| 20110000869 | Container Neck With Recesses - A container defines a central longitudinal axis and includes an engagement part that secures a lid to the container. A neck portion is disposed adjacent the engagement part and includes a plurality of recessed portions spaced circumferentially around the neck portion, where each recessed portion has a periphery. The neck portion also includes an outwardly protruding rib disposed along at least a portion of the periphery of at least one recessed portion and an outer surface extending between each pair of adjacent recessed portions. The rib projects outwardly from both the outer surface and the at least one recessed portion. | 01-06-2011 |

| 20100154293 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS RELATED TO THIOESTERASE ENZYMES - The present invention relates to novel mutant thioesterase enzymes and naturally-occurring equivalents thereof, compositions made from such enzymes and uses of thioesterase enzymes. In particular, the present invention provides mutant thioesterase enzymes that have altered properties, for example, altered substrate specificity, altered activity, altered selectivity, and/or altered proportional yields in the product mixtures. The present invention also provides polynucleotides encoding such mutant thioesterase enzymes, and vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention further provides for novel uses of thioesterases in the production of various fatty acid derivatives, which are useful as, or as components of, industrial chemicals and fuels. | 06-24-2010 |

| 20090044288 | Transgenic plants with enhanced agrnomic traits - This invention provides transgenic plant cells with recombinant DNA for expression of proteins that are useful for imparting enhanced agronomic trait(s) to transgenic crop plants. This invention also provides transgenic plants and progeny seed comprising the transgenic plant cells where the plants are selected for having an enhanced trait selected from the group of traits consisting, of enhanced water use efficiency, enhanced cold tolerance, increased yield, enhanced nitrogen use efficiency, enhanced seed protein and enhanced seed oil. Also disclosed are methods for manufacturing transgenic seed and plants with enhanced trait. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20080254484 | Preparation of Deallergenized Proteins and Permuteins - Modified proteins are disclosed that maintain enzymatic and insecticidal activity while displaying reduced or eliminated allergenicity. Epitopes which bind to anti-patatin antibodies were identified, and removed via site directed mutagenesis. Tyrosines were observed to generally contribute to the allergenic properties of patatin proteins. Removal of glycosylation sites was observed to reduce or eliminate antibody binding. | 10-16-2008 |

| 20090209427 | Microbial glyphosate resistant epsps - The present invention is based, in part, on a method for the identification of glyphosate resistant 5-enolpyruvyl-3-phosphoshikimate synthase polypeptides and the isolation of the DNA molecules that encode the polypeptides. Also, chimeric DNA constructs are described that are useful to transform and express the glyphosate resistant 5-enolpyruvyl-3-phosphoshikimate synthase polypeptide in bacteria and plant cells. The invention provides chimeric DNA molecules that are useful to transform plant cells, and the transformed plants, progeny, and parts thereof regenerated from the transformed plant cells. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20100197499 | GLYPHOSATE RESISTANT CLASS I 5-ENDOLPYRUVYLSHIKIMATE-3-PHOSPHATE SYNTHASE (EPSPS) - The compositions and methods disclosed herein provide novel DNA molecules that encode glyphosate resistant EPSPS proteins and plants containing these new proteins. The plants that express the new EPSPS proteins are themselves tolerant to the herbicidal effects of glyphosate. | 08-05-2010 |
