Microbial production of poly-γ-glutamic acid.
Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a natural, biodegradable and water-soluble biopolymer of glutamic acid. This review is focused on nonrecombinant microbial production of γ-PGA via fermentation processes. In view of its commercial importance, the emphasis is on L-glutamic acid independent producers (i.e. microorganisms that do not require feeding with the relatively expensive amino acid L-glutami...
متن کاملSelf-Healing, Self-Assembled β-Sheet Peptide–Poly(γ-glutamic acid) Hybrid Hydrogels
Self-assembled biomaterials are an important class of materials that can be injected and formed in situ. However, they often are not able to meet the mechanical properties necessary for many biological applications, losing mechanical properties at low strains. We synthesized hybrid hydrogels consisting of a poly(γ-glutamic acid) polymer network physically cross-linked via grafted self-assemblin...
متن کاملPrevention of type I diabetes transfer by glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 peptide 206-220-specific T cells.
Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) 65 is one of the major pancreatic antigens targeted by self-reactive T cells in type I diabetes mellitus. T cells specific for GAD65 are among the first to enter inflamed islets and may be important for the initiation of autoimmune diabetes. However, we previously reported that nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice transgenic for a T cell antigen receptor (TCR) specific...
متن کاملSuppression of glutamic acid codons by mutant glycine transfer ribonucleic acid.
In previous mutational studies with mutant trpA46 (Gly [GGA] --> Glu [GAA] at position 211 of the tryptophan synthetase alpha chain) of Escherichia coli, no missense suppressors were detected. Such suppressors have now been obtained by single mutations in gly Vins, the structural gene for a GGA/G-reading, mutationally altered form of gly V transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) (tRNA(Gly) which reads...
متن کاملNMR Study of Poly(γ-Glutamic Acid) Hydrogels Prepared by γ-Irradiation : Characterization of Bond Formation and Scission
Hydrogels were prepared from poly(γ-glutamic acid) (PGA) solution by γ-irradiation of 90 kGy and 170 kGy. The hydrogels were more cross-linked with a higher dosage γ-irradiation and completely hydrolyzed at 85 oC within 4 hours resulting in homogeneous solution. NMR techniques were employed to clarify chemical bond formation and scission involved during γ-irradiation and hydrolysis. Characteriz...
