Several strains displayed protease activity on agar plates containing skim milk but were inactive in liquid media. Encapsulation of cells in alginate beads induced protease production. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia emerged as best performer under washing conditions. For identification of wash-active proteases, four extracellular serine proteases called StmPr1, StmPr2, StmPr3 and StmPr4 were cloned. StmPr2 and StmPr4 were sufficiently overexpressed in E. coli. Expression of StmPr1 and StmPr3 resulted in unprocessed, insoluble protein. Truncation of most of the C-terminal domain which has been identified by enzyme modeling succeeded in expression of soluble, active StmPr1 but failed in case of StmPr3. From laundry application tests StmPr2 turned out to be a highly wash-active protease at 45 °C. Specific activity of StmPr2 determined with suc-l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Pro-l-Phe-p-nitroanilide as the substrate was 17 ± 2 U/mg. In addition we determined the kinetic parameters and cleavage preferences of protease StmPr2.}, language = {en} } @article{SchmitzWeber2012, author = {Schmitz, Philipp and Weber, Martin}, title = {Buying and selling behavior of individual investors in option-like securities}, series = {Die Betriebswirtschaft : DBW}, volume = {72}, journal = {Die Betriebswirtschaft : DBW}, number = {5}, publisher = {Sch{\"a}ffer-Poeschel}, address = {Stuttgart}, issn = {0342-7064}, doi = {10.2139/ssrn.2055088}, pages = {409 -- 426}, year = {2012}, abstract = {We analyze the trading behavior of individual investors in option-like securities, namely bankissued warrants, and thus expand the growing literature of investors behavior to a new kind of securities. A unique data set from a large German discount broker gives us the opportunity to analyze the trading behavior of 1,454 investors, making 89,958 transactions in 6,724 warrants on 397 underlyings. In different logit regression, we make use of the facts that investors can speculate on rising and falling prices of the underlying with call and put warrants and that we also have information about the stock portfolios of the investors. We report several facts about the trading behavior of individual investors in warrants that are consistent with the literature on the behavior of individual investors in the stock market. The warrant investors buy calls and sell puts if the price of the underlying has decreased over the past trading days and they sell calls and buy puts if the price of the underlying has increased. That means, the investors follow negative feedback trading strategies in all four trading categories observed. In addition, we find strong evidence for the disposition effect for call as well as put warrants, which is reversed in December. The trading behavior is also influenced if the underlying reaches some exceptionally prices, e.g. highs, lows or the strike price. We show that hedging, as one natural candidate to buy puts, does not play an important role in the market for bank-issued warrants.}, language = {en} } @article{SchmitzWeber2007, author = {Schmitz, Philipp and Weber, Martin}, title = {Buying and selling behavior of individual investors in option-like securities}, pages = {1 -- 36}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Schmitz2007, author = {Schmitz, Philipp}, title = {Empirical analyses of the trading behavior of individual investors in the warrant market}, pages = {XVI, 172 S.}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{RibitschHeumannTrotschaetal.2011, author = {Ribitsch, D. and Heumann, S. and Trotscha, E. and Herrero Acero, E. and Greimel, K. and Leber, R. and Birger-Gruenberger, R. and Deller, S. and Eiteljoerg, I. and Remler, P. and Weber, Th. and Siegert, Petra and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Donelli, I. and Freddi, G. and Schwab, H. and Guebitz, G.

