippa, Richard Beger, Laura Schnackenberg, Jinchun Sun, Khyati Mehta, Amrita Cheema, Haiwei Gu, Ramesh Marupaka, Nagana Gowda, Daniel Raftery
There is a lack of experimental reference materials and standards for metabolomics measurements, such as urine, plasma, and other human fluid samples. Reasons include difficulties with supply, distribution, and dissemination of information about the

Selective spin inversion in solution by magic field cross polarization

November 1, 2019
Author(s)
Joel Tolman, Luke Arbogast
A pulsed element is proposed allowing the selective inversion of a single 1H nucleus, without regard to the presence of other degenerate 1H nuclei, provided that it is coupled to a heteronuclear spin with adequate chemical shift resolution in a 2D

Characterization of the internal translation initiation region in monoclonal antibodies expressed in Escherichia coli

October 11, 2019
Author(s)
Erik M. Leith, William Brad O'Dell, Na Ke, Colleen McClung, Mehmet Berkmen, Christina Bergonzo, Robert G. Brinson, Zvi Kelman
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) represent an important platform for the development of biotherapeutic products. While most mAbs are produced in mammalian cells, there are several examples of mAbs made in Escherichia coli, including therapeutic fragments. When
