摘要:
The present invention provides novel peptides of specified sequence and their use as a signal peptide or a membrane-anchoring peptide. It also relates to chimeric polypeptide comprising one or more such peptides and a polypeptide of interest as well as nucleic acid molecules, vectors, infections vital particles and host cells encoding such peptides and chimeric polypeptides. The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising such elements and a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle. The present invention also provides a method for recumbently producing a polypeptide using such peptides, especially for directing expression of a polypeptide of interest extracellularly or anchored at the surface of the plasma membrane.

An apparatus and method for self-checkout of non-bar coded items is provided. The apparatus includes a PLU entry device, a PLU database and a processing unit. The PLU entry device includes a display and a GUI. The GUI provides on the display a predetermined image corresponding to a non-bar coded item, and means for the user to select the predetermined image of the non-bar coded item. The PLU entry device supplies a PLU corresponding to the non-bar coded item selected by the user. The processing unit uses the PLU supplied by the PLU entry device to retrieve a price of the selected non-bar coded item from the PLU database. A GUI editor may also be provided for configuring the GUI for non-bar coded items. The processing unit may maintain for each item a count of the number of units of the item sold within a predetermined period of time. The processing unit also may maintain a list of most frequently sold items. The image of at least one item on the list is provided on a selected display screen. The processing unit may update the display screen when the list of most frequently sold items changes. An image of a generic category of items may be provided on the display. The displayed image of the generic category is selected by the user to view images of respective items in the generic category.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a system for producing a protein of interest in a host cell comprising the combined use of two expression cassettes, one of which is for expressing a useful DNA fragment controlled by a thiamine-regulable promoter region, while the other is for expression an activator gene. The present invention also concerns expression cassettes comprising a useful DNA fragment controlled by a promoter region derived from the Schizosaccharomyces pombe pho-4 gene, as well as the vectors and cells comprising such an expression cassette. A novel method for the production of a useful protein is also provided.

A customer self-checkout system includes one or more checkout stations and multiple supervisor terminals. The supervisor terminals provide support to, and control over, the self-checkout system and checkout stations. The supervisory terminals may be wireless terminals that can capture self-checkout customer identification information including signatures, fingerprints, images, and other forms of identification.
摘要:
A flight control system for a helicopter having a main rotor and a tail rotor is provided. The flight control system includes an automatic rotor speed control being configured to transition the main rotor and the tail rotor between a high speed and a low speed based upon a plurality of received information without requiring any pilot action, the plurality of received information comprising height above ground level, knot indicated air speed, outside air temperature, barometric altitude, pressure altitude, density altitude, and an engine operational status.
摘要:
The present invention provides a reagent for the detection or monitoring of a Toxoplasma gondii infection, which includes as a reactive substance a truncated Toxoplasma gondii P30 protein in which all of the hydrophobic C-terminal region of the native protein starting with the amino acid positioned after the amino acid 299 (SEQ ID NO: 1) has been deleted and all of the region of the native protein having the sequence starting with amino acid 31 and ending with the amino acid 299 (SEQ ID NO: 1) is contained. The present invention further describes methods of screening for anti-Toxoplasma antibodies in a biological sample.

摘要:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a system, device and method for collecting, processing, correcting and employing positional vehicle data broadcast by aircraft and/or other vehicles to improve airport and related vehicle operations and tracking. In various embodiments, an IOT sensor subsystem comprising a detection unit is secured at or near an airport and includes one or more antennae, one or more sensors and a processing unit for analyzing the data and producing beneficial output.
摘要:
The subject of the present invention is a DNA fragment which encodes a protein capable of being recognised by an antiserum against the transferrin receptor of the strain IM2394 or IM2169 of N. meningitidis as well as a process for producing the said protein by a recombinant route. By way of example, such a DNA fragment encodes the tbp1 subunit of the strain IM2394 or IM2169 or the tbp2 subunit of the strain IM2394 or IM2169.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for obtaining expression of a mixed hepatitis B surface antigen particle, e.g., a particle of mixed polypeptide composition, in yeast. Also disclosed is a method for obtaining multimeric structures presenting two or more polypeptides by expression in yeast as fusion proteins with the S antigen of HBsAg.
摘要:
A method and computer program enable the electronic capture and archiving of portions of printed publications for electronic searching and retrieval via a computer network. Employment-related sections of a plurality of printed publications are scanned to create a master digital image for each publication. Each master image is surveyed by an operator to identify locations of individual articles and advertisements contained in the image. A plurality of specific images are created from each master image, wherein each specific image contains a single article or advertisement. An operator defines a category, subcategory, and geographic location of each specific image, and each image is processed by optical character recognition software to determine text contained in the image. An end user searches the articles and advertisements according to category, subcategory, geographic location, and text, and views each specific image matching the user's search.
