With golden arches on every street corner and video games to keep children on the couch for days, childhood obesity is a quickly spreading problem in today's society. Poor eating and sedentary habits can lead to the predisposition of chronic illnesses and eventually premature death. This publication intends to educate minority preschool age children about issues involving nutrition, exercise, and the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle. The group plans to create an activity book for interactive learning with the goal of decreasing childhood obesity.

NIH R03: Creatine (Cr) transporter deficiency syndrome affects approximately 1 million people, resulting in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and X-linked intellectual disability (XLID). SLC6A8 codes for the Cr transporter, without which Cr cannot pass the blood-brain barrier, or enter neuronal cells, thus hindering ATP production and metabolic activity in the brain. The neuropathology of Creatine deficiency syndrome is not fully understood. We propose that Creatine is a novel neuromodulator and GABA antagonist at GABA A receptors.

3 Year NSF Grant (2015-2018).

Synthetic biology can help meet growing demand for sustainable advanced biofuels. Complex pathways for the total synthesis of biofuels are routinely expressed in microbial systems. This project seeks to improve the production of biodiesel in an engineered strain of bacteria by optimizing how renewable substrates are utilized through the use of protein-based metabolite sensors and enzymes with appropriate properties. An additional aim of the project is use this feedback control to make pathways more robust in their ability to maintain high production rates in spite of changing environmental or process conditions. The results of this project may also apply to other metabolic pathways that produce sustainable fuels and chemicals, allowing translation of biotechnologies from the lab to industry with more certainty and fewer complications. The research performed will be the focal point of our efforts to engage women potentially interested in STEM careers, in the state of South Carolina. We aim to integrate education and research by providing training opportunities for students already in STEM, and local outreach to young women who might become more interested in STEM. Finally, this research will be integrated into a new elective course on protein and metabolic engineering offered at Clemson University.

This project uses simple unsteady-state kinetic models to rationalize protein engineering and synthetic biology based improvements to E. coli biodiesel production. Modeling suggests inefficiency due to pathway imbalance. Better flux distributions can be achieved through simple genetic and protein engineering efforts. Enzymes with catalytic efficiencies predicted to improve biodiesel production will be used. Critical enzymes will be engineered using directed evolution to relieve pathway bottlenecks. Protein-level feedback control will be engineered and combined with genetic level feedback control to allow pathway fluxes to remain high in spite of short and long time-scale metabolic perturbations. The combination of genetic and protein-level dynamic control will allow biofuel and other chemical producing systems to withstand perturbations from environmental variation and scale-up conditions without suffering large losses in yield and efficiency. The results of this project may lead to more general methods for balancing pathways that does not rely on explicit kinetic or flux data.

AFOSR YIP: 3 Year Grant (2015-2018).

Thermostable enzymes from thermophilic extremophiles allow prolonged use of these biocatalysts; however, their activity is greatly compromised at lower temperatures encountered in the environment and physiological systems. Psychrophilic enzymes have evolved more efficient catalytic mechanisms to act efficiently at cold temperatures, but are typically unstable at higher temperatures or over extended times. The combination of these properties would result in enzymes that are highly thermostable and optimally active across a broad temperature range. The goal of the research in this proposal is to develop a set of rational design principles for the engineering the cold-activity into mesostable and thermostable enzymes. Through the careful analysis of biochemical and biophysical data of psychrophilic, mesophilic, thermophilic lipases, we will determine important characteristics and quantitative relationships between these properties and the cold-activity. Our hypothesis is that active site proximal flexibility is an important determinant of cold-activity and can be engineered into thermophilic enzyme scaffolds with minimal loss of thermostability. We will test our hypothesis by engineering a thermostable and mesostable lipase to be broadly active across a wide temperature range and to withstand substantial thermal challenge. Mutants obtained through rational protein engineering, loop grafting, and directed evolution will be used to further refine the quantitative design rules we will establish. To extend the usefulness of this framework, we will engineer thermostable enzymes for materials synthesis and degradation, including organophosphorus hydrolases and cuntinases. This research should make it possible to quickly and rationally engineer most any thermostable enzyme to retain its activity across a wide temperature range. Therefore, enzymes may be deployed with optimum performance and extended lifetimes critical to USAF goals.

Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA). 3 Year Grant with 2 Option Years (2016-2019). Immobilization is frequently used to enhance the lifetime and stability of enzymes, yet a fundamental understanding of the interactions between enzymes, covalent linkers, and complex polymeric surfaces enabling accurate prediction of system performance is lacking. While prediction of enzyme behavior in simple monolayers is well described, these capabilities fall short on complex polymer surfaces used in electrochemical or optical biosensors. The stabilizing effects of enzyme immobilization results in enzymes with longer useful lifetimes; however, this can come at the expense of specific enzyme activity, due to mass transfer limitations caused by orientation effects, the complex interplay between enzyme-linker-substrate interactions, and immobilization related unfolding of enzyme structure. Current approaches for addressing enzyme immobilization focus mostly on solutions to specific problems, i.e., on a specific combination of enzyme, linker, and immobilization chemistry. A broadly applicable understanding of the molecular scale interactions between enzyme-linker-substrate is required to make accurate predictions of the best overall immobilization strategy. This project uses a combined experimental and computational approach to understand the fundamental interactions in enzyme-linker-substrate systems. By combining experimental and simulation data sets, we will identify how particular characteristics of the enzyme, the linker, and the polymeric surface influence structure and activity. This enzyme activity-linker-surface relationship can be used to predict the effect of immobilization strategy on the activity of the enzyme, with application to enzymes for specific detection of tributyl phosphate solvent used in nuclear fuel processing.

Our CI project was featured in an article in the Seneca Journal released on August 3. The article includes a picture of my doctoral student, Caitlin Torrence, with one of the participants in our program. Program offers a break for caregivers FacebookTwitterShare Posted on August 3, 2016 By Stephanie Jadrnicek The Journal SENECA — What began as a practicum for a Clemson University professor has grown into a respite program for caregivers. Volunteer Caitlin Torrence helps participant George Moore with his art activity at the Golden Corner Respite Care Program. (Rex Brown | The Journal) The Golden Corner Respite Care Program offers a break for caregivers while providing brain-stimulating and socially interactive activities for their loved ones who suffer from early- to mid-stage dementia. Mike Teague has been taking his mother, Nancy, to the program for the last two months. But instead of using the time to catch up with tasks, go to medical appointments or simply rest, Mike stays and hangs out with his mom. “It’s respite care, and a lot of the caregivers get their respite somewhere else. I stay because it’s still respite for me,” he said. “So much of our time together away from here is negative — ‘you can’t eat that now’ or ‘don’t put that there.’ This is a time for me to be with her when it’s all positive — it enhances the relationship.” Nancy moved in with Mike about two months ago, and mother and son are trying to figure out what that looks like. He said the best part of the program is the continuity. Every Thursday it’s basically the same people providing the same things — entertaining and educational crafts for seniors. So it’s something both he and his mother can count on and look forward to each week. A trial run of the program is taking place this summer, but the official start is Sept. 8. The program will run weekly every Thursday at Episcopal Church of the Ascension in Seneca. Program director Kathy Birkett said there are very few respite care programs in the state. Golden Corner will be the third of its kind. She and several others have been meeting over the last year and half to develop the program. “We knew what we needed to do. We just needed to find the funding to get it going,” she said. “This type of service is so lacking that it was one of the Lieutenant Governor’s Office on Aging’s incentives to get a program going in the Upstate.” According to the American Association of Retired Persons, more than 770,000 family caregivers in South Carolina provide 737 million hours of free services to their chronically ill, disabled or frail elderly loved ones each year. If the caregivers’ services were replaced by care workers paid $10.04 per hour, the cost would total nearly $7.4 billion each year. The Upstate has seen a surge in the Alzheimer’s population. According to the South Carolina Alzheimer’s Disease Registry, Pickens County has 1,887 individuals with dementia, and Oconee has 1,454. And the state ranks 34th in providing measures of state-level performance of long-term service and support systems that assist older people, adults with disabilities and family caregivers. Birkett said once someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, they may live another 10-20 years, because there’s no cure or treatment. And their caregivers need more support. “So what we’re seeing now are spouses caring for a person with dementia in their home with very little support. There’s some resources, but not a lot,” she said. “And caregivers tend to put the care recipient first, so they’re not taking care of themselves.” With little help, these caregivers burn the candle at both ends. Eventually, their own health begins to decline because they’re not receiving the care they need. “The idea behind this program is to give back the gift of time to our caregivers,” Birkett said. “We give them three hours per week to do what they need to do to care for themselves — to go to a medical appointment, to the beauty shop, visit a friend for lunch or just take a nap.” Birkett said she is thrilled to have a dedicated, caring staff of volunteers. Clemson University Ph.D. candidate Caitlin Torrence is facilitating the weekly meetings. Prior to moving to South Carolina, she and her husband lived in Alaska, where she ran six state-run assisted living health facilities. “We focused a lot on memory care using alternative methods, and I saw how you could make a difference in people’s lives through these approaches,” she said. The activities in the Golden Corner Respite Program range from corn hole and ring toss to word games and arts and crafts. “They get to develop and see a final product they can be proud of, facilitate hand-eye coordination and play games that promote visual and memory stimulation,” Torrence said. “We’re doing a variety of activities, but all of it encourages fun and improves the quality of their lives.” For more information, call (864) 973-7590 or email GoldenCornerRespiteCare@gmail.com.
