Abstract: The present invention relates to a pyrimidine compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof represented by the following formula [I] wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification and a method of therapeutically or prophylactically treating an undesirable cell proliferation, comprising administering such a compound. The compound of the present invention has superior activity in suppressing undesirable cell proliferation, particularly, an antitumor activity, and is useful as an antitumor agent for the prophylaxis or treatment of cancer, rheumatism, and the like. In addition, the compound of the present invention can be a more effective antitumor agent when used in combination with other antitumor agents such as an alkylating agent or metabolism antagonist.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is useful as a stored object detector and a method of detecting stored objects configured to capture an image a movable storage portion, and objects stored in the storage portion, and configured to acquire storage information including at least one of position, size and quantity of the stored object based on the captured image. In addition, disclosed herein is a dishwasher configured to identify at least storage area of dish stored in a dish storage basket. It is possible to estimate a position of a basket, although the number of feature points is small. Therefore, when installing a detection indicator corresponding to the feature point, which is separated from the general configuration, to the basket, it is not required to install a large number of detection indicator, and thus it is possible to improve the appearance of the dishwasher.

Abstract: The present invention to provide a dryer having high drying efficiency and possible to energy saving operation. A controller (3) of the dryer (D) include an information receiver (33) configured to collect drying object information about a state of the Object© to be dried in the drum (2). A controller (3) of the dryer (D) controls an output of the heater to have an output per unit time lower than a predetermined output of normal based on a state of the object to be dried collected by the information receiver, and controls a drying ending time based on a state of the object to be dried and an output of the heater.

Abstract: The present invention provides genes that encode the N-acetyl-(R,S)-?-amino acid acylases. The N-acetyl-(R,S)-?-amino acid acylases were isolated and purified from bacterial cells and the nucleotide sequences were determined. A host, such as Escherichia coli, was used to construct a high-expression system for these genes. The N-acetyl-(R)-?-amino acid acylase produced by Burkholderia sp. AJ110349 (FERM BP-10366) includes, for example, the protein having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ. ID. NO. 8. The gene encoding this enzyme includes, for example, the DNA having the nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ. ID. NO. 7. The N-acetyl-(S)-?-amino acid acylase produced by Burkholderia sp. AJ110349 (FERM BP-10366) includes, for example, the protein having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ. ID. NO. 10. The gene encoding this enzyme includes, for example, the DNA having the nucleotide sequence shown inshown in SEQ. ID. NO. 9. The N-acetyl-(R)-?-amino acid acylase produced by Variovorax sp.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a Variovorax sp. which produces an acylase having an asymmetric hydrolysis activity on an N-acetyl ?-amino acid to selectively produce an R-?-amino acid, and a Burkholderia sp. which produces both an acylase having an asymmetric hydrolysis activity on an N-acetyl ?-amino acid to selectively produce an S-?-amino acid and an acylase having an asymmetric hydrolysis activity of an N-acetyl ?-amino acid to selectively produce an R-?-amino acid, and a process for the selective production of an S-, or R-?-amino acid using the above strains.
