CinderBio Derives New Enzyme From Yellowstone Hot Springs

November 11, 2015

Industrial

Berkeley startup CinderBio has engineered highly heat- and acid-resistant enzymes derived from Yellowstone National Park's extreme bacteria. These unique enzymes can replace harsh chemicals in industrial processes like food equipment cleaning. In successful creamery trials, they reduced water use by 30% while cleaning faster and more effectively.

Application Notes

How To Use

Determination of unknown PTMs and increased protein sequence coverage from high temperature acidic enzyme digests

Natalie Korkola, Bioinformatics Solutions Inc., Waterloo, Canada

It is important to consider the appropriate PTMs in proteomics searches, to obtain the most complete data possible. However, it is not always known which PTMs to select in advance of a search. In particular, atypical digestion conditions such as the high temperatures and low pH used for hyperthermoacidic archaeal (HTA) enzyme digestions may produce different PTMs during sample preparation than those produced during a typical tryptic digest. Here, the PEAKS PTM algorithm, part of the PEAKS Studio 13 software package, is used to determine the differences in PTMs between a tryptic digest and HTA digests. This approach yielded an 8% increase in protein ID’s forHTA-protease data and boosted the number of protein ID’s seen only with HTA digests from 91 to 248 proteins.

Full de novo sequence coverage and complete automatic assembly of an IgG using a single hyperthermoacidic archaeal enzyme and PEAKS AB 3.5

Natalie Korkola, Bioinformatics Solutions Inc. Waterloo, Canada

Antibody sequencing usually requires performing multiple time-consuming, orthogonal enzyme digests for adequate sequence coverage and assembly. In this application note, complete de novo sequencing coverage and automatic assembly of human IgG is achieved using a single enzyme digest and PEAKS AB 3.5. The novel use of a single hyperthermoacidic archaea enzyme for complete, accurate sequence coverage is unprecedented.
