Abstract: A method for improving the response time of a data storage library of
removable media is disclosed. The library includes a media storage rack with
multiple slots (504) for storing data media, a storage drive (512) for writing data to or reading
data from one of the media, a picker (510) for moving the media between the slots and
the drive, and a destage slot physically close to the drive. The method comprises
the steps of: moving a first medium from the drive to the destage slot, the first
medium being one that was last accessed by the drive; moving a second medium
from a slot holding the second medium to the drive, the second medium being the
medium that will be accessed next by the drive; during the operation of the drive
on the second medium, returning the first medium from the destage slot to the slot
originally holding the first medium; and positioning the picker close to the drive.
In another embodiment of the invention, the library additionally includes a
prestage slot. The step of returning the first medium, while the drive is accessing
the second medium, includes the step of moving a third medium from the storage
rack to the prestage slot. The third medium being one that will be accessed by the

Abstract: L'invention concerne un test de liaison pour des protéases et des phosphatases qui contiennent de la cystéine à leurs sites de liaison, ou pour lesquels la cystéine est un composant structurel indispensable à une liaison enzymatique. Le groupe sulfhydryle de la cystéine constitue le groupe nucléophile des propriétés protéolytiques et hydrolytiques du mécanisme de l'enzyme. Ce test peut être utilisé pour déterminer la capacité de nouveaux ligands et mélanges inconnus de composants à se lier en mode compétitif à une enzyme, en comparaison avec un agent liant connu de l'enzyme, par ex. un inhibiteur connu de l'enzyme. L'utilisation d'une forme mutante de l'enzyme naturelle ou native de type sauvage, dans laquelle la sérine, ou un autre acide aminé, par ex. l'alanine, remplace la cystéine, permet de surmonter le problème d'une interférence causée par des agents étrangers oxydants et alkylants dans la procédure de test. Cette interférence qui se produit dans la cystéine suite à l'oxydation ou l'alkylation du sulfhydryle, du -SH (ou du -S-), affecte ensuite de manière défavorable la capacité de liaison de l'enzyme. L'invention concerne spécifiquement un test destiné à des tyrosine phosphatases et des cystéine protéases, comprenant des capsases et des cathepsines, par ex. la cathepsine K(O2), le test étant réalisé par une technique de test de proximité à scintillation. Ce test trouve des applications importantes dans la recherche de composés destinés au traitement et à l'étude, par exemple, du diabète, de l'immunodépression, du cancer, de la maladie d'Alzheimer et de l'ostéoporose. La nouvelle caractéristique que présente l'utilisation d'une enzyme mutante peut être étendue à son utilisation dans une large gamme de tests classiques, tels des tests par colorimétrie, photométrie ou spectrophotométrie, des radio-immuno-essais et des tests compétitifs de liaison à des ligands.
