This document summarizes a study on the synthetic production of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in E. coli. The purpose is to create an AMP production system in E. coli to test yield and purification parameters. Three AMPs were chosen - Spheniscin from penguins, WAM-1 from wallabies, and OH-CATH(3-34) from cobras. DNA containing the AMPs was inserted into a plasmid vector and transformed into E. coli cells. Two constructs containing Spheniscin and OH-CATH(3-34) were successfully produced, while the WAM-1 construct is still in progress. Future work includes optimizing purification, inducing AMP production

Cow´s milk allergy is a common food allergy especially among infants and young children. The major allergen in cow´s milk is beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) and BLG-specific antibodies are needed for diagnostic, therapeutic, food processing and quality verification applications. At VTT we have established a IgE antibody library from a milk allergic person and identified high-affinity antibodies against native and heat denaturated BLG. As an alternative production system, we have used barley as a production host. Proof-of-concept was gained with expressing the BLG-specific antibody in barley cell culture. Best production levels in barley grains were obtained with glutelin-specific promoter combined to ER targeting and retention signals. The barley-produced BLG-specific antibody was successfully purifed with affinity-based chromatography and the functionality of barley-produced BLG-specific antibody was verified by ELISA and immunoprecipitation assays. The developed barley-based expression system clearly demonstrated its potential for application in the processing of dairy milk products as well as in detecting allergens from foods possibly contaminated by cow´s milk.
If antibody expression products are to be glycosylated for its biological functions, eukaryotic systems are the optional method.

Need to revolutionize the crop breedingamoldchokhat
Mankind is facing an enormous challenge of food insecurity. By the year 2050, the population of the world is projected to increase by 35% to a whopping 9 billion; and an almost doubling of global food production is needed to feed the planet. This additional food for humans and farm animals has to come from the existing land, through maximization of genetic potential and relatively quickly. This demand for unprecedented productivity in agriculture needs to be realized in the presence of growing challenges of climate change, shortsighted land-use practices and increasing cost of agriculture despite the rate of improved adoption of technology in crop breeding. Recent advances in our understanding of genes and genomes combined with development of novel tools in biotechnology will play a vital role in accelerating efforts in plant breeding. Genomics assisted breeding assists the breeders in precise selection to enhance the effectivity and enhancement of the precise selection to develop a new cultivars.
This presentation mainly deals with Rdna, its properties, sources and applications.According to my opinion the best ppt i have ever prepared to crack the seminar exam during my college days.I am sure everyone is going to like it and please comment if u all like it....

Succeeding with Hybrid SharePoint (includes new Cloud SSA material)Jeff Fried
Session by Jeff Fried at SPS Toronto on Sept 19 2015
Focusing on hybrid sharepoint - strategy and implementation.
Special attention to new Cloud Hybrid Search and Cloud SSA, including examples, what the gaps are, and how to address them.
From Zero to Hero: A Real World Guide to Building High Availability SharePoin...Eric Shupps
Building SharePoint farms for development and testing is easy. But building highly available farms to meet enterprise service level agreements that are fault tolerant, scalable and connected to the cloud? Not quite so easy. In this workshop you will learn how to plan, design and implement a highly availability farm architecture based upon proven techniques and practical guidance.
This presentation gives an insight into the mammalian cell being used as an expression system, it also includes a brief introduction to the strong promoters.
Cell Engineering and Molecular Pharming in Biopharmaceuticals.pptxAngela Abraham
Biopharmaceuticals are often produced by recombinant E. coli or mammalian cell lines. This is usually
achieved by the introduction of a gene or cDNA coding for the protein of interest into a well-characterized strain of producer
cells. Naturally, each recombinant production system has its own unique advantages and disadvantages. This paper
examines the current practices, developments, and future trends in the production of biopharmaceuticals. Platform technologies
for rapid screening and analyses of biosystems are reviewed. Strategies to improve productivity via metabolic
and integrated engineering are also highlighted.

Antimicrobial Peptides
Purpose
AMP Construct Cloning Process
Future Work
ResultsSpheniscin WAM-1 OH-CATH(3-34)
Plan
Spheniscin is the AMP found
in the stomach lining of the
King Penguin. This particular
AMP is used to help preserve
food by preventing it from
being decayed by bacteria.
WAM-1 is an AMP found
in the pouches of the Wallaby
and is used to help the
immuno–deficient young
remain healthy in the early
stages of life.
OH-CATH(3-34) is an
AMP found in the King Cobra
and has shown to be highly
potent against several multi-
drug resistant strains of
bacteria.
Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs) are naturally occurring
antibiotics found to be integral in the immune systems of
plants and animals around the globe. These antibiotics
show great promise in the future of both the medical
field with production of new drugs and the food industry
with the production of increased preservation methods.
Various production
methods for AMPs have been
used but have been limited
by production costs. The
integration of AMPs into
Escherichia coli has shown to
be very promising.
The computer generated, 3D structure
of LL-37. This AMP is found in the
human skin, respiratory tract, and
intestinal tract. It has high antibacterial
activity.
The purpose of this study is to ultimately create an
AMP production system in E. coli. Various tests can
then be performed on the AMPs to determine yield
and purification. Further experiments can then be
done to optimize these two parameters.
• Purify the DNA containing the specific AMPs
chosen for the experiments.
• Insert the DNA into the chosen plasmid vector,
PSBIC3, through DNA ligation
• Transform the plasmid into competent E. coli cells.
• Purify cells containing the DNA of interest using
CTAB
• Run a gel electrophoresis to determine the
successful cloning.
• Repeat process, adding pieces to the construct
until reaching desired result.
Constructs were first
designed with several
components such as a
promoter, a ’10XHis’ tag
for purification
purposes, a green color
fluorescing protein for
detection, and the
chosen AMP.
After designing the
constructs, the DNA
was extracted from
electrophoresis gel
slices obtained from
prior cloning cycles, or
from stock DNA. It was
then purified using a
DNA purification kit.
Once we connected our
DNA pieces together, we used
an electroporator to insert the
constructs into our competent
E. coli cells. The E. coli was
then plated onto petri dishes
and left to grow colonies of
cells overnight.

After transformation, we
purified the plasmid DNA
from the E. coli cells and cut
it with specific enzymes. We
then ran gel electrophoresis
to determine the presence
of the appropriate DNA
sequence.
• Optimization of HIS-Tag purification system using
nickel columns.
• Induce AMP production in E. coli and conduct
growth studies to determine the AMP’s effect on
cell growth.
• Conduct activity studies on several bacterial
species to determine AMP effectiveness.
• Optimize production yields of active AMPs.

I would like to thank Dallin, Alex, and Chad for allowing me to help in
their research. I would also like to thank Dr. Miller for letting me work in
his lab for the summer and to gain invaluable experience to be used in
the future. Lastly I would like to thank Utah State University’s
department of Biological Engineering for allowing me to come and gain
research experience and to enjoy the campus for the Summer.
Two full Antimicrobial Peptide
constructs were completed in the
time spent in the lab. These
constructs consisted of
PHTGFPEPSOhCathB0015 and
PHTGFPEPSSphenB0015. The
construct containing WAM-1 is
currently still in the cloning process. Lanes of note (left to right): DNA
ladder (lane 1),
PHTGFPEPSSphenB0015 (lane 5),
and PHTGFPEPSOhCathB0015
(lane 6)
A growth study was
conducted on the
successful constructs
without inducing AMP
production to get a growth
baseline for future
comparison.
