摘要:
Compositions and methods are provided for modulating the physiological activation of tissue transglutaminase (TG2); which methods can include inhibiting the activation of TG2 associated with enteric inflammatory disorders, which disorders may include celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's Disease, dermatitis herpetiformis, and the like. In other embodiments of the invention, methods are provided for reducing undesirable paracellular transport in enteric tissues, in particular the paracellular transport of molecules greater than about 500 mw, e.g. peptides, including without limitation immunogenic gluten peptides.

摘要:
Combination enzyme products and methods of use thereof are provided. Aspergillopepsin I is combined with a protease enzyme that provides for an additive or synergistic effect in the digestion of toxic gluten oligopeptides. The enzyme products are useful in the treatment of Celiac Sprue patients, particularly for patients who continue to exhibit signs or symptoms of active disease despite following a gluten-free diet.

Administering an effective dose of a tTGase inhibitor to a Celiac or dermatitis herpetiformis patient reduces the toxic effects of toxic gluten oligopeptides, thereby attenuating or eliminating the damaging effects of gluten.
摘要:
Host cells comprising recombinant vectors encoding the FK-520 polyketide synthase and FK-520 modification enzymes can be used to produce the FK-520 polyketide. Recombinant DNA constructs comprising one or more FK-520 polyketide synthase domains, modules, open reading frames, and variants thereof can be used to produce recombinant polyketide synthases and a variety of different polyketides with application as pharmaceutical and veterinary products.
