  • Serine proteases with altered sensitivity to activity-modulating substances
    Publication number: 20060269538
    Abstract: The present invention provides variants of serine proteases of the S1 class with altered sensitivity to one or more activity-modulating substances. A method for the generation of such proteases is disclosed, comprising the provision of a protease library encoding polynucleotide sequences, expression of the enzymes, screening of the library in the presence of one or several activity-modulating substances, selection of variants with altered sensitivity to one or several activity-modulating substances and isolation of those polynucleotide sequences that encode for the selected variants.

  • Nucleic acid molecules encoding starch degrading enzymes
    Publication number: 20060236426
    Abstract: Nucleic acid molecules encoding starch degrading enzymes are provided. Moreover, vectors, host cells and plant cells transformed by the herein-described nucleic acid molecules and plants containing them are provided. Furthermore, methods are described for preparing transgenic plants which show increased or reduced starch degradation.

  • Biological entities and the pharmaceutical and diagnostic use thereof
    Publication number: 20050175581
    Abstract: The present invention provides method for the treatment of a disease by applying a medicament comprising a protease with a defined specificity is capable to hydrolyze specific peptide bonds within a target substrate related to such disease. The proteases with such a defined specificity can further be used for related therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
