Abstract: The present invention provides a method to directionally clone any linear template DNA molecule into any linearized vector. The vector ends may be generated from any restriction enzyme cleavage. The method does not require a ligation step nor the use of carefully controlled conditions as is required with methods involving specific exonucleases alone. It has been determined that specific DNA polymerases are able to efficiently join one or more linear DNA molecules sharing ends with appropriate complementation.

Inventor: CLAUSEN HENRIK
IPC: C12Q1/48
Filed: 2001-05-10
Abstract: Attachment of O-glycans to proteins is controlled by a large family of homologous polypeptide GalNAc-transferases. Polypeptide GalNAc-transferases contain a C-terminal sequence with similarity to lectins. This invention discloses that the putative lectin domains of GalNAc-transferase isoforms, GalNAc-T4, -T7, -T2, and  T3, are functional and recognize carbohydrates, glycopeptides, and peptides. These lectin domains have different binding specificities and modulate the functions of GalNAc-transferase isoforms differently. The lectin domains of GalNAc-T- and -T7 directs the glycopeptide specificities of these enzymes, while the lectin domains of GalNAc-T2 and -T3 directs broadening of donor substrate specificities to include UDP-Gal. Selective inhibitors of these functions that do not eliminate general catalytic activities are disclosed. Such inhibitors disclosed include free sugars, aryl-sugar derivatives, and glycopeptides. Inhibitors of GalNAc-transferase lectin domains are useful for altering the O-glycosylation capacity of cells, tissues, and organisms, and such agents may also interfere with other binding functions involved in intracellular sorting and secretion events.

Title: Method for producing a solar cell and a solar cell produced according to said method
Inventor: FATH PETER
IPC: H01L31/068
Filed: 2001-09-13
Abstract: The problem posed by both conventional and novel crystalline silicon solar cells is the electrical isolation of layers doped with p and n conductivity types. The invention solves said problem in a simple and elegant manner. A masking paste is applied locally to at least one side of the silicon substrate and is subsequently dried. A doping material diffusion is then carried out, whereby the conductivity type of the doping material is in opposition to that of the base doping of the crystalline silicon substrate. In one of the subsequent production steps of the solar cell, the electric contacts are applied in such a way that at least one section of said contacts is isolated electrically from the rest of the contact by the masking paste. The masking paste thus allows an electrical isolation of the two external contacts of a solar cell by preventing the diffusion of one doping material using said paste. Other methods that achieve the same results are substantially more complex and expensive to use.
