Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à de nouvelles interactions de liaison à des protéines, notamment à un régulateur des protéines de signalisation des protéines G (RGS) ainsi qu'à un partenaire de liaison aux protéines non G. Plus particulièrement, l'invention se rapporte à une nouvelle interaction entre RGS9 et des polypeptides d'évectine, à l'utilisation de ces polypeptides ainsi qu'à la production de ces derniers. L'invention se rapporte en outre à l'identification de composés qui peuvent être des agonistes, des antagonistes et/ou des inhibiteurs de RGS9 et/ou de polypeptides d'évectine, et s'avèrent par conséquent potentiellement utiles en thérapie.

Abstract: Mutant RNA polymerases of phagic origin in which the peptide chain is modified by substitution, deletion or addition of at least one amino acid, the modification having the effect of reducing the sensitivity of the RNA polymerases to the initial transcription sequence of the DNA sequence coding for the RNA, for a method for production of the RNA, or proteins coded by the RNA, from given nucleotide sequences, comprising a sequence of DNA coding for the RNA, the transcription of which is placed under the control of a promoter recognised by wild-type RNA polymerases and the mutant RNA polymerases as above. The method has a higher yield of RNA than the yield obtained when using the wild-type RNA polymerases in the presence of the same non-consensual ITS as that found in the sequence of DNA coding for the RNA.

Abstract: A gradation patch image Ip used for determination of tone
characteristics of an apparatus is progressively varied in the tone
level thereof from the maximum tone level (level 255) to the
minimum tone level (level 0). The gradation patch image is
either a toner image continuously and consistently varied in the
tone level thereof (Lotted TID-line) or a toner image having the tone levels
varied stepwise at a smaller pitch than a width of a detection
region of a patch sensor (solid TID-line). In density detection of such a
gradation patch image Ip, toner image densities TID at portions on
either sides in the detection region of the patch sensor
cancel each other out by averaging and hence, only substantially
the toner image density at the center of the detection region
can be obtained.

Abstract: A device and method provide for improved error
compensation in the measurement of process pressure.
The device and method are able to compensate for
diaphragm deformation (offset) and varying dielectric
constants present in a process field environment. The
pressure sensor (56), filled with a dielectric fill-fluid
(95), includes at least three capacitor plates
(144, 146, 148, 150), disposed about a diaphragm (102).
At least two capacitor plates (144, 146) are placed on
one side of a conductive diaphragm (102), and one
capacitor plate (148, 150) is placed on the other side
of the diaphragm (102). The method compensates for both
diaphragm offset and variances in the dielectric
constant of the fill-fluid (95). An error compensated
measurement of differential pressure is a function of
the amount of diaphragm deflection detected at the edge
region (194) subtracted from the amount of diaphragm
deflection detected at the center region (140). One way
of measuring diaphragm deflection is to measure the
changes in capacitances from two capacitors on each side
of the diaphragm (102), and to combine these values to
achieve an error compensated output (R) representative
of the applied differential pressure.

Abstract: Fluid temperature control is achieved by using fuzzy logic rules sets to derive
values of integral gain K I  and proportional gain K P  for use in a proportional-integral
temperature controller operable to generate a valve control signal v(t) representing a
magnitude of an opening in a inlet valve of a heat exchanger operable to regulate the
temperature of the fluid under control of the proportional-integral controller. The
fuzzy rules sets have as inputs fuzzy representations of signals derived from the valve
control signal v(t) and a signal e(t) representing an error in temperature between an
actual measured temperature of the fluid and a desired temperature of the fluid. A
fuzzy logic control module associated with the proportional-integral controller can
implement the fuzzy logic rules sets. The fluid may be, for example, dye in a textiles
dyeing process.
