摘要:
The present invention is a process to express a target peptide in a large amount and accumulate the target peptide in host cells in the form of inclusion bodies. The process comprises: A) culturing host cells transformed with a plasmid able to express a gene coding for a fusion protein represented in the formula A--L--B, wherein B is a target peptide, A is a protective peptide comprising a 90-210 amino acid fragment E. coli .beta.-galactosidase, and L is a linker peptide positioned between the C-terminus of the protective peptide and the N-terminus of the target peptide and selected so that when the fusion protein is treated by an enzyme or chemical substance, the target peptide is separated, and wherein the protective peptide and linker peptide are selected so that the isoelectric point of the fusion protein in between 4.9 and 6.9; B) obtaining an insoluble fraction comprising inclusion bodies by homogenization of th cultured transformed cells; C) solubilizing the fusion protein in the inclusion bodies by treatment of the insoluble fraction with a solubilizing agent; and, D) cleaving the peptide bond between the C-terminus of the linker peptide and the N-terminus of the target peptide of the solubilized fusion protein to release the target peptide from the other peptides followed by purification of the target peptide.

Kex2 protease derivatives obtained by transforming methanol-assimilating with expression vectors containing DNA coding for any amino acid sequence which is an amino acid sequence of Kex2 protease wherein the N-terminus is the Met at position 1 and the C-terminus is one of the amino acids between positions 618 (inclusive) and 698 (inclusive), or a modification of that amino acid sequence, culturing the resulting transformants and recovering the derivatives from the cultures, as well as gene systems coding for the derivatives and a method for producing the Kex2 protease derivatives using the gene systems. Also, a method for excision of desired peptides using the Kex2 protease derivatives.

A chimeric protein is provided which comprises a target protein and has been designed so as to be easily cleaved by a processing enzyme, permitting a target protein to be efficiently recovered. The chimeric protein is represented by the following formula:A-L-Bwherein A represents a protective peptide;B represents a target peptide; andL represents a linker peptide having the sequence X.sub.1 -X.sub.2 -(Pro, Lys, or Arg)-Arg, wherein X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 represent any amino acid, in its C-terminal region and a domain rich in His in its N-terminal region.

A medium processing apparatus for processing a medium ejected from an image forming apparatus includes a conveyor, a slit, a medium processing device, a stopper, and detectors. The conveyor conveys the medium ejected from the image forming apparatus. The slit communicates with an opening of a housing into which a medium is manually inserted from outside and includes a placement face on which the inserted medium is placed. The placement face has a first side and a second side orthogonal to the first side. The first and second sides are not parallel to a direction in which a side face of the housing extends. The medium processing device processes the medium conveyed by the conveyor or the medium placed on the slit. The stopper regulates edges of the medium along the first and second sides of the placement face. The detectors are disposed on the stopper to detect the medium.

A sheet processing apparatus includes: a second conveying roller pair that receives and conveys a sheet conveyed by a first conveying roller pair; a first folding roller pair that forms a first fold on the sheet; and a first rotation unit capable of rotating the second conveying roller pair and the first folding roller pair. One roller of the second conveying roller pair and one roller of the first folding roller pair are a common roller shared therebetween. The second conveying roller pair causes the sheet to be deflected and guided to the first folding roller pair, and the first folding roller pair forms the first fold on the deflected sheet by rotating the first rotation unit in a certain direction in a state in which the sheet is held by the first conveying roller pair and the second conveying roller pair.

A system with a container including a protrusion, and a receiver to receive the container. The receiver includes a slide block that is movable relative to a body of the receiver, the slide block including two surfaces, a first surface, initially contacted by the protrusion of the container during insertion of the container into the receiver, having a first slope to resist movement of the container towards the receiver, and a second surface, subsequently contacted by the protrusion of the container during the insertion of the container into the receiver, having a second slope to interact with the protrusion of the container to assist movement of the container towards the receiver. This construction provides the user with a changing insertion force to indicate proper mounting of the container.

摘要:
A new and distinct Loropetalum cultivar named ‘IRODORI’ is disclosed, characterized by bright pink, white, green and maroon variegated foliage, tall upright and spread habit and bright pink flowers with some flower re-bloom after the initial heavy Spring bloom. The new variety is a Loropetalum, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.
