Patent EP-1203086-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OZEKI YOSHIHIRO
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2000-07-19
Abstract: The invention provides novel, carrot-derived MITE-like elements (transposable elements). It further provides transcriptional activation elements comprising at least one transposable element, in particular one of the above MITE-like elements. Specifically, it provides transcriptional activation elements having a DNA comprising the nucleotide sequence shown under SEQ ID NO:1 or a functional equivalent thereto and/or a DNA comprising the nucleotide sequence shown under SEQ ID NO:2 or a functional equivalent thereto. The transcriptional activation elements of the invention can increase or activate the reduced expression of a foreign gene introduced by the transgenic technology. Therefore, the transcriptional activation elements contribute to stable expression of a foreign gene introduced in a plant genome and are useful in stably producing genetically modified plants.

Abstract: A positive acting, composition that can be heat-sensitive is presented, either coated on a lithographic base, or on a printing circuit board base, and comprises a water soluble heat-sensitive resin, a novel adhesion promoter and a radiation absorbing agent - a dye or a pigment. An excellent film forming polymer that comprises acetal units directly pendant from the polymer polyvinyl alcohol backbone may be the only binder resin, when other resins being optional. The solubility of the coated material in the areas exposed to near-IR laser radiation in mild alkaline developers becomes considerably higher, allowing to obtain high resolved patterns of the etch-resistant material on printing circuit boards or lithographic printing plates. The composition can be applied on the substrate from a liquid of laminated as a dry film. Sensitizers may be added to render the composition sensitive to radiation in a non-thermal sense.

IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 2000-12-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for calculating and validating the differential time between the broadcasting of an event and the time at which a user responds. The event may include, for example, the announcement of an auction or a contest on a television program. The differential time for each end-user response is calculated by each end-user device. The user response can be reported back to the service provider in a secure and reliable off-line or real-time manner. Each end-user device can include a secure time-keeping device having a secure clock/calendar feature for calculating the differential time between presentation of the event and the user response. A user is prevented from recording a particular event and thereafter replaying the recorded event and responding to the replayed event, to thereby alter the effective response time. Local and global presentation time information are compared to ensure that each user responds to the initial, real-time event and not a replay.

Abstract: Biological polymers such as polynucleotides are identified as targets in a sample
by exposing the sample to a collection of substrate-bound probes. The
substrates are beads and each bead has a different probe. When a target is
present in a sample it is bound by one or more of the probes, and thereby bound
to certain beads in the collection. Beads binding targets are separated from
beads failing to bind targets, e.g. by a cell sorter, and then subjected to further
analysis. Beads in the collection are additionally tagged (i.e. coded) in such a
way that the identity of any probe, and thus the bound target, is revealed when
the identity of the tag is determined.
