Patent EP-1137787-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FANG RONG-XIANG
IPC: C07K14/415
Filed: 1998-12-11
Abstract: Methods are disclosed for enhancing protein production. One method comprises preparing a vector by inserting a gene encoding ubiquitin in front of a gene encoding a protein of interest and inserting the vector into a cell. A fusion protein will be expressed which includes ubiquitin plus the protein of interest. Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases can cleave the fusion protein leaving the desired protein in its free state. This method causes enhanced production of the protein of interest as compared to performing the same method without the ubiquitin gene as part of the vector. A ubiquitin promoter is unnecessary to yield this enhanced production and is not used. A second method is very similar except that in place of a ubiquitin gene, a gene encoding fourteen amino acids of cucumber mosaic virus coat protein is inserted in front of the gene of interest. This results in expression of a fusion protein comprising the fourteen amino acid residues of the coat protein bonded to the protein of interest. The fusion protein is produced at a higher level than is the protein when the coat protein gene fragment is not present in the vector. In both methods the genes can be placed under the control of heterologous promoters such as a 35S promoter.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a switching node for
use in a synchronous optical network ring, where the
ring is transporting data divided into first size
blocks, for example OC-192 optical signals,
characterized by data blocks of size 192. The switching
node includes several primary receive and send
connections, for receiving and transmitting inter-ring
optical signals divided into second size blocks, for
example OC-48 optical signals, characterized by data
blocks of size 48. The switching node further includes
a secondary receive and send connection for receiving
and transmitting intra-ring optical signals divided
into first size blocks. A critical component of the
switching node is the main controller, responsible for
routing incoming intra-ring first size blocks towards a
primary send connection. The main controller divides a
first size block into smaller second size blocks,
observes the second size blocks for the presence of
concatenated data and, in the case where there is
presence of concatenated data, routes the second size
block as a single unit towards the adjacent network
ring. In the case where there is absence of
concatenated data, the routing controller routes the
group of data forming the second size block as
independent data elements towards the adjacent network
ring.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and a system of network capacity planning for use in a
high speed packet switching network. The network comprises a plurality of switching
nodes interconnected through a plurality of communication links, each of the
switching nodes comprises means for switching packets from at least one input link
to at least one output link. Each of the output links is coupled to at least one buffer in
the switching node for queuing packets before they are transmitted over the output
link. The network capacity planning method of the invention comprises the following
steps: 
In each of the switching nodes and for each of the output links, a time distribution of
the occupancy of each buffer during a predetermined monitoring time period is
measured, and stored in a centralized memory location. Then, the buffer occupancy
time distribution data are retrieved from the centralized memory location in all the
switching nodes, gathered and stored in a network dedicated server. These buffer
occupancy time distribution data for all the nodes are transmitted from the dedicated
network server to a network monitoring center. In the network monitoring center, the
buffer occupancy time distribution data are integrated on a larger time scale, and
stored. Finally, the integrated buffer occupancy time distribution data are used to
apply network capacity planning actions to the network resources.

Abstract: A novel handle assembly has an opening that allows for the insertion of a needle set. The needle set is an integral unit and consists of an outer hollow cannula and an inner pointed tip stylet. The stylet and the cannula are capable of being urged forward separately into the biopsy area in a defined motion in relation to each other. The handle assembly includes a housing, and a slidable extension. In operation, the stylet and the cannula are inserted into the housing. The extension is moved rearward until the cannula is in a spring loaded position and a first locking member has engaged a second locking member. An adjustable wheel on the extension is turned to set the stylet to a predetermined distance for insertion into the biopsy area. The stylet and the cannula are inserted into a patient near the biopsy area. The stylet is then urged into the biopsy area to the predetermined depth. The slidable extension is pushed forward by a user's thumb and the cannula is fired so that the tissue is severed and captured in the notch of the stylet. After disengaging the biopsy area, the stylet is pressed forward using the extension so that the tissue sample is exposed and may be removed. The stylet is then pulled back into the starting position so that multiple samples may be taken.
