Angiogenin (Angiogenin, ANG) belongs to the secreted ribonuclease superfamily, and was originally discovered to be an angiogenic factor derived from human tumors. Subsequent studies have shown that ANG is also present in normal human tissues and body fluids. ANG increases the transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in the nucleus, while vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) activate mTOR and S6 kinase pathways to promote protein synthesis. Therefore, ANG can cooperate with VEGF and FGF-2 to promote protein synthesis in endothelial cells. In addition, ANG is necessary for endothelial cell proliferation. In addition to promoting angiogenesis, ANG is also involved in many other physiological and pathological processes, such as neuroprotection, inflammation, and tumorigenesis. Loss of function mutations in the ANG gene have been found in both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson's disease (PD).

Angiogenin (Angiogenin, ANG) belongs to the secreted ribonuclease superfamily, and was originally discovered to be an angiogenic factor derived from human tumors. Subsequent studies have shown that ANG is also present in normal human tissues and body fluids. ANG increases the transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in the nucleus, while vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) activate mTOR and S6 kinase pathways to promote protein synthesis. Therefore, ANG can cooperate with VEGF and FGF-2 to promote protein synthesis in endothelial cells. In addition, ANG is necessary for endothelial cell proliferation. In addition to promoting angiogenesis, ANG is also involved in many other physiological and pathological processes, such as neuroprotection, inflammation, and tumorigenesis. Loss of function mutations in the ANG gene have been found in both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson's disease (PD). According to literature reports, heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are required for ANG to enter cells. HSPGs are linear anionic glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains covalently linked to the core protein, composed of disaccharide repeating units of uronic acid and glucosamine, and the glucosamine residues 3-OH, 6-OH and -NH And the 2-OH of uronic acid is replaced by a sulfate group. HSPGs exist on the plasma membrane of all animals and are the main component of the extracellular matrix. Factors such as size, location, degree of sulfation, and uronic acid in different cells, tissues, and developmental stages contribute to the structural diversity of heparan sulphate (HS). This structural diversity is the basis for HSPGs to perform multiple functions. In previous research, our laboratory constructed a library of HS mutant mouse lung endothelial cells by knocking out key genes in the HS biosynthesis process. In this study, we prokaryotic expression and purification of recombinant ANG protein, using heparin and heparin derivatives and HS mutant mouse lung endothelial cell library to perform enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and flow cytometry experiments to explore the interaction between ANG and HS The specificity and clarify its structure-activity relationship.

In future applications, the product we get may have two directions of develop, but all in the clinical medicine aspect. One is to directly invent a new drug with the protein product of this gene and the other one is to explore its pharmacology regarding the relevant diseases which could be used to develop more new drugs.

+
−
The first kind of drug may have an effect on adjusting the nerve system, treating diseases like inflammation and the further developed drugs may be a possible treatment of some present incurable diseases such as PD and tumor. However, the overuse of ANG will also overpromote the generation of endothelial cells and vessels and may even cause cancer in some situations, so the correct usage of this drug shall be also necessary for being studied.

Market Survey

According to relevant data, among the 65-year-olds, one in ten people are Parkinson's disease patients; among the 85-year-olds, the number of people who have Parkinson's disease reaches 30%-50%. The research progress and molecular biological characteristics of Angiopoietin and its related proteins are reviewed. So far, four kinds of Angiopoietin and some isoforms or variants of Angiopoietin have been discovered. These proteins have a common structure: a signal peptide related to secretion at the amino terminus, a helix-like domain that mediates homo-oligomers, and a fibrinogen-like domain that mediates ligand activity at the carboxyl terminus.

Marketing Plan
+
−
The theory we have resulted in a unique product (but not medicine), which will be studied and researched by staff members in the collaborated pharmaceutical company), and the final medical products will be entirely produced and owned by the partner company. The outcome of our company remains with unknown effects on medicine. However, the result will be owned by our target group (pharmaceutical company).
+
−
 
+
−
We will market our product using many different ways. For example, online surveys, email marketing, mobile marketing, and social media marketing are considered the cheapest among all types of marketing. Since we are a brand new company, we do not have many budgets available for us, so we would consider the ways I listed above first. Once we have more budget allowed, we might try other ways of marketing our product. For example, printed marketing materials, such as brochures, flyers, business cards, etc. We can also try trade shows and other marketing that cost some money.

