Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for identifying the plurality of aptamers that bind to different sites of a target molecule and methods for using the same, for example, in sandwich assays. In particular, the plurality of aptamers binding to different sites of the target molecules is identified from a library of aptamers identified from the same SELEX process.
Abstract:
Improved G-rich oligonucleotide (GRO) aptamers specific to nucleolin, a method of preparing the aptamers, and a use of the aptamers for diagnosing and/or treating a nucleolin-associated disease, are provided.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device comprises a memory cell array including a number of bit lines commonly coupled to a source line and each coupled to a number of memory cells, a delay unit configured to delay a sense signal in response to a voltage level of the source line and to output a delayed sense signal, and a page buffer unit configured to sense voltage levels of the bit lines in response to the delayed sense signal.
Abstract:
Access to non-volatile memory is controlled when a first data segment is loaded in the non-volatile memory from a hard disk, a weight is calculated for the first data segment stored in the non-volatile memory based on at least one of the access frequency, the access recency, and the size of the first data segment, and the calculated weight is stored in a weight table. A removal rank is calculated for the first data segment based on at least one weight stored in the weight table, a determination is made as to whether a storage capacity of the non-volatile memory is utilized above a predetermined threshold, and a data segment is removed from the non-volatile memory based on a removal rank associated with the data segment.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a power control apparatus and method for preventing a system from being repeatedly booted and shut off by re-setting a cut-off voltage when the system is shut down by a cutoff mode. The power control apparatus of a terminal device according to the present invention comprises a power controller 30 for controlling power supplied from a battery 10 to the terminal device; and a memory 60 for storing a cutoff voltage value for shutting down a system if a voltage of the battery 10 is lower than a reference value, wherein the power controller 30 sets a flag when the system is shut down by a cutoff mode. When the system is rebooted, it is determined whether to drive the system based on an additional cutoff voltage, if the flag is set. According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the system from being shut down by the cutoff mode after it has been driven. Therefore, there is an advantage in that the life span of the battery can be extended and the charging time of the battery can be saved.
Abstract:
A method of operating a nonvolatile memory device includes performing a first program operation and a first verification operation on memory cells until a cell, having a threshold voltage higher than a first reference voltage, occurs and, when a cell having the threshold voltage higher than the first reference voltage occurs, performing a second program operation and performing a second verification operation using a second reference voltage higher than the first reference voltage.
Abstract:
Provided is a user instruction input device operating in a three-dimensional space. The user instruction input device includes a first sensor that senses the angular rate of the device centering on at least one axis, a second sensor that senses the acceleration of the device at least for one direction, and a processing unit that calculates a first rotation angle in a coordinate system independent of the attitude of the first device from the output value of the first sensor, calculates a second rotation angle in the coordinate system from the output value of the second sensor, and calculates the final attitude angle by combining the first rotation angle and the second rotation angle.
