by a core ring structure containing 12 or more carbon atoms to which one or more sugar is
attached.
7. Ansamycins: They are synthesized by condensation of a large number of acetate and
propionate units. Amongst the best known are the rifampicins that are particularly active
against Gram-positive bacteria and mycobacteria.
8. Peptide and other antibiotics: They consist of a chain of amino acids that often have cyclized
ring-like structure. The first such antibiotics isolated were bacitracin and gramicin.
9. Vancomycin: A glycopeptide acts by interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis and is
particularly active against Gram-positive bacteria. Chloramphenicol was first isolated from
a culture of Streptomyces venezuelae in 1947. But, it is now obtained by direct chemical
synthesis and is effective against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, rickettsias and
chlamydias.

RECENT ADVANCS IN BIOPHARMACEUTICALS
Applications of Carrier Erythrocytes in the Delivery of Biopharmaceuticals
The carrier erythrocytes are resealed erythrocytes loaded by a drug or other therapeutic agents.
They have been exploited extensively in recent years for both temporally and spatially controlled
delivery of a wide range of drugs and other bioactive agents, because of their remarkable
degree of biocompatibility, biodegradability and a number of other potential advantages. The
biopharmaceuticals, such as therapeutically significant peptides and proteins, nucleic acid-based
biologicals, antigens and vaccines, are being delivered using carrier erythrocytes.
Important Features of Carrier Erythrocytes
1. A remarkable degree of biocompatibility, particularly when the autologous cells are used for
drug loading
2. Avoidance of any undesired immune responses against the encapsulated drug
3. Complete biodegradability and the lack of toxic product(s), resulting from the carrier
biodegradation
4. Longer lifespan of the carrier erythrocytes in circulation in comparison to the synthetic
carriers
5. Considerable protection of the organism against the toxic effects of the encapsulated drug,
e.g. antineoplasms
6. Protection of the loaded compound from inactivation by the endogenous factors
7. Desirable size range and the considerably uniform size and shape
8. An easily controllable lifespan within a wide range from minutes to months
9. Relatively inert intracellular environment
10. Possibility of targeted drug delivery to the reticuloendothelial system organs
11. Possibility of an ideal zero-order kinetics of drug release
12. Modification of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of the drug
13. Availability of knowledge, techniques and facilities for handling, transfusion and working
with erythrocytes
14. Wide variety of compounds with the capability of being entrapped within the erythrocytes
15. Considerable increase in drug dosing intervals with drug concentration in the safe and effective
level for a relatively long time
16. Possibility of decreasing drug side effects
Practical Approaches to Dose Selection for First-in-Human
Clinical Trials with Novel Biopharmaceuticals
Recent advances in our understanding of disease biology, new therapeutic targets, biomarkers
and innovative modalities have fuelled a dramatic expansion in the development of novel human
therapeutics. Many biotechnology-derived biologicals with high degree of selectivity and affinity
for their intended target are emerging out. As such, they often pose challenges in the development

path to approval. One such challenge is the selection of the first-in-human (FIH) dose. This has
come under critical scrutiny as a result of a FIH trial with a superagonist monoclonal antibody
(TGN1412), which resulted in significant injury to healthy volunteers. Regulatory agencies in such
cases have responded with supplemental guidance for the development of novel therapeutics, which
are required to be rigidly followed.
Research Advances on Transgenic Plant Vaccines
The advancement of genetics molecular biology and plant biology in recent years has facilitated
development of vaccination programs (e.g. genetic engineering subunit vaccine, living vector
vaccine, nucleic acid vaccine, etc.). In particular, the technology of the use of transgenic plants
to produce human or animal therapeutic vaccines has received considerable attention. Expressing
vaccine candidates in vegetables and fruits open up a new approach for producing oral/edible
vaccines. The transgenic plant vaccine is a reality today. There are several advantages of transgenic
plant vaccines, such as low cost, easiness of storage and convenient immune inoculation.
The productions converged in edible tissues can be consumed directly without isolation and
purification.
Recent Advances in Analysis of Peptides and Proteins by Mass Spectrometry
The availability of large amounts of purified recombinant proteins together with the possibility
of altering their structures promises to revolutionize both the approach for treatment of diseases
and our understanding of their molecular bases. Many of these proteins are being developed as
potential therapeutic agents, whereas others are being used for diagnostic purposes and for structural
studies aimed at elucidation of their mechanisms of actions. It is the cellular machinery of the host
organism (e.g. bacteria, yeast or transformed mammalian cells) that defines what modifications
of these proteins shall take place. Fast, sensitive and reliable procedures are necessary to bridge
the analytical gap between protein chemistry and molecular genetics. The analytical tools of mass
spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry, when used in conjunction with conventional chemical
and biochemical techniques, can help to fill this gap, particularly when each approach is used to
take advantage of its unique strength.
The engineering of chloroplast genomes is used against herbicides and pathogens. It is used for
deveopment of edible crop plants and edible vaccines.
Advances in Chloroplast Engineering
The chloroplast is a pivotal organelle in plant cells and eukaryotic algae to carry out photosynthesis
that provides the primary source of glucose. In the last two decades, great progress has been made in
chloroplast engineering. The expression of foreign genes in chloroplasts offers several advantages
over their expression in the nucleus. The high-level expression, transgene stacking in operons and
a lack of epigenetic interference permit stable transgene expression. The transgenic chloroplasts are
generally not transmitted through pollen grains because of the cytoplasmic localization.

Chromatography-Free Recovery of Biopharmaceuticals through
Aqueous Two-Phase Process
One of the distinct advantages of large-scale aqueous two-phase extraction is its easy scale up
together with the possibility of continuous operation using traditional liquid–liquid extractors. This
process of extraction would overcome some of the limitations that chromatographic separations
are facing. The future of aqueous two-phase process (ATPPs) includes the further development
of cost-effective smart polymers, which by responding to a change in the environment (e.g. pH
or temperature) are able to change conformation and thereby permitting the recovery of both the
biomolecule of interest and the polymer in opposite phases. Another breakthrough could be from
the integration of magnetic particles into ATPSs that could speed up phase separation and enhance
process throughput.
