Abstract: Un procédé pour produire un peptide ou une protéine consiste à produire une protéine fusionnée, laquelle est composée d'un vecteur et d'un peptide ou d'une protéine souhaités liés l'un à l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'un dipeptide clivable par voie enzymatique, tel que Lys-Arg, en utilisant un micro-organisme hôte, et en traitant la protéine obtenue avec au moins une protéase qui peut spécifiquement reconnaître le dipeptide et spécifiquement hydroliser la liaison peptidique de celui-ci. La protéine fusionnée inclut celles du type tandem dans lequel les unités dipeptidiques et les unités peptidiques ou protéiques souhaitées sont liées les unes aux autres itérativement. En fonction du site de rupture du dipeptide, la protéase à utiliser peut être une aminopeptidase qui libère spécifiquement de la terminaison N du dipeptide un aminoacide basique, et/ou une carboxypeptidase qui libère spécifiquement de la terminaison C du dipeptide un aminoacide basique.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un joint obtenu par soudage électrique, qui comporte un corps principal et, dans le prolongement de sa direction axiale, un matériau en alliage magnétique incorporé dans le corps principal à proximité de sa surface de jointure. Dans la partie destinée à former une zone froide sur la surface extérieure du corps principal, on prévoit un élément barrière. La surface de jointure du corps principal est alors mise en contact avec l'élément à joindre. Dans ces conditions, lorsqu'on applique un courant haute fréquence au matériau en alliage magnétique par induction électromagnétique, le matériau en alliage magnétique génère de la chaleur et le corps principal s'assemble par fusion avec l'élément à joindre. Etant donné que l'élément barrière protège le matériau en alliage magnétique contre les ondes électromagnétiques, ce matériau ne génère pas de chaleur et la zone froide est alors formée dans cette partie.

Abstract: A positioning device (59) having two transport arms (77,81) for alternately transferring plate-shaped objects from a storage position into an operational position. The transport arms are each displaceable by means of a separate manipulator (75,79), so that a quick exchange of the objects is possible. The manipulators each comprise two parallel Y-guides (83,85,97,99) which are fastened to a frame, and an X-guides (91,101) which is displaceable along the two Y-guides, while the transport arms are each displaceable along one of the X-guides. 
     The positioning device is used in an optical lithographic device for alternately placing masks (49) on a mask support (19). A machine frame of the optical lithographic device to which the mask support is fastened is coupled to the frame of the positioning device by means of spring members.

Abstract: A catheter with a cylindrical vessel support (5) of the self-expanding type is made of a permeable network of mutually crossing, rigid threads (6) and comprises a tubular outer catheter shaft (3) which receives the tensioned vessel support (5) on its distal end, and an inner catheter (4) which is displaceable in the outer catheter (3) and exposes a passage for a guide wire (9) in its interior. On its proximal end the vessel support (5) is secured in its tensioned state such that it forms a permeable network cone (7). This catheter is to be developed further in such a way that it can be advanced under secure guidance along a guide wire, that it does not collect any vascular fluid during its advance in the vessel and that it prevents injuries to the vessel wall by the edge of the distal catheter opening. For this purpose, the invention proposes that the rigid threads (6) forming the network be joined again at their ends and anchored distally on a tip (10), so that a second network cone (11), which is arranged as a mirror image to the first cone, is formed on the distal end of the vessel support (5). The tip (10) on which the threads (6) are anchored allows the guide wire (9) to pass through in its inside and is shaped on the outside such that it seals the distal opening of the outer catheter (3) when the latter completely receives the tensioned vessel support (5). When the tip (10) seals the outer catheter (3) it extends distally in a manner such that its distal end tapers relative to the distal opening of the outer catheter (3). <IMAGE>
