Patents by Inventor Christel Jorgensen

Christel Jorgensen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • VARIANT LIPOLYTIC ENZYMES
    Publication number: 20080311242
    Abstract: The inventors have developed improved polypeptides by substituting or deleting specified amino acids in fungal lipolytic enzymes. More particularly, the polypeptides result in a reduction of dough stickiness when they are added to a dough. The polypeptides may particularly have activity on polar lipids.

  • Cgtase variants
    Publication number: 20070148287
    Abstract: The inventors have developed a method of modifying the amino add sequence of a CGTase to obtain variants. The variants may form linear oligosaccharides as an initial product by starch hydrolysis and a reduced amount of cyclodextrin and may be useful for anti-staling in baked products. The method is based on a comparison of three-dimensional (3D) structures of the CGTase with the structure of a maltogenic alpha-amylase where one or both models includes a substrate. The invention also provides novel CGTase variants.

  • Screening for lipolytic enzymes or amidase activity
    Publication number: 20070122862
    Abstract: A method of testing samples for their enzymatic activity for hydrolysis of a particular ester or amide bond in a substrate uses a test substrate with one or more polyunsaturated fatty acyl groups linked through amide or ester bonds. The release of the polyunsaturated fatty acid is detected by the use of a lipoxygenase to convert the polyunsaturated fatty acid into a hy-droperoxide which is then detected, e.g. through a color reaction.

  • Method for selecting lipolytic enzyme
    Publication number: 20060057250
    Abstract: A method of screening lipolytic enzymes is used to identify candidates for a baking additive which can improve the properties of a baked product when added to the dough. The screening method involves contacting the enzyme with N-acyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine (APE) or N-acyl lyso-phosphatidyl ethanolamine (ALPE), and detecting hydrolysis of an ester bond in the APE or ALPE.
