Inventor: DWULET FRANCIS EDWARD
IPC: C12P21/06
Filed: 2002-07-06
Abstract: A hybrid polypeptide composed of an identification peptide and a desired functional protein are produced by recombinant DNA techniques. A DNA expression vector is constructed that includes segments of DNA coding for the identification peptide and the desired functional protein. The identification peptide consists of a specific sequence of amino acids that has the desired affinity for a non-antibody capture protein. This peptide maybe linked to either the amino or carboxyl terminal of the functional protein. The identification peptide may or may not contain a sequence of amino acids that can be fragmented by sequence specific proteases or chemical agents to yield the native protein. The hybrid polypeptide produced by either cell or cell-free based expression systems is now suitable for further processing. This fusion protein can be purified by affinity chromatographic techniques using an immobilized non-antibody capture protein that has the desired affinity for the identification peptide. Alternately the capture protein may contain a label that will allow for the tracking of the functional protein in the system being studied.

Abstract: Table-like structures in documents are located by analysis of sub-regions (crops)
thereof. The analysis involves determining the location of lines having lengths above a
certain threshold and assigning these lines to groups. A set of adjacent lines is
assigned to a common group if the separation between adjacent pairs of lines within the
set is less than a threshold value. The crop selected as the location of the table-like
structure is that having a group with the greatest number of lines. When the technique is
applied to locating title-blocks in technical drawings, it is preferred to analyse crops
corresponding to the corners or ends of the document. It is advantageous to analyse an
image of the document at reduced resolution.

Abstract: A circuit configuration for introducing bias in balanced lines capable of high frequency operation comprises top (30H) and bottom layers (30E) formed on a semiconductor substrate (30). The circuit includes two balanced metallized lines (33,32) positioned on the substrate (30). Each metallized line has a serpentine line (34,35,36,37) configuration connected thereto. The space between the lines is a virtual ground (31). The serpentine line configurations are congruent with elements on the substrate layers (30H,30E) to provide a completed circuit. The elements are coupled to a central metallic area (39), which in turn is coupled to a bias line (38) through an open-line stub (50), which extends beyond the virtual ground (31) and which provides equal capacitive coupling to the balanced lines (33,32). In this manner, the balanced line configuration includes capacitors and inductors which are symmetrically distributed and which provide resonance at the designed operating frequency. The bias line (38) thus formed is RF grounded due to the virtual ground (31) and is disconnected from the actual balanced lines (33,32).
