Patent CA-2301199-C (CA)

IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 1998-08-26
Granted: 2013-02-05
Abstract: A specific region of chromosome 10 (10q23.3) has been implicated by series of studies to contain a tumor suppressor gene involved in gliomas, as well as a number of other human cancers. One gene within this region was identified, and the corresponding coding region of the gene represents a novel 47 kD protein. A domain of this product has an exact match to the conserved catalytic domain of protein tyrosine phosphatases, indicating a possible functional role in phosphorylation events. Sequence analyses demonstrated that a number of exons of the gene were deleted in tumor cell lines used to define the 10q23.3 region, leading to the classification of this gene as a tumor suppressor. Further analyses have demonstrated the presence of a number of mutations in the gene in both glioma and prostate carcinoma cells. Methods for diagnosing and treating cancers related to this tumor suppressor, designated as TS10q23.3, also are disclosed.

Title: Surface-modified cellulose as low calorie flour replacements
Inventor: YARGER RONALD G
IPC: A23L29/262
Filed: 1998-11-03
Granted: 2007-06-05
Abstract: Cellulose is surface-modified by coating and/or acylation with C2 to C24, in same cases primarily C6 to C22, or more narrowly C16 to C20, aliphatic acids, to obtain cellulose esters exhibiting a degree of substitution of about 0.05 or less, preferably about 0.01 or less. The surface-modified cellulose is used as a low-calorie carbohydrate replacement in edible compositions having a carbohydrate component. Baked food products such as cookies employ the low-calorie ingredient in pla ce of a starch ingredient in some preferred embodiments. In some of these embodiments, cookies formulated with surface-modified cellulos e further contain a spreading ingredient such as polydextrose; in these, the cellulose esters help to control the spread as well as provide calorie reduction. In these and other embodiments, the food products can also contain reduced fat or a low calorie fat substitute and/or an artificial sweetener to provide further calorie reduction.

Title: Encoding/decoding apparatus and method for orientation interpolator node data
Inventor: JUNG SEOK-YOON
IPC: H04N19/91
Filed: 2001-10-19
Granted: 2004-07-20
Abstract: An encoding/decoding apparatus and method for an orientation interpolator node are provided. The encoding/decoding apparatus for an orientation interpolator node, which provides rotational information of an object in a 3-dimensional space, is formed of "key information" which indicates a time when a rotational movement occurs and "key value information" which indicates a rotational posture corresponding to the time. A predictive coding apparatus is used in the encoding process for compressing the information of the key and key value information. Therefore, in encoding an input orientation interpolator node in an information compression method of a predictive encoding method, the efficiency of encoding is improved and an reverse rotation due to an encoding error from lossy coding can be corrected.
