Title: Fusion proteins comprising biologically active cargo moiety and transport peptides from the hiv tat protein, their preparation and use
Inventor: BARSOUM JAMES G
IPC: C12N15/87
Filed: 1993-08-19
Abstract: This invention relates to delivery of biologically active cargo molecules such as polypeptides and nucleic acids into the cytoplasm and nuclei of cells  in vitro  and  in vivo.  Intracellular delivery of cargo molecules according to this invention is accomplished by the use of novel transport polypeptides which comprise one or more portions of HIV tat protein and which are covalently attached to cargo molecules. The transport polypeptides of this invention are characterized by the presence of the tat basic region (amino acids 49-57), the absence of the tat cysteine-rich region (amino acids 22-36) and the absence of the tat exon 2-encoded carboxy-terminal domain (amino acids 73-86) of the naturally-occurring tat protein. By virtue of the absence of the cysteine-rich region found in conventional tat proteins, transport polypeptides of this invention solve the problems of spurious trans-activation and disulfide aggregation. The reduced size of the transport polypeptides of this invention also minimizes interference with the biological activity of the cargo molecule.
Patent NZ-255858-A (NZ)
Title: Absorbent article with dynamic elasticised hip panels
Inventor: CLEAR SANDRA HINTZ
IPC: A61F13/514
Filed: 1993-08-23
Abstract: Absorbent articles such as disposable diapers, incontinent briefs, diaper holders, training pants, and the like, that provide dynamic fit about the wearer by the use of elasticized hip panels. Such absorbent articles comprise a liquid pervious topsheet; a liquid impervious backsheet; an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet; elasticized side panels positioned in the side panels of the back waist region; and an elasticized hip panel positioned in the central region of the back waist region. The elasticized hip panel comprises a stretch laminate comprising one or more elongatable components and an elastic hip panel member that are mechanically stretched to allow expansion of the stretch laminate beyond the original planar state of the diaper in the lateral direction. By adding stretch to the middle-back of the absorbent article, the absorbent article is capable of expanding in the back waist region thereby creating a more three-dimensional fit to better contour the hips and buttocks and to more completely wrap the wearer's hips and buttocks. In an alternative embodiment, a single elastic hip panel member is positioned in most of the central region of the back waist region with the stretch laminate being mechanically stretched in selected zones or preferably over the entire area of the elastic hip panel member. The absorbent core is either stretchable or preferably not attached to the stretch laminate in the mechanically stretched zones to not encumber the stretch of the stretch laminate. The topsheet is also preferably stretchable.
