Abstract: The invention relates to apparatus and a method for the selective storage of portions of data which are to be used in the subsequent generation of at least first and second programmes from the data. If it is identified that the first and second programmes which are to be stored are shown in sequence on the same channel a decision is made not to store a portion of data which includes data common to that which would be required to be stored for both programmes. This allows the same tuner to be used to obtain the data for both programmes and thereby save on required storage space and reduce the tuner capacity required.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a handover method that a current coordinator transfers a coordinating function of controlling a network to a different device configuring the network. The present invention relates to a method of selecting an optimal device as a coordinator in selecting the different device using priority information decided by a prescribed evaluation reference. And, the present invention relates to a method of simplifying a procedure in a manner of transmitting relevant information together with a handover request message. In a wireless network including a coordinator, a secondary coordinator is decided in advance. If the coordinator is suddenly unable to perform a function, the present invention relates to a method of enabling the function of the coordinator to be performed by the decided second-ary coordinator. Thus, a process for transferring the coordinating function without the hand-over process is called a recovery process. The present invention relates to the recovery method and a method of deciding a secondary coordinator to perform a recovery. In the method of deciding the secondary coordinator, a method of deciding a more proper coordinator using information on coordinator priority is provided.

Abstract: The disclosure provides methods and kits for preparing sequencing library to detect chromosomal abnormality using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) without the need of first isolating the cfDNA from a liquid fraction of a test sample. In some embodiments, the method involves reducing the binding between the cfDNA and nucleosomal proteins without unwinding the cfDNA from the nucleosomal proteins. In some embodiments, the reduction of binding may be achieved by treating with a detergent or heating. In some embodiments, the method further involves freezing and thawing the test sample before reducing the binding between the cfDNA and the nucleosomal proteins. In some embodiments, the test sample is a peripheral blood sample from a pregnant woman including cfDNA of both a mother and a fetus, wherein the methods may be used to detect fetal chromosomal abnormality such as copy number variation. In other embodiments, the test sample is a peripheral blood sample from a patient known or suspected to have cancer, wherein the methods can be used to detect chromosomal abnormalities in the cfDNA of the patient. Kits for detection of copy number variation of the fetus using the disclosed methods are also provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to the use of certain glycosyltransferase variants having N-terminal truncation deletions. Contrary to previous findings certain truncations were found to exhibit sialidase enzymatic activity, particularly a variant of human sialyltransferase (hST6Gal-I) with a truncation deletion involving the first 89 N-terminal amino acids of the respective wild-type polypeptide. A fundamental finding documented in the present disclosure is that there exists a variant of this enzyme which is capable of catalyzing transfer of a glycosyl moiety as well as hydrolysis thereof. Thus, disclosed is a specific exemplary variant of mammalian glycosyltransferase, nucleic acids encoding the same, methods and means for recombinantly producing the variant of mammalian glycosyltransferase and use thereof, particularly for sialylating in a quantitatively controlled manner terminal acceptor groups of glycan moieties being part of glycoproteins such as immunoglobulins.
