The ligation clip applicator and ligation clip design are provided which are particularly applicable to placement of a surgical ligation clip during a laparoscopic surgical procedure. The clip includes a support member and a clamping arm having enlarged portions thereon. The applicator device has a magazine including first and second longitudinally extending partially closed channels within which the enlarged portions of the support member and the clamping arm are received with the clip held in an open position. First and second articulated jaws are attached to the magazine and have first and second channel extensions therein aligned with the first and second channels of the magazine, so that a clip can be received from the magazine in the jaws with the first and second enlarged portions of the support member and the clamping arm being received in the first and second channel extensions of the jaws. The channel extensions include first and second releasing openings. The jaws are closed about a vessel to pre-clamp the vessel. The clip is pushed forward into the jaws to a position where the enlarged portions of the support member and the clamping arm are aligned with the releasing openings and the support member and the clamping arm are released allowing the support member and the clamping arm to move toward each other to ligate the vessel therebetween.

The present invention pertains to novel oligonucleotide compounds for use in various biological assays, such as nucleic acid amplification, ligation and sequencing reactions. The novel oligonucleotides comprise a ribonucleic acid domain and a blocking group at or near the 3′ end of the oligonucleotide. These compounds offer an added level of specificity previously unseen. Methods for performing nucleic acid amplification, ligation and sequencing are also provided. Additionally, kits containing the oligonucleotides are also disclosed herein.

The present invention relates to an isolated polynucleotide of the complete chromosome of Bacillus licheniformis. The present invention also relates to isolated genes of the chromosome of Bacillus licheniformis which encode biologically active substances and to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the genes as well as methods for producing biologically active substances encoded by the genes and to methods of using the isolated genes of the complete chromosome of Bacillus licheniformis.

Disclosed are methods and systems for determining the three-dimensional structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. More specifically, disclosed are methods and systems for obtaining chromatin structural information by surface immobilization, i.e tethering crosslinked protein:DNA complexes and/or ligated DNA complexes to media such as beads, gels, and or matrices during the conformation capture assay. In general, the method includes contacting a cell with a cross-linking reagent to cross-link DNA and protein in the cell; lysing the cell, producing cross-linked protein:DNA complexes by cutting the chromatin using a chemical, physical or enzymatic method, substantially immobilizing the cross-linked protein:DNA complexes, ligating the cross-linked protein:DNA complexes intramolecularly such that the ligated protein:DNA complexes represent structural organization of the chromatin; characterizing the ligated DNA by sequencing or other methods; and identifying any structural organization of the chromatin. The structural organization preferably includes information relating to interacting loci of the chromatin.

Disclosed are processes for the synthesis of GLP-1 peptides, such as liraglutide and semaglutide, and a process for purifying liraglutide.

The present invention relates to recombinant expression of defensin antimicrobial peptides in fermentation of filamentous fungi.

The present invention provides methods of cleaving a nucleic acid strand to initiate, assist, monitor or perform biological assays.

The present invention relates to methods for degrading or converting a cellulose-containing material, comprising: treating the cellulose-containing material with an effective amount of a cellulolytic enzyme composition comprising a polypeptide having cellulolytic enhancing activity, and one or more (several) components selected from the group consisting of a CEL7 polypeptide having endoglucanase activity, a CEL12 polypeptide having endoglucanase activity, a CEL45 polypeptide having endoglucanase activity, a CEL7 polypeptide having cellobiohydrolase activity with a cellulose binding domain, and a CEL7 polypeptide having cellobiohydrolase activity without a cellulose binding domain. The present invention also relates to such cellulolytic enzyme compositions.

The present invention concerns a detergent and a pharmaceutical composition comprising a deoxyribonuclease (DNase), wherein the DNase is obtained from a fungal source. It further concerns a laundering method and the use of DNase. The present invention further relates to polypeptides having DNase activity, as well as methods of producing the polypeptides.

Provided are processes for treating crop kernels which comprising the steps of a) soaking kernels in water to produce soaked kernels; b) grinding the soaked kernels; c) treating the soaked kernels in the presence of a polypeptide having protease activity.

A bacterial host cell comprising at least two copies of an amplification unit in its genome, said amplification unit comprising: i) at least one copy of a gene of interest, and ii) an expressible conditionally essential gene, wherein the conditionally essential gene is either promoterless or transcribed from a heterologous promoter having an activity substantially lower than the endogenous promoter of said conditionally essential gene, and wherein the conditionally essential gene if not functional would render the cell auxotrophic for at least one specific substance or unable to utilize one or more specific sole carbon source; methods for producing a protein using the cell of the invention, and methods for constructing the cell of the invention.

The present invention provides improved methods of producing S2A (or S1E) proteases in Gram-positive expression host cells, the method comprising the steps of (a) cultivating in a fed-batch fermentation a Gram-positive cell comprising at least one polynucleotide encoding the heterologous S2A/S1E protease under conditions conducive for production of the protease, wherein at least 20% of the duration of said cultivating takes place at a temperature of below 36.5OC; and (b) recovering the protease.

The invention discloses an endoscope tie gun and an application method thereof, which can be applied in the medical field. A medical lashing band is utilized to bind disease carrier tissues. The gun body of the tie gun comprises a gun handle, a gun head and a long gun barrel which can penetrate into a disease carrier, wherein a similar T-shaped trigger structure is arranged in front of the gun handle of the gun body and is provided with a transverse transmission chute which can be matched with a raised line arranged on the long gun barrel of the gun body to realize transverse reciprocating dragging between the trigger structure and the gun body. The invention has the beneficial effect that the direct dragging transverse transmission is adopted between the gun handle of the endoscope tie gun and the trigger; the invention has the characteristics of reasonable design, simple structure, convenient operation, favorable binding effect and the like; a cutter can cut off a ribbon according to the practical used length, has reliable ligation effect and especially has better fastening and ligation effect on thicker ligation objects. Because of directly aiming at minimal invasion or endoscope operations, the invention has direct and obvious effect, solves the problem that binding grows out of nothing, saves operation time, further perfects minimal invasion idea and provides further guarantee for operation safety.
