20130078686 | PRODUCTION AND SECRETION OF FATTY ACIDS AND FATTY ACID DERIVATIVES - The invention relates to acyl-CoA-independent methods of producing fatty alcohols in recombinant host cells engineered to express an alcohol-forming acyl-ACP reductase. The recombinant host cells may be photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria. Isolated nucleic acid molecules, vectors, and recombinant host cells expressing an alcohol-forming acyl-ACP reductase, and systems for producing fatty alcohols via an acyl-CoA-independent pathway, are also provided. Also provided are microorganisms engineered for the secretion of fatty acids and fatty acid derivatives, including fatty alcohols, and methods of producing fatty acid derivatives using such engineering microorganisms. | 03-28-2013 |
20140186842 | NANNOCHLOROPSIS SPLICED LEADER SEQUENCES AND USES THEREFOR - The present invention relates to the culture and manipulation of microorganisms for biotech applications, and is based on the discovery and characterization of spliced leader sequences identified in transcripts from | 07-03-2014 |
20140220638 | ALGAL MUTANTS HAVING A LOCKED-IN HIGH LIGHT ACCLIMATED PHENOTYPE - Mutant photosynthetic microorganisms having reduced chlorophyll and increased photosynthetic efficiency are provided. The mutants have a locked in high light-acclimated phenotype, in which many of the photosynthetic parameters characteristic of high light acclimated wild type cells are found in the LIHLA mutants when acclimated to low light, such as reduced chlorophyll, reduced NPQ, higher qP, higher E | 08-07-2014 |
20140322780 | Methylbutanol as an Advanced Biofuel - This invention describes genes, metabolic pathways, microbial strains and methods to produce methylbutanol and other compounds of interest from renewable feedstocks. | 10-30-2014 |
20150240236 | RECOMBINANT RNA PARTICLES AND METHODS OF USE - The present invention provides compositions and methods for the production and delivery of recombinant double-stranded RNA molecules (dsRNA) targeting pathogen sequences, which can be useful as an RNA vaccine. The compositions contain engineered double-stranded RNA particles (dsRPs) that can contain a double-stranded RNA molecule that can be a genome or portion of a genome, which can be enclosed in a capsid or coat protein. The dsRNA molecule also comprises an RNA sub-sequence that binds to a target sequence of a pathogenic organism. The dsRPs can be derived from wild-type viral organisms. The delivery of the dsRPs of the invention to an organism provides a protection to the organism from the pathogen. | 08-27-2015 |
