Abstract: The present invention provides transgenic plants with reduced levels of saturated fatty acids in the seed oil and methods of making these plants. The transgenic plants developed through this method contain reduced levels of saturated fatty acids in seed oil due to expression of a prokaryotic delta-9 desaturase enzyme (i.e. an enzyme that introduces cis double bonds at the delta-9 position of saturated fatty acids) operably linked with an endoplasmic reticulum retention and retrieval signal sequence. One example of the invention is a plant expressing a heterologous delta-9 desaturase enzyme from cyanobacterium Anacystis nidulans, which converts lipid-bound 16:0 and 18:0 fatty acids into corresponding 16:1 and 18:1, in operative linkage with a KKSS (SEQ ID NO:5) endoplasmic reticulum retention and retrieval signal sequence.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hot-wire airflow meter for measuring airflow rate using a heat-generating resistor with temperature dependency. The time it takes for a hot-wire airflow meter to begin to operate normally upon startup of an automobile is reduced. A heat-generating resistor (Rh) for measuring airflow rate, a temperature-compensating resistor (Rc), and a resistor (R1) for detecting the current through the heat-generating resistor are connected in parallel. A differential voltage between a power supply voltage (Vb) and the voltage across the emitter-collector junction of transistors (Q1, Q2, Q3) is applied to each of the heat-generating resistor (Rh), temperature-compensating resistor (Rc), and current-detecting resistor (R1). The transistors (Q1, Q2, Q3) form a current mirror circuit (20), by which the ratio of currents through the heat-generating resistor (Rh), temperature-compensating resistor (Rc), and current-detecting resistor (R1) is determined. The current ratio is maintained to be a predetermined ratio even if the heating current is controlled by an operational amplifier (21) due to an increase or decrease in airflow rate.

Abstract: An anti-deformation structure is formed on the surface of a flexible plate-shaped part. The anti-deformation structure includes protrusions and depressions formed on the surface of the plate-shaped part. The protrusions and depressions has a shape in which adjacent protrusions become in contact with each other in the state when the plate-shaped part is deformed within a range of elastic deformation, restricting further greater deformation, and thus, preventing excessive deformation leading to permanent deformation and raising the resistance to the stress. The flexible base material can be applied to flexible image-displaying devices.
