Abstract:
Proteinopathies result from the proteasome not acting efficiently enough to eliminate harmful proteins and prevent the formation of the pathogenic aggregates. As described herein, inhibition of proteasome-associated deubiquitinase Usp 14 results in increased proteasome efficiency. The present invention therefore provides novel compositions and methods for inhibition of Usp14, enhancement of proteasome activity and treatment of proteinopathies.
Abstract:
A piezo ceramic transformer working at a full wave length mode, &lgr;-mode, in accordance with the present invention has a driving region divided into two sections in the center and two generating regions at the end regions of a thin rectangular bar. Two input sections are built into multi-layered structure with multiple internal-electrodes and poled along the thickness direction with polarization in the neighboring layers opposite to each other. Alternating internal electrodes are connected in parallel through two external electrodes in each input section. Polarization in the same layer of two input sections are disposed in the same direction, and two external electrodes of two input sections in the same side of driving region are connected 180 degree out of phase to each other to a driving circuit. Two CCFLs are connected directly to two output electrodes at the end of the piezo ceramic transformer, respectively. Polarization in two output sections is along the length of the piezo ceramic plate, but the respective direction is in opposite way. Alternatively, polarization in the same layer of the two input sections are disposed in opposite direction, and two external electrodes of two input sections in the same side are connected in phase to each other to a driving circuit.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a telemedical stethoscope, which automatically diagnoses a disease, and records visually and auditorily, and stores the stethoscope data on a screen. The present invention enhances primary diagnosis and treatment effect for a patient by transmitting/receiving the data to/from a doctor at a medical center and by receiving a telemedicine service. In addition, the present invention transmits the data to a health management program so as to be used for personal healthcare and disease prognosis decision of a patient.
Abstract:
Provided is a Michael addition product prepared from a multifunctional acryl monomer having multiple hydroxyl groups allowing introduction of acryl functional groups, as a Michael acceptor, and a Michael donor. The Michael addition product is a novel multifunctional compound having an oligomer and a photoinitiator moiety in the molecule. Since it can be cured under a standard UV curing condition without having to add a photoinitiator, it is reduced to air pollution or health problem. Therefore the superior physical properties were obtained by cured coatings without surface tackiness. In addition, its hydroxyl groups allow, through isocyanate bonding or introduction of acryl groups, 3-dimensional crosslinking and molecular and compositional design for improving expandability, friction, and reactivity and hydrophilicity for self-adhesion, hardness of cured film, or the like. Consequently, a very useful, multifunctional or water-dispersible coating composition may be prepared.

Abstract:
There is provided a motor having an improved coupling structure between a circuit board and a base plate, and an optical disc drive using the same. The motor includes: a base plate; and a circuit board coupled to a surface of the base plate and having insulating layers formed on both surfaces thereof, wherein the insulating layers formed on both surfaces of the circuit board have different thicknesses. In particular, an insulating layer formed on one surface of the circuit board attached to the base plate may be thicker than an insulating layer formed on the other surface thereof.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a motor including a rotor body mounted on a shaft and a chucking mechanism body mounted on a rotor hub, which are coupled with an increased coupling force by changing a coupling structure of the rotor hub of the rotor body and the chucking mechanism body mounted on the rotor hub. The motor includes: a sleeve rotatably supporting a shaft; a rotor body having a rotor hub mounted on the shaft; and a chucking mechanism body having a boss with a through hole in which the rotor hub is insertedly coupled and a space part formed within the boss and providing an elastic force when the rotor hub is coupled. Because a force of restitution resulting from an elastic deformation of the boss provided in the chucking mechanism body can be increased through the space part, namely, because a pressing force applied to the rotor hub of the rotor body can be increased by the boss, the coupling force between the rotor hub of the rotor body and the boss of the chucking mechanism body can be increased and, in addition, the coupling force between the rotor hub of the rotor body and the boss of the chucking mechanism body can be further increased by the release preventing unit.
