Biomedicine NEW Protein folding in silico Protein folding versus protein structure prediction Edited by I RotermanKonieczna, Jagiellonian University Medical College Woodhead Publishing Series in Biomedicine No. 22

Protein folding is a process by which a protein structure assumes its functional shape of conformation, and has been the subject of research since the publication of the first software tool for protein structure prediction. Protein folding in silico approaches this issue by introducing an ab initio model that attempts to simulate as far as possible the folding process as it takes place in vivo, and attempts to construct a mechanistic model on the basis of the predictions made. The opening chapters discuss the early stage intermediate and late stage intermediate models, followed by a discussion of structural information that affects the interpretation of the folding process. The second half of the book covers a variety of topics including ligand binding site recognition, the ‘fuzzy oil drop’ model and its use in simulation of the polypeptide chain, and misfolded proteins. The book ends with an overview of a number of other ab initio methods for protein structure predictions and some concluding remarks. CONTENTS

Early Stage intermediate; Late stage intermediate; Structural information involved in the interpretation of the stepwise protein folding process; Divergence entropy characterizing the internal force field in proteins: Ligand binding site recognition; The “fuzzy oil drop” model to identify the complexation area in protein homodimers; Simulation of the polypeptide chain folding process using “fuzzy oil drop” model; Misfolded proteins; Short description of other selected ab initio methods for protein structure prediction.

Fed-batch fermentation is primarily a practical guide for recombinant protein production in E. coli using a fed-batch fermentation process. Ideal users of this guide are teaching labs and R&D labs that need a quick and reproducible process for recombinant protein production. It may also be used as a template for the production of recombinant protein product for use in clinical trials. The guide highlights a method whereby a medium cell density - final Ods = 30-40 (A600) - fed-batch fermentation process can be accomplished within a single day with minimal supervision. This process can also be done on a small (2L) scale that is scalable to 30L or more. All reagents (media, carbon source, plasmid vector and host cell) used are widely available and are relatively inexpensive. This method has been used to produce three different protein products following cGMP guidelines for Phase I clinical studies. CONTENTS

Introduction to fermentation; Typical recombinant E. coli host cells and plasmids used; Generation of recombinant clone and working cell bank; Generation of inoculants for fed-batch culture; Fed-batch culture method; Analysis of growth and production data; Parametric analysis for periplasmic soluble production of recombinant product.

Biomedicine NEW Successful biopharmaceutical operations Driving change C Driscoll, Driscoll Consulting Group, USA Woodhead Publishing Series in Biomedicine No. 48

Successful biopharmaceutical operations provides a practical guide to transforming biopharma companies into industry leaders through a focus on driving change. The industry has a blind spot concerning this kind of work, because successful change management comes from a focus on people, while our technically-minded ranks invariably prefer a technical focus. This cognitive bias causes us to pick up the tools we like the best and to swing them enthusiastically - whether they are working or not. This book provides new tools, and readers gain an understanding of how biopharma organizations developed into the cultures we see currently. CONTENTS

Part 1 The need for change: Something isn’t right?; The problem of smart people; The ease of fundamentalism; The silo skyline; Integrating the appearance of improvement; Call it what it is: Cost reduction; When you turn the wheel and nothing happens; When you take public opinion polls to see what’s wrong; When you realize you run a daycare center. Part 2 The change process: Change management framework; Cognitive bias; The compliance card; Simplicity vs. complexity; Accountability vs. innocent bystander; Bringing it all together: Engagement, gameplan, sustainability. Part 3 Noise (you’ll want to read this): Lessons from Oobleck; They’re under too much pressure; we need to give them time; they don’t feel comfortable bringing things up.

Edited by R Pignatello, University of Catania, Italy

The life-cycle of pharmaceuticals in the environment identifies pathways of entry of pharmaceuticals into the environment beginning with the role of global prescribing and disposal practices. It then discusses typical levels of common pharmaceuticals and how they can be determined in natural waters such as raw and treated sewage, and potable water. Methods currently available to degrade pharmaceuticals in the natural waters are discussed and then some of their ecotoxicological impacts are reviewed. Future considerations and the growing concept of ‘product stewardship’ are also examined.

Ocular transporters and receptors contains detailed descriptions of major transporters and receptors expressed in the eye, with special emphasis on their role in drug delivery. The complex anatomy and the existence of multiple barriers in the eye pose a considerable challenge to successful drug delivery to the eye. Hence ocular transporters and receptors are important targets for drug delivery. A significant advancement has been made in the field of ocular transport research and their role in drug delivery. In this book the cutting edge research being carried out in this field is compiled and summarized. The key areas the book focuses on include, the anatomy and physiology of the eye, biology of ocular transporters and receptors, techniques in characterization of transporters and receptors, transporters and receptors in the anterior and posterior segment in the eye, the role of ocular transporters and receptors in drug delivery, and transporter-metabolism interplay in the eye.
