Patent EP-1030449-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NICOL CHRISTOPHER JOHN
IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2000-02-09
Abstract: Power consumption in program implemented circuits and the like is dynamically
controlled in accordance with the circuit performance over time, not by reducing
switched capacitance as was done in prior hardware circuit implementations but, in
accordance with the invention, by dynamically reducing the number of machine cycles
required to implement the desired circuit at an acceptable performance level. Power
consumption is dynamically reduced in program implemented circuits, for example,
circuits implemented on a digital signal processor (DSP), including filters employed for
channel equalization and for echo cancellation by monitoring the circuit performance
over time and dynamically scaling back filter parameters when less than worst case
performance is required. Scaling back of the DSP implemented filter parameters results
in fewer machine cycles being required to effect the filters while maintaining adequate
performance that, in turn, allows reduction in the DSP clock frequency, resulting in
lower power consumption. The reduced DSP clock frequency also allows the DSP to
be operated at a lower supply voltage that yields significant additional power savings.

Abstract: On reconnaît la structure de chapeau 5' de l'ARN messager à l'aide de eIF4E, qui joue un rôle essentiel dans le contrôle de la traduction et dans la croissance cellulaire. Les membres d'une famille de protéines appelés protéines de liaison à eIF4E (4E-BP) inhibent l'activité de eIF4E et, par conséquent, la traduction. Après l'exposition des cellules aux hormones, cytokines et facteurs de croissance, les 4E-BP sont hyperphosphorylées et se dissocient de eIF4E, afin d'atténuer l'inhibition de la traduction. Les événements de phosphorylation menant à la dissociation de 4E-BP1 de eIF4E sont induits par la voie de P13-kinase/FRAP/mTOR. La présente invention concerne l'importance biologique de 4E-BP1 in vivo en disloquant son gène dans la souris. Les souris homozygotes déficientes en 4E-BP1 sont en bonne santé et se développent normalement. Toutefois, elles présentent une diminution importante du tissu adipeux blanc et du taux de glucose sanguin alors que les mâles présentent une diminution du poids corporel total et une augmentation du taux métabolique au repos. Des fibroblastes d'embryon de souris primaire présentent une croissance cellulaire accélérée et une traduction dépendante de la structure en chapeau améliorée, coïncidant avec une augmentation de la phosphorylation de eIF4E.
