Snake venom-derived platelet aggregation inhibitors can be promising antiplatelet medications that can allow to avoid the risk of bleeding and treatment resistance, particularly in aspirin-resistant patients. Our study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a platelet aggregation inhibitor derived from Echis multisquamatis snake venom in various settings, including in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo. Methods. We examined a polypeptide from Echis multisquamatis venom, purified using a recently developed chromatography protocol, across multiple models. This polypeptide was introduced into platelet-rich blood plasma and administered intravenously to rats. The effects on platelet aggregation were assessed using aggregometry, focusing on ADP-induced aggregation. Results & Discussion. Our findings revealed that a concentration of 0.040 mg/ml significantly reduced platelet aggregation in vitro. Remarkably, this dosage also proved effective when administered intravenously in laboratory animals, reaffirming its potential as a robust antiplatelet agent. In the final phase of our study, the polypeptide demonstrated its ability to inhibit platelet aggregation in blood plasma of pregnant woman with aspirin resistance, presenting a promising avenue for innovative treatment approaches in such cases. Conclusion. This study underscores the potential of the Echis multisquamatis venom-derived polypeptide as a promising antiplatelet agent, effective in diverse scenarios, including aspirin resistance. Further research and clinical trials are imperative to fully harness its therapeutic potential.

Graphene materials are widely used in different technologies and certainly released into aquatic and air surroundings being environmental pollution components. Nitrogen‑doped graphene nanomaterials have great potential for application, in particular, in energy storage, as electrochemical sensors and waste water treatment. Aim. Evaluate neurotoxic risk of nitrogen-doped multilayer graphene. Methods. Here, nitrogen-doped multilayer graphene nanoparticles (N-MLG) were synthesized by means of electrochemical exfoliation of high-purity graphite rods in NaN3-based electrolyte and characterised using TEM, AFM and UV-vis spectroscopy. Neuroactive features of N-MLG were assessed in isolated cortex nerve terminals (synaptosomes) analysing the extracellular level of excitatory neurotransmitter L-[14C] glutamate and inhibitory one [3H]GABA. Results. It was revealed that N-MLG did not affect the extracellular synaptosomal levels of L-[14C] glutamate and [3H]GABA within the concentration range 0.01–0.5 mg/ml, and an increase in a concentration up to 1 mg/ml caused an insignificant increase (tendency to increase) in these levels for both neurotransmitters. To analyse a capability of interaction with heavy metals in biological system, N-MLG was investigated using model of acute Cd2+/Pb2+/Hg2+-induced neurotoxicity in nerve terminals. In was revealed that Cd2+/Pb2+/Hg2+-induced increase in the extracellular level of L-[14C] glutamate and [3H]GABA was not changed by N-MLG. Conclusions. N-MLG does not possess neurotoxic signs and is biocompatible within the concentration range 0.01–1 mg/ml. In biological system, N-MLG did not mitigate/aggravate Cd2+/Pb2+/Hg2+-induced neurotoxicity in nerve terminals.

Aim. The molecular identification of Pycnoporus sanguineus, a previously morphologically mushroom, was done to see the antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhi. Methods. A fragment of the D2 region of 28S rDNA was amplified by PCR, sequenced, and BLAST was performed using the consensus sequence. The maximum identity score was used to build a phylogenetic tree. Agar well diffusion was used to study the antibacterial activity. Results. Sequencing of a 700 base pair PCR amplicon was carried and a 616 base pair of D2 region of large subunit gene was generated. The 100 blast hits on the D2 region of LSU gene showed similarity to Trametes sanguineus voucher PRSC95 (GenBank Accession Number: JN164795.1) based on nucleotide homology and phylogenetic analysis. Antibacterial screening revealed that the crude extract had higher activity on Staphylococcus aureus, with a 3mm to 13mm zone of inhibition and a 100µg minimum inhibitory concentration, compared to Salmonella typhi. Salmonella typhi had a 5 mm to 15 mm zone of inhibition and a 200 µg minimum inhibitory concentration. Conclusion. According to the obtained result, the morphologically identified mushroom Pycnoporus sanguies can be referred to as Trametes sanguine, and it can be used for producinig antibacterial agents.

