    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for identifying a physiologically active protein translated from an ORF other than mORF present on mRNA.The object can be solved by a method for identifying a physiologically active protein, wherein an ORF which encodes a protein having a physiological activity, other than a main open reading frame (ORF) is identified in eukaryotic mRNA, comprising the steps of: (1) introducing an expression vector incorporating a candidate ORF to cells, and culturing the introduced cells, (2) detecting a protein bound to a candidate protein by immunoprecipitating the candidate protein translated from the candidate ORF, from the cultured cells, (3) determining a candidate protein in which another protein bound to the candidate protein is detected as a physiologically active protein.

    Abstract: An optical deflection device that achieve both high beam quality and wide angular range of deflection and compatibility with an optical integration technology of silicon photonics. The optical deflection device is a silicon photonics device including a periodic structure of a refractive index. The optical deflection device includes two configurations, which are (1) a configuration in which an optical propagation part where light propagates is a microstructure formed on silicon, and (2) a configuration in which the microstructure constituting the optical propagation part includes a periodic structure that generates slow light and a periodic structure that radiates light. The microstructure formed on the silicon of (1) makes it possible to employ the optical integration technology of silicon photonics and form the optical deflection device. The two periodic structures of (2) make it possible to form a light beam with high beam quality and a wide angular range of deflection.

    Abstract: A catalyst is provided which is used for continuously synthesizing ammonia using a gas containing hydrogen and nitrogen as a raw material, wherein a transition metal which exhibits catalytic activity is supported by a support, and the support is a two-dimensional electride or a precursor thereof. The two-dimensional electride or the precursor thereof is a metal nitride represented by MxNyHz (M represents one or two or more of Group II metals selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba, and x, y and z are in ranges of 1≤x≤11, 1≤y≤8, and 0≤z≤4 respectively, in which x is an integer, and y and z are not limited to an integer) or M3N2 (M is the same as above), or a metal carbide selected from the group consisting of Y2C, Sc2C, Gd2C, Tb2C, Dy2C, Ho2C and Er2C. These catalysts are used for continuously reacting nitrogen with hydrogen, which are raw materials, on the catalyst, wherein the reaction is performed in an ammonia synthesis reaction system under the preferable conditions of a reaction temperature which is equal to or higher than 100° C. and equal to or lower than 600° C., and a reaction pressure which is equal to or higher than 10 kPa and lower than 20 MPa.
