摘要:
The invention relates to a method for producing an integrant(s) of Bacillus thuringiensis. The invention further relates to such integrants, compositions comprising such integrants, as well as methods for controlling a pest(s) using these compositions.
摘要:
A Bacillus promoter included in DNA sequence (SEQ ID#1), wherein each of N.sup.1 -N.sup.9 is A, T, C or G with the exception that N.sup.2 -N.sup.9 do not together form the sequence ATGTTTCA or GTGTTTCA, or a functional homologue of said sequence.
摘要:
A bacterial cell which in its genome carries an integrated non-replicative DNA construct comprising (1) a DNA sequence of interest, (2) a DNA sequence which is homologous with a region of the genome of the cell, and (3) an origin of replication, the DNA construct lacking a functional gene coding for a factor required to initiate replication from the origin of replication.
摘要:
A method of amplifying in vivo a DNA sequence B present in a genome of a parent cell, comprising (a) integrating in a genome of said cell a DNA construct comprising the structure C-M-A-D, in which both A and C denote a DNA sequence which is homologous with a genomic DNA fragment either flanking or overlapping the DNA sequence B, the sequence C being located in the opposite end the sequence B as compared to A, D denotes a DNA sequence which is homologous with a genomic DNA fragment located distal for C as compared to B, and M denotes a DNA sequence encoding a selection marker, (b) selecting for cells in which the DNA sequence M has been integrated in the genome, which cells comprise, in any orientation, the structure A-B-C-M-A-D and (c) propagating the cells selected in step (b) under increasing selection pressure to obtain a cell which has obtained an increased number of genomically integrated copies of the DNA sequences B and M.
摘要:
Multicopy strains of gram-positive bacteria carrying multiple copies of a DNA sequence of interest may be constructed by use of a method involving introduction of a DNA construct comprising the DNA sequence of interest into the genome of the recipient cell by transposition and subsequent deletion of a marker gene used for selection of the cells having received the DNA construct by a resolution system. The multicopy strains are preferably free from a gene encoding an undesirable marker such as an antibiotic resistance marker.

摘要:
A process for producing an active lipase enzyme in vitro, comprising mixing an inactive or partly active lipase enzyme with a chaperone molecule and subjecting the mixture to denaturation followed by renaturation to produce the active lipase enzyme.
