Publication number: 20160298095Abstract: The present invention relates to the improved production of proteins, preferably enzymes such as lipases. In particular, the invention relates to a mutated signal peptide and nucleotide sequence encoding said signal peptide that results in an increased protein secretion. Further, the invention relates to a mutated promoter that results in an increased protein expression. It was surprisingly found that the combination of the mutated signal peptide and the mutated promoter act synergistically to result in an about 100-fold increased protein production. Nucleic acid molecules, expression vectors and host cells comprising the mutated signal peptide, mutated promoter, or the combination thereof are also encompassed by the invention. Finally, the invention relates to methods and uses of such nucleic acid molecules, expression vectors and host cells for protein preparation.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2015Publication date: October 13, 2016Inventors: Andreas Knapp, Sonja Voget, Rolf Daniel, Karl-Erich Jaeger

Publication number: 20140227698Abstract: To investigate protein-protein interactions, protein foldings and protein localization and also in the secretion of proteins, in vivo reporter proteins are used in biotechnology and in basic research. In order to be able to utilize fluorescence reporters as markers for secretion processes, FMN-binding fluorescence proteins (FbFP) have been developed by us for the first time. The new fluorescence markers can be expressed like GFP in various bacteria. The binding of the chromophore FMN produces a cyan-green fluorescent protein which can be detected in vivo using all customary spectroscopic and microscopic methods. In contrast to GFP, this protein can also surprisingly be secreted via the Sec route and be converted to the fluorescence-active state in the periplasma.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2012Publication date: August 14, 2014Applicant: EVOCATAL GMBHInventors: Thomas Drepper, Karl-Erich Jaeger, Janko Potzkei

Patent number: 6615699Abstract: The described method serves for trimming or cutting during conveyance in a conveying direction (F) substantially in parallel to their main surfaces, flat objects along predetermined cutting lines parallel to the conveying direction (F). The objects are conveyed between a first and a second cutting edge (SK1 and SK2) and are cut by a relative movement of the two cutting edges. The first cutting edge (SK1) is positioned, e.g. stationary, in the plane of a support surface supporting the objects and for each cutting process, the second cutting edge (SK2) is moved past the first cutting edge in such a manner that at least the cutting point on the second cutting edge has a speed component in conveying direction (F) which has the same size as the conveying direction and a speed component perpendicular to the support surface.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2001Date of Patent: September 9, 2003Assignee: Ferag AGInventor: Erich Jäger
