摘要:
The present invention provides novel polynucleotides encoding Drosophila DmTNF polypeptides, fragments and homologs thereof. The present invention also is directed to novel polynucleotides encoding two Drosophila DmTNF variants, DmTNFv1 and DmTNFv2 polypeptides, fragments and homologs thereof. Also provided are vectors, host cells, antibodies, and recombinant and synthetic methods for producing said polypeptides. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of the polynucleotides and polypeptides of the present invention, in addition to methods of genetically modifying Drosophila or cultured cells to express or mis-express DmTNF, DmTNFv1, or DmTNFv2. The invention also relates to the use of such modified insects or cells to characterize DmTNF activity, identify TNF-like genes and/or genes implicated in modulating TNF, characterize TNF signaling pathways, and/or to identify modulators of DmTNF activity.

A media handling device comprises a frame, a media tray, and a damper. The media tray is mountable to the frame for pivotal movement between a first position and a second position relative to the frame. The damper is disposed on the frame and configured for maintaining frictional engagement with the media tray.

A print cartridge support system for locating a print cartridge in a printer includes a cartridge docking bay and a latch mechanism. The cartridge docking bay is configured to removably receive the print cartridge. The latch mechanism includes a body and a retainer. The body is movably supported relative to the bay for movement between a closed position and an open position. The retainer is movably coupled to the body to move between a retaining position in which the retainer releasably engages the bay when the body is in the closed position and a releasing position.

The present invention provides anti-human ICOS antibodies with increased effector function. The invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions, immunotherapeutic compositions, and methods using therapeutic antibodies that bind to the human ICOS antigen and that may mediate ADCC, CDC, and/or antibody-dependent phagocytosis (opsonisation) for the treatment and prevention of T cell-mediated diseases and disorders, such as, but not limited to, chronic infection, autoimmune disease or disorder, inflammatory disease or disorder, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), transplant rejection, and T cell proliferative disorder.
摘要:
A tool holder formed from two or more layers of material is provided. Cutouts or pockets may be formed in the tool holder corresponding with specific types and sizes of tools. An identification for each tool may be provided on the tool holder adjacent to each cutout. The identification remains visible to a reader when an associated tool is placed in each respective cutout.
摘要:
A refrigerator having a forward projecting dispenser that extends forward a front panel of the door. The door has an outer door pan with an outer door cavity and an inner liner having an inner liner cavity. An ice chute may be placed through both the inner liner cavity and the outer door cavity to move ice to the forward projecting dispenser. The dispenser may have a housing that positions a control panel and water outlet forward the front panel. The dispenser may extend to the door handle of the refrigerator or beyond the handle. The distance the dispenser extends forward the front panel of the door is minimized using a slight diagonal rear side of the dispenser housing.
