Abstract: Described is a novel family of cell surface serpentine transmembrane antigens. Two of the proteins in this family are exclusively or predominantly expressed in the prostate, as well as in prostate cancer, and thus members of this family have been termed "STEAP" ( S ix  T ransmembrane  E pithelial  A ntigen of the  P rostrate). Four particular human STEAPs are described and characterized herein. The human STEAPs exhibit high degree of structural conservation among them but show no significant structural homology to any known human proteins. The prototype member of the STEAP family, STEAP-1, appears to be a type IIIa membrane protein expressed predominantly in prostate cells in normal human tissues. Structurally, STEAP-1 is a 339 amino acid protein characterized by a molecular topology of six transmembrane domains and intracellular N- and C-termini, suggesting that it folds in a "serpentine" manner into three extracellular and two intracellular loops. STEAP-1 protein expression is maintained at high levels across various stages of prostate cancer. Moreover, STEAP-1 is highly over-expressed in certain other human cancers.

Abstract: N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L-alpha-aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester is produced by hydrogenation of a mixture of 3,3-dimethylbutyraldehyde and a precursor of L-alpha-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester. In particular, N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L-alpha-aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester is produced using an acid salt of L-alpha-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester or N-protected L-alpha-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester. The production method is efficient and low cost, as compared with conventional N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L-alpha-aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester synthesis.

Abstract: In order to improve the efficiency of an X-ray generator, to decrease the number of maintenance men required for an X-ray CT apparatus mounting the X-ray generator, to improve the reliability and to decrease the installation space, the X-ray generator comprises power transfer means for receiving electric power from an AC power source and for transferring it, a converter for converting an AC voltage transferred from the power transfer means into a DC voltage, an inverter for converting the DC voltage of the converter into an alternating current, a high-voltage transformer for boosting the AC voltage converted by the inverter, rectifier means for rectifying the output voltage of the high-voltage transformer into a direct current, and an X-ray tube connected to the rectifier means. The X-ray generator is mounted on a scanner rotating unit of the X-ray CT apparatus. The converter comprises a full-wave rectifier circuit constituted by self-extinguishing switches, inductors connected to the phases at the AC input terminals of the full-wave rectifier circuit, and a converter controller which so controls the self-extinguishing switches that the phase is brought into agreement between the phase current and the phase voltage of the AC power source and that the output voltage of the full-wave rectifier circuit is brought into agreement with a target voltage. The inverter comprises zero-voltage switching means for turning the switching element on and off by setting the voltage of the switching element to be nearly zero at the time when the semiconductor switching element constituting the inverter is turned on and off, current free-wheeling means for free-wheeling the current flowing into the zero-voltage switching means when the zero-voltage switching means is shut off, and control means for controlling the timing for turning the switching element of the inverter on and off in response to signals for setting the voltage to be applied to the X-ray tube and for setting the current to be fed to the X-ray tube. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides semiconductor materials including a gallium nitride material layer formed on a silicon substrate and methods to form the semiconductor materials. The semiconductor materials include a transition layer formed between the silicon substrate and the gallium nitride material layer. The transition layer is compositionally-graded to lower stresses in the gallium nitride material layer which can result from differences in thermal expansion rates between the gallium nitride material and the substrate. The lowering of stresses in the gallium nitride material layer reduces the tendency of cracks to form. Thus, the invention enables the production of semiconductor materials including gallium nitride material layers having few or no cracks. The semiconductor materials may be used in a number of microelectronic and optical applications.

Abstract: Specific transfer methods and articles to impart a metal-ion based antimicrobial finish to recipient textile surfaces. Such treatments preferably comprise silver ions, particularly as constituents of inorganic metal salts or zeolites. In particular, the inventive method involves the application of a solid, inorganic antimicrobial material to a donor substrate (such as a dryer sheet), and the subsequent placement of such a substrate within a tumble drying machine containing textile fabrics and operating the machine. The donor substrate, upon contact with the recipient textile fabrics, transfers antimicrobially effective amounts of the metal-ion based compounds to such recipient fabrics thereby imparting at least a temporary antimicrobial finish over at least a portion of such fabrics. The donor substrates, with either the antimicrobial compound alone or mixed with standard tumble dryer additives (such as perfumes, fabric softeners, fiber lubricants, and the like) are also contemplated within this invention.
