Title: Vectors, cell lines and their use in obtaining extended episomal maintenance replication of hybrid plasmids and expression of gene products
Inventor: ENE USTAV
IPC: C12N5/10
Filed: 2006-02-13
Granted: 2011-07-07
Abstract: This disclosure shows that the BPV-1 E2 protein-dependent minichromosome maintenance element (MME) comprised of E2 multimeric binding sites can provide the stable maintenance replication function to the mouse polyomavirus (PyV) core origin plasmids in the presence of BPV-1 E2 protein and PyV large T-antigen (LT). MME dependent plasmids are lost with the frequency of 6% per generation. Significanly long stable maintenance replication can also be provided without selection pressure. We also demonstrate that PyV core origin maintenance function/replication activation could be provided by Epstein-Barr virus Family of repeats and EBNA1 protein. The maintenance of the Polyomavirus core origin plasmid was characterized by 13% loss of the plasmid during one cell generation in the case of EBV FR harboring plasmids. Our data clearly indicate that maintenance functions from different viruses can provide segregation/partitioning function to different heterologous origins in variety of cells and can be used in expression of gene products.

Abstract: A process is specified for the biological generation of methane (CH), which process is firstly environmentally friendly and inexpensive, and secondly avoids the use of fossil deposits. The process is divided into two steps, wherein first hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) are generated from carbon dioxide (CO) and water (HO) by algae with the action of light. In the second step, methane (CH) is isolated by methanogenesis bacteria from the hydrogen (H) which is generated and from carbon dioxide (CO). To increase the yield of the process, interfering intracellular oxygen (O) can be bound in the algae and/or in the methanogenesis bacteria.
