Abstract: La transduction du signal phéromonal dans des levures implique la liaison de l'hormone à un récepteur de membrane couplé à une protéine G, l'interaction de Cdc24p avec Gβ et produit en dernier lieu la croissance polarisée vers la source d'hormone (partenaire complémentaire) provoquée par des changements dans le cytosquelette. Cette invention concerne trois mutants récessifs de Cdc24p au niveau des acides aminés 189 et 190, qui n'interagissent pas avec Gβ et qui induisent le cytosquelette à se focaliser à côté du dernier site de bourgeonnement plutôt que vers le gradient d'hormone. A l'opposé des mutants Cdc24p décrits précédemment, les mutants qui sont présentés ici ne sont pas affectés dans leur développement végétatif normal et dans les processus induits par hormone, à un autre niveau que celui de l'orientation du cytosquelette.

Abstract: According to the present invention, a device body casing
17 has a liquid chamber 20a for temporarily storing a liquid
to be transported by a pump, a gas chamber 20b, and an extendably
and contractibly deformable pulsation suppression diaphragm 18,
which separate them. The device body casing 17 having an
aperture 27 so as to communicate with 20b, is detachably engaged
with a valve case 23. The valve case 23 is provided with an
automatic gas supply valve mechanism 33 and an automatic gas
exhaust valve mechanism 34, which restrict the amount of the
extendable and contractible deformation of the pulsation
suppression diaphragm 18 within the predetermined range, so
that a liquid pressure inside the liquid chamber 20a and an
atmospheric pressure inside the gas chamber 20b may balance each
other when the discharge pressure of the pump is fluctuated.
The automatic gas exhaust valve mechanism 34 is provided with
a gas exhaust port 32, a gas exhaust valve element 43, and a
slider 48. The gas exhaust port 32 exhausts the gas from the
gas chamber 20b to the outside, when the gas sealing pressure
inside the gas chamber 20b is decreased. The gas exhaust valve
element 43 usually makes the gas exhaust port 32 close. The
slider 48 is operated so that the gas exhaust valve element 43
may usually make the gas exhaust port 32 open, when the pulsation
suppression diaphragm 18 is moved in a direction of reducing 
the liquid chamber 20a so as to exceed the predetermined stroke.
The gas exhaust valve element 43 is disposed on a tip of the
gas exhaust valve rod 45. A rear end of the gas exhaust valve
rod 45 is slidably inserted in the slider 48. The gas exhaust
valve rod 45 is loosely inserted in a through hole 46 of the
spring receiving member 47 fixed to the inside of the gas exhaust
chamber 42 of the valve case 23. On the gas exhaust rod 45,
a spring 49 for a closing state is disposed between the gas
exhaust valve element 43 and the spring receiving member 47,
and a spring 50 for an opening state is disposed between the
spring receiving member 47 and the slider 48.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un véhicule (1) comprenant un cadre présentant deux parties (3, 4) de cadre capables de basculer l'une par rapport à l'autre. Un transmetteur assisté (50) de contre-braquage est connecté à une roue avant directrice (13). Le transmetteur assisté (50) de contre-braquage est commandé en fonction du moment de dévers sur les parties (3, 4) de cadre. Ce dispositif permet d'appliquer un contre-braquage de manière que la partie de dévers des véhicules 'descend dans la courbe' plus rapidement et de sorte que l'on obtient une manoeuvrabilité supérieure. Le transmetteur assisté (50) de contre-braquage peut être utilisé sur des véhicules dotés d'un système actif de dévers doté de moyens de commande, tels que, par exemple, des vérins hydrauliques de dévers (9, 9'), lesquels sont commandés par un capteur en fonction du rayon de la courbe (24). Le moment de dévers généré par les vérins de dévers (9, 9') peut avoir la fonction optionnelle de signal de commande du transmetteur assisté (50) de contre-braquage. Du fait de l'application active du contre-braquage, les vérins de dévers (9, 9') peuvent avoir une structure relativement compacte.

Abstract: The present invention is a water-based binder used when manufacturing
aluminum brazed products such as engine radiators, condensers for car air
conditioners, and the like. The water-based binder is obtained by saponifying
an ester methacrylate polymer that has an acid value and a glass transition
temperature within specified ranges. In the presence of an alcohol that is water
soluble and volatile and has a flash point higher than a specified temperature,
the brazing composition, in which this binder and flux and the like are mixed,
does not have the risk of catching on fire or exploding and also has excellent
wettability and can be uniformly coated onto an aluminum material.
Furthermore, when a binder in which polyoxirane or polyoxazoline is added as
a sub component to this ester methacrylate polymer, which is the main
component, the room temperature adhesion of the brazing composition onto
the aluminum materials is further improved, and thickening of this composition
during coating or storage is also prevented.

Abstract: The apparatus includes an electromagnetic write head generating flux changes (F1,F2) which have a distance from each other when a relative movement occurs between the write head and a magnetic memory card. The distance between the flux changes define the binary information. A path sensor generates clock pulses (TI) dependent on the relative movement. A DMA unit (10) accesses consecutive memory cells of a memory (Sp) in which the number of clock pulses is stored which define the distance between the flux changes dependent on the binary information. A count module (16) counts the clock pulses and controls the write head when the number of clock pulses output by the DMA unit is reached for generating the flux change and causes the DMA unit to output the next number of clock pulses.

Abstract: An operating device for wear tolerance-marked machine elements, especially for braking rail vehicles, has a piston-cylinder unit generating operating force. A piston rod works together with a wear tolerance-equalizing post-adjustment device which makes the operating force available to the machine element to be operated.  A post-adjustment device is constructed in the manner of a hydraulic piston-cylinder unit (2) that performs the wear tolerance post-adjustment by extending an adjusting piston (23). A sensor element detects the wear tolerance and upon attainment of a threshold tolerance, a valve (14) opens which by using the operating pressure of the piston-cylinder unit (1) generating operating force, subjects the post-adjusting piston-cylinder unit to hydraulic fluid.
