A novel modified peptide AT-01 has been synthesized from the microbiomic secretory protein MPT63 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This peptide (about 30 amino acids) contains a portion of the immunogenic region of MPT63 (131 amino acids). It has been found to stabilize SMAR1 (Scaffold Matrix Attachment Region Binding ...
The present invention provides a composition comprising a broad spectrum protein of microbial origin as active anti-HIV/AIDS agent. Either the protein is secreted by or surface associated in microorganisms including but not limiting to bacteria, both pathogenic and non-pathogenic. The proteins used are isolated from...
ABSTRACT
ANTICANCER AGENT
The present invention thus provides microbial products as anticancer agents and pharmaceutical compositions comprising isolated and purified proteins or synthetic peptides, and methods of using them for the treatment of cancer. It is very important to develop new anticancer bioactive pept...
The present invention provides a device comprising stent or catheter containing biofilms of microorganisms useful in cancer therapy. The microorganisms may be attenuated in their virulence factors and with cloned genes encoding specific proteins with anticancer activity. The biofilm-containing devices may be encased...
