Patent number: 10035994Abstract: A new, reliable, easily scalable and reproducible method for the production of recombinant butyrylcholinesterase (rBuChE) is provided. Through the utilization of a plant transfection procedure, various plant strains have been shown to generate effective and scalable amounts of rBuChE under acceptable manufacturing processes to permit reliable levels of such enzymes for desired nerve agent protection requirements (including tetrameric products). As well, such methods in engineered plant lines have shown suitable production of these enzymes in tetramer form with glycan formation and sialylation (for terminal groups) to allow for optimal potency against organophosphorus agent exposure as well as proper immunogenic response within the plant sources. The overall production method, including the transfection and production within mammalian cells, as well as the process steps involved for such a reliable sourcing platform from plants is thus encompassed within the invention.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2017Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: KENTUCKY BIOPROCESSING, INC.Inventors: Greg Pogue, Ernie Hiatt, Romy Kandzia, Stefan Werner, Frank Thieme, Tsafrir Mor, Steven Hume

Publication number: 20060013831Abstract: A composition and method for enhancing immune response in a living organism is disclosed. In particular, the present disclosure provides an adjuvant peptide for use in raising an immune response to an antigen. The adjuvant peptide is selected from a group of peptides with an HIV-related sequence. Additionally, the adjuvant peptide can comprise a fusion-protein that acts as a mucosal adjuvant. The adjuvant peptide can be transformed into one or more living cells, such that the mucosal adjuvant can be produced in living cells and then administered by systemic, mucosal or epidermal delivery.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2003Publication date: January 19, 2006Inventors: Tsafrir Mor, Nobuyuki Matoba, Charles Arntzen
