Title: Process for the production of chlorosilicates, and their use
IPC: C04B7/28
Filed: 1990-03-02
Abstract: Halide-containing residues from waste gas purification are, if they have a content of water-soluble constituents, virtually unutilisable and can be put into landfill only with restrictions. As a result of the novel process, the constituents which can be eluted with water are incorporated into a mineral matrix in such a way that a markedly reduced susceptibility to elution is obtained. It also becomes possible to convert the residues into a product which can be used as a hydraulic binder. The halide-containing residues are, as constituents of a raw meal for the manufacture of chlorosilicates, subjected to a thermal treatment.

Title: Cloning and characterization of the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor.
Inventor: THORNER MICHAEL OLIVER
IPC: C12N1/21
Filed: 1993-09-09
Abstract: Growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) receptor binding has been characterized using a unique binding assay utilizing iodinated GHRH probes. Photoaffinity GHRH probes have been constructed which allow for photolabeling and characterization of the receptor. In addition, high affinity biotinylated GHRH analogs have been constructed. Solubilization of GHRH-R/GHRH complexes and extraction of specifically bound GHRH using a mild detergent solution, followed by affinity chromotography, leads to a substantially purified GHRH-R isolate. Electrophoretic treatment of the GHRH-R isolate produces GHRH-R of sufficient purity to conduct sequencing of the receptor. Cloning of a gene encoding for polypeptides (protein or fragments thereof) having GHRH-R activity is accomplished using a bacterial host, and the cloned gene is expressed in a mammalian cell line.
