Lesson1: Sebelipase Alfa
Learning Objectives
Aftercompleting this lesson,you will be ableto:
 Describe the role of sebelipase alfa
 Describe howsebelipasealfaisproduced
 Describe the targetingandactivityof sebelipase alfa
Overview
Sebelipase alfa(formerlyknownas SBC-102) is a recombinantform of the
humanlysosomal acidlipase (LAL) enzyme underdevelopmentbySynageva
as an enzyme replacementtherapy for LAL Deficiency. [Synageva 2014
Sebelipase alfa p1 para1] Enzyme replacementtherapyinvolvesthe
administrationof enzymestopatientswhohave anenzyme deficiency
disease,suchasLAL D. [Taber's 2014 enzyme replacement therapy]
How sebelipase alfa is produced [7_Testing-Diagnostics-LAL D
Overview_June 2013.ppt Slide 52, Synageva 2014 Overview]
Synagevacreatesandproducesrecombinantproteinsusingproprietary
technology. Toproduce sebelipasealfa, the transgene isinsertedintothe
genome of Gallusgallus.The oviductcellsthentranscribe the sebelipase
alfagene and translate the sebelipase alfamRNA intothe protein:
sebelipase alfa.(Foradescriptionof howgenesare usedtomake proteins,
see Module 1: GeneticsBackgrounder.)
Sebelipase alfaisproducedinthe eggwhite,whichisaprotein-friendly
environment.(Thisisalsoone reasonwhypatientswitheggallergieswere
excludedfromclinical studies.) The proteinispurifiedaccordingto
establishedindustrystandards. Thistechnologyyieldsconsistentexpression

Sebelipase alfa targeting and activity
Sebelipase alfa,like naturallyoccurringlysosomal enzymes,isa
glycoprotein,whichmeansitisa proteinwithsugarpolymersattached.For
glycoproteinenzyme replacementtherapytobe effective,the glycoprotein
mustbe able tobindto its receptor,be takenupby the cell,andbe
transportedtothe lysosome where itcanexertitsaction.
Receptor binding:Sebelipasealfaisdesignedtobindspecificallytoeither
mannose or mannose-6-phosphate receptorsoncells.The mannose
receptorisfoundparticularlyon reticuloendothelial cells,includingKupffer
cellsinthe liver, monocytes,andmacrophages.The mannose-6-phosphate
receptorispresentona wide varietyof cell types, includinghepatocytes
and otherepithelial cell types.
Transport to lysosomes:Studiesusinglabelingwithfluorescentdyeshave
shownthat,afterbindingtothese receptors, sebelipasealfaistakenupby
cellsandtransportedtolysosomes.Figure 4-2showsthe resultsof adye

Biological action: The biological activityof sebelipase alfawas
demonstratedinacell culture experiment.Inthe experiment,fibroblasts

foundto increase cellularLALactivity(see Figure 4-3).

livertransaminases(ALTandAST) decreasedrapidly intothe normal range.
ThisreductioninASTand ALT was observedwithin2weeksof the first

increased.
Serumlipids
There wasa transientincrease intotal cholesterol,triglycerides,andLDL
betweenbaseline andDay28 inLAL-CL01. This transientincrease was
believedtobe due tomobilizationof accumulatedlipids. [Balwani 2013 p6 col 1

Learning Objectives
Aftercompleting this lesson,you will be ableto:
 Describe the objectivesof the RegistryforLysosomal AcidLipase
Deficiency(LALD)
 Describe the functionsof the RegistryforLysosomal AcidLipase
Deficiency(LALD)
Overview
The LAL DeficiencyRegistryisamulti-center,internationalregistrythatuses
observational methodstocollectlongitudinaldatafrompatientswith
lysosomal acidlipase deficiency(LALD) inorder to create a knowledge base
to helpimprove the care of these patients. [LAL D Registry2014 Work p1 para1]

Objectiveof the Registry
The LAL D Registrycollectslongitudinal data.Ideally,the information
gatheredwill be usedforthe followingpurposes: [LAL D Registry2014 Work p1
para2]
 To furtherunderstand LALD, itsprogression,andanyassociated
complications
 To evaluate the long-termeffectivenessof therapeuticandsupportive
interventions
 To improve care throughevidence-basedpatientmanagement
 To understandthe relationshipbetween LALDand access to care

 To produce sebelipase alfa,the transgene isinsertedintothe genomeof
Gallus gallus;oviductcells thentranscribe the sebelipase alfagene and
translate the sebelipase alfamRNA intothe protein: sebelipase alfa.
 Afterbindingtospecificreceptorsoncells, sebelipasealfaistakenupby

 Cellsincubatedwithsebelipase alfahave been foundtoincrease cellular

 Recombinanthuman sebelipase alfahasanappropriate glycanstructure
that allowsitto bindtomannose or mannose-6-phosphate receptors,be
takenup bycells,and be transportedto lysosomeswhere itisbiologically