−
Challenges
+
−
During the experimental work, the main challenges were the plasmid DNA extraction and the protein purification process. One aspect of the difficulty is the continuous low concentration of plasmid DNA when we first extracted them. But as we navigate through and become more familiar with the long process, we successfully extracted with an ideal concentration.
+
−
 
+
−
Moreover, heterologous overexpression often results in low expression levels and inactive protein due to insufficient membrane insertion and folding or lack of post-translational modifications. And over-expression of membrane proteins can be toxic to the cell. Nevertheless, eventually, we obtained the freeze-dried protein powder. But with no doubt, we will further solidify this part of the work.
+
−
 
+
−
Before our product come into a real application, there are still some concerns regarding our Angiogenin protein. We need to conduct more experiments and tests to further ensure its purity, stability and biological activity. In addition, we would further focus on the yield issues, storage conditions and how to use our products to determine the dose of curing some present incurable diseases.

Profile

Name: PET28a-rANG

Base Pairs: 5683bp

Origin: human，synthetic

Properties: A coding sequence for Angiogenin.

Usage and Biology

Angiogenin (Angiogenin, ANG) belongs to the secreted ribonuclease superfamily, and was originally discovered to be an angiogenic factor derived from human tumors. Subsequent studies have shown that ANG is also present in normal human tissues and body fluids. ANG increases the transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in the nucleus, while vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) activate mTOR and S6 kinase pathways to promote protein synthesis. Therefore, ANG can cooperate with VEGF and FGF-2 to promote protein synthesis in endothelial cells. In addition, ANG is necessary for endothelial cell proliferation. In addition to promoting angiogenesis, ANG is also involved in many other physiological and pathological processes, such as neuroprotection, inflammation, and tumorigenesis. Loss of function mutations in the ANG gene have been found in both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson's disease (PD). According to literature reports, heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are required for ANG to enter cells. HSPGs are linear anionic glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains covalently linked to the core protein, composed of disaccharide repeating units of uronic acid and glucosamine, and the glucosamine residues 3-OH, 6-OH and -NH And the 2-OH of uronic acid is replaced by a sulfate group. HSPGs exist on the plasma membrane of all animals and are the main component of the extracellular matrix. Factors such as size, location, degree of sulfation, and uronic acid in different cells, tissues, and developmental stages contribute to the structural diversity of heparan sulphate (HS). This structural diversity is the basis for HSPGs to perform multiple functions. In previous research, our laboratory constructed a library of HS mutant mouse lung endothelial cells by knocking out key genes in the HS biosynthesis process. In this study, we prokaryotic expression and purification of recombinant ANG protein, using heparin and heparin derivatives and HS mutant mouse lung endothelial cell library to perform enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and flow cytometry experiments to explore the interaction between ANG and HS The specificity and clarify its structure-activity relationship. pro-rANG-His-ter

Name: rANG

Base Pairs: 375bp

Origin: Homo sapiens (Human)

Properties: A coding sequence for Angiogenin.

Usage and Biology

ANG is necessary for the proliferation of endothelial cells, and mutations in the loss of function of the ANG gene are likely to be important causes of cardiovascular diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson's disease (PD)

Experimental approach

pro-rANG-His-ter which produces ANG protein is shown in Figure2.

Figure2 : the scanning gel electrophoresis map of the plasmid vector after enzyme digestion.
Figure2 : the scanning gel electrophoresis map of the plasmid vector after enzyme digestion.

As seen in figure 2, lane 1 is the pET-28a without enzyme digestion and lane 2 to 9 is the result for pET-28a after enzyme digestion. The bands of our plasmid vectors after enzyme digestion(5311bp) showed at 5000 bp around which are correct and the bands at 300 bp around were the SUMO fragments that were cut by enzyme digestion. After that, we could further conduct the E. coli transformation.
