Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel method of producing 3-hydroxypropionic acid from glycerol, and more particularly to a method of producing 3-hydroxypropionic acid by culturing in a glycerol-containing medium a mutant microorganism obtained by amplifying an aldehyde dehydrogenase-encoding gene in a microorganism having the abilities to produce coenzyme B12 and produce 3-hydroxypropionic acid using glycerol as a carbon source. The present invention enables the fermentation of glycerol even under microaerobic or aerobic conditions without having to add coenzyme B12. Thus, the invention will be very suitable for the development of biological processes for producing large amounts of 3-hydroxypropionic acid.

Abstract:
An LCD device and a method for fabricating the same is described, in which each of light-shielding patterns has the uniform thickness to prevent the step coverage from being generated in color filter patterns by the light-shielding patterns. The LCD device includes a substrate with pixel and light shielding regions defined, a transparent material layer formed on the substrate corresponding to the pixel regions, a light-shielding layer formed on the substrate corresponding to the light shielding regions, and a color filter layer on the transparent material layer.

Abstract:
Discussed are a roll mold, a method for fabricating the same and a method for fabricating a thin film pattern using the same, to prevent dimensional variation of the mold and simplify the overall process. The method for fabricating a roll mold includes providing a substrate provided with a master pattern layer, sequentially forming a mold surface layer and a solid suffer layer on the substrate provided with the master pattern layer to provide a flat panel mold, forming an adhesive resin layer on the base roller aligned on the flat panel mold, and rolling the base roller provided with the adhesive resin layer over the flat panel mold to adhere the flat panel mold to the base roller through the adhesive resin layer.
Abstract:
A display device includes a display panel having an active area in which sub-pixels formed at crossing regions of data lines extending in a first direction and gate lines extending in a second direction crossing the first direction are arranged, and a non-active area outside of the active area. A driver supplies a drive signal to the gate and data lines in the display panel. Data links are extended in the first direction from the driver to supply a data signal to the data lines. Gate links are extended out from the driver and extended up to the active area in the first direction from the non-active area between the driver and the active area so as to supply a gate signal to the gate lines extending in the second direction. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce or minimize the area of the non-active area and/or to improve an aperture ratio.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (LCD) device is disclosed. In the device an R or B pixel is driven and then a G or W pixel is driven, so that the polarity of the pixels is inversed every two data lines. Thus, problems, such as flicker and a non-uniform picture quality are reduced.
