    Assignee: RHEINISCH-WESTFÄLISCHE TECHNISCHE HOCHSCHULE (RWTH) AACHEN
    Inventors: Felix Jakob, Andrij Pich, Kristin Rübsam, Uwe Conrath, Nursen Sözer, Ulrich Schwaneberg
  • Publication number: 20210238236
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to a novel fusion protein and/or fusion peptide, preferably for use in the separation from and/or detection in an environment of one or more target polymers or plastics, e.g., one or more target polymer fragments and/M or particles or target plastic fragments and/or particles, preferably wherein the one or more target polymer particles or target plastic particles are microplastics; a method of preparing such novel fusion protein and/or fusion peptide, a system and kit comprising the novel fusion protein and/or fusion peptide and a (polymer or non-polymer) carrier or carrier system, a use of the novel fusion protein and/or fusion peptide or of a system and kit as mentioned in the separation from and/or detection in an environment of one or more target polymers or plastics, e.g.

  • Patent number: 8354569
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in an organism by introducing, into the organism, nucleic acids coding for polypeptides with acyltransferase activity. These nucleic acid sequences, if appropriate together with further nucleic acid sequences coding for polypeptides of the fatty acid or lipid metabolism biosynthesis, can advantageously be expressed in the organism. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for the production of oils and/or triacylglycerides with an elevated content of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The invention furthermore relates to the nucleic acid sequences, and constructs, vectors and organisms comprising the nucleic acid sequences. A further part of the invention relates to oils, lipids and/or fatty acids produced by the process according to the invention and to their use.

  • Patent number: 7855321
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in an organism by introducing, into the organism, nucleic acids which code for polypeptides with acyl transferase activity. These nucleic acid sequences, if appropriate together with further nucleic acid sequences which code for polypeptides of the fatty acid or lipid metabolism biosynthesis, can advantageously be expressed in the organism. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for the production of oils and/or triacylglycerides with an elevated content of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The invention furthermore relates to the nucleic acid sequences, nucleic acid constructs, vectors and organisms comprising the nucleic acid sequences according to the invention, vectors comprising the nucleic acid sequences and/or the nucleic acid constructs and to transgenic organisms comprising the abovementioned nucleic acid sequences, nucleic acid constructs and/or vectors.
