Abstract: Compositions are provided, which can be used as frameworks for the creation of very stable and soluble single-chain Fv antibody fragments. These frameworks have been selected for intracellular performance and are thus ideally suited for the creation of scFv antibody fragments or scFv antibody libraries for applications where stability and solubility are limiting factors for the performance of antibody fragments, such as in the reducing environment of a cell. Such frameworks can also be used to identify highly conserved residues and consensus sequences which demonstrate enhanced solubility and stability.

Abstract: A seat for a vehicle is provided. The seat comprises a seat chassis for supporting further seat components. 
     The further seat components comprise a back member for supporting the back of the occupant and a base member. The base member comprises a front edge and a back edge, and may be configured into two different conditions. In a first condition, the base member extends generally perpendicularly from the back member and is suitable for accommodating the occupant in a sitting position. In a second condition, the base member is retracted and thereby tends to reduce the profile of the seat. 
     An attachment for connecting the base member to the chassis is also provided. Consequently, the base member may be selectively configured between the first condition and the second condition. In selectively configuring the base member from the first condition to the second condition, the base member tilts such that it rises at the back edge and dips at the front edge.
