Abstract: Techniques described herein generally relate to methods, data processing devices and computer readable media to ensure that data stored in a remote backing storage device are in encrypted form before that data is transferred to another device or over a network. In some examples, the methods, data processing devices and computer readable media may be arranged to encrypt the data passed to the network when the data stored in the backing storage device is in unencrypted form. Also disclosed are methods, data processing devices and computer readable media that identify when the data stored in the backing storage device is in unencrypted form, including methods that may detect that the data may appear to be in encrypted form as a result of the data being compressed.

Abstract: Methods are provided for identifying agents capable of modulating cap-dependent RNA translation by comparing translation efficiency in the presence and absence of the agent in an in-vitro or in-vivo translation system that comprises eIF4A and an mRNA having one or more eIF4A-dependent translation-controlling motifs. The modulation of translation in the presence of the agent indicates the agent as capable of modulating cap-dependent mRNA translation. The method can be used to identify anti-cancer agents and oncogenes that may be responsible for tumorigenesis.
