Abstract: The present invention relates to isolated genes originating from Beta vulgaris, sugar beet, that are involved in responses to stress situations. The genes were isolated from a sugar beet cDNA library screened in a functional selection procedure with transformed yeast cells that were able to grow in selection medium with high salt concentrations. Subsequently these genes were sequenced and further characterized. One of the genes is a sugar beet casein kinase α subunit, one is a sugar beet dihydroorotase, one is a sugar beet translation initiation factor 1A and two others are of a unknown protein type. All of these isolated plant genes were functional as stress tolerance enhancers in yeast cells and are therefore useful to confer stress tolerance to an organism when transfected herein. More particularly, these genes can be used to render crops resistant to stress situations like osmotic stress caused by salt, drought, cold or frost.

Abstract: A spinal implant assembly comprises a connection assembly, an elongated spinal implant, and a bone fastener, such as a bone screw, engaged within a vertebra. The connection assembly includes a body defining a first opening for receiving the elongated spinal implant, a second opening for receiving a bone fastener and a plug. The first opening is perpendicular to and overlapping the second opening to allow direct contact between the spinal implant and the bone fastener. The second opening includes a plug slot having a wall at an end opposite the first opening that defines an engagement surface. The plug includes a mating surface that forms an interlocking engagement with the engagement surface of the wall. An opposite second surface of the plug defines a groove for receiving the elongated stem of the bone fastener adjustable to a desired angular orientation and height. The body can include a first and a second side walls converging toward the center of the second opening with a gap to receive the stem of the bone fastener. The connection assembly further comprises means for urging the elongated spinal implant to press against the bone fastener and the plug which, subsequently, is pressed against the engagement surface of the wall.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des modulateurs de l'activité du récepteur (AT4) d'aminopeptidase (IRAP)/d'angiotensine IV régulée par l'insuline. Ces modulateurs ont la capacité (a) d'augmenter la concentration locale d'une large gamme de peptides, améliorant ainsi l'activité de ces peptides; (b) de réguler l'apport de glucose dans les cellules et tissus, modifiant ainsi l'état métabolique ou d'énergie de ces cellules ou tissus; (c) de déclencher le deuxième messager ou de signaler les voies associées à la fonction IRAP/AT4; et/ou (d) d'augmenter l'expression de IRAP/AT4 de la surface cellulaire. Ces modulateurs pourraient améliorer l'apprentissage et la mémoire chez les sujets normaux comme les sujets souffrant des troubles mnésiques. De plus, ils stimulent la prolifération cellulaire tout en réduisant l'apoptose, ce qui permet de stimuler le développement de croissance tissulaire et de modifier l'angiogénèse. Ils s'avèrent donc utiles dans la réparation et la régénération des tissus.

Abstract: A bicycle pedal having relative height variability between a clipless binding designed to engage a cleat recessed within a shoe sole, and a shoe supporting surface surrounding this binding, on both sides of the pedal. The relative height is sufficiently variable to allow the pedal to be used in either clipless binding operation or in unbound operation, on one or both sides of the pedal, respectively. The setting of the relative height between the bindings and the shoe supporting surfaces is effected on both sides of the pedal simultaneously, upon a single actuation by the cyclist. In addition, the cyclist may set the pedal to automatically change to unbound mode upon the release of the shoe cleat from the binding.

Abstract: A Bluetooth master unit (20) polls a slave unit to enable the slave to resynchronize to the master, by sending POLL packets with sufficient frequency to maintain a connection to the slave, and in the intervals between such packets, sending NULL packets with sufficient frequency to maintain synchronization of the slave. By replacing some POLL packets with NULL packets, since the slave does not have to respond to a NULL packet, it can save some power, and there is reduced interference on other piconets. The frequency of the remaining POLL packets is set according to a Link Supervision Timeout (to avoid this timer expiring and thus keep the Bluetooth Link to the slave alive) and according to the time since the master received the last packet from the slave. <IMAGE>
