Abstract: The present invention provides improved adenovirus vectors and packaging cell lines. One type of improved adenoviral vector comprises deletions within the E2b region of the adenoviral genome. These E2b-deleted virus are used in conjunction with novel cell lines that constitutively express E2b gene products. The present invention further provides adenoviral vectors deleted for all viral coding regions. These "gutted" vectors permit the transfer of large genes to cells as demonstrated herein by the transfer of the dystrophin gene to the muscle of mice. The E2b-deleted vectors and the gutted vectors provide improved adenoviral vectors useful for a wide variety of gene therapy applications.

Abstract: The level detectors provides signals indicating level change, with timing circuit determining duration of pump action necessary. The submersible pump includes a pump (1) driven by an electric motor (2) controlled by a control circuit (3). The whole assembly is intended to be submerged in a container (C) holding effluent. The control circuit includes a first detector (6) sensing the level of effluent in the container providing a change of state signal when the level reaches a first level (NH). A second detector (8) determines when the level falls below a second level (NM) which is lower than the first level. The circuit includes provision to determine the time elapsing between the change of state of the first detector and the change of state of the second detector, in order to control the operating time necessary for the operation of the pump. The two detectors may be mounted on the pump itself.

Abstract: An animal feed containing a carboxylic acid either as the sole active ingredient or in combination with 1 alpha -hydroxylated vitamin D compounds and/or phytase. The carboxylic acid or the combination of carboxylic acid with vitamin D compounds and/or phytase causes improved utilization of phosphorus, calcium, potassium, magnesium, zinc, iron and manganese in animal feed so as to minimize, or perhaps eliminate, the need for supplemental quantities of these minerals in an animal diet. In addition, low phosphorus containing animal feeds reduce the polluting effects on the environment since less phosphorus is excreted in the animal's feces which are then spread on agricultural land.

Abstract: An electric motor is described in which a position sensor is provided which generates a plurality of output signals each dependent upon the relative position of the rotor and the stator. These signals are processed to generate a set of commutation control signals for controlling the commutation of the drive current to the stator coils. In one embodiment, a phase shift can be electronically applied to each of the position sensor coils to adjust the timing of the switching in accordance with the motor's current speed and load demands. In another embodiment, these signals are also used in a servo-control loop, in order to control, for example, the speed and/or output torque of the motor.

Abstract: This invention concerns a continuous manufacturing process of sections (11) or plates from soft matter (2) which is extruded under heat and encased by at least one strip sheet (3,3), said encased matter subsequently being calendered, shaped to the desired profile and finally cut into lengths. The process is particularly remarkable in that the matter used is a mixture containing a non-synthetic binder and water, so that the mixture becomes sticky by undergoing said heat treatment in an aqueous medium, which assures adhesion of the casing onto the matter during calendering, while the product undergoes at least one drying operation after said calendering operation. The binder is advantageously starch-based and the mixture may also contain a plasticizer, for example containing urea. The invention also concerns an installation for implementation of the process and the products thus obtained. <IMAGE>

Abstract: It is known that proteins, or parts of them, may be rendered non- or less immunogenic to humans or other species by identifying one or more potential T cell epitopes and eliminating them by amino acid modification. Conventionally, certain epitopes may be retained in a protein sequence if the peptides constituting such epitopes are present in endogenous human protein, since they would be recognised as "self". However, it has now been found that even self epitopes may give rise to immune reactions. The invention provides for their elimination, for example by recombinant DNA technology, to render them more useful for administration to humans, for example for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for adapting existing packet-switched LAN infrastructures (e.g. packet-switched Ethernet) so as to be able to provide reserved-bandwidth virtual-circuit switching services in addition to their conventional capabilities. A centralized control point is incorporated within the infrastructure, preferably via a firmware upgrade to an existing enterprise-class switch, that maintains a map of paths between endstations in the network, as well as the bandwidth capabilities of all links and switches along the paths. When a virtual circuit connection between endstations is requested, the centralized control point determines whether the requested bandwidth is available all along the path. If so, the resources along the path are reserved for the connection. Existing switches in the LAN infrastructure are adapted to give priority to packets belonging to the connection, thereby providing the desired QoS for that connection.

Abstract: A wireless communication system 200 comprises a connectionless packet network 201 coupled to a plurality of sites 203-208 that are in wireless communication with a plurality of subscriber units 210-217 logically arranged into a plurality of talk groups having corresponding talk group identifications. In one embodiment, each site maintains mappings 220-225 of at least one multicast address to at least one talk group identification. In another embodiment, individual subscriber units maintain such mappings 320. When a subscriber unit affiliates with a given site and talk group (501, 601), the site identifies a multicast address corresponding to the talk group. Based on the multicast address, the site can participate in traffic targeted for the multicast address and, consequently, for the talk group. In this manner, mobility Processing is decentralized, system calability is improved and call setup delays are minimized.

Title: Polyketide-synthese

Filed: 1999-06-29
Granted: 2010-04-29
Abstract: A polyketide synthase ("PKS") of Type I is a complex multienzyme including a loading domain linked to a multiplicity of extension domains. The first extension module receives an acyl starter unit from the loading domain and each extension module adds a further ketide unit which may undergo processing (e.g. reduction). We have found that the Ksq domain possessed by some PKS's has decarboxylating activity, e.g. generating (substituted) acyl from (substituted) malonyl. The CLF domain of type II PKS's has similar activity. By inserting loading modules including such domains into PKS's not normally possessing them it is possible to control the starter units used.
