The present disclosure provides activated formylglycine-generating enzymes (FGE), methods of producing activated FGE, and their use in methods of producing a protein comprising a formylglycine (FGly) residue. The methods of producing activated FGE, as well as methods of use of activated FGE in producing FGly-containing proteins, include both cell-based and cell-free methods. Compositions and kits that find use, e.g., in practicing the methods of the present disclosure are also provided.

The present invention relates to probiotic compositions. More specifically, the present invention relates to probiotic compositions that are useful in reducing inflammation and/or that exhibit increased colonization or persistence in the gastrointestinal tract of a mammal.

Antibodies that include a sulfatase motif-containing tag in a constant region of an immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain polypeptide are disclosed. The sulfatase motif can be converted by a formylglycine-generating enzyme (FGE) to produce a formylglycine (fGly)-modified Ig light chain polypeptide. An fGly-modified Ig light chain polypeptide of the antibody can be covalently and site-specifically bound to a moiety of interest to provide an antibody conjugate. The disclosure also encompasses methods of production of such tagged Ig light chain polypeptides, fGly-modified Ig light chain polypeptides, and antibody conjugates, as well as methods of use of same.

The subject invention concerns materials and methods for treating or preventing disease and conditions associated with various sulfatase enzymes that are defective or that are not properly expressed in a person or animal. In one embodiment, the disease is Sanfilippo A (MPS-IIIA) disease. The subject invention also concerns materials and methods for treating or preventing multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) in a person or animal. Compounds of the invention include a fusion protein comprising i) a mammalian sulfatase, or an enzymatically active fragment or variant thereof, and ii) a plant lectin or a binding subunit thereof. In a specific embodiment, the mammalian sulfatase is a human sulfatase, or an enzymatically active fragment or variant thereof. Polynucleotides encoding the fusion proteins are also contemplated for the subject invention. The subject invention also concerns materials and methods for producing proteins of the invention. The subject invention further provides a method of co-expressing sulfatase and sulfatase modifying factor in a plant or plant cell.
