George graduated from Glasgow University in 1988 with an upper second class Honours degree in Agricultural Botany before undertaking a PhD in pharmacology at the University of Kent in conjunction with Pfizer, investigating the mechanisms of action of a novel antifungal compound. Following graduation in 1993, Dr Baillie moved back to Glasgow to Strathclyde University to undertake his first post-doctoral position with Dr Gavin Halbert at the MRC formulation unit to study new lipid based drug delivery systems. Dr Baillie then transferred back to Glasgow University to the laboratory of Dr L. Julia Douglas to focus on novel therapies for the eradication of recalcitrant Candida Albicans infections. Following a chance meeting with Professor Miles Houslay , George agreed to move to the Gardiner Laboratory and became the permanent laboratory manager for a period of 10 years in which time he published over 30 papers on many aspects of the cAMP signaling pathway in disease. Dr Baillie was appointed as a lecturer in 2007 and initiated independent research programmes investigating factors that underpin spatial and temporal cAMP signaling. His major discovery was that phosphodiesterases (enzymes that degrade cAMP) are “compartmentalized”, and it is their location within cells that direct their function. The Baillie lab was the first to discover a specific function for a single isoform of PDE4 (namely PDE4D5 with beta-arrestin desensitizes the beta2-adrenergic receptor) and this was published in Science. His lab has since gone on to ascribe functions to several other PDE4 isoforms and these discoveries have been published in Science, Nature, PNAS, EMBO, Molecular Cell and Current Biology. Dr Baillie was promoted to Reader in 2011. Over the years the Baillie lab has amassed a huge number of biological tools to facilitate research into the function of PDEs and combined with his broad knowledge of and expertise in PDE research, Dr Baillie is uniquely placed within the cAMP signaling field. His current areas of focus are translational and include:

Development of a new class of Phosphdiesterase inhibitors
As targeting and compartmentalization are fundamental to the functioning of PDE4s, current small molecule PDE4 inhibitors generate unpleasant side effects as a result of the universal inhibition of all isoforms. Recently proposed dominant negative and siRNA approaches are also limited by the fact that they are not directed against discretely localized sub-pools of individual PDE4 isoforms. In this regard, future PDE4 isoform-selective inhibitors should be aimed at the cellular targeting of the enzymes rather than their catalytic activity. One such approach has been facilitated by the introduction of a technique pioneered by the Baillie laboratory called peptide array technology. This technique allows rapid determination of the molecular nature of PDE derived protein-protein interactions by using the sequence of one of the interacting partners to generate a library of spotted, immobilized peptides that is probed by a purified, recombinant form of the other protein partner using a simple “far-western” overlay protocol. Positive spots contain putative binding sequences that can then be used to inform mutagenesis studies to map interaction sites in cellular proteins. This approach has been used extensively by the Baillie lab in the cAMP signaling field to map interactions between PDE4 enzymes and the signaling proteins HSP20, DISC1, beta-arrestin, RACK, EPAC, Ndel and the SUMO E3 ligase PIASy. The identified sequences can also be transferred into powerful small peptide agents that have the potential to interfere with PDE4 protein interactions in vivo and help link targets with phenotypes. The beta-arrestin-PDE4D5 disruptor, for example, attenuated recruitment of PDE4D5 the beta2-adrenergic receptor leading to a hyper-phosphorylation of the receptor after stimulation whereas the RACK1-PDE4D5 disruptor was effective in preventing the formation of spreading initiation centers in cancer cells. Clearly, both peptides have potential as therapeutics, the former for the treatment of asthma where PDE4D5 is upregulated following chronic bronchodilator use and is a key regulator of beta2-Ar induced cAMP turnover within human smooth muscle, the latter as an agent to prevent polarization and metastasis of cancer cells.

Inhibition of the Ubiquitin/Proteosome System (UPS inhibitors)
Protein degradation by the proteosome and lysosome is a dynamic process that has been shown to be crucial for cellular homeostasis. Indeed, understanding how proteins are degraded can provide important insights into the process of many diseases. The Baillie lab is a world leader in using peptide array to map sites of protein-protein interaction. The laboratory has two state of the art peptide array robots that can synthesise immobilized peptide libraries for use in studies that seek to fine map sites of association between two proteins of interest. We have a tried and tested assay workflow that allows us to take the information gleaned from the peptide array analysis to develop high affinity peptide disruptors of ubiquitin E3 ligases. We are currently developing two different E3 ligase inhibitors for the treatment of Prostate cancer and Scizophrenia.
