Title: Protection against environmental toxicity through manipulation of the processing of messenger rna precursors
Inventor: SERRANO SALOM RAMON
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 2001-04-19
Abstract: This invention describes the identification of pre-messenger RNA processing as a novel target of environmental stress caused for example by lithium and sodium toxicity. Overexpression of different types of proteins (or protein fragments) from different organisms but all involved in pre-mRNA processing, protects yeast from salt stress, which indicates that any stimulation of this process, independently of its mechanism, may counteract the toxic effects of mineral salts. A similar phenotype of tolerance to NaCl and to LiCl has been observed by overexpression of these types of proteins in transgenic Arabidopsis plants, demonstrating the generality of this protective effect in eukaryotic cells and organisms.

Title: Latching device for injection molds with removable inserts
Inventor: ADAS JAMES O
IPC: B29C33/30
Filed: 2001-06-15
Abstract: A latching device (20) for a mold assembly (10) uses a cam action to hold the "A" side plate against the hot runner system/nozzle plate (18) during operation. Preferably, a latch (20) is provided on each side of the mold to effectively hold the "A" side plate against the nozzle plate (18) during the high pressure injection of plastic melt. For purposes of a mold insert change, each latch (20) is rotated to release the "A" side plate from the nozzle plate (18), and hold the "A" side plate against the "B" side plate. This enables the "A" (12) and "B" (14) portions of the mold assembly to be moved away from the nozzle plate (18), thereby avoiding interference of the hot runner nozzles and "A" side insert and enabling quick mold insert change.
