Abstract: The present invention provides a method and compositions for synthesizing an oligopeptide or polypeptide by convergent assembly of a plurality of pairs of oligopeptides in chemical ligation reactions. An important aspect of the present invention is an oligopeptide having a C-terminal disulfide-protected carboxythioester group that can be deprotected to spontaneously generate a free C-terminal thioester moiety. This allows a single precursor to participate in a succession of chemical ligation reactions, thereby making the convergent synthesis approach possible. The present invention is useful in methods for chemical synthesis of oligopeptides, polypeptides and proteins, and improves the efficiency of native chemical ligation reactions, particularly where four or more peptide fragments are used to assemble an oligopeptide, polypeptide or protein product.

Abstract: Shrinking a database file is performed by manipulating pages within the file such
that all empty pages reside at the end of the file. Non-empty pages from the end of the file
are written to empty pages at the start of the file. Repeating this process, the correct
number of times, results in all of the empty pages residing at the end of the file. Once this
is achieved, the file is truncated such that the space consumed by all empty and
discardable pages is returned to the file system. Truncating the file involves traversing the
file backwards from the end of the file until the first non-empty page is found. The file is
truncated after the last non-empty page.

Abstract: A rear air conditioning unit ( 12 ) is disposed behind a rear bulkhead ( 9 )
separating a rear portion of a passenger compartment ( 2 ). The rear air conditioning
unit ( 12 ) takes in inside-and-outside air for air conditioning via a rear cowl portion
( 10 ) disposed above the rear bulkhead head ( 9 ) and blows off conditioned air into
the passenger compartment ( 2 ). 
     Accordingly, since a layout of an air conditioning unit disposed at the front
side of the vehicle is omitted, an engine ( 5 ) as a heavy article can be located at the
center side of the vehicle and a yaw inertia moment of the vehicle can be reduced,
thereby improving maneuverability and stability of the vehicle and dynamic
performance of the vehicle. Further, a layout of the rear air conditioning unit ( 12 ) and
induction of the inside-and-outside air can be made compatible.

Abstract: B-Cell malignancies, such as the B-cell subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, are significant contributors to cancer mortality. The response of B-cell malignancies to various forms of treatment is mixed. Traditional methods of treating B-cell malignancies, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, have limited utility due to toxic side effects. Immunotherapy with anti-CD20 antibodies have also provided limited success. The use of antibodies that bind with the CD22 antigen, however, provides an effective means to treat B-cell malignancies such as indolent and aggressive forms of B-cell lymphomas, and acute and chronic forms of lymphatic leukemias. Moreover, immunotherapy with anti-CD22 antibodies requires comparatively low doses of antibody protein, and can be used effectively in multimodal therapies.

Abstract: A communication system (100) is provided for transmitting data to
mobile receivers utilizing a subcarrier within a commercial FM channel
of a radio station (55). The data transmitted is first encoded in
encoder (112), utilizing a forward error correction code. The sequence
of the encoded data is altered in interleaver (116), subdivided into a
plurality of subframes, in framing and synchronization circuit (120),
which also adds channel state bits to each subframe. The framed data
is modulated onto the subcarrier in the differential quadrature phased
shift keying modulator (130), the output of which is coupled to the FM
modulator (52) of radio station transmitter (50). The transmitted
radio frequency signals may be received by a vehicle antenna (12) for
coupling to the vehicle's FM receiver (80). The modulated subcarrier
is recovered from the FM demodulator (84) of the receiver (80), the
modulated subcarrier being demodulated to recover the encoded digital
data therefrom. The channel state bits included with the data are
extracted from the digital data and utilized to form a data reliability
factor for each bit of the encoded data. The data reliability factors
thus obtained are associated with each bit of the data in a
deinterleaver (360). Deinterleaver (360) provides each data bit in
proper sequence, with its associated data reliability factor to decoder
(370). The decoded digital data is provided to a vehicle traffic
computer (90) for processing and presentation of traffic information to
a user on a display (92).

Abstract: L'invention concerne une composition d'extrait de rocou contenant des cis et trans-géranylgéraniols (GG) et des tocotriénols (T3) non substitués en C5, exempts de tocophérol. Cette composition augmente la synthèse de novo des isoprénoïdes intermédiaires et de produits protéiques distaux, notamment de la coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) endogène, des dolichols (DL) et de toutes les protéines GG-prénylées et DL-glycosylées subséquentes, y compris les hemes GG-porphyrinés. Cette régénération des produits intermédiaires et distaux au moyen d'une composition d'extrait de rocou permet de faire rétrocéder les maladies d'origine myotoxique (qu'elles soient d'origine médicamenteuse ou non médicamenteuse), notamment les maladies affectant les muscles, les reins, les yeux, le tractus gastro-intestinal et la peau, les nerfs, le sang, ainsi que les syndromes affectant les fonctions énergétiques et la protection des LDL, liés aux CoQ10. Cette composition d'extrait de rocou augmente par voie anabolique la synthèse de novo endogène de CoQ10 au moyen d'une élongation/prénylation d'une chaîne latérale, et inversement, le CoQ10 augmente par voie catabolique la synthèse de novo endogène des GG au moyen d'une beta-oxydation de CoQ10. Cette composition d'extrait de rocou abaisse en outre la synthèse de novo et l'élimination des triglycérides (TG) chez l'humain au moyen d'une activation de PPAR et d'une inactivation de SREBP. Cette diminution des TG sous l'effet de l'extrait de rocou, provoque la régression des troubles d'insulinorésistance (IR) et des syndromes métaboliques (MS), du pré-diabète, du diabète et des maladies cardiovasculaires associées au diabète. Les GG activent de récepteur PPAR et provoquent une diminution des facteurs de transcription de SREBP. Cette composition d'extrait de rocou contenant des GG, inhibe la croissance cancéreuse, que l'action des GG dans la prénylation protéique soit requise ou non.
