A system for isolating mRNAs as cDNAs employs a polymerase amplification method using at least two oligodeoxynucleotide primers. In one approach, the first primer contains sequence capable of hybridizing to a site immediately upstream of the first A ribonucleotide of the mRNA's polyA tail and the second primer contains arbitrary sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains sequence capable of hybridizing to a site including the mRNA's polyA signal sequence and the second primer contains arbitrary sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains arbitrary sequence and the second primer contains sequence capable of hybridizing to a site including the Kozak sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains a sequence that is substantially complementary to the sequence of a mRNA having a known sequence and the second primer contains arbitrary sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains arbitrary sequence and the second primer contains sequence that is substantially identical to the sequence of a mRNA having a known sequence. The first primer is used as a primer for reverse transcription of the MRNA and the resultant cDNA is amplified with a polymerase using both the first and second primers as a primer set.

A vehicle central lock antitheft method and system includes a central lock system which is connected by radio with a remote controller for identity verification using rolling codes (S101, S102), wherein the central lock system chooses a security state (S103) and transmits the security state to an engine management system according to the verification result, the ignition IG status and the door switch status signal indicating opening or closing of the door (S104). The engine management system receives the security state transmitted by the central lock system and verifies the identity of the central lock system by code matching (S106); security identification between the engine management system and the central lock system is carried out by bidirectional encryption communication (S107). The engine management system then decides whether or not to lock the engine according to the result of the security identification.

摘要:
Methods and compositions for producing secreted soluble receptors and biologically active polypeptides in trimeric forms are disclosed. The process involves fusing the DNA template encoding a soluble receptor with a ligand binding domain or biologically active polypeptide to a DNA sequence encoding a C-propeptide of collagen, which is capable of self-assembly into a covalently linked trimer. The resulting fusion proteins are secreted as trimeric soluble receptor analogs, which can be used for more efficient neutralization of the biological activities of their naturally occurring trimeric ligands.
摘要:
The instant invention provides for substituted thiazoles that inhibit Akt activity. In particular, the compounds disclosed selectively inhibit one or two of the Akt isoforms. The invention also provides for compositions comprising such inhibitory compounds and methods of inhibiting Akt activity by administering the compound to a patient in need of treatment of cancer.
摘要:
This invention relates to a general methodology for efficient creation of trimeric soluble receptors for therapeutic applications. The process involves gene fusion between a soluble receptor with a ligand binding domain and a trimerization tag from the C-propeptide domain of pro-collagen, which is capable of self-assembly into a covalently linked trimer. Using both in vitro bioassays and an in vivo mouse model for collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), we show that the homotrimeric soluble TNF receptor produced with such method is a more potent blocker than dimeric TNF receptor decoys in inhibiting TNF-α mediated inflammatory diseases.
