Abstract: Disclosed are methods for detecting mammalian
genes encoding proteins which can function in microorganisms,
particularly yeast, to modify, complement, or
suppress a genetic defect associated with an identifiable
phenotypic alteration or characteristic in the
microorganism. Disclosed also are mammalian DNA
sequences cloned by the above method, as well as
polypeptide products of the expression of the DNA
sequences in procaryotic or eucaryotic host cells and
antibody substances which are specifically immunoreactive
with said expression products. More
specifically, the present invention relates to methods
for cloning mammalian genes which encode products which
modify, complement or suppress a genetic defect in a
biochemical pathway in which cAMP participates
to products (RNA, proteins)
encoded by the mammalian genes cloned in this
manner, and to antibodies which can bind the encoded
proteins.

Abstract: An image forming device including a plurality of image
forming units each for forming an image on an intermediate
transfer body (30) using one of different colored inks.
Different colored images are selectively formed in an
overlapping relation on the intermediate transfer body,
thereby forming a multicolor image thereon. Each different
colored image is formed by a thermal transfer operation in
which ink on an ink holding member (10) is heated, melted, and
then transferred directly onto the intermediate transfer
body or onto an existing ink image on the intermediate
transfer body. Heat to be supplied to the ink to be
transferred onto the existing ink image is insufficient to
melt ink in the existing ink image.

Abstract: A method for controlling an inkjet apparatus (1)
employs a pluggable module (14,30) which includes a
memory (20,34), the inkjet apparatus (1) being connected
to a computer/display arrangement (10). The method
includes the steps of: determining when the pluggable
module (14,30) has been installed in the inkjet apparatus
(1); determining if a printer driver indication in the
module memory (20,34) notes a newer driver procedure than
the current driver procedure being used with the inkjet
apparatus (1); and if yes, displaying a message
indicating availability of the newer driver procedure.
The method further enables the occurrence of a low ink
indication from a pluggable ink module (14) to
automatically cause the display of a reorder message. The
method also enables any selected message included in the
memory (20,34) to be automatically displayed upon
insertion of the pluggable module (14,30).

A subscriber station is located in the coverage area of the base station, the subscriber station including a subscriber receiver, a subscriber transmitter, and a subscriber antenna. The base antenna array is constructed and arranged to operate in a first mode wherein the array steers a narrow antenna beam in the direction of the subscriber station for transmitting link downlink signals to the subscriber station and for receiving first uplink signals from the subscriber station, and a second mode wherein the array defines a wide beam for transmitting second downlink signals simultaneously to a number of subscriber stations and for receiving second uplink signals from the subscriber stations. In one embodiment, the subscriber station transmitter is configured to modulate data on a selected number of carriers that are spaced spectrally from one another, to produce simultaneously a corresponding number of first uplink signals for reception at the base station. The number of carriers selected is a function of a desired data transmission rate.

The electronic control unit 4 is programmed to operate such that if the
signal "W" received from a particular sensor 23a, 23b, 23c indicates that the
passenger is below a predetermined weight "WC", which indicates that the
passenger is probably a child, the associated door 14, 16, 17 is prevented
