RESUMO
Inhibitors of kinesin spindle protein (KSP) are a promising class of anticancer agents that cause mitotic arrest and induce apoptosis of tumor cells. A series of novel tetrahydro-beta-carboline derivatives were synthesized as kinesin spindle protein inhibitor and evaluated as potential antitumor agents. All compounds showed promising KSP inhibitiory activity. Compounds 8 and 9 exhibited better antitumor activity (Lung/A549, Stomach/AGS) than CK0106023 with GI50/IC50 values (1.07/1.62 and 1.46/3.27 micromol x L(-1), 1.09/>10 and 1.22/6.33 micromol x L(-1), respectively).

RESUMO
The potential effects of recombinant shark hepatical stimulator analogue (r-sHSA) in liver disease have been revealed in our previous studies. In order to further evaluate its clinic application, we carried out high cell-density fermentation in 5 L fermentor to get enough products. Based on the trials in shaking flask, we optimized the parameters for 5 L fermentor, including medium composition, medium supplement, inducer concentration and induction time, etc. In detail, the improved LB medium (0.97% glycerol, 0.91% yeast extract, 0.72% tryptone, 0.782% KH2PO4, 0.267% K2HPO4.3H2O, 0.062% MgSO4.7H2O, 0.5% NaCl, pH 7.0) is chosen to cultivate the engineering bacteria with the constant fermentation condition (pH 7.0, and the dissolved oxygen concentration is about 25%-30%). When bacterial culture reaches exponential phase, the modified feeding medium (620 g/L glycerol, 94.8 g/L tryptone, 3.3 mL/L trace elements, and 7.5 g/L MgSO4.7H2O) is then supplied through the method of exponential fed-batch mode. After the optical density (OD600) of engineering bacterial culture reaches to 23, the ultimately concentration of 0.5 mmol/L IPTG is added to induce the expression of r-sHSA for 6 h. Results show that the amount of r-sHSA production is (2.662 +/- 0.041) g/L, which is about 13.7 folds of the one optimized before.

AIM:To construct nine novel L-asparaginase mutants and study their enzyme-activity.METHODS:The mutants were constructed using overlap extension PCR according to the principle of alanine-scanning mutagenesis. The enzyme-activity was detected by Nessler's method. RESULTS:The DNA sequencing showed that the mutagenesis was consistent with the theoretical prediction. The enzyme-activity assay demonstrated that each mutant possessed enzyme activity equal to the original enzyme. CONCLUSION:Through gene modification,epitop of L-asparaginase was changed without activity loss.These results provide foundation for further study of the structure-function relationship of L-asparaginase.
RESUMO
This study was intended to establish a method of preparation of recombinant human insulin, with (His)6-Arg-Arg-human proinsulin (RRhPI) expressed by Escherichia coli. After DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow ion-exchange chromatography, Sephadex G-25 chromatography and refolding, enzyme cleavage and Superdex 75 size exclusion chromatography,the RRhPI expressed by Escherichia coli in inclusion body form was converted to human insulin. The obtained recombinant human insulin was analyzed by SDS-PAGE, HPLC, amino acid composition analysis and bioidentity test (mouse convulsion test). The results indicate that our obtained preparation is highly purified, active recombinant human insulin.
