Multivalent heteromultimer scaffold design and constructs

Provided herein are multifunctional heteromultimer proteins. In specific embodiments is a heteromultimer comprising: at least two polypeptide constructs, each polypeptide construct comprising at least one cargo polypeptide attached to a transporter polypeptide, said transporter polypeptides derived from a monomeric native protein such that said monomeric constructs associate to form the heteromultimer and said transporter polypeptides associate to form a quasi-native structure of the monomeric native protein or analog thereof. These therapeutically novel molecules encompass heteromultimers comprising constructs that function as scaffolds for the conjugation or fusion of therapeutic molecular entities (cargo polypeptides) resulting in the creation of bispecific or multivalent molecular species. Provided herein is a method for creation of bispecific or multivalent molecular species.

Hypericin albumin nanoparticle-Escherichia coli serum antibody complex and preperation method and application thereof

The present invention discloses a hypericin albumin nanoparticle-Escherichia coli serum antibody complex, which is obtained through adding mixed hypericin albumin nanoparticles and rabbit anti-Escherichia colis into ethanediol, irradiating them with carbon ion, setting them at a low temperature for 2 hours after irradiation, centrifuging them at a low temperature, and freezing and drying the precipitates. Its preparation method and application are also provided. The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention provides a hypericin albumin nanoparticle-Escherichia coli serum antibody complex and its preparation method and application, wherein through bacteriostatic test and clinical pharmacodynamic test, it is proved that the effects of target complex is greatly improved compared with that of the prior drug, because the Escherichia coli serum antibodies seek and capture Escherichia coli and the hypericin albumin nanoparticles inhibit and kill Escherichia coli, which precisely attacks Escherichia coli and strengthen the antibacterial effect of hypericin albumin nanoparticle on chicken focus location.

High purity alpha lactalbumin and methods of making

Methods and systems for making a high-purity α-lactalbumin composition are described. The composition may be made by providing a whey protein mixture, and adding an alkaline solution to the mixture to make the mixture alkaline and promote the aggregation of ß-lactoglobulin proteins. The alkaline whey protein mixture is filtered into a ß-LG aggregate composition and a α-LA enriched composition. A final α-lactalbumin enriched composition sourced from the α-LA enriched composition is dried into the high-purity α-lactalbumin composition (a powdered dairy composition) that is at least 70 wt. % α-lactalbumin on a protein basis. A protease enzyme may optionally be added to the α-LA enriched composition to form an enzymatically treated α-LA enriched composition that becomes the source of the final α-lactalbumin enriched composition.
