Title: Identification of specific binding partners binding to (poly)peptides encoded by genomic dna fragments or ests
Inventor: FRISCH CHRISTIAN
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2000-06-30
Abstract: The present invention relates to the generation of specific binding partners  binding to (poly)peptides encoded by genomic DNA fragments or ESTs. The (poly)peptides are expressed as part of fusion proteins which are forming inclusion bodies on expression in host cells. The inclusion bodies are used to generate binding partners which bind specifically to said (poly)peptides. Th e specific binding partners, in particular immunoglobulins or fragments thereo f, are useful for analysis and functional characterisation of proteins encoded by nucleic acid sequences comprising the corresponding genomic DNA fragments or  ESTs. The invention further relates to nucleic acid molecules, vectors and host cells to be used in the methods of the present invention. The invention  further relates to the use of fusion proteins comprising the first N-termina l domain of the geneIII protein of filamentous phage as fusion partner for the  expression of a (poly)peptide/protein fused to said fusion partner, and to methods for the expression of (poly)peptide/proteins.

Filed: 2001-06-05
Abstract: An Internet system includes an original server that transmits its contents to a platform server. The platform server collects the contents, and broadcasts them to receivers, through satellite channels via a communications satellite. When the contents transmitted from a satellite Internet subnetwork includes contents requested by user terminals, the receivers select the desired contents, and deliver them to the user terminals . When the contents do not include the desired contents, the receivers receive them from a CATV Internet subnetwork or a terrestrial Internet subnetwork, and delivers them. Thus, the Internet system can selects the channels in response to the traffic of the channels or to the desired contents.

Title: Plaque offset photosensible positive et procede de production correspondant
Inventor: YAGISAWA HIROYUKI
IPC: B41C1/10
Filed: 1999-11-12
Abstract: On prépare une plaque d'impression photosensible positive dont la photosensibilité concerne les rayons de l'infrarouge proche qui ne provoquent pas de changement chimique dans un constituant photosensible. Le matériau photosensible possède une structure inclinée du point de vue de la dissolution de la partie irradiée dans un révélateur alcalin. Le taux de dissolution est tel qu'il augmente en continu depuis la partie de surface supérieure du matériau photosensible jusqu'à la partie inférieure du matériau photosensible. Cet effet peut être accru par diffusion d'un matériau, de préférence un composé polaire, tel que H¿2?O, à partir de la surface en direction de la partie inférieure interne du matériau photosensible. Des techniques de réalisation de la diffusion consistent à placer la surface du matériau photosensible en contact avec un milieu très humide ou à recouvrir le matériau photosensible avec une couche d'un matériau protecteur (du papier) contenant de l'humidité, et à chauffer le composite qui en résulte. Le matériau photosensible peut renfermer un agent supprimant la solubilité, tel qu'un ester d'acide sulfonique ou un composé ayant un squelette triarylméthane.

Abstract: A system and method for integrating one or more external systems, where the integration is achieved through the collaboration of an engine and one or more adapters. The engine can be configured with a set of rules that defines how messages are distributed among the adapters, and is responsible for enforcing those rules. Each adapter is associated with an external system. Each adapter is responsible for translating messages received from the associated external system into a common messaging protocol and for transmitting the translated messages to the engine. In addition, each adapter is responsible for translating messages in the common messaging protocol received from the engine and for transmitting the translated messages to the associated external system. Engines and adapters may be distributed among several computers.

Title: Method and system for reporting events in telecommunication networks
Inventor: HOWE WALTER WESLEY
IPC: H04Q7/20
Filed: 2001-10-19
Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for reporting to subscribers, wireless network events in a plurality of formats and languages depending upon the particular subscriber group to which a wireless subscriber belongs. When a subscriber requests a call, a switching node in the network invokes a trigger that identifies a location register for routing the call and sends a route request to the location register. While processing the route request, if the location register detects an event that would prevent the call from being routed, the location register identifies the subscriber group of the wireless subscriber and determines a directory number associated with the identified subscriber group and the detected event. The location register then returns the determined directory number to the switching node. Using the determined directory number, the switching node establishes the call to a message node, where a message associated with the determined directory number is executed. Accordingly, the wireless network reports the detected event in a format and language that the wireless subscriber, or an entity attempting to communicate with the wireless subscriber, can recognize.

Title: Device for dispensing volatile materials
Inventor: SHORT MICHAEL E
IPC: A01M1/20
Filed: 2000-02-10
Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices for dispensing volatile vapors such as insecticides. Table-like carrier members provide a compartment for the volatile material. One or more table leg structures extend down from a table top to support a cavity in the table top a distance above a burner element. This results in more moderate and uniform heating, thereby permitting efficient release of the volatile material over a longer period of time. In some versions the table leg structures and table top are formed as separate pieces and designed to permit side-to-side ventilation under the volatile.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des compositions et procédés destinées à abaisser le taux de lipoprotéines à basse densité (LDL) ou de cholestérol dans le sérum ou pour réduire le transport de cholestérol depuis l'intestin vers le sang ou la lymphe. Elle est fondée sur une observation selon laquelle un gène connu sous la désignation d'ABC1 est nécessaire au transport du cholestérol depuis la lumière intestinale vers le flux sanguin. Un phénotype de poule mutante connu sous le nom de poule WHAM, caractérisé par des taux réduits de LDL dans le sérum et le transport réduit de cholestérol, a facilité la découverte de cette fonction du gène ABC1. Les techniques permettant de réduire l'activité d'ABC1 dans les cellules de la paroi intestinale permettent d'abaisser le taux de cholestérol.
