摘要:
A method is selects membrane-translocating peptides (MTPs) from a peptide display library that are capable of crossing or penetrating a lipid membrane. A plurality of nucleic acid constructs that encode displayed peptides are expressed, resulting in the formation of a plurality of nucleic acid-peptide complexes, each complex comprising at least one displayed peptide associated with the corresponding nucleic acid construct encoding the displayed peptide; the complexes are exposed to a population of membrane-encapsulated compartments, allowing a translocating reaction to occur; complexes that remain unassociated with the membrane are removed; optionally complexes that are associated with the membrane are removed; and internalized nucleic acid-peptide complexes are recovered. The membrane-encapsulated compartments may be artificial vesicles such as liposomes, or populations of one or more cell types.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for making in vitro peptide expression libraries, and for the isolation of nucleotide sequences encoding peptides of interest, wherein the peptides or proteins are specifically associated with the DNA encoding them through non-covalent protein:DNA binding. The method describes ways of making the library itself, DNA molecules encoding the library and uses of the expression library.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for auto-configuring a wavelength selective switch (WSS) device having an output port and a plurality of input ports and coupled to a WSS controller. When connected to a WDM optical network, the WSS controller is programmed to utilize one or more optical channel monitors (OCM) coupled to the input and/or output ports to detect which of the wavelengths are present at the input ports. Wavelengths that are not detected on any input port are blocked by the WSS. Any wavelength detected as present at one and only one input port is switched by the WSS to the output port. If a wavelength is detected at two or more input ports, it is either blocked by the WSS at each of the input ports until user intervention, or is blocked at all but one of the input ports as defined by assigned port priorities.
摘要:
An apparatus includes a light source configured to provide a path of light and a spatial light modulator located in the path of light and configured to modulate the light source. Relay optics are configured to receive the modulated light from the spatial light modulator and to project a computer generated image to a nominal image plane. The light source is configured to illuminate the spatial light modulator with collimated light.
