摘要:
The cloning and sequencing of the gene which codes for a new pilinic subunit of Bordetella pertussis are described. The aminoacid sequence of the mature subunit, deduced from its necleotide sequence, is similar but not identical to that of the known pilins 2, 3, and 6. Polypeptides having the aminoacid sequence of the mature pilinic subunit or of regions thereof are particularly useful for the development of synthetic acellular vaccines against pertussis.

The mutants of neutral protease (NP) described can retain their enzymatic activities at temperatures at which wild-type neutral protease becomes inactive, the mutants being characterised in that the Gly 189 and/or Gly 147 residues of the aminoacid sequence of NP are replaced by different residues selected from the natural aminoacids.Mutagenised genes of neutral protease which code for the mutants, recombinant plasmids containing the genes, and strains of Bacillus transformed by the plasmids are also described. The mutants of neutral protease having the characteristics described above are particularly useful in the food sector.

摘要:
The present invention provides a human polypeptide homolog of human tankyrase protein (THP) and polynucleotides which identify and encode THP. In addition, the invention provides expression vectors, host cells and methods for its production. The invention also provides methods for the identification of THP agonists/antagonists, useful for the treatment of human diseases, such as human cancer and age related diseases.
