膜蛋白及醣蛋白的結構生物學與新藥研發

馬徹實驗室的主要研究重點為以結構生物學探討新興感染疾病及癌症的重要課題,如疫苗設計,抗體及開發新型抗生素。特別是最近年以來對於新冠肺炎病毒的預防與治療,設計新型抗生素藥物等有三項重要貢獻:
一、發現去醣化棘蛋白疫苗能夠誘發針對新冠變種病毒的廣效保護。新冠肺炎病毒表面的主要抗原棘蛋白突變能力很強,而不變的抗原決定區通常被多醣所覆蓋。藉由醣蛋白工程去除棘突蛋白表面干擾免疫辨識的多醣,而製成去醣化棘突蛋白疫苗(SMG)可以誘發針對變異株的更佳的B細胞及T細胞反應,具有潛力成為次世代廣效型新冠肺炎疫苗,另外也以X光結晶學與冷凍電顯等技術,解構出新冠病毒表面上棘狀蛋白的中和抗體結合熱區;
二、發現食用白扁豆萃取物中的一個凝集素(FRIL)可以有效中和各種流感病毒以及各種冠狀病毒。此凝集素與病毒表面的複合型多醣有強烈的結合能力,使病毒無法進入細胞完成複製,進而抑制病毒入侵,有效阻斷病毒傳播。於小鼠實驗驗證,鼻腔吸入此凝集素可以有效保護高致命量之流感病毒感染,並提升存活率;
三、以X光結晶學方法解出細胞壁於分裂時負責調控的膜蛋白FtsBLQ複合體的結構,作為以分裂體為新抗生素標靶的基礎。
