Abstract:
The present invention provides method for the treatment of a disease by applying a medicament comprising a protease with a defined specificity is capable to hydrolyze specific peptide bonds within a target substrate related to such disease. The proteases with such a defined specificity can further be used for related therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides novel methods and compositions for improved production processes of algae cell components. In particular the present disclosure relates to methods for improving the extractability of algae cellular compositions.
Abstract:
The technology disclosed herein relates to novel methods and compositions for the production processes of algae cell components from algae of the genus Scenedesmus. The extractability of algae cellular components is improved and the process is optimized and accelerated by using the enzyme compositions according to the present invention.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to polypeptides comprising protease variants of wild type human neprilysin having an altered specificity and/or activity. In particular the present invention relates to polypeptides comprising protease variants derived from human neprilysin having an increased specificity and/or activity against certain substrates, in particular against amyloid beta.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an insertion, deletion and/or substitution mutein of wild-type Trichoderma reesei β-mannanase having enhanced thermostability, proteolytic stability, specific activity and/or stability at low pH, a nucleic acid molecule encoding said mannanase mutein, a composition comprising said mannanase mutein; a method for its preparation, and its use for food and feed processing, for coffee extraction and the processing of coffee waste, as a supplement to food and feed, for enzyme aided bleaching of paper pulps, as bleaching and/or desizing agent in textile industry, for oil and gas well stimulation by hydraulic fracturing, as detergent, for removal of biofilms and in delivery systems, or for the processing of renewable resources intended for the production of biological fuels.
Abstract:
Nucleic acid molecules encoding starch degrading enzymes are provided. Moreover, vectors, host cells and plant cells transformed by the herein-described nucleic acid molecules and plants containing them are provided. Furthermore, methods are described for preparing transgenic plants which show increased or reduced starch degradation.
