摘要:
Provided is an isolated phytase derived from a microorganism. The microorganism is preferably from the genus Monascus. The phytase has a Michaelis constant of 10 to 110 &mgr;M when phytic acid is used as a substrate. A process for producing the phytase is also provided as is an animal feed comprising the phytase. The phytase is preferably isolated from Monascus anka IFO 30873. The phytase has a Km of 107 &mgr;m when phytic acid is used as a substrate, the optimum pH is 2.5, the optimum temperature is 45° C., the molecular weight of the phytase is 140 kDa when measured by gel filtration, and the isolectric point is 5.2 using chromatofocusing.

Provided are P112 protein and P31 protein which proteins are among proteins constituting human 26S proteasome, DNAs encoding the proteins, vectors into which the DNAs are inserted and cells carrying the vectors. The proteins of the present invention are useful not only for elucidating the function of the human 26S proteasome but also for the diagnosis or therapy of various diseases.
摘要:
An Object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing a nerve cell by inducing differentiation of an embryonic stem cell, a method for inducing differentiation of the embryonic stem cell into a nerve cell, a medium to be used in the production process or differentiation induction method, or a method for improving purity of the nerve cell obtained by inducing differentiation of the embryonic stem cell. The present invention provides a process for producing a nerve cell which is applicable to treatment of neurodegenerative disease or the like easily, selectively or inexpensively by inducing differentiation induction of an embryonic stem cell using vitamin B12 or a salt thereof and heparin, a substance having heparin-like activity or a salt.
摘要:
A game apparatus includes an LCD, and a game screen is displayed on the LCD. A touch panel is provided on the LCD. The game screen presents a marker image so as to be variable in position in time with performance of music, and also presents a timer circle image for indicating touch timing for the marker image. A player needs to touch a marker image to be touched with precise timing, listening to the music or watching the timer circle image. The player's touch is evaluated on the basis of the touch timing and the touch position. If the touch is evaluated as a failure, the game screen is shaken.

An oxyntomodulin peptide has cardiotonic activity and insulin release-promoting activity. The peptide or pharmaceutical salts thereof can be used for prevention or treatment of cardiopathy or diabetes.
摘要:
Disclosed is a bump formed on a pad which is provided on either a semiconductor chip or a package or a wiring substrate for input or output thereof, for making electric connection on the pad. The bump has: a projection projecting from the pad; a ball having conductivity and located above the pad; and a conductive bonding material for bonding the pad for and the ball, wherein creep strength of the ball is larger than strength of the conductive bonding material. With another conductive bonding material provided on the other pad of a wiring substrate or a package, the ball of the bump of the semiconductor chip or the package is placed close to another pad of the wiring substrate or package. The conductive bonding material of the other pad is heated and melted to connect the ball and the other pad of the wiring substrate or package by the conductive bonding material.
摘要:
A semiconductor ceramic multilayer package comprising an aluminum nitride substrate having a semiconductor element mounted on one surface thereof and a wiring pattern electrically connected to the semiconductor element, connecting terminals connected to the wiring pattern and disposed on the other surface of the aluminum nitride substrate, and a sealing member connected to the aluminum nitride substrate with a metallic bonding layer or a glass layer having a thickness of not more than 100 .mu.m in such a manner as to seal the semiconductor element possesses a notably improved heat-radiating property and accomplishes the object of increasing the number of pins and reducing the size of package.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a desired polypeptide using rat cells. Specifically, the present invention relates to a process for producing the polypeptide which comprises culturing rat cells such as YB2/3HL.P2.G11.16Ag.20 (hereinafter referred to as YB2/0), preferably rat cells to which a recombinant DNA comprising DNA encoding a desired polypeptide such as an immunologically functional molecule is introduced, in a medium which does not contain serum (hereinafter referred to as a serum-free medium). Among the desired polypeptides obtained by the process of the present invention, an antibody obtained by using a transformant of YB2/0 has a high antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxic activity (hereinafter sometimes referred to as ADCC activity) and is useful as a pharmaceutical agent.
摘要:
A system for interacting with an application via a user interface is provided. A user is prompted to perform a looped motion such as an exercise move or dance move depicted by the application. User motion data is received from one or more sensors connected to a computing device executing the application. The user's progress of performing a sequence of a looped motion is determined based on the user motion data. In one embodiment, a user may perform one or more looped motions by choosing from multiple looped motions depicted by the application. In another embodiment, a user may perform looped motions at different skill levels based on a skill level determined for the user. In one embodiment, the looped motions performed by the user are displayed to the user, in an order of the looped motions performed by the user, via the user interface.
