Default Polyproline is a minimal antifreeze protein mimetic and enhances the cryopreservation of cell monolayers

Polyproline is a minimal antifreeze protein mimetic and enhances the cryopreservation of cell monolayers


Tissue engineering, gene therapy, drug screening and emerging regenerative medicine therapies are fundamentally reliant on high-quality adherent cell culture, but current methods to cryopreserve cells in this format can give low cell yields and requires large volumes of solvent 'antifreezes'. Herein we report polyproline is a minimum (bio)synthetic mimic of antifreeze proteins, which is accessible by solution, solid phase and recombinant methods. We demonstrate that polyproline has ice recrystallization inhibition activity linked to its amphipathic helix and that it enhances the DMSO- cryopreservation of adherent cell lines. Polyproline may be a versatile additive in the emerging field of macromolecular cryoprotectants.

Comparison of backbone dynamics of the type III antifreeze protein and antifreeze-like domain of human sialic acid synthase
Comparison of backbone dynamics of the type III antifreeze protein and antifreeze-like domain of human sialic acid synthase Abstract Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are found in a variety of cold-adapted (psychrophilic) organisms to promote survival at subzero temperatures by binding to ice crystals and decreasing the freezing temperature of body fluids. The type III AFPs are small globular proteins that consist of one α-helix, three 310-helices, and two β-strands. Sialic acids play important roles in a variety of biological functions, such as...

NMR characterizations of the ice binding surface of an antifreeze protein.
NMR characterizations of the ice binding surface of an antifreeze protein. NMR characterizations of the ice binding surface of an antifreeze protein. PLoS One. 2010;5(12):e15682 Authors: Hong J, Hu Y, Li C, Jia Z, Xia B, Jin C Antifreeze protein (AFP) has a unique function of reducing solution freezing temperature to protect organisms from ice damage. However, its functional mechanism is not well understood. An intriguing question concerning AFP function is how the high selectivity for ice ligand is achieved in the presence of free water of...

Methods Enzymol. 2005;394:261-95 Authors: Grishaev A, Llinás M In this chapter we review automated methods of protein NMR data analysis and expand on the assignment-independent CLOUDS approach. As presented, given a set of reliable NOEs it is feasible to derive a spatial H-atom distribution that provides a low-resolution image of the protein structure. In order to generate such a...

Protein-ice interaction of an antifreeze protein observed with solid-state NMR Siemer, A. B., Huang, K.-Y., McDermott, A. E.... Date: 2010-10-12 NMR on frozen solutions is an ideal method to study fundamental questions of macromolecular hydration, because the hydration shell of many biomolecules does not freeze together with bulk solvent. In the present study, we present previously undescribed NMR methods to study the interactions of proteins with their hydration shell and the ice lattice in frozen solution. We applied these methods to compare solvent interaction of an ice-binding...
