Abstract: An aeronautical thrust reverser including a sliding cowl, shutter flaps and deflection cascades. The reverser includes, for each flap, a return member hinged to the sliding cowl, to a driving connecting rod itself hinged to a front frame of the reverser, and to a return connecting rod itself hinged to the flap, the latter being moreover hinged by its rear end to the sliding cowl. The return member, the driving connecting rod and the return connecting rod form an actuation system capable of opening the secondary flow duct in a direct thrust configuration.

Abstract: The object of the invention is a novel plasmidic gene encoding an amylolytic enzyme which after introduction into a microbial strain, favorably bacterial, especially Lactococcus lactis, enables the production of the encoded amylolytic enzyme, the ways of acquiring this gene and the industrial application of the enzyme it encodes.

Abstract: The invention concerns lactic acid bacteria overproducing exopolysaccharides following mutation in the gene coding for ?-phosphoglucomutase. Said mutants are useful, in particular for preparing fermented products or for producing exopolysaccharides.

Abstract: A mutant lactic bacteria with a capacity for overexpressing one or more peptidases, wherein gene codY is inactivated.

Abstract: The nucleic acid coding for an .alpha.-acetolactate synthase from Lactococcus is provided, as well as vectors containing this nucleic acid and the use of these vectors for transforming microorganisms in which the production of .alpha.-acetolactate will be promoted, The nucleic acid comprises one or the other or both of a first segment corresponding to the ilvB gene (which encodes one subunit of .alpha.-acetolactate synthase of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis) and a second segment corresponding to the ilvN gene (which encodes a second subunit of .alpha.-acetolactate synthase of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis).
