Avidity-mediated virus separation using a hyperthermophilic affinity ligand

BIOTECHNOLOGY PROGRESS, 29(1), 237–246.

By: M. Hussain n, D. Lockney n, R. Wang n, N. Gera n & B. Rao n

author keywords: avidity; affinity ligand; hyperthermophilic; multivalent
MeSH headings : Archaeal Proteins / chemistry; Archaeal Proteins / isolation & purification; Archaeal Proteins / metabolism; DNA-Binding Proteins / chemistry; DNA-Binding Proteins / isolation & purification; DNA-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Ligands; Molecular Weight; Plant Extracts; Plant Leaves / virology; Sulfolobus solfataricus / chemistry; Sulfolobus solfataricus / metabolism; Tobacco / virology; Tombusviridae / isolation & purification
TL;DR: The approach may be broadly relevant to cases where capture of large multivalent species from complex mixtures and subsequent release without the use of harsh elution conditions is necessary, and bypasses chemical conjugation of the affinity ligand to the capture surface.

Design of pH Sensitive Binding Proteins from the Hyperthermophilic Sso7d Scaffold

PLOS ONE, 7(11).

By: N. Gera n, A. Hill n, D. White n, R. Carbonell n & B. Rao n

MeSH headings : Carrier Proteins / genetics; Carrier Proteins / metabolism; Epitopes / genetics; Escherichia coli / genetics; Escherichia coli / metabolism; Histidine / genetics; Histidine / metabolism; Humans; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Immunoglobulin Fc Fragments / genetics; Immunoglobulin Fc Fragments / metabolism; Immunoglobulin G / genetics; Immunoglobulin G / metabolism; Mutagenesis; Sulfolobus solfataricus / genetics; Sulfolobus solfataricus / metabolism
TL;DR: P pH sensitive hFc binders are attractive candidates for use in chromatography, to achieve elution of IgG under milder pH conditions, but further studies are needed to evaluate if the Sso7d mutants identified in this study are indeed useful as affinity ligands in Chromatography.

Scaffold Diversification Enhances Effectiveness of a Super library of Hyperthermophilic Proteins

ACS SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY, 2(1), 6–13.

By: M. Hussain n, N. Gera n, A. Hill n & B. Rao n

author keywords: hyperthermophilic protein scaffolds; yeast surface display; protein engineering; alternate scaffold; mRNA display
MeSH headings : Biotechnology / methods; Carrier Proteins / genetics; Carrier Proteins / metabolism; Fungal Proteins / chemistry; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Fungal Proteins / metabolism; Models, Molecular; Peptide Library; Protein Conformation; Yeasts / genetics; Yeasts / metabolism
TL;DR: Scaffold diversification, i.e., randomization of multiple different scaffolds, is a powerful alternate strategy for combinatorial library construction and binders from this modestly sized superlibrary have affinities comparable or higher than those obtained from a library with 1000-fold higher sequence diversity but derived from a single stable scaffold.
