Abstract:
The present invention concerns the use of fructosyl oligosaccharides as low-calorie sweeteners, and the foods, dietetic products and drinks containing them.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel bacteria and the uses thereof. The invention particularly relates to Deinococcus bacteria and their use in the pharmaceutical or agro-chemical industries, e.g., for degrading biomass and/or producing metabolites or drugs of industrial interest.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to recombinant bacteria and the uses thereof, particularly for the production of ethanol. The invention also relates to methods for the production of such bacteria, as well as to nucleic acid constructs suitable for such production. The invention specifically relates to bacteria lacking a functional LDH gene and/or containing a recombinant nucleic acid encoding a PDC and ADH. The bacteria of this invention may be produced from any stress-resistant bacteria.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of identifying, screening or selecting a compound which binds to the transglycosylation site of a recombinant glycosyl transferase, comprising the steps consisting in: a) bringing said compound into contact with said recombinant protein before, after or at the same time as said recombinant protein is brought into contact with a transglycosylation activity inhibitor, said inhibitor being labeled with a label that generates a direct or indirect signal, b) studying said signal linked to said recombinant protein, the binding of said compound to the transglycosylation site being deduced from the difference between the signal obtained in step b) and the signal obtained in the absence of said compound.
