    Notes: Abstract The influence of lyophilization on the stability of a monoclonal antibody (MN12) was investigated. MN12 was freeze-dried in different formulations [without lyoprotectant or in the presence of sucrose, dextran, or hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD)] and under varying conditions (with or without secondary drying). Subsequently, the monoclonal antibody was stored for 18 or 32 days at various temperatures (4, 37, or 56°C). For comparison, solutions of MN12 were stored under the same conditions. Regardless of the lyoprotectant used, precipitation and a concomitant reduction of the antigen-binding capacity by about 10% were observed upon recon-stitution of lyophilized MN12. HPβCD proved to be the most effective stabilizer to prevent degradation of lyophilized MN12 during storage. Compared with MN12 solutions, HPβCD-containing lyophilized MN12 cakes were more resistant to heat-induced charge alterations and loss of antigen-binding capacity.

    Notes: Abstract The stability of two purified monoclonal antibodies, MN12 and WT31, was investigated. The monoclonal antibodies were incubated for 32 days at different pH values (ranging from 3.0 to 10.0) at 4 and 37°C. Various analytical methods were used to assess changes in physicochemical properties of the proteins. The monoclonal antibodies were more susceptible to degradation at 37°C than at 4°C. At low pH irreversible precipitation occurred. Decomposition of the proteins was enhanced at increasing pH values in the alkaline range. This was concluded from mouse IgG-specific and antigen-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, flow cytometry, analytical gel permeation chromatography, sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing, and immunoblotting. No substantial change in the apparent affinity constant of MN12 was observed, as determined by an affinity enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Fluorescence spectra, fluorescence polarization values, and fluorescence quenching parameters of MN12 and WT31 were not substantially affected, indicating that no major irreversible conformational changes had occurred. It was concluded that each of the techniques used has only limited value for stability assessment of monoclonal antibodies and, hence, that the application of several analytical techniques is essential to gain insight into monoclonal antibody stability.

    Topics: Biology , Medicine , Process Engineering, Biotechnology, Nutrition Technology
    Notes: Abstract The stability of the hybridoma cell line MN12 in a long-term homogeneous continuous culture was studied using a panel of analytical methods. These include two flow cytometry methods, for the determination of relative cytoplasmic and membrane IgG content. In addition, the antibody production was determined by an ELISA, and the metabolic state of the cells was determined by means of glucose consumption and lactate production. These results indicate a possible selection of variants of MN12 hybridoma cells with an overall aerobic metabolism, but with a higher glucose consumption rate and a higher lactate production rate. These variants are mainly characterized by a different membrane IgG content and cytoplasmic antibody content. These changes may possibly be affected by the culture age.

    Notes: Abstract Liposomes were prepared from mixed micelles by a dilution method. Mixed micellar solutions, containing constant octyl glucoside and egg phosphatidylcholine concentrations and varying amounts of cholesterol and/or a charged compound, were diluted at defined rates. After dilution, the resulting liposome dispersions were sequentially concentrated, washed or dialysed, and filtered. The effect of lipid composition and experimental conditions on physicochemical characteristics was studied. Fairly homogeneous liposome dispersions with mean diameters ranging from 100 to over 200 nm could be obtained. The particle size was dependent on cholesterol content and surface charge, and could be reproducibly controlled by adjustment of the dilution rate. Liposomes with a mean diameter below 100 nm could also be obtained, but were heterodisperse and unstable. The incorporation of charged compounds was monitored by microelectrophoresis.31P-NMR measurements indicated that the liposomes were unilamellar. Dialysis appeared to be more convenient than washing to remove octyl glucoside.

    Description: Although curvature of biological surfaces has been considered from mathematical and biophysical perspectives, its molecular and developmental basis is unclear. We have studied the cin mutant of Antirrhinum, which has crinkly rather than flat leaves. Leaves of cin display excess growth in marginal regions, resulting in a gradual introduction of negative curvature during development. This reflects a change in the shape and the progression of a cell-cycle arrest front moving from the leaf tip toward the base. CIN encodes a TCP protein and is expressed downstream of the arrest front. We propose that CIN promotes zero curvature (flatness) by making cells more sensitive to an arrest signal, particularly in marginal regions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nath, Utpal -- Crawford, Brian C W -- Carpenter, Rosemary -- Coen, Enrico -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Feb 28;299(5611):1404-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, John Innes Centre, Norwich Research Park, Norwich, NR4 7UH, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12610308" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: To understand the constraints on biological diversity, we analyzed how selection and development interact to control the evolution of inflorescences, the branching structures that bear flowers. We show that a single developmental model accounts for the restricted range of inflorescence types observed in nature and that this model is supported by molecular genetic studies. The model predicts associations between inflorescence architecture, climate, and life history, which we validated empirically. Paths, or evolutionary wormholes, link different architectures in a multidimensional fitness space, but the rate of evolution along these paths is constrained by genetic and environmental factors, which explains why some evolutionary transitions are rare between closely related plant taxa.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Prusinkiewicz, Przemyslaw -- Erasmus, Yvette -- Lane, Brendan -- Harder, Lawrence D -- Coen, Enrico -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jun 8;316(5830):1452-6.

    Description: Hybridization between species can lead to introgression of genes from one species to another, providing a potential mechanism for preserving and recombining key traits during evolution. To determine the molecular basis of such transfers, we analyzed a natural polymorphism for flower-head development in Senecio. We show that the polymorphism arose by introgression of a cluster of regulatory genes, the RAY locus, from the diploid species S. squalidus into the tetraploid S. vulgaris. The RAY genes are expressed in the peripheral regions of the inflorescence meristem, where they promote flower asymmetry and lead to an increase in the rate of outcrossing. Our results highlight how key morphological and ecological traits controlled by regulatory genes may be gained, lost, and regained during evolution.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, Minsung -- Cui, Min-Long -- Cubas, Pilar -- Gillies, Amanda -- Lee, Karen -- Chapman, Mark A -- Abbott, Richard J -- Coen, Enrico -- BB-D017742/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- G10929/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2008 Nov 14;322(5904):1116-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1164371.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, John Innes Centre, Colney Lane, Norwich NR4 7UH, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19008450" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
