Abstract: L'invention concerne des compositions et des procédés de manipulation génétique ciblée d'un organisme. Ces compositions sont de nouveaux vecteurs d'intégration dérivés du bactériophage Mu comportant un complexe de donneur clivé actif (CDC) et également un mécanisme de ciblage permettant l'intégration de la cassette transposable Mu pouvant être dirigé vers un site cible prédéterminé à l'intérieur du génome d'un organisme hôte. Ces vecteurs d'intégration comprennent une cassette transposable Mu et un ou plusieurs élément(s) de navigation dirigeant l'insertion ciblée du CDC. Les différents procédés de cette invention emploient les vecteurs d'intégration afin d'insérer la cassette transposable Mu dans le site cible du génome d'un organisme. L'insertion se produit en l'absence de la protéine accessoire MuB. Ces procédés servent à moduler l'activité de gènes connus et à cibler l'intégration de séquences de nucléotides présentant un intérêt dans un site spécifique du génome d'un organisme. De même, ces procédés pourront également servir à créer des disruptions et des éjections de gènes.

Abstract: The invention involves a method for measuring phosphorylation of proteins and, as such, is an indicator of protein kinase activity. The method involves the  in vitro  phosphorylation of a target protein but subjecting that protein (non-phosphorylated) to reaction mixture containing all reagents, including phosphokinase which allow the creation of a phosphorylated form of protein. The phostphorylated protein is measured by contacting it with an antibody specific for the phosphorylation site(s). The invention includes antibodies useful in practicing the methods of the invention. The invention particularly relates to phosphorylation of Tau, Rb and EGFR proteins and antibodies specific for the site of phosphorylation of the Tau, Rb or EGFR proteins.

Abstract: An information recording and reproduction apparatus for a magneto-optical medium includes a synchronizing signal generation circuit (44) for generating a synchronizing signal to provide a pulsed laser beam at the time of reproduction according to an internal clock obtained from a reproduction signal. The laser beam is driven on/off according to the synchronizing signal at the time of reproduction to have the laser spot on the signal plane prevented from being enlarged, so that the reproducible domain is smaller than the domain of when a laser beam is continuously emitted. In reproduction, an optical superresolution method is applied simultaneous to provision of a pulsed laser beam to allow reproduction of higher density. An external synchronizing signal generation circuit (46) for generating an external synchronizing signal according to a wobble on a surface of a recording medium can be used instead of a synchronizing signal generation circuit according to an internal clock.

information recorded in an information recording/reproducing
medium(2) to be changed in a more convenient fashion or arranged.
When a user selects music information recorded in the information
recording/reproducing medium during the reproduction by operating
an operating unit(19), data of track number indicating a place where
the reproduced information is recorded is stored in a storing
unit(20). When the selection of information is completed by the
user, the data of track number stored in the storing unit is changed
in turn of a predetermined track number, and also an updated data
assigned a group file is generated. The updated data is recorded
in a predetermined area of the information recording/reproducing
medium as a management data showing the reproduction order.

Abstract: A predistortion circuit for a microwave amplifier and more particularly to predistortion
circuit configured as a Doherty amplifier. The predistortion circuit is adapted to be coupled to a
downstream Doherty amplifier to precompensate for the gain compression and phase expansion
of the downstream Doherty amplifier as the input power level is increased while simultaneously
reducing the intermodulation (IM) distortion. In order to provide precompensation, the
precompensation circuit is operated at bias level to provide gain expansion and phase
compression to cancel out the gain compression and phase expansion of the downstream Doherty
amplifier to provide a higher overall linear power added efficiency (PAE).

Abstract: A color conversion module 42 carries out color conversion of original
color image data G rgb  from the RGB color system into the CMYK color
system to obtain color-converted original color image data G cmyk  (step S104).
A DCT module 44 applies DCT (discrete cosine transform) over the whole
color-converted original color image data G cmyk  to generate DCT coefficients
D cmyk  (step S106). An embedding module 46 embeds the watermark
information s into the components C, M, Y, and K of the DCT coefficients
D cmyk  (step S108). An IDCT module 48 applies IDCT (inverse discrete
cosine transform) onto DCT coefficients D' cmyk  with the watermark
information s embedded therein to generate embedding-processed color
image data G' cmyk  (step S110). The color conversion module 42 carries out
color conversion of the embedding-processed color image data G' cmyk  from
the CMYK color system into the RGB color system to obtain
embedding-processed color image data G' rgb  (step S112). This arrangement
does not require any correction of the position or the shape of image blocks
in the process of extracting the embedded watermark information.
