摘要:
The invention relates to a method for obtaining ethanol from a carbohydrate-containing raw substrate wherein the ethanol that is produced is separated during fermentation using a carrier gas. The invention further relates to the adsorption of the ethanol from the gas phase to an adsorber, the desorption of the ethanol during a subsequent process step, and to the further concentration of the ethanol.
摘要:
The present invention relates to enzymes and processes. In particular, there is described an isolated polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence corresponding to Citrobacter freundii phytase or a homologue, a modified form, a functional equivalent or an effective fragment thereof. There is also described a host cell transformed or transfected with a nucleic acid encoding a bacterial phytase enzyme or a modified form as well as the use of such a phytase or modified form in food or animal feed.

摘要:
The invention concerns a method for the enzymatic treatment of raw polymeric feedstock comprising the following steps: (a) preferably separation of soluble components from the raw polymeric feedstock, (b) treating the raw polymeric feedstock with an enzyme system in order to liberate defined soluble monomeric or oligomeric building blocks from the insoluble raw polymeric feedstock; and (c) separating the defined monomeric or oligomeric building blocks produced in step b) from the remainder of the raw polymeric feedstock. Preferably, the enzyme system used in step b) contains not more than 50%, preferably not more than 20%, more preferably not more than 10%, more preferably not more than 5%, more preferably not more than 2%, more preferably not more than 1% of other enzyme activities apart from the enzyme activity resulting in liberation of said defined monomeric or oligomeric building blocks from the raw polymeric feedstock according to step b). Further aspects of the invention concern the use of “less pure” and thus less costly enzyme systems in subsequent enzymatic treatment steps and methods for determining the optimum sequence of enzymatic treatment steps by analysis of the raw polymeric feedstock used.
摘要:
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.
摘要:
A method for the production of biopolymers with modified properties wherein at least one cycle comprising the following steps is completed: (a) providing a population of single-stranded polynucleotide molecules, wherein individual polynucleotide molecules comprise homologous and heterologous sequence segments and wherein individual ones of said single-stranded polynucleotide molecules can form double-stranded polynucleotide molecules with other ones of said single-stranded polynucleotide molecules within said population; (b) forming double-stranded polynucleotide molecules from the population of single-stranded polynucleotide molecules provided according to step (a) comprising double-stranded polynucleotide molecules with different heterologous sequence segments; (c) partially and exonucleolytically degrading the single-strands of the double-stranded polynucleotide molecules produced according to step (b); and (d) temple-directed single-stand synthesizing the degraded ends of the partially degraded double strand produced according to step (c), wherein steps (c) and (d) may be carried out sequentially or contemporaneously.
