Abstract: Novel carbonyl hydrolase variants derived from the DNA sequences of naturally-occuring or recombinant non-human carbonyl hydrolases are disclosed. The variant carbonyl hydrolases, in general, are obtained by in vitro modification of a precursor DNA sequence encoding the naturally-occurring or recombinant carbonyl hydrolase to generate the substitution of a plurality of amino acid residues in the amino acid sequence of a precursor carbonyl hydrolase. Such variant carbonyl hydrolases have properties which are different from those of the precursor hydrolase, such as altered proteolytic activity, altered stability, etc. The substituted amino acid residues correspond to positions +76 in combination with one or more of the following residues +99, +101, +103, +104, +107, +123, +27, +105, +109, +126, +128, +135, +156, +166, +195, +197, +204, +206, +210, +216, +217, +218, +222, +260, +265 and/or +274 in bacillus amyloliquefaciens subtilisin.

Abstract: The container has fold-down side walls (1-4). When erected, neighbouring side walls are locked to each other, pref. in the container corners near the top edges. This forms a construction, which is resistant to lateral forces. The inner and outer faces of the side walls are aligned flush, and overlap on the sides. Locking is by locking hooks, which engage into or over locking elements with one or more angled surfaces. The elements are pref. formed as turning knobs. Pref. the opposite narrow side walls (3,4) have U-shaped projecting sections (20) to engage with the long side walls (1,2).

Abstract: It is checked whether a suitable memory unit (MEM 1) is coupled with an interface unit (INTER 1) of the automatic vending machine (AUT) so that there can be a transmission of data, and also whether a pay collecting unit (PAY) has given a release signal. When these two conditions are satisfied, a required data set or software program is stored in the memory (MEM 1), so that its use is circumscribed and is not simply a copy recorded on tape cassette. For this purpose the equipment includes a use-shrinking unit (RESTR) which implants certain bounds on the practical application the program.

Abstract: The present invention determines whether two discrete continuous segments of handwritten input S1 (210) and S2 (220) form part of the same handwritten input or are part of more than one, separate handwritten inputs. The present method calculates one or more substantially parallel distance disposed substantially parallel to the writing access (210) and compares these distances to one or more predefined thresholds. The predefined thresholds specify minimum distance measures which must be exceeded by the substantially parallel distances for the discrete continuous segments to be judged as belonging to separate segments of handwritten input.
