A phased antenna array is disclosed. The phased antenna array is composed of one or more modules and has a plurality of antenna. The array has a plurality of antenna configured to operate as an array and each module has at least one antenna. The modules have a substrate that supports the antenna, a microelectronic device for sending signals to or receiving signals from said antenna and conductive traces that connect that antenna to the microelectronic device. In those embodiments where the phased antenna array has more than one module, a common substrate supports the one or more modules. A combination of circuitry and interconnects achieves the desired electrical interconnection between the modules.

A method of detecting a ligase expressing micro-organism in a sample comprises steps of treating the sample under conditions that inhibit the activity of ATP-dependent ligase from mammalian cells but which do not inhibit the activity of the microbial ligases, contacting the sample or a portion of the sample with a nucleic acid molecule which acts as a substrate for ligase activity in the sample, incubating the thus contacted sample under conditions suitable for ligase activity; and specifically determining the presence and/or the amount of a ligated nucleic acid molecule resulting from the action of the ligase on the substrate nucleic acid molecule to indicate the presence of the ligase expressing micro-organism. The micro-organism may be a fungus or a bacterium or both. High pH conditions may be employed to inactivate mammalian ligases. Related kits are described.

NAD-dependent ligase is identified as an indicator of micro-organisms in a sample. A method of detecting the presence of an NAD-dependent ligase expressing micro-organism in a sample comprises the steps of: (a) contacting the sample with a nucleic acid molecule which acts as a substrate for NAD-dependent ligase activity in the sample, (b) incubating the thus contacted sample under conditions suitable for NAD-dependent ligase activity; and (c) specifically determining the presence of a ligated nucleic acid molecule resulting from the action of the NAD-dependent ligase on the substrate nucleic acid molecule to indicate the presence of the NAD-dependent ligase expressing micro-organism. The method has a number of applications and kits for carrying out the methods are also provided. Lysostaphin preparations substantially free from nuclease and/or ligase contaminants are produced by heating a lysostaphin preparation which contains nuclease and/or ligase contaminants under conditions whereby nuclease and/or ligase activity is reduced whereas endopeptidase activity of the lysostaphin is substantially unaffected.

Infective aggregating forms of proteins such as PrP, amyloid, and tau are bound selectively in the presence of the normal form protein using a polyionic binding agent such as dextran sulphate or pentosan (anionic), or polyamine compounds such as pDADMAC (cationic) under selective binding conditions including the use of n-lauroylsarcosine at mildly alkaline pH, and may then be assayed.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein R2 is 2-hydroxymethylpyrrolidin-1-yl, or NHCH(R4)CH(R3)OH, wherein R3 is hydrogen or methyl and R4 is methyl, ethyl or isopropyl; R6 is 3-nitrophenylamino, 3,4-dimethoxybenzylamino, 3-iodobenzyl-amino, pyrid-2-yl-methylamino, pyrid-4-yl-methylamino or indan-5-amino; R9 is isopropyl or cyclopentanyl. In a further aspect, the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, and the use thereof in treating antiproliferative disorders and or viral disorders.
摘要:
Kits and devices for performing a method of detecting a molecule associated with viability of one or more cells or organisms in a sample are provided. The method comprises the initial step of contacting the sample with an enzyme, which enzyme is capable of adding or removing a chemical moiety to or from a nucleic acid molecule in the presence of the molecule associated with viability of the one or more cells or organisms. This thereby generates a novel detectable nucleic acid molecule. The next step involves detecting the presence of the molecule associated with viability of the one or more cells or organisms by detecting the novel nucleic acid molecule generated only in the presence of the molecule associated with viability of the one or more cells or organisms. A most preferred molecule associated with viability is ATP, although NAD may also be detected. A preferred enzyme for use in the methods is ligase. The kits and devices for performing the method have numerous applications, in particular in monitoring viability of cells, toxicology testing and determining whether there is contamination in a sample or on a surface.

A method for constructing prefabricated modular building panels includes providing a plurality of full wall height panels in several widths and full wall height corner elements which can be assembled to provide walls for a building of almost any size. The method also includes providing less than full height header and sill panels in several widths which can be used to install windows and doors. A window is installed between a header and sill panel having a width which is greater than the width of the window by placing studs between the header and sill panels at each side of the window and at each side of the header and sill panels. A door is installed under a header panel having a width which is greater than the width of the door by building a frame on each side of the door below the header panel. The panels are made with a frame of interconnected steel studs and steel top and bottom tracks. Pieces of structural building material are rigidly attached to the tracks and project from the front edges of the track by a predetermined distance. Strips of insulating material attached to the front edges of the studs have a thickness substantially equal to this first predetermined distance.
