摘要:
The invention relates to a method for preparing organic-chemical compounds, characterized in that the following steps are carried out: a) fermentation of a microorganism secreting an L-amino acid, which microorganism contains an overexpressed polynucleotide coding for a polypeptide having polyphosphate-dependent NAD+ kinase activity, in a fermentation medium, to form a fermentation broth, b) accumulation of said compound in said fermentation broth and/or in the cells of said microorganism. The invention relates to a method for preparing organic-chemical compounds by fermentation of a microorganism in which a polypeptide having polyphosphate-dependent NAD+ kinase is overexpressed.

A sialyltransferase having the following physico-chemical properties:(1) Activity: transfers sialic acid from a sialic acid donor selectively to a 3-hydroxyl group of a galactose residue contained in lactosylceramide as a sialic acid acceptor to produce ganglioside GM3; (2) Optimal Reaction pH: 6.0 to 7.0; and (3) Inhibition and Activation: the activity increases at least 1.5 times with 10 mM of Mn2+ as compared with the case in the absence thereof.
摘要:
Nucleic acid molecules from Cannabis sativa (cannabis, hemp, marijuana) have been isolated and characterized, and encode polypeptides having aromatic prenyltransferase activity. Specifically, the enzyme, CsPT1, is a geranylpyrophosphate olivetolate geranyltransferase, active in the cannabinoid biosynthesis step of prenylation of olivetolic acid to form cannabigerolic acid (CBGA). Expression or over-expression of the nucleic acids alters levels of cannabinoid compounds. The polypeptides may be used in vivo or in vitro to produce cannabinoid compounds.

Disclosed are the LYS1, LYS2, LYS4, LYS5, and LYS9 genes encoding various enzymes in the lysine biosynthesis pathway of Pichia pastoris. The loci in the Pichia pastoris genome encoding these enzymes are useful sites for stable integration of heterologous nucleic acid molecules into the Pichia pastoris genome. The genes or gene fragments encoding the particular enzymes may be used as selection markers for constructing recombinant Pichia pastoris.

The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for improving various plant growth characteristics by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a LDOX (leucoanthocyanidin dioxygenase) polypeptide, a nucleic acid encoding a YRP5, a nucleic acid encoding a CK1 (Casein Kinase type I) polypeptide, a nucleic acid encoding a bHLH12-like (basic Helix Loop Helix group polypeptide, a nucleic acid encoding an ADH2 polypeptide or a nucleic acid encoding a GCN5-like polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding an LDOX polypeptide, or a YRP5 polypeptide, or a CK1 polypeptide, or a bHLH12-like polypeptide, or an ADH2 polypeptide, or a GCN5-like polypeptide, which plants have improved growth characteristics relative to corresponding wild type plants or other control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in the methods of the invention. The invention also provides hitherto unknown CK1-encoding nucleic acids and hitherto unknown bHLH12-like-encoding nucleic acids useful in per-forming the methods of the invention.
摘要:
Transgenic soybean seed having increased total fatty acid content of at least 10% and altered fatty acid profiles when compared to the total fatty acid content of non-transgenic, null segregant soybean seed are described. DGAT genes from oleaginous organisms are used to achieve the increase in seed storage lipids.

The invention relates to the cDNA and deduced amino acid sequence of the Coactivator Associated arginine (R) Methyltransferase protein, CARM1. A method is described for the use CARM1 to regulate gene expression in vivo. CARM1 has also been used to methylate arginine residues of histones, synthetic peptides, and other proteins. A method to use CARM1 to screen for drugs that inhibit its methyltransferase activity is also described, as is a method to screen for drugs that modulate CARM1's interactions with other proteins.
