GENE-EDITING COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS TO MODULATE FAAH FOR TREATMENT OF NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS

The disclosure provides systems (e.g., CRISPR/Cas systems) for introducing an edit in a genomic DNA molecule comprising the fatty acid amide hydrolase gene (FAAH) and/or the FAAH pseudogene (FAAH-OUT). Also provided are methods for use of the systems, nucleic acids, delivery systems, and/or compositions described for genome editing to modulate the expression and/or activity of FAAH, for example, in a method of treating chronic pain.

DETERGENT COMPOSITION

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.

COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR TREATING PAIN AND ANXIETY DISORDERS
20230313196 · 2023-10-05 ·

Pain is often in one or more anatomical sites is the predominant complaint of subjects and is often severe enough to require medical or therapeutic intervention. In an aspect, the treatments disclosed herein affect the amount of AEA by altering FAAH expression in a bodily fluid of a subject having a pain and/or anxiety disorder. Treatment methodologies of this disclosure are characterized by a temporal reduction in the expression of the FAAH gene and secondarily a decreased expression of the FAAH enzyme or both as mediated by gene expression modifiers (GEMs).

TEA PLANT CsFAAH6 GENE AND USE THEREOF

The present disclosure provides a tea plant CsFAAH6 gene and use thereof. The tea plant CsFAAH6 gene has a nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 in sequence listing. A protein coded by the tea plant CsFAAH6 gene has an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 in the sequence listing. The CsFAAH6 is highly expressed in mature leaves of tea plants; there is significant negative correlation between theanine content in shoots (one bud and two leaves) of different tea cultivars in different months and expression level of the CsFAAH6; instantaneous silencing of CsFAAH6 expression can significantly increase the theanine content, indicating that CsFAAH6 has a physiological function of theanine degradation and a molecular mechanism thereof.

Detergent composition

A liquid detergent composition, preferably a liquid manual dishwashing detergent composition, comprising one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid producing enzymes selected from the group consisting of: arachidonate lipoxygenases, alpha-dioxygenases, and mixtures thereof, preferably alpha-dioxygenases, a surfactant system and a liquid carrier (i.e., water). Methods of washing comprising the liquid detergent composition are also provided.

DETERGENT COMPOSITION

A surfactant containing detergent composition, preferably a manual dishwashing detergent composition, comprising either a combination of one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid producing enzymes and one or more hydroperoxy fatty acid converting enzymes, or at least one fatty acid processing fusion enzyme comprising at least two catalytic domains: a hydroperoxy fatty acid producing domain and a hydroperoxy fatty acid converting, and methods of using such compositions.
