Abstract: The application belongs to the technical field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a site-specifically labeled transmembrane protein nanodisc, and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method for a site-specifically labeled transmembrane domain (TMD) as provided in this disclosure involves introducing a cysteine mutation into the TMD gene of a transmembrane protein. This mutated TMD is then conjugated with a chemical compound to achieve site-specifical labeling. Subsequently, the site-specifically labeled TMD and an extracellular domain (ECD) are expressed separately. The TMD is incorporated into a nanodisc, which closely mimics the physiological environment, and then ligated to the ECD. This process results in the formation of a site-specifically labeled transmembrane protein nanodisc.

Abstract: A construction method for and an application of a nucleic acid multimerization-mediated multivalent protein drug and vaccine. Specifically provided is a multimeric complex based on complementary nucleic acid backbones. The complex is a multimer formed by complexing of 3-6 monomers having complementary nucleic acid backbones, wherein each monomer is a polypeptide having a nucleic acid single strand. In the multimer, the nucleic acid single strand of each monomer and the nucleic acid single strands of the other two monomers form double strands by means of base complementation, so as to form complementary nucleic acid backbone structures. Also provided are a pharmaceutical composition containing the multimeric complex, a nucleic acid sequence library used for constructing the multimeric complex, and a method for optimizing complementary nucleic acid backbones.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology drugs. In particular, provided in the present invention is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) complex based on a complementary and paired nucleic acid skeleton. The ADC complex is a polymer formed by means of compounding n monomers having complementary and paired nucleic acid skeletons, wherein the polymer contains: m “targeting monomers”, which are cell-surface-targeting antibodies or proteins linked to nucleic acid single strands, and k “drug monomers”, which are drugs (toxin payload) linked to nucleic acid single strands, n is a positive integer of 2-8, m is a positive integer of 1-3 and m<n, and k is a positive integer of 1?(n-m). In the polymer, each nucleic acid single strand of the monomer is complemented with a nucleic acid single strand of the other 1-3 monomers to form a complementary and paired double strand by means of base complementation, so that a complementary and paired nucleic acid skeleton structure is formed.
