Abstract: The invention relates to a method for selecting proteins stable in non-standard physicochemical conditions (temperature, pressure, pH, osmolarity, salinity, solvent, etc.) comprising the expression, in an extremophilic microorganism, of variants of the protein of interest in the form of a fusion protein with a reporter protein which is stable in extreme conditions and acts as a selection marker.

Abstract: The present invention provides T. reesei endoglucanase I variants exhibiting improved cellulase and/or xylanase activity, in particular at 30° C. and/or pH 6. These variants are particularly useful in industrial processes comprising simultaneous degradation of cellulosic biomass into monomeric sugars and fermentation of said sugars, for example to produce ethanol.

Abstract: The present invention provides the field of enhancing proteins and in particular to that of proteins enhanced by molecular change. It provides a variant of a phytase that is termed enhanced in that is has better thermostability and/or activity than the original phytase. The invention also provides a nucleic acid coding for said variant, a cassette or an expression vector containing said variant, a host cell expressing said variant, a composition comprising said variant and uses thereof, principally in the preparation of food additives and animal feed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to improved human FVIII variants having at least one substitution in the A2 and/or C2 domain. The present invention also relates to their uses in the treatment of hemophilia A, particularly in patients with inhibitors.

Abstract: The invention concerns the field of molecular biology and more particularly that of mutagenesis. It concerns a method of high-rate directed mutagenesis, that is the formation of numerous directed mutants in reduced time and with reduced number of steps. Said method is therefore referred to as massive mutagenesis.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of molecular biology and more particularly that of mutagenesis. The invention has as its object a method of high throughput directed mutagenesis, that is to say, constitution of a large number of directed mutants at a reduced cost, time and number of steps. The invention also relates to the double stranded polynucleotides so obtained and the peptides, polypeptides, or proteins so obtained having one or more improved properties, and the uses of said method.
