Abstract: The invention relates to a method of prolonging pitch bearing lifetime for a wind turbine as well as the pitch bearing itself. The method comprises the steps of: —stopping the rotor (4) from rotating; —removing a plurality of first fastening means used for mounting the blade (5) to the outer bearing ring (24); —mounting a strengthening arc structure (10) on said outer bearing ring (24), opposite the blade (5); —installing a plurality of second fastening means, thereby connecting said blade (5) and said strengthening arc structure (10) to said outer bearing ring (24).

Abstract: A wind turbine nacelle configured for mounting on a wind turbine tower and housing a rotor-supporting assembly defining a rotation axis. The nacelle comprises a main unit arranged to be connected to a wind turbine tower and housing the rotor-supporting assembly. A crane is placed outside the main unit and connected directly to the main frame.

Abstract: A recombinant micro-organism producing resveratrol by a pathway in which phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) produces trans-cinnamic acid from phenylalanine, cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H) produces 4-coumaric acid from said trans-cinnamic acid, 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL) produces 4-coumaroyl CoA from said 4-coumaric acid, and resveratrol synthase (VST) produces said resveratrol from said 4-coumaroyl CoA, or in which L-phenylalanine- or tyrosine-ammonia lyase (PAL/TAL) produces 4-coumaric acid, 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL) produces 4-coumaroyl CoA from said 4-coumaric acid, and resveratrol synthase (VST) produces said resveratrol from said 4-coumaroyl CoA. The micro-organism may be a yeast, fungus or bacterium including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, E. coli, Lactococcus lactis, Aspergillus niger, or Aspergillus oryzae.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the construction and engineering of cells, more particularly microorganisms for producing PUFAs with four or more double bonds from non-fatty acid substrates through heterologous expression of an oxygen requiring pathway. The invention especially involves improvement of the PUFA content in the host organism through fermentation optimization, e.g. decreasing the temperature and/or designing an optimal medium, or through improving the flux towards fatty acids by metabolic engineering, e.g. through over-expression of fatty acid synthases, over-expression of other enzymes involved in biosynthesis of the precursors for PUFAs, or codon optimization of the heterologous genes, or expression of heterologous enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the precursor for PUFAs.
