To evaluate an analog library of betaine-type cellular metabolites, which are naturally found in polar fish for survival in subzero temperatures, for preventing denaturation of enzymes during freezing.Comparison of the cryoprotective ability of reported cryoprotectants, such as dimethylsulfoxide, glycerol, ectoine, hydroxyectoine, and trehalose, with betaine-type analogs using alpha-glucosidase revealed that analogs introducing C-3-C-6 alkyl chains into an ammonium cation retained 20 % higher activity than the control cryoprotectants at the same concentration. In particular, the analog possessing triplicate n-butyl chains showed a profound effect. It allowed retention of enzyme activity to 95 % even after 100 freeze-thaw cycles, while addition of the control cryoprotectants decreased the activity to 10-20 %. The cryoprotective ability of betaine-type analogs can be applied not only to alpha-glucosidase but also other enzymes such as beta-glucosidase, alkaline phosphatase, lactose dehydrogenase, sulfatase, and horseradish peroxidase.Synthetic betaine-type metabolite analogs possess practicable cryoprotective ability for various enzymes, and are considerably superior to previously reported cryoprotectants.

The design and synthesis of materials capable of activating the immune system in a safe manner is of great interest in immunology and related fields. Lactobacilli activate the innate immune system of a host when acting as probiotics. Here, we constructed lactobacilli-mimicking materials in which polysaccharide peptidoglycan complexes (PS PGs) derived from lactobacilli were covalently conjugated to the surfaces of polymeric microparticles with a wide variety of sizes, ranging from 200 nm to 3 mu m. The artificial lactobacilli successfully stimulated macrophages without cytotoxicity. Importantly, we found that the size of artificial lactobacilli strongly influenced their immunostimulating activities, and that artificial lactobacilli of 1 mu m exhibited 10-fold higher activity than natural lactobacilli. One major advantage of the artificial lactobacilli is facile control of size, which cannot be changed in natural lactobacilli. These findings provide new insights into the design of materials for immunology as well as the molecular biology of lactobacillus.
