    摘要: The photomultiplier includes a set of macrocells, each comprising at least two microcells, each being connected to an output node according to an OR diagram, and achieving great energy efficiency upon deactivating each of the microcells when these are activated almost simultaneously, and that otherwise would have been masked by the OR diagram. To this end, each of the microcells comprises an active quenching and recharge circuit; an avalanche diode; a first deactivation transistor with its gate connected to an external processor, and its drain and source associated with the active quenching and recharge circuit; a second deactivation transistor with its gate connected to an external processor, and its source associated with the active quenching and recharge circuit.

    摘要: An exoskeleton (1) having a plurality of autonomously operable modules (2RK, 2LK, 2RH, 2LH) each having a dedicated controller (23RK, 23LK, 23RH, 23LH) connected to an actuated joint. The exoskeleton (1) further having a multimaster electrical communicator (3) between the controllers (23RK, 23LK, 23RH, 23LH) of the modules (2RK, 2LK, 2RH, 2LH). The controller (23RK, 23LK, 23RH, 23LH) of each module (2RK, 2LK, 2RH, 2LH) is configured for: collecting information from sensors; sharing information with the remaining modules through the multimaster electrical communicator (3); determining which other modules (2RK, 2LK, 2RH, 2LH) are present; and autonomously calculating and commanding a desired trajectory of the actuated joint of the module (2RK, 2LK, 2RH, 2LH) for assisting the movement of the corresponding biological joint in coordination with the kinematic condition of other biological joints.

    摘要: The present invention provides an isolated peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1 needed for primase active as well as new replicative DNA polymerase enzymes, preferably that of SEQ ID NO: 2, comprising said peptide. Thus, these DNA polymerases are endowed with priming activity and do not require externally provided primers for initiating and performing DNA amplification. These polymerases are able to carry out a faithful and processive de novo DNA synthesis of DNA templates in the absence of pre-synthetized primers. Therefore, these enzymes of the invention act both as primases and DNA polymerases. Furthermore, they show translesion synthesis capacity, so that they may be useful not only for whole-genome amplification but also for the amplification of damaged DNAs. The invention further refers to methods for amplifying templates DNAs using these enzymes.
