  • Fusion protein for controlling epigenomic state, and use thereof
    Patent number: 11479780
    Abstract: Epigenomic states of genome DNA are altered at multiple sites to rapidly change traits by providing a fusion protein including a first region that defines a polypeptide capable of binding sequence-specifically to multiple sites on genome DNA and a second region that defines a polypeptide capable of regulating an epigenomic state.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 21, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 25, 2022
    Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA TOYOTA CHUO KENKYUSHO

  • Method of inducing genetic recombination, and use therefor
    Patent number: 11464182
    Abstract: A method of inducing genetic recombination, including: allowing a protein having DNA double-stranded cleavage activity to act in cells of a eukaryotic organism which is a polyploidy inherently possessed by a eukaryotic organism. In eukaryotic organisms, various genetic recombination generates new genome set composition. This is done to obtain a population of eukaryotic organisms that hold the modified genomic set.

  • cellobiohydrolases and compositions comprising the same
    Patent number: 8354260
    Abstract: A cellobiohydrolase that can contribute to a synergistic effect on cellulose degradation and the use of such cellobiohydrolase in cellulose degradation are provided. The synergistic effect is achieved by an enzyme preparation for cellulose degradation containing a cellobiohydrolase originating in Phanerochaete chrysosporium and belonging to GHF6 or a variant thereof, and an endoglucanase originating in a different source other than Phanerochaete chrysosporium.
