Title: Filter cartridge and manifold for a water purification system.
Inventor: BURROWS BRUCE D
IPC: B01D29/00
Filed: 2005-01-24
Abstract: A combined filter cartridge and manifold for use in a water purification system or the like, to facilitate substantially drip-free filter cartridge removal and replacement. The filter cartridge includes water inlet and outlet ports for respective connection with inlet and outlet fittings on the manifold. A pivoting manifold cap normally overlies and retains the filter cartridge in connected relation with the manifold fittings and a water supply coupled to the manifold. Pivoting movement of the manifold cap toward an open position shuts off the water supply and then permits filter cartridge separation from the manifold, with check valves at the manifold inlet/outlet fittings and cartridge inlet/outlet ports preventing significant water leakage. Upon installation of a replacement filter cartridge and return movement of the manifold cap to the initial closed position, cam elements on the manifold cap and filter cartridge draw the cartridge inlet/outlet ports into secure slide-on connection with the manifold inlet/outlet fittings before resuming connection with the water supply.

Title: Cloning and expression of transforming growth factor (beta)2
Inventor: NANCY WEBB
IPC: C12N15/12
Filed: 1988-10-04
Abstract: cDNA CLONES CODING FOR TGF-?2 WHICH ARE USED TO CONSTRUCT EXPRESSION VECTORS CAPABLE OF DIRECTING THE HIGH-LEVEL EXPRESSION OF MATURE, BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE TGF-?2 IN TRANSFECTED CHINESE HAMSTER OVARY CELLS (CHO CELLS) ARE DESCRIBED. THE TGF-?2 PRODUCED AND SECRETED BY CHO TRANSFECTANTS HAS A SPECIFIC ACTIVITY ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT HALF THAT OF RECOMBINANT TGF-?1. THE CLONES WERE ISOLATED FROM A TAMOXIFEN-TREATED HUMAN PROSTATIC ADENOCARCINOMA CELL LINE (PC-3) USING OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PROBES BASED ON THE PARTIAL MONKEY CELL LINE, BSC-40. THE cDNA SEQUENCES PREDICT THAT TGF-?2 IS SYNTHESIZED AS POLYPEPTIDE PRECURSOR FORMS FROM WHICH THE MATURE 112 AMINO ACID TGF-?2 SUBUNIT IS DERIVED BY PROTEOLYTIC CLEAVAGE. THE PROTEINS CODED FOR BY THE HUMAN TGF-?1 AND TGF-?2 cDNAS SHOW AN OVERALL HOMOLOGY OF 41THE MATURE AND AMINO-TERMINAL PRECURSOR REGIONS SHOW 71AND 31HOMOLOGY RESPECTIVELY. NORTHERN BLOT ANALYSIS IDENTIFIED TGF-?2 TRANSCRIPTS OF 4.1 KB, 5.1 KB, AND 6.5KB USING mRNA FROM SEVERAL DIFFERENT SOURCES. ANALYSIS OF POLYADENYLATED RNA FROM TAMOXIFEN-TREATED PC-3 CELLS SHOWED THAT THESE CELLS CONTAIN HIGHER AMOUNTS OF TGF-?1 TRANSCRIPTS THAN TGF-?2, ALTHOUGH THEY PRODUCE MORE TGF-?2 PROTEIN THAN TGF-?1. THIS SUGGESTS THAT THERE IS A POST-TRANSCRIPTIONAL LEVEL OF REGULATION FOR THE PRODUCTION OF THESE PROTEINS.
