Abstract: A method of identifying transcription factors comprising providing cells with a nucleic acid sequence at least comprising a sequence CACCT (SEQ ID NO:1) as bait for the screening of a library encoding potential transcription factors and performing a specificity test to isolate said factors. Preferably, the bait comprises twice the CACCT (SEQ ID NO:1) sequence, more particularly the bait comprises one of the sequences CACCT-N-CACCT (a first SEQ ID NO:1 and a second SEQ ID NO:1 separated by N), CACCT-N-AGGTG (SEQ ID NO:1 and SEQ ID NO:3 separated by N), AGGTG-N-CACCT (SEQ ID NO:3 and SEQ ID NO:1 separated by N), or AGGTG-N-AGGTG (a first SEQ ID NO:3 and a second SEQ ID NO:3 separated by N), wherein N is a spacer sequence. The transcription factors identified using the methods of the invention include separated clusters of zinc fingers, such as, for example, a two-handed zinc finger transcription factor. Also, at least one such zinc finger transcription factor, denominated as SIP1, induces tumor metastasis by down regulation of the expression of E-cadherin. Compounds interfering with SIP1 activity can thus be used to prevent tumor invasion and metastasis.

Abstract: A scrambling code generating apparatus of a downlink transmitter in a UMTS mobile communication system, which uses one primary scrambling code for separation of base stations and multiple secondary scrambling codes for channel separation. The apparatus includes a first m-sequence generator for generating a first m-sequence and a second m-sequence generator for generating a second m-sequence. A first summer adds the first and second m-sequences to generate the primary scrambling code. A plurality of first masking sections each shift the first m-sequence, and a plurality of second masking sections corresponding to the respective first masking sections each shifts the second m-sequence. A plurality of second summers each adds one of the first shifted m-sequences with the second m-sequence corresponding to the first m-sequence. The output of the second summers thus generates the multiple secondary scrambling codes. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A transponder includes a data memory and a mechanism for contactless interaction with a base station. The transponder is brought (1) into an active field of the base station. Before the transponder is deactivated (7) by the base station by the transfer of a command signal (5), the authorization of the base station for deactivation (7) is checked (4). Before the transfer of the command signal (5) an admission signal which contains first admission information is transmitted (3) from the base station to the transponder. The first admission information with second admission information stored in the data memory is processed by the transponder into authorization information. Based on the authorization information it is decided (4) whether the command signal is accepted (7) or rejected (8). Thus the transponder whilst keeping secret the data present in the transponder may be reliably deactivated (7) or reactivated.

An insulating wall ( 28 ) and an inner shell ( 25 ) define a sintering chamber ( 16 ) for sintering an object to be sintered ( 10 ). Thermal equilibrium is maintained between the inner shell ( 25 ) and the object to be sintered ( 10 ), and the object to be sintered ( 10 ) is completely pseudo-adiabatically isolated to achieve more uniform and small energy consuming sintering. The thickness of the insulating wall ( 28 ) increases gradually from an inlet ( 20 ) toward an outlet ( 21 ). The object to be sintered ( 10 ) is fed by a carriage provided in a sintering furnace from the inlet ( 20 ) to the outlet ( 21 ) in the sintering chamber ( 16 ). Thereby, a temperature distribution corresponding to a plurality of processes can be easily formed in one furnace to sinter continuously the object to be sintered ( 10 ) in the furnace.

Abstract: A method for a location update in a mobile communication system with a home location register (HL) and visitor location registers (VL) is described. The visitor location registers (VL) serve different parts of the area covered by the communication system and the home location register (HL) holds a data record assigned to a user, the data record comprising parameters for the establishment of connections with the user and an identification of the visitor location register (VL) presently serving the user. Parameters from the record can be copied from the home location register (HL) to the visitor location register (VL) serving the user. In the method it is detected that a user has entered the area served by a visitor location register (VL) and a location update message (18) is sent which indicates the identity of the visitor location register (VL) to the home location register (HL) and stored in the data record for the user. When the establishment of a connection with the user is requested, parameters from the data record in the home location register (HL) are sent to the serving visitor location register (VL) during the establishment of the connection. Location registers and programs embodying the invention are also described. <IMAGE>
