摘要:
4-(Indol-3-ylmethyl)-4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate, which is useful as an intermediate in the synthesis of monatin, may be synthesized from indole pyruvic acid and pyruvic acid (and/or oxaloacetic acid) by using a novel aldolase derived from the genus Pseudomonas, Erwinia, Flavobacterium, or Xanthomonas.

A welded metal product includes a first metal plate having a first surface and a second surface opposed to the first surface; and a second metal plate being cold-pressure welded with the second surface of the first metal plate by directly pressing the first metal plate with the die. The first surface has a recess portion which is deformed by directly pressing with a die. A hardness of the first metal plate is greater than a hardness of the second metal plate.

A conductive path includes a terminal metal piece; and a bus bar overlapped with the terminal metal piece. The terminal piece and the bus bar are bonded while the terminal piece and the bus bar are deformed to form a recess portion on a surface where the terminal metal piece is overlapped with the bus bar by pressing the terminal metal piece and the bus bar with a die in a direction of intersecting with an overlapped face between the terminal metal piece and the bus bar.

A liquid crystal display device is provided with a pair of substrates which are arranged to face each other in an opposed manner and a liquid crystal layer which is sandwiched between main surfaces of a pair of substrates. On the main surface of one of the pair of substrates which faces the liquid crystal layer, pixel regions including switching elements, pixel electrodes which are connected to the switching elements and a protective film which is disposed at liquid crystal layer side of the switching elements are formed. In such a liquid crystal device, the protective film is formed by laminating the plurality of material layers which include at least a first material layer and a second material layer which is arranged closer to the liquid crystal layer side than the first material layer. Further, the second material layer exhibits resistivity which is lower than resistivity of the first material layer and higher than resistivity of silicon or semiconductor layers which constitute channels of the switching elements. Due to such a constitution, the image retention which is generated on a display screen of the liquid crystal display device can be reduced.

The object of the present invention is to prepare a recombinant DNA efficiently co-expressing genes of enzymes such as HHase, and to produce an amino acid efficiently from hydantoin by utilizing such a recombinant DNA. The present invention provides a recombinant DNA having base sequences encoding the following gene regions (I) and (II) incorporated therein in a predetermined direction and in a predetermined order to produce an amino acid efficiently: (I) a gene region containing a base sequence encoding a hydantoinase gene and a trp promoter sequence located upstream of the base sequence encoding the hydantoinase gene regulating expression of the hydantoinase gene, and (II) a gene region containing a base sequence encoding a carbamylase gene and a trp promoter sequence located upstream of the base sequence encoding the carbamylase gene regulating expression of the carbamylase gene.

A connector structure includes a connector body having a hollow portion and an axis. The connector body includes a male terminal extending along the direction of the axis of the hollow portion. The connector body includes a sacrificial electrode mounted either on part of the connector body or on the male terminal. The tip of the sacrificial electrode extends outwardly farther than the male terminal tip along the axis. The connector structure includes a female terminal to be fitted along the axis. The female terminal includes a first sacrificial fold and a second sacrificial fold separated by an electrode path extending along the axis of the hollow portion, such that the sacrificial electrode is positioned between the first and second sacrificial folds before the female terminal has been fitted with the male terminal. With such a construction, the connector structure can be miniaturized and simplified, and durably protected from the damage caused by an electric arc discharge.

A C-shaped fixed core is provided at a power receiving portion, and a secondary coil is wound on a vertical portion of the fixed core. A moving core is vertically movable in sliding contact with distal end surfaces of horizontal portions of the fixed core. A primary coil, having an air core portion, is provided at a charging coupler. When the charging coupler is attached to the power receiving portion, the moving core is moved downward to extend through the air core portion of the primary coil, and opposite end portions of the moving core are contacted respectively with the horizontal portions of the fixed core. As a result, a magnetic circuit is formed between the primary and secondary coils. The charging coupler is lightweight since it does not have a core.

A connector for charging includes: a power supply connector element having a primary coil to be connected to a charging power source and a first core; and a vehicle connector element having a secondary coil to be connected to a battery mounted on a vehicle and a second core, the first and second cores constituting a magnetic circuit which passes through the primary and secondary coils, thereby allowing the battery to be charged by an electromotive power induced in the secondary coil, wherein a region occupied by one of the first and second cores is smaller than a region occupied by the other of the first and second cores.
