老師已將題目寄至各小組負責人信箱中 有問題再和我說囉... 題目如下 : 1. (May 16) There are at least 90 serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae to cause pneumococcal diseases. Although the 23-valent polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine was licensed in 1983, poor immunogenesity was observed in younger children. In contrast, heptavalent polysaccharide-protein conjugate vaccines are effective. Could you make a detailed introduction about the conjugate vaccines? 2. (May 23) Although lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) are serious genetic disorders, enzyme replacement therapy is currently predominant treatment. Could you describes the disadvantages and advantages? Also tell us how the enzyme to treat Pompe's disease is prepared? The product is made by Genzyme Co. and was in the clinical trial Phase III in 2004. 3. (May 30) The glycoprotein, EPO (erythropoietin), is the one of the major products in Amgen Co. that is the most profitable biotech company in the world. Could you explain how the protein drug is prepared? Also tell us about the glycosylation patterns and how they affect the therapeutic activity. 4. (June 6) For most of the sugar containing antibiotics, the presence of sugar moieties is essential to their bioactivity. Could you use vancomycin, erythromycin, telithromycin (HMR3647) as three examples to explain the importance of sugar residues? 5. (June 13) Currently DNA arrays and proteins arrays are well established for various applications. Sugar arrays are now in the developing stage. Could you give at least two methods (developed by different groups) of sugar arrays? Also tell us about their applications. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.109.65.207
