Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for producing recombinant proteins, as well as compositions used in and produced by such methods. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to methods for producing high secreted yields of recombinant proteins, and the compositions provided herein include expression constructs, recombinant vectors, and recombinant host cells that comprise polynucleotide sequences encoding proteins operably linked to recombinant secretion signals that comprise the leader peptide of the ?-mating factor (?MF) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a non-?MF signal peptide.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to pre-treating textiles and methods of preparing textiles in a pre-treated state. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to pre-treating textiles comprising recombinant protein fibers.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for directed to synthetic block copolymer proteins, expression constructs for their secretion, recombinant microorganisms for their production, and synthetic fibers (including advantageously, microfibers) comprising these proteins that recapitulate many properties of natural silk. The recombinant microorganisms can be used for the commercial production of silk-like fibers.

Abstract: An imaging system consisting of a cell-phone with camera as the detection part of an optical train which includes other components. Optionally, an illumination system to create controlled contrast in the sample. Uses include but are not limited to disease diagnosis, symptom analysis, and post-procedure monitoring, and other applications to humans, animals, and plants.
