The present invention overcomes all the above drawbacks and provides a versatile method for the fabrication of multilayer hollow tubes that uses a layer-by-layer rod dipping approach using different biomaterials. The device enables fine control over fabrication parameters, such as ascending/descending speeds, rod rotational velocity, and crosslinking or polymerization time. All these technologies allows the generation of more complex multilayer hollow tubes such as vessel-like structures, urethral grafting, prostate grafting and the like.

Automated fabrication of layer-by-layer tissue engineered complex tubes

Nucleic acid and corresponding amino acid sequences of a cold adapted subtilisin-like activity protein, insolated from antarctic marine origin, preferably from an Antarctic bacteria (sp) that can be used in a variety of industrial contexts and commercial purposes including laundry detergents, food processing, leather processing and skin care products. Nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences as well as methods for producing and using the cold adapted subtilisin-like protein are also described.

A method of preparing a cold adapted xylanase by use of recombinant DNA techniques. A nucleic acid and corresponding amino acid sequences of a cold adapted xylanase, isolated from antarctic marine origin, preferably from an Antarctic bacteria (sp.) are provided. These can be used in a variety of industrial contexts and for a variety of commercial purposes including more complete hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass into simple sugars that can then be fermented to products, such as liquid fuels and chemical feedstocks. The enzymes are also useful in the production methods of other industries, such as the animal feed, baking, and paper industries. Nucleic acids, corresponding amino acid sequences, constructs, expression vectors or integration vectors containing the DNA molecule, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods for producing and using the polypeptides for producing and using the-derived cold adapted family GH10 xylanase-like protein are also described.
