Abstract:
A thermostable glycosidase enzymes derived from various Thermococcus, Staphylothermus and Pyrococcus organisms is disclosed. The enzymes are produced from native or recombinant host cells and can be utilized in the food processing industry, pharmaceutical industry and in the textile industry, detergent industry and in the baking industry.
Abstract:
The invention relates to esterases and to polynucleotides encoding the esterases. In addition methods of designing new esterase method of use thereof are also provided. The esterases have increased activity and stability at increased pH and temperature.

Abstract:
The present application relates to nucleic acids and polypeptides from Cenarchaeum symbiosum. Methods of making the polypeptides and antibodies against the polypeptides are also described.
Abstract:
A grapple attachment for the boom of a hoisting machine having a pair of arms movable between open and closed positions, the arms supporting an endless chain which, when the arms are closed, embrace a pole to be placed so that the pole can be lifted and then rotated about its own axis by a drive motor engaging the chain so that the fittings and the like attached to the pole can be aligned in a selected direction while the pole is held by the grapple.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel peptides that are selective corticotrophin releasing hormone receptor type 2 (CRHR2) agonists and compositions thereof for the treatment, amelioration or inhibition of cardiovascular conditions, including but not limited to heart failure. The novel peptide agonist preferably comprise modifications that include pegylated peptides. Furthermore, the present invention also relates to methods for the treatment and prevention of a disease or disorder related to CRHR2 activity.