Attempts to efficiently express the enzyme in common expression hosts had failed. This study reports on the realization of overexpression in Escherichia coli after structural modification of HP70. Modelling of HP70 resulted in a two-domain structure, comprising the catalytic domain and a C-terminal domain which includes about 100 amino acids. On the basis of the modelled structure the enzyme was truncated by deletion of most of the C-terminal domain yielding HP70-C477. This structural modification allowed effective expression of active enzyme using E. coli BL21-Gold as the host. Specific activity of HP70-C477 determined with suc-l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Pro-l-Phe-p-nitroanilide as the substrate was 30 ± 5 U/mg compared to 8 ± 1 U/mg of the native enzyme. HP70-C477 was most active at 40 °C and pH 7-11; these conditions are prerequisite for a potential application as detergent enzyme. Determination of kinetic parameters at 40 °C and pH = 9.5 resulted in KM = 0.23 ± 0.01 mM and kcat = 167.5 ± 3.6 s⁻¹. MS-analysis of peptide fragments obtained from incubation of HP70 and HP70-C477 with insulin B indicated that the C-terminal domain influences the cleavage preferences of the enzyme. Washing experiments confirmed the high potential of HP70-C477 as detergent protease.}, language = {en} } @incollection{WendorffEggertPohletal.2007, author = {Wendorff, Marion and Eggert, Thorsten and Pohl, Martina and Dresen, Carola and M{\"u}ller, Michael and Jaeger, Karl-Erich and Sprenger, Georg A. and Sch{\"u}rmann, Melanie and Sch{\"u}rmann, Martin and Johnen, Sandra and Sprenger, Gerda and Sahm, Hermann and Inoue, Tomoyuki and Sch{\"o}rken, Ulrich and Breittaupt, Holger and Fr{\"o}lich, Bettina and Heim, Petra and Iding, Hans and Juchem, Bettina and Siegert, Petra and Kula, Maria-Regina and Weckbecker, Andrea and Hummel, Werner and Fessner, Wolf-Dieter and Elling, Lothar and Wolberg, Michael and Bode, Silke and Feldmann, Ralf and Geilenkirchen, Petra and Schubert, Thomas and Walter, Lydia and D{\"u}nnwald, Thomas and Demir, Ayhan S. and Kolter-Jung, Doris and Nitsche, Adam and D{\"u}nkelmann, Pascal and Cosp, Annabel and Lingen, Bettina}, title = {Catalytic asymmetric synthesis : section 2.2}, series = {Asymmetric synthesis with chemical and biological methods / ed. by Dieter Enders ...}, booktitle = {Asymmetric synthesis with chemical and biological methods / ed. by Dieter Enders ...}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {978-3-527-31473-7}, pages = {298 -- 413}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{SiegertMcLeishBaumannetal.2005, author = {Siegert, Petra and McLeish, Michael J. and Baumann, Martin and Iding, Hans and Kneen, Malea M. and Kenyon, George L. and Pohl, Martina}, title = {Exchanging the substrate specificities of pyruvate decarboxylase from Zymomonas mobilis and benzoylformate decarboxylase from Pseudomonas putida}, series = {Protein engineering, design, and selection : peds}, volume = {Vol. 18}, journal = {Protein engineering, design, and selection : peds}, number = {Iss. 7}, issn = {1460-213X (E-Journal);

To avoid damages by overheating the design of effective cooling systems is required. Therefore the knowledge of heat sources and heat transfer processes is necessary. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a good and effective calculation method for the temperature analysis based on homogenization techniques. These methods have been applied for the stator windings in a slot of an electric machine consisting of copper wires and resin. The key quantity here is an effective thermal conductivity, which characterizes the heterogeneous wire resin-arrangement inside the stator slot. To illustrate the applicability of the method, the analysis of a simplified, homogenized model is compared with the detailed analysis of temperature behavior inside a slot of an electric machine according to the heat generation. We considered here only the stationary situation. The achieved numerical results are accurate and show that the applied homogenization technique works in practice. Finally the results of simulations for the two cases, the original model of the slot and the homogenized model chosen for the slot (unit cell), are compared to experimental results.}, language = {en} } @article{GuoSekiMiyamotoetal.2014, author = {Guo, Yuanyuan and Seki, Kosuke and Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo}, title = {Novel photoexcitation method for light-addressable potentiometric sensor with higher spatial resolution}, series = {Applied physics express : APEX}, volume = {7}, journal = {Applied physics express : APEX}, number = {6}, publisher = {IOP}, address = {Bristol}, issn = {1882-0786 (E-Journa); 1882-0778 (Print)}, doi = {10.7567/APEX.7.067301}, pages = {067301-4}, year = {2014}, abstract = {A novel photoexcitation method for the light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) is proposed to achieve a higher spatial resolution of chemical images.
