Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a method which enables olefin compound production with a high productivity, and an enzyme used in the method. The present inventors introduced mutations involving amino acid substitution into various sites of diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase (MVD) to prepare multiple MVD variants. Then, the present inventors evaluated these variants in terms of catalytic activity for producing an olefin compound such as isoprene, and have found as a result that the catalytic activity is improved when serine at position 153 and threonine at position 209 are each substituted with a different amino acid. In addition, the present inventors have revealed that the catalytic activity of the variants is further improved when glycine at position 152 is further substituted with a different amino acid.

Abstract: Methods and systems for performing three dimensional LIDAR measurements with multiple illumination beams scanned over a three dimensional environment by one or more optical phase modulation devices are described herein. In one aspect, illumination light from each LIDAR measurement channel is emitted to the surrounding environment in a different direction by an optical phase modulation device. The optical phase modulation device also directs each amount of return measurement light onto a corresponding photodetector. The illumination pulse output of each LIDAR measurement channel is synchronized with commanded changes of state of each corresponding optical phase modulation device. In some embodiments, each optical phase modulation device is associated with a single LIDAR measurement channel. In some embodiments, multiple LIDAR measurement channels are associated with a single modulation device. In some embodiments, a one dimensional optical phase modulation device is employed. In other embodiments, a two dimensional optical phase modulation device is employed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of cancer therapy using subcutaneous administration of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Preferably, the ADC comprises an antibody that binds to Trop-2, CEACAM5, CEACAM6, CD20, CD22, CD30, CD46, CD74, Her-2, folate receptor, or HLA-DR. More preferably, the drug is SN-38. Subcutaneous administration is at least as effective as intravenous administration of the same ADC. Surprisingly, subcutaneous administration can be used without inducing unmanageable adverse local toxicity at the injection site. Subcutaneous administration is advantageous in requiring less frequent administration, substantially reducing the amount of time required for intravenous administration, and reducing the levels of systemic toxicities observed with intravenous administration. When administered at specified dosages and schedules, the ADCs can reduce solid tumors in size, reduce or eliminate metastases and are effective to treat cancers resistant to standard therapies, such as radiation therapy, chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
