Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro fibrillogenesis of collagen type I in varying ionic and pH conditions
TL;DR: In vitro fibrillogenesis of acetic acid-soluble collagen type I under physiological and varying non-physiological conditions by TEM from negatively stained specimens is studied to study the efficient in vitro formation of D-banded collagen fibrils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alhydrogel® adjuvant, ultrasonic dispersion and protein binding: a TEM and analytical study.
J. Robin Harris,Andrei Soliakov,Richard J. Lewis,Frank Depoix,Allan Watkinson,Jeremy H. Lakey +5 more
TL;DR: It has been found that low quantities of protein tend to cross-link and aggregate the small Alhydogel clusters, in a more pronounced manner than high protein concentrations, and future exploitation of this treatment of Alhydrogel is likely to be of immediate value for more efficient vaccine production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increasing the Potency of an Alhydrogel-Formulated Anthrax Vaccine by Minimizing Antigen-Adjuvant Interactions
Allan Watkinson,Andrei Soliakov,Ashok Ganesan,Karie J. Hirst,Chris S. LeButt,Kelly J. Fleetwood,Peter C. Fusco,Thomas R. Fuerst,Jeremy H. Lakey +8 more
TL;DR: An unexpected role for phosphate buffer is reported in an anthrax vaccine (SparVax) containing recombinant protective antigen (rPA) and aluminum oxyhydroxide (AlOH) adjuvant (Alhydrogel).
Journal ArticleDOI
The structure of Yersinia pestis Caf1 polymer in free and adjuvant bound states.
TL;DR: EM images of Caf1 reveal flexible polymers up to 1.5 microm long (4MDa) and the first images of proteins bound to alhydrogel adjuvant, a polymeric virulence factor and vaccine component of the plague bacterium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reversible non-stick behaviour of a bacterial protein polymer provides a tuneable molecular mimic for cell and tissue engineering.
Ana I. Roque,Andrei Soliakov,Mark A. Birch,Sion R. Philips,Deepan S. H. Shah,Jeremy H. Lakey +5 more
TL;DR: Yersina pestis, the bubonic plague bacterium, is coated with a polymeric protein hydrogel for protection from host defences, which resembles structures found in many eukaryotic extracellular-matrix proteins.
