20090036320 | Rational Design of Binding Proteins That Recognize Desired Specific Sequences - Methods and compositions are provided for creating a binding protein that recognizes a rationally chosen recognition sequence in which a first amino acid has been substituted for a second amino acid using site-directed mutagenesis of a member protein of a set of proteins at an identified position or positions correlated with recognition of a chosen specified target module in the recognition sequence. A system is provided for automating the storage and manipulation of the correlations between positions and types of amino acid residues in the binding protein with specific modules at specified positions in the target recognition sequence and for designing and creating proteins with novel specificities. | 02-05-2009 |
20100159534 | Recombinant Type II Restriction Endonuclease, NmeAIII, and a Process for Producing the Same - A protein is described that has an amino acid sequence characterized by at least 90% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 24, the protein being capable of recognizing a sequence consisting of 5′-GCCGAG-3′ within the double-stranded DNA and cleaving the substrate predominantly at 21/19 nucleotides from the recognition site. A method is also described that utilizes the protein for creating a DNA tag for use as a unique identifier for paired end sequencing of DNA or serial analysis of gene expression. | 06-24-2010 |
20100304462 | Synthetic Binding Proteins - Methods and compositions are provided for creating a binding protein that recognizes a rationally chosen recognition sequence in which a first amino acid has been substituted for a second amino acid using site-directed mutagenesis of a member protein of a set of proteins at an identified position or positions correlated with recognition of a chosen specified target module in the recognition sequence. A system is provided for automating the storage and manipulation of the correlations between positions and types of amino acid residues in the binding protein with specific modules at specified positions in the target recognition sequence and for designing and creating proteins with novel specificities. | 12-02-2010 |
20100330551 | Novel Restriction Endonucleases, DNA Encoding These Endonucleases and Methods for Identifying New Endonucleases with the Same or Varied Specificity - Specified restriction endonucleases have been characterized for the first time by their amino acid and DNA sequences. These sequences and those with at least 90% identity thereto have been used as probes in sequence similarity analyses to identify sequence matches in a sequence database that corresponds to novel restriction endonucleases or isoschizomers. The sequence similarity analyses includes selecting a positive sequence match from any sequence producing an expectation value of less than or equal to e-02. | 12-30-2010 |
20120254213 | Novel Restriction Endonucleases, DNA Encoding These Endonucleases and Methods for Identifying New Endonucleases with the Same or Varied Specificity - Specified restriction endonucleases have been characterized for the first time by their amino acid and DNA sequences. These sequences and those with at least 90% identity thereto have been used as probes in sequence similarity analyses to identify sequence matches in a sequence database that corresponds to novel restriction endonucleases or isoschizomers. The sequence similarity analyses includes selecting a positive sequence match from any sequence producing an expectation value of less than or equal to e−02. | 10-04-2012 |
