Abstract: Techniques for signaling extended sizes for Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (MPDU), Aggregated MPDU (A-MPDU) and Aggregated MAC Service Data Unit (A-MSDU) frame formats. A first technique proposes modifications to the current specifications of the IEEE 802.11? standard in order to allow for longer MPDUs in an A-MPDU. This technique reuses the IEEE 802.11? signaling format and utilizes reserved bits to convey the new information, i.e. an indication that the maximum length of a MAC RDU, MPDU frame, of an A-MRDU, or ofan A-MSDU is respectively greater than 4095 bytes. 64 kilobytes and 7935 bytes. The second technique proposes a new signaling mechanism to convey the extended sizes for the MPDU, A-MPDU and the A-MSDU through a very high throughput (VHT) capability element. One or more bits may be added to the delimiter field.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an efficient production method of xylitol by using the xylitol producing microorganism introduced with arabinose metabolic pathway to inhibit the production of arabitol, the byproduct, and instead to use arabinose only for cell metabolism in xylose/arabinose mixed medium. More precisely, to express efficiently L-arabinose isomerase (araA), L-ribulokinase (araB) and L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase (araD) in Candida tropicalis, codon optimization was performed. Then, each gene was inserted in the gene expression cassette containing the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter and the selection marker URA3, which was introduced into Candida sp. microorganism.  As a result, arabitol, the byproduct interrupting the purification and crystallization of xylitol could be inhibited, making the production method of xylitol of the present invention more efficient. The xylitol producing microorganism introduced with arabinose metabolic pathway of the present invention can be effectively used for the production of xylitol with high productivity by inhibiting the generation of arabitol.
