Title: Method for instantaneous peak level management and speech clarity enhancement
Inventor: SMITH DESMOND ARTHUR
IPC: G10L21/02
Filed: 2009-01-29
Abstract: A method for raising the soft and mid-level amplitude of sounds for greater clarity and perceptual benefit, while simultaneously removing the high level amplitude peaks without delay and providing protection for the auditory sense organ. The method does not require a feedback mechanism for the accomplishment of this treatment and exploits the psychoacoustic phenome-non of temporal integration which reduces the audibility of short duration signals, including distortions associated with peak clipping.  The human auditory system requires greater time to integrate signal energy for audibility than provided by brief duration waveform peaks.

Title: Combinatorial dna library for producing modified n-glycans in lower eukaryotes
Inventor: GERNGROSS TILLMAN U
IPC: C12N15/79
Filed: 2004-02-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to eukaryotic host cells having modified oligosaccharides which may be modified further by heterologous expression of a set of glycosyltransferases, sugar transporters and mannosidases to become host-strains for the production of mammalian, e.g., human therapeutic glycoproteins. The invention provides nucleic acid molecules and combinatorial libraries which can be used to successfully target and express mammalian enzymatic activities such as those involved in glycosylation to intracellular compartments in a eukaryotic host cell. The process provides an engineered host cell which can be used to express and target any desirable gene(s) involved in glycosylation. Host cells with modified oligosaccharides are created or selected. N-glycans made in the engineered host cells have a Man5GlcNAc2 core structure which may then be modified further by heterologous expression of one or more enzymes, e.g., glycosyltransferases, sugar transporters and mannosidases, to yield human-like glycoproteins. For the production of therapeutic proteins, this method may be adapted to engineer cell lines in which any desired glycosylation structure may be obtained.
