Filed: 2002-03-20
Abstract: Light-generating fusion proteins having a ligand binding site and a light- generating polypeptide moiety and their use as diagnostics, in drug screenin g and discovery, and as therapeutics, are disclosed. The light-generating fusi on protein has a feature where the bioluminescence of the polypeptide moiety changes upon binding of a ligand at the ligand binding site. The ligand may be, for example, an enzyme present in an environment only under certain conditions, e.g., ubiquitin ligase in a hypoxic state, such that the light- generating fusion protein is "turned on" only under such conditions.

Title: Method and apparatus for tracking aircraft and securing against unauthorized access
Inventor: CRANK KELLY C
IPC: B64D45/00
Filed: 2002-10-10
Abstract: A system for monitoring an aircraft (AE) receives navigation signals and deriving a position vector therefrom and also asserts an alert signal (8) in the event that the altitude of the aircraft above ground level is less than a predetermined value. The system samples the position vector at a selected sample rate and outputs a succession of samples of the position vector, the sample rate depending on whether the alert signal has been asserted. Data packets that contain respective samples of the position vector are transmitted to a ground-based receiving station (FDRC). The ground-based receiving station may calculate secondary data.

Abstract: Une méthode de gestion de terrain forestier qui utilise des récoltes génétiques multiples. La méthode nécessite la plantation sur une parcelle de terrain d'une première récolte génétique selon un schéma linéaire en grande partie. Cette première récolte génétique est sélectionnée pour générer des arbres d'une valeur de sciage élevée. La première récolte génétique est plantée selon un premier espacement des cultures et des lignes qui profite aux arbres d'une grande valeur de sciage. Plantée de manière intercalaire le long du schéma linéaire en grande partie, on trouve une seconde récolte génétique. La seconde récolte génétique est sélectionnée pour générer des arbres pour autre chose que leur valeur de sciage. La seconde récolte génétique est plantée selon un second espacement des cultures qui est plus court que le premier espacement des cultures. L'élagage de la première récolte génétique s'effectue à un moment où la valeur finale de la première récolte génétique est optimisée. La seconde récolte génétique est effectuée à un moment où la valeur finale de la première récolte génétique sera optimisée ou la valeur finale de la seconde récolte génétique est élevée. La seconde récolte génétique est effectuée à un moment où la seconde récolte génétique a environ 8 à 14 ans.
