Patent EP-1078985-A2 (EP)
Inventor: XING TI
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2000-08-25
Abstract: A mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase gene, tMEK2, was isolated from
tomato cv. Bonny Best. By mutagenesis, a permanently-active variant, tMEK2 MUT , was
created. Both wild type tMEK2 and mutant tMEK2 MUT  were driven by a strong
constitutive promoter, tCUPΔ, in a tomato protoplast transient expression system.
Pathogenesis-related genes, PR1bl and PR3, and a wound-inducible gene, ER5, were
activated by tMEK2 MUT  expression revealing the convergence of the signal transduction
pathways for pathogen attack and mechanical stress at the level of MAPKK. Activation
of biotic and abiotic stress response genes downstream of tMEK2 occurred through
divergent pathways involving at least two classes of mitogen-activated protein kinase.
This study shows that tMEK2 may play an important role in the interaction of signal
transduction pathways that mediate responses to both biotic (eg disease) and abiotic
(wound responsiveness) stresses.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de former un joint d'électrode entre une électrode d'excitation et un bloc laser dans un gyrolaser annulaire, ce joint présentant une durée de vie et une solidité accrues ainsi qu'une résistance améliorée aux solvants et aux composants réactifs. On dépose un anneau mince de matériau de scellement entre une électrode d'excitation et le bloc laser d'un gyrolaser annulaire puis on comprime ce matériau de scellement. Des liaisons physiques et chimiques sont ainsi formées entre l'électrode d'excitation et le matériau de scellement et entre le matériau de scellement et le bloc laser. On fait applique ensuite un potentiel électrique prédéterminé dans l'électrode d'excitation, le matériau de scellement et le bloc laser pendant un intervalle de temps prédéterminé et à une température prédéterminée. Ce potentiel électrique augmente le nombre des liaisons chimiques et physiques formées au niveau du joint, et permet ainsi d'accroître la durée de vie et la solidité du joint.

Abstract: Methods and compounds are disclosed for lowering serum LDL levels or serum cholesterol levels, or for reducing the transport of cholesterol from the gut to the blood or the lymph, based on the observation that a gene known as ABC1 is necessary in order for cholesterol to be transported from the intestinal lumen into the bloodstream. A mutant chicken phenotype, known as the WHAM chicken, characterized by low levels of serum LDL and reduced transport of cholesterol, facilitated the discovery of this function of the ABC1 gene. Techniques which act to inhibit ABC1 activity in the cells of the intestinal wall will result in lower serum cholesterol.

Patent EP-1164283-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WATANABE YOSHIMASA
IPC: F02M45/08
Filed: 2001-06-13
Abstract: A fuel injection valve (10) is provided with a valve
needle (105) which is urged by the pressure of fuel in a
control chamber (109) to a closed position where the valve
needle (105) closes the fuel injection hole (103). A supply passage (209)
with a throttled portion connects a high pressure fuel
passage (123) to the control chamber (109). The control chamber (109) is
connected to a leak chamber (130) by two return passages (201,203). The
leak chamber (130) has a leak passage (117) for spilling fuel in the
leak chamber (130) to the outside of the fuel injection valve (10).
A control valve (300) is provided in the leak chamber (130). The
control valve (300) is capable of taking any of a closed
position where the leak passage (117) is closed, a medium lift
position where the leak passage (117) and two return passages (201,203)
are opened, and a full lift position where the leak
passage (117) and only one return passage (201)are opened. In the
closing position of the control valve (300), the pressure in
the control chamber (109) is high and the valve needle (105) is kept
at the closing position. In the medium lift position and
the full lift position, fuel in the control chamber (109) is
spilled through the leak passage (117) via return passages (201,203) and
the leak chamber (130). This causes the valve needle (105) to move
to the position where the fuel injection hole (103) is opened.
However, at the full lift position, since only one return
passage (201) is opened, the rate of the pressure drop in the
control chamber (109) is smaller and the speed of the lift of
the valve needle (105) is lower. Therefore, the fuel injection
characteristics can be changed by switching the position
of the control valve (300) between the medium lift position and
the full lift position during fuel injection.

heated wick (100) reduces the risk of collected water being passed to the patient and causing
choking fits or discomfit. It is preferred that the heated wick (100) lies freely in the conduit to

Abstract: First and second impurity diffusion regions are disposed in partial surface
layers of a semiconductor substrate and spaced apart by some distance. A gate
electrode is formed above a channel region defined between the first and second
impurity diffusion regions. A gate insulating film is disposed between the channel region

partial area along the longitudinal direction of a path interconnecting the first and second
impurity diffusion regions, having a lamination structure of a first insulating film, a charge
trap film and a second insulating film sequentially stacked in this order. The charge trap
film is made of insulating material easier to trap electrons than the first and second
insulating films. A control circuit drains holes trapped in each film between the gate
electrode and the channel region or at an interface between adjacent films, by applying
a hole drain voltage to the gate electrode, the hole drain voltage being higher than a
voltage applied to either the first or second impurity diffusion region.

Also provided is a feedforward control section that
determines a lock-up clutch engagement pressure by way
of feedforward control during a period of time from a
time when the torque converter is shifted from the
torque-converter action area to the slip-control area
to the time when the actual slip rotation becomes less

Abstract: Method for operating a gas boiler comprises igniting and burning a gas/air mixture in a burner arranged in a combustion chamber, detecting the ionization stream in the flame, and passing the combustion gas to a heat exchanger and feeding as exhaust gas to an exhaust gas system. Dropping of the ionization stream during operation by a specified amount greater than the operation-induced variations of the ionization stream is evaluated as a sign of the onset of system-induced, self-regulating vibrations (rumbling). A change in the load and/or air ratio is carried out as a counter-measure. Preferred Features: Counter-measures include a short-term increase or reduction in load and changing the load by temporarily switching the boiler off and then on again.
