Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090317866Methods for Increasing Expression of Genes In a Fungal Cell - The present invention relates to methods for producing a polypeptide, comprising: (a) cultivating a fungal host cell in a medium conducive for the production of the polypeptide, wherein the fungal host cell comprises a first polynucleotide comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the polypeptide operably linked to a copper-inducible promoter sequence comprising a copper-responsive upstream activation sequence activated by a copper-dependent trans-acting transcription factor and a second polynucleotide comprising one or more (several) additional copper-responsive upstream activation sequences operably linked upstream to the promoter sequence, wherein the promoter sequence is foreign to the nucleic acid sequence encoding the polypeptide and the copper-responsive upstream activation sequences are responsible for copper-induced transcription of the promoter sequence, and a third polynucleotide comprising at least one copy of a gene encoding the copper-dependent trans-acting transcription factor; and (b) isolating the polypeptide from the cultivation medium.12-24-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090029440Lipase Variants - The invention provides variant lipases, preferably, variants with reduced tendency to odor generation obtained by introducing mutations in one or more regions identified in a parent lipase.01-29-2009
20090217463DETERGENT COMPOSITION COMPRISING LIPASE - This invention relates to compositions comprising certain lipase enzymes and processes for making and using such compositions, including the use of such compositions to clean and/or treat a situs.09-03-2009
20090253171Methods For Producing Secreted Polypeptides Having Biological Activity - The present invention relates to methods for producing a polypeptide having biological activity, comprising: (a) cultivating a fungal host cell in a medium conducive for the production of the polypeptide, wherein the fungal host cell comprises a first polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide operably linked to a second polynucleotide encoding a variant signal peptide or a variant prepropeptide; and (b) isolating the secreted polypeptide having biological activity from the cultivation medium.10-08-2009
20100162491DETERGENT COMPOSITIONS - The present invention relates to detergent compositions comprising a detergent ingredient and a lipase variant with reduced potential for odor generation obtained by introducing mutations in one or more regions identified in a parent lipase.07-01-2010
