Abstract: A virus-producing cell sustaining the ability to produce viruses at high titer is successfully constructed by expressing the virus structural gene under the regulation of EF1 alpha  promoter. In this virus-producing cell, the virus structural gene is ligated to a selection marker gene via IRES and domains other than the protein coding domain are eliminated from the DNA encoding virus structural proteins. Thus, reduction of the titer due to cell passages can be prevented and emergence of wild type viruses caused by unfavorable recombination of the virus genome can be inhibited.

Abstract: Multispecific molecules which induce effector cell-mediated killing of target cells are disclosed. The molecules are "multispecific" because they bind to multiple (two or more), distinct targets, one of which is an Fc receptor on the surface of an immune cell. Multispecific molecules of the invention include molecules comprised of at least one portion which binds to an Fc receptor, such as an Fc gamma  receptor (e.g., Fc gamma RI) or an Fc alpha  receptor, and at least one other portion which binds to a different target, such as an antigen on a tumor cell or a pathogen. Multispecific molecules of the invention also include antigen "multimer complexes" comprised of multiple (i.e., two or more) portions which bind to a molecule on an antigen presenting cell (APC), such as an Fc receptor, linked to one or more antigens. These multimer complexes target antigens, such as self-antigens, to APCs to induce and/or enhance internalization (endocytosis), processing and/or presentation of the antigen by the APC. Therefore, these molecules can be used to induce or enhance an immune response either <i>in vivo</i> or <i>in vitro</i> against a normally non-immunogenic protein, such as a self-antigen. In a particular embodiment, at least one portion of the multispecific molecules comprises a humanized or human antibody or antibody fragment (e.g., ScFv or Fab') which binds to an Fc receptor or a receptor on a target cell (e.g., EGF-R or HER2).

Abstract: An electronic locking system comprises a cylinder housed within and rotatable with respect to a shell. A key has a power supply. At least one of the key and the cylinder is capable of generating a signal when the key is electrically connected with the cylinder. An electrically powered locking mechanism is housed within the cylinder and includes a lock member moveable between an open position and a locked position. The lock member in the locked position interferes with movement of the cylinder. A power source is connected to the locking mechanism in response to the signal. The locking mechanism allows movement of the lock member from the locked position to the open position in response to the signal so that the cylinder may be rotated within the shell. The cylinder further includes an interfering member that resists movement of the locking member. In addition, a biasing mechanism urges the cylinder toward a home position when the cylinder is rotated away from the home position.

Abstract: The present invention provides for delivering information, such as a notification or other content, to a select communication device when defined event and location criteria are satisfied. A profile is established to define the event and location criteria along with a method for delivering the information. Typically, the receipt of event indicia indicating the occurrence of an event is compared with the event criteria in the profile. When the event indicia satisfies the event criteria, location indicia is gathered and compared with the defined location criteria. Alternatively, a trigger corresponding to location is received and compared with the location criteria before determining whether an event corresponding to the event criteria is satisfied. When both the event occurrence and location indicia match the event and location criteria, the information is sent to the appropriate communication device. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention concerns to the use of a powder comprising 99.95 to 95% of at least one polyamide and 0.05 to 5% of at least one silane for coating metals. This powder may be prepared by simple dry blending of the constituents. The silane can also be added to the molten polyamide in a mixing device and the resulting product reduced to powder. The addition of silane makes it possible to significantly improve electrostatic application by preventing a substantial portion of the powder from falling off during the electrostatic discharge which follows application, while providing lasting adhesion between the coating and metal. Advantageously, the silane is chosen from aminopropyltriethoxysilane and aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. The invention also concerns a method of coating an object with a film resulting from melting a thin layer of the powder.
