| |
− | <p>Bear bile, one of the most famous animal drugs in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), has been
| |
− | recorded in ancient Chinese medicine book as a significant method to treat hepatic and biliary
| |
− | disorders. UDCA, the effective ingredient of bear bile.Aside from the traditional use of bear
| |
− | bile in Chinese medicine, UDCA(ursodeoxycholic acid), the effective ingredient of bear bile
| |
− | acid, has a much larger pharmaceutical application. As well as the usage of UDCA in dissolving
| |
− | gallstone, its efficacy in primary biliary cirrhosis and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) as
| |
− | an adjunct to medical therapy has been well established. Newer indications include its use in
| |
− | the management of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, post liver transplant rejection,
| |
− | graft-versus-host disease and acute viral hepatitis, where it not only relieves symptoms of
| |
− | cholestasis but also arrests ongoing hepatocyte necrosis. However, the increasing demand for
| |
− | bear bile has caused bears to be in an endangered state: bear poaching and illegal animal trade
| |
− | have greatly dwindled the number of the wild Asiatic black bear. Apart from that, bear bile
| |
− | farming industry in Asia extracts bile through “milking” from the bears, which is operated
| |
− | through surgically implanting a permanent catheter in the animal's gallbladder to obtain the
| |
− | drips. It is unquestionable that the bear bile farming process will lead to both physical and
| |
− | psychological damage in bears. </p>

| |
− | <p>To find substitute or alternative for bear bile farming, our team will be working on the
| |
− | biological synthesis of the main effective component of this important medicine,
| |
− | UDCA(Ursodeoxycholic Acid). This biological approach will not only be more efficient but also be
| |
− | cheaper than the original chemical approach, which is widely used in the current UDCA synthesis

− | <h2 id='Overview'>Overview of the project</h2>
| |
− | <p>We found that it is possible to convert the main component of poultry bile, CDCA(Chenodeoxycholic
| |
− | Acid), into UDCA, by employing two enzyme-catalyzed the reactions. First, two enzymes was
| |
− | employed to manage the transformation of CDCA to 7oxo-LCA. In the present of
| |
− | 7a-HSD(7alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase), CDCA is transformed in to 7oxo-LCA by loosing a
| |
− | pair of hydrogen(2H+ and 2e-), the pair of hydrogen is added to NAD+, the cofactor and the
| |
− | acceptor. The NAD+ is transformed into NADH during the reaction. To regenerate the NAD+ and
| |
− | recycle the reaction, to , the LDH(Lactate dehydrogenase) works on pyruvate and take the pair of
| |
− | hydrogen from NADH and transform the pyruvate to lactate and NADH to NAD+.</p>
| |
− | <p>In the second step, the 7oxo-LCA is transformed to UDCA by 7β-HSDH(7beta-hydroxysteroid
| |
− | dehydrogenase)and GDH(glutamate dehydrogenase).The 7β-HSDH works on 7oxo-LCA and take a pair of
| |
− | hydrogen from NADPH(the cofactor for the second step)and add it to 7oxo-LCA and form a beta
| |
− | position 7-hydroxyl group, which is our target product UDCA. The GDH works on glucose and take a
| |
− | pair of hydrogen from it and add it to the NADP+, to form NADPH to manage the regeneration of
| |
− | cofactor NADPH for the second step.</p>

| |
− | <p>Our mission is to expression of the four enzymes 7α-HSDH (from ecoli DH5a), 7β-HSDH (from
| |
− | Ruminococcus Torques), GDH (from Bacillus subtilis), and LDH from (Lactobacillus delbruechii
| |
− | subsp. Bulgaricus)and test their activities. By adding the CBD( cellulose binding
| |
− | domain)sequnence to the plasmid we construct, we manage to bind our enzyme on gauze. This
| |
− | specific design excels in 3 specific ways: first, by controlling the presence of the gauze in
| |
− | the solution, we can control the process of the reaction. Second, when the target enzyme is
| |
− | bound to cellulose we manage to purify the protein we express. Third, the enzyme binding gauze
| |
− | is employed to a machine including the reaction efficiency measuring system and the enzyme
| |
− | addition controlling system .</p>
