A series of independent human-induced non-transgenic mutations found at one or more of the Lpx genes of wheat; wheat plants having these mutations in one or more of their Lpx genes; and a method of creating and finding similar and/or additional mutations of Lpx by screening pooled and/or individual wheat plants. The wheat plants disclosed herein exhibit decreased lipoxygenase activity without having the inclusion of foreign nucleic acids in their genomes. Additionally, products produced from the wheat plants disclosed herein display increased oxidative stability and increased shelf life without having the inclusion of foreign nucleic acids in their genomes.

Cleaning compositions having engineered fatty acid alpha-dioxygenases and methods of using said compositions to provide a benefit by converting long chain fatty acids present in soils into 2-hydroperoxy fatty acids or terminal aldehydes.

The object of an embodiment of the present invention is to improve the quality of a tobacco product. The present invention relates to a tobacco plant in which a mutation is introduced in a genome, the mutation causing suppression of a function of a specific endogenous gene.

A peptide with anti-inflammatory activity is described, wherein the peptide comprises at least one amino acid sequence among SEQ ID NO: 2 to SEQ ID NO: 179, the peptide has above 80% homology of amino acid sequence with above-mentioned sequences, or the peptide is the fragment of the above-mentioned peptides. An inflammatory composition comprising the above mentioned peptides is also described. The peptides that have at least one amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 to SEQ ID NO: 179 shows outstanding efficacy in both suppressing inflammation and in prophylactic means, Therefore, the composition comprising those peptides can be used as anti-inflammatory pharmaceutical compositions or as cosmetic compositions, in turn, treating and preventing a variety of different types of inflammatory diseases.

The invention provides compositions and methods improved CAR T cell therapies. Specifically, the invention provides cells with reduced Tet, e.g., Tet2 function or expression, and methods of use therefore. The invention further provides Tet2 inhibitors and methods of use therefore in connection with CAR T cells.

The invention relates to a whole-cell catalyst which expresses a recombinant α-dioxygenase or the combination of a recombinant fatty acid reductase and a phosphopantetheinyl transferase which phosphopantetheinylates the fatty acid reductase, and which expresses, in addition to the α-dioxygenase and/or the combination of fatty acid reductase and phosphopantetheinyl transferase, a transaminase, wherein the phosphopantetheinyl transferase and/or transaminase is preferably recombinant; and also to a process for converting a carboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acid or a monoester thereof to an amine or diamine, comprising the steps of contacting the carboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acid or the monoester thereof with a phosphopantetheinylated fatty acid reductase or an α-dioxygenase and contacting the product with a transaminase.

A detergent composition including an oleic acid-transforming enzyme and a surfactant system. Furthermore, a method of manually washing articles including the steps of: delivering a composition including an oleic acid-transforming enzyme and a surfactant system to a volume of water to form a wash liquor and immersing the soiled articles, in the liquor.

Described herein are methods for the lipoxygenase (LOX)-catalyzed production of aliphatic unsaturated C.sub.10-aldehyde compounds from polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) sources, and the isolation and characterization of novel, preferably bifunctional LOXs from different algae sources and the identification of structurally and/or functionally related LOXs from different bacterial sources. Also described herein are the provision of enzyme mutants derived from the newly identified enzymes, and corresponding coding sequences of the enzymes, recombinant vectors, and recombinant host cells suitable for the production of such LOXs and for performing the novel production methods of aliphatic unsaturated C.sub.10-aldehyde compounds. Further describes herein is the use of particular aldehydes or aldehyde mixtures as a flavor ingredient or ingredient for food or feed compositions.

Provided is a method for producing an unsaturated fatty acid oxide (e.g. ω3 fatty acid oxide) that is new and has more beneficial features compared to conventional technologies. This method uses a lipoxygenase-containing composition (e.g. a lipoxygenase-containing composition derived from beans) as a lipoxygenase enzyme, and also uses a freezing method with organic solvent extraction. The present invention makes it possible to produce an unsaturated fatty acid oxide (e.g. ω3 fatty acid oxide) efficiently and at a low cost. The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition containing an ω3 fatty acid oxide isolated and purified by this method as an active ingredient.
