摘要:
In One aspect, the invention provides methods for Chromosomal Saturation Mutagenesis (CSM) comprising generating randomly mutated, overlapping segments for an entire chromosome using error-prone PCR or other techniques, and libraries of nucleic acids made by these methods.
摘要:
The present invention provides mutants of DNA polymerases having an increased rate of incorporation of nucleotides into nucleic acids undergoing polymerization and having an enhanced resistance to inhibitors of DNA polymerase activity. The mutant polymerases are well suited for fast PCR applications, for PCR amplification of targets in samples that contain inhibitors of wild-type polymerases, and for fast PCR amplification of samples containing DNA polymerase inhibitors. In exemplary embodiments, the mutants are mutants of Taq DNA polymerase.
摘要:
In one aspect, the invention is directed to polypeptides having an amylase and/or glucoamylase activity, polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, and methods for making and using these polynucleotides and polypeptides. In one aspect, the polypeptides of the invention can be used as amylases, for example, alpha amylases, to catalyze the hydrolysis of polysaccharide, oligosaccharide or starch into sugars. In one aspect, the invention provides delayed release compositions comprising an desired ingredient coated by a latex polymer coating. In alternative embodiments, enzymes are used to make biofuels, e.g., ethanol, butanol, propanol, or a gasoline-ethanol mix, including a bioethanol, biopropanol, biobutanol, or a biodiesel, or for any form of fuel or biomass processing.
