Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to biosynthesis of cannabinoids and cannabinoid precursors in recombinant cells and in vitro. Specifically, the disclosure is directed to a prenyltransferase variant, a chimeric prenyltransferase comprising one or more portions of at least two different prenyltransferase proteins, and a fusion polypeptide comprising a CBG-type producing prenyltransferase and farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase.

Abstract: Lithiated metal organic frameworks, methods of manufacturing lithiated metal organic frameworks, for example, by binding a solvent molecule to the MOF structure to achieve a highly lithiated bound solvent metal organic framework having improved Li+-ion conductivity, and applications for use of the lithiated metal organic frameworks, for example, in various capacities in rechargeable lithium batteries.

Abstract: An exhaust gas treatment system includes in order: an intake for receiving an exhaust gas from a lean burn combustion engine; an injector for the provision of a nitrogenous reductant; a close-coupled vanadium-containing SCR catalyst composition; one or more downstream PGM-containing oxidation catalyst compositions, wherein the close-coupled vanadium-containing SCR catalyst composition includes cerium in a Ce:V molar ratio of greater than 0.3.

Abstract: Methods and compositions related to a selective catalytic reduction catalyst comprising iron and vanadium, wherein the vanadium is present as (1) one or more vanadium oxides, and (2) metal vanadate of the form FexMyVO4 where x=0.2 to 1 and y=1?x, and where M comprises one or more non-Fe metals when y>0.

Abstract: A method for router configuration includes: at a router, collecting DHCP server presence data of a local area network; at the router, collecting NAT server presence data of the local area network; generating a network configuration status based upon the DHCP server presence data and the NAT server presence data; and configuring DHCP server and NAT server settings of the router based on the network configuration status.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for storing a flexible conduit, such as an electrical cord of a set of personal head phones or similar. The device has a body and a drum rotationally coupled to the body. The drum is biased to rotate in a first direction. A latch movable between a latched position and an unlatched position prevents rotation of the drum in the first direction when the latch is in the latched position. The body has an opening for positioning a portion of flexible conduit. At least one coupling disposed on the drum extends into the opening for catching a portion of a flexible conduit positioned within the opening. When the latch is in the unlatched position the drum rotates in the first direction to cycle the coupling through the opening. A coupling catches a flexible conduit positioned within the opening to wind the flexible conduit onto the drum.

Abstract: Unique labels for security or identification purposes, methods of making the labels and uses for the labels are described herein. The label is formed from one or more crystalline materials, optionally in combination with a non-crystalline material, or from a combination of polymers, and has a unique, detectable pattern. In one embodiment, the label is formed from a crystalline material, preferably a metallic material, which naturally contains a unique grain structure, with unique reflective properties. In a preferred embodiment, the label is formed of a metallic material that has been recrystallized to enlarge the size of the grains so that they are visible to the unaided human eye.

Abstract: Lubricating compositions, containing non-modified and modified multifunctional, polyionic copolymers and an aqueous lubricating medium, and methods for making and using such compositions are described herein. The lubricating compositions are applied to metal oxide surfaces, which are in contact with each other. The copolymers can serve as a surface protective boundary layer for the sliding surfaces, or they can also be used for the immobilization of further molecules, which can modify the tribological properties of the surfaces.