Modern enzyme biotechnology is a promising and rapidly developing field that requires the latest research on the conditions of enzyme biosynthesis. Optimizing the composition of the nutrient medium depending on the needs of microorganisms and physicochemical factors directly affect the increase in the efficiency of the biosynthesis of amylolytic enzymes, namely the biosynthetic capacity of the strain Streptomyces recifensis var. lyticus 2P-15. Modulation of the biosynthetic activity of strains producing amylolytic enzymes will allow to significantly increase their economic yield. Aim. The purpose of this work is to optimize the biosynthetic capacity of the strain Streptomyces recifensis var. lyticus 2P-15 in terms of the synthesis of amylolytic enzymes and the study of the dynamics of the influence of physical and chemical factors on optimization. Methods. The object of the study is the strain Streptomyces recifensis var. lyticus 2P-15, obtained by three-stage selection of the producer. The simplex method of selecting the composition of the environment was used for the research. The ratio of amylolytic activity to the level of biomass accumulation was taken as the biosynthetic capacity of the strain. A photocolometric method was used to determine amylolytic activity. The level of biomass accumulation was determined by the weight method. Results. It was established that as a result of optimizing the composition of the simplex nutrient medium by the method of mathematical modeling, the biosynthetic capacity increased by 3.63 compared to the control variant. It was also investigated that the optimal concentration of such a component of the nutrient medium as monosodium glutamate С5Н8NO4Na・H2O is 1.5%, which increases the amylolytic activity by 2.63 and increases the accumulation of biomass. Separately, it should be noted the obtained results of the study of the optimal concentrations of heavy metal ions added to the optimized version of the nutrient medium, which allow further research in this aspect to be continued and the use of Co, Mo, Cd ions in the composition of the nutrient medium. With the obtained results, there is an increase in amylolytic activity in the best response by 3.54. The obtained results have theoretical and practical significance for further research in the biotechnology of enzymes. Conclusions. The prospect of further research into the optimization of the biosynthesis of actinomycetes by the simplex method of other aspects of its regulation will be to increase the biosynthetic capacity of the studied strain, which will have a positive effect on the economic output of the production of amylolytic enzyme preparations by obtaining microbial synthesis.

The aim of the work was to investigate detection of different modifications of the green fluorescent protein gene (gfp) in the transgenic tobacco and maize plants by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Methods. Total DNA isolation, PCR, electrophoresis of DNA in agarose gel, bioinformatic resources. Results. Three pairs of primers were used for PCR analysis of tobacco and maize containing wild-type gfp or mutant synthetic gene S65Tpgfp. The primer pair gfp1F-gfp1R interacted with the wild-type gfp gene only. The gfp2F-gfp2R primers interacted with the gfp gene of different modifications both in tobacco and maize. The gfp3F-gfp3R primer pair interacted with the modified S65Tpgfp gene in tobacco DNA, but not with maize samples. Conclusions. Primers for detection of heterologous gfp gene, which were both narrowly specific (only one gene modification could be detected), and universal (more than one gene modification could be detected), were verified. It was shown that the primer pair gfp2F-gfp2R was universal for gfp gene detection both in tobacco and maize plants by PCR. The results obtained with gfp2F-gfp2R were reliably reproducible, so this primer pair is recommended for general use.

One of the important problems of current biotechnology is the usage of enzymes of microbial origin for destruction of poorly soluble compounds and synthesis of new drugs. In recent years a great deal of researchers’ attention has been given to such technologically promising carbohydrases as O-glycosylhydrolases catalyzing the hydrolysis of O-glycoside links in glycosides, oligo- and polysaccharides, glycolipids, and other glycoconjugates. Aim. The review provides data on the position of α-L-rhamnosidases in the modern hierarchical classification of glycosidases and presents data available in the literature on the features of the enzyme structure in various microorganisms. Methods. The publications from the following databases were analyzed: PubMed (https://pubmed.nsbi.nlm.nih.gov/), the Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes (http://www.cazy.org/), the BRENDA Enzyme Database (https://www.brenda-enzymes.org/). Results. Data on the physicochemical, catalytic, and kinetic properties of α-L-rhamnosidases in microorganisms of different taxonomic groups have been systematized. The peculiarities of the substrate specificity of the enzyme depending on the nature of the protein and the growing conditions of the producer are characterized. Conclusions. Functional properties and specificity action of microbial α-L-rhamnosidases suggest their broad-range applicability for food and animal feed processing, as well as obtaining biologically active compounds for the pharmaceutical industry and medicine.
