Patent EP-1194526-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JACOBS WILLIAM R JR
IPC: C12N1/21
Filed: 2000-07-06
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for high frequency of allelic exchange in the slow-growing mycobacteria using in vitro generated specialized transducing mycobacteriophages, as well as the recombinant slow-growing mycobacteria generated using the disclosed method. A transducing mycobacteriophage of the present invention comprises a conditional mycobacteriophage containing an E. coli bacteriophage lambda cosmid inserted into a non-essential region of the mycobacteriophage, said cosmid containing a mutated DNA substrate which is homologous to a wildtype nucleic acid sequence of a slow-growing mycobacterium. When slow-growing mycobacteria infected with the conditional transducing phage are cultured under conditions wherein the conditional transducing phage does not replicate, the mutated DNA substrate is incorporated into the chromosomal DNA of the slow-growing mycobacteria by homologous recombination, thereby generating the recombinant slow-growing mycobacteria of the present invention. The disclosed method may be used to produce mycobacterial auxotrophs, including leucine and lysine auxotrophs.

Abstract: A wireless system comprises a number of wireless stations for communication with each other through short-range wireless links. In a multiple link data object conveying method, in a data conveying session, a first short-range wireless link is set up between a first and a second wireless station of the wireless system. Upon setting up of the first short-range wireless link, first and second personal identification codes are respectively entered in the first and second wireless stations. Thereafter, a data connection through the first wireless link is only set up if the first and second entered personal identification codes are the same. If the data connection is set up the first personal identification code is stored for later use in the session, and the data object is conveyed through the first wireless link. Then, while using the stored first personal identification code, at least a subsequent short-range wireless link is set up from the first wireless station to a third wireless station. After checking whether the third wireless station returned the same personal identification code as the re-used first personal identification code, the same type of data object is conveyed through the subsequent wireless link.
