Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium stores a program causing a computer to execute: forming a team constituted of a plurality of players who try a specific battle game; determining players who have cleared the specific battle game on the basis of player information of the plurality of players; determining whether or not a reward acquiring condition is satisfied, the reward acquiring condition being satisfied when it is determined that the team includes a first player and a second player, the first player being a player who has cleared the specific battle game, and the second player being a player who has not cleared the specific battle game; and assigning a reward to the first player when it is determined that the reward acquiring condition is satisfied and the specific battle game has been cleared by the team.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium stores a program causing a computer to execute: storing, in a storage unit, a character for which an acquisition condition is satisfied as a possessed character among a plurality of characters including a first character and a second character, each of the plurality of characters including the acquisition condition for acquiring the character, a special ability available in a prescribed game, and a release condition for releasing the special ability; releasing the special ability of the first character when the release condition of the first character is satisfied; releasing the special ability of the second character when the release condition of the second character is satisfied, the acquisition condition of the second character being different from the acquisition condition of the first character, and the release condition of the second character being different from the release condition of the first character; and setting, when the special ability of at least one

Abstract: Provision of a modified promoter derived from a xylanase promoter. A modified promoter comprising a polynucleotide of Xyn3 promoter comprising a polynucleotide that comprises at least one polynucleotide of Xyn1 promoter cis-element or a complementary strand thereof in a region corresponding to the nucleotides at position 374 to 401 of SEQ ID NO:1. The polynucleotide of Xyn3 promoter consist of the following nucleotide sequences: the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1; the nucleotide sequence represented by the nucleotides at position 350 to 1084 of SEQ ID NO:1; or a nucleotide sequence that has an identity of at least 90% therewith and that comprises the sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:2 in a region corresponding to the nucleotides at position 374 to 401 of SEQ ID NO:1. The polynucleotide of Xyn1 promoter cis-element consists of the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:4.

Abstract: A filamentous fungus mutant strain showing improved secretory protein production and a method of producing a protein using the filamentous fungus are provided. The method of producing a protein comprises a step of culturing a filamentous fungus mutant strain in which a function of tubulin is reduced or lost and collecting a protein from a culture product.

Abstract: Provided is a novel xylanase having high xylanase activity. A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence described in the following (a), (b) or (c) and having xylanase activity: (a) the amino acid sequence set forth in positions 23 to 404 of SEQ ID NO: 2; (b) an amino acid sequence having at least 90% identity to the amino acid sequence set forth in positions 23 to 404 of SEQ ID NO: 2; (c) an amino acid sequence modified from the amino acid sequence set forth in positions 23 to 404 of SEQ ID NO: 2 by deletion, insertion, substitution, or addition of one or more amino acids.
