摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for detecting an antibody against a small protein encoded by the intermediate stage transcript of HHV-6 (SITH-1) in a biological sample. The method of the present invention includes the following steps: 1) providing the SITH-1 protein; 2) binding the SITH-1 protein provided in step 1) to a carrier; and 3) contacting the biological sample with the SITH-1 protein-bound carrier prepared in step 2) to detect the SITH-1 protein antibody.

It is intended to provide a virus vector by which an exogenous nucleotide sequence can be inserted and easily transferred into a mammalian host cell and a gene encoded by the exogenous nucleotide sequence can be expressed in the host cell, and which has a low risk of pathogenicity and is appropriately usable in gene therapy of mammals. Namely, a recombinant vector originating in HHV-6 which has an exogenous nucleotide sequence in a portion corresponding to at least one region selected from the group consisting of U2, U3, U4, U5, U6, U7, U8, U24, and U25 regions of HHV-6; or a recombinant vector originating in HHV-7 which has an exogenous nucleotide sequence in a portion corresponding to at least one region selected from the group consisting of U2, U3, U4, U7, U8, U24, U24a, and U25 regions of HHV-7.

A display control program is proposed which displays data already stored in a memory on a display unit if an empty capacity of the memory is insufficient for an amount of write data to be written in the memory; displays an operator on the display unit in a first color, the operator being capable of moving by a user operation and being used for selecting data to be overwritten with the write data from the data displayed on the display unit; displays a gage on the display unit and display in a second color a range in the gage corresponding to an insufficient capacity for writing the write data in the memory; and displays a range in the gage corresponding to an empty capacity to be formed by deleting the data selected with the operator, in the first color same as a color of the operator.

In the case where a first semiconductor chip and a second semiconductor chip are stacked, both the semiconductor chips are connected using micro bumps, such that a circuit block in the first semiconductor chip and a circuit block in the second semiconductor chip are connected by the micro bumps, and the circuit block in the second semiconductor chip is also connected to the external electrode by the micro bumps through the first semiconductor chip. Further, the micro bumps that connect circuit blocks of both the semiconductor chips and the micro bumps that connect the circuit block in one chip to an external electrode are arranged in different positions.

It is an object to provide a method in which a lignocellulosic material is treated with a phenol derivative and acid, whereby a lignophenol derivative can be recovered, and moreover sugar from an acid/sugar solution obtained at the same time can be recovered and used easily and efficiently. One form of the present invention relates to a method of separating and recovering an acid/sugar solution and a lignophenol derivative, comprising putting a reaction mixture of a lignocellulosic material, a phenol derivative and an acid into an amount of water 0.5 to 6 times the amount of the mixture as a volume ratio, and leaving the mixture to stand or maintaining the mixture in a weakly agitated state, so as to agglomerate a lignophenol derivative produced as a solid phase, and then carrying out solid-liquid separation, so as to separate and recover the lignophenol derivative as the solid phase and an acid/sugar mixture as a liquid phase.
摘要:
A hydrothermal reaction is performed on an aqueous medium without adding an oxidizing agent, and then another hydrothermal reaction is performed in the presence of an oxidizing agent, thereby reducing a chemical oxygen demand of the aqueous medium. An apparatus for performing a hydrothermal reaction has a fluid inlet being capable of introducing an oxidizing agent in a fluid form during a hydrothermal reaction.

A mobile terminal device includes a display section having a display screen, an input section having a touch input region on the display screen, and a control section for displaying a plurality of keys. The display screen is provided as a software keyboard where a touch operation on a specific key causes an input of the specific key. In the specific display region on the display screen that can display operation keys on the software keyboard, the control section selects these keys from a previously prepared set of input candidate key groups. In response to a specific operation on the specific display region, the control section allows the plurality of keys to be displayed on the specific display region. In response to touch on a desired key in the specific display region, the control section determines that an input of the key has been performed.

The present invention provides a method for detecting a substance in a biological sample, a carrier for using in the method, and a kit. The method of the present invention includes 1) providing a carrier on which a biotin-binding protein is bound and providing a biotinylated protein by biotinylating a protein that specifically binds to a substance to be detected; 2) binding the biotinylated protein to the carrier provided in step 1) to produce a biotinylated protein-bound carrier; 3) mixing (a) a biological sample, and (b-i) a cell homogenate extract prepared from cells of the same species as that of the host cells used for expressing, for example, the biotin-binding protein in step 1), and a biotin-binding protein, or (b-ii) a cell homogenate extract prepared from cells of the same species as that of the host cells used for expressing, for example, the biotin-binding protein in step 1) and genetically engineered to express a biotin-binding protein, and adding the mixture to the biotinylated protein-bound carrier produced in step 2); and 4) detecting the substance specifically bound to the biotinylated protein.

Disclosed are a protein and a gene each of which is a factor involved in latent infection with a herpesvirus. An antibody against the factor was detected in approximately 50% of patients suffering from mental disorders, whereas the antibody was hardly detected in healthy persons. Further, a mouse having SITH-1 introduced therein developed a mental disorder such as a manic-depressive illness or depression-like disorder. Based on these findings, it is possible to provide a method for objectively determining a mental disorder and an animal model of a mental disorder.
