  • Methods of producing a secreted protein
    Patent number: 8962273
    Abstract: The invention is directed to methods of producing a polypeptide or a variant thereof, wherein the polypeptide or variant thereof is dependent on LIMP-2 for trafficking, localization, stabilization and/or sorting of the polypeptide in the cell. In general, the methods comprise culturing a lysosomal integral membrane protein II (LIMP-2) deficient cell which expresses the polypeptide or the variant thereof under conditions in which the polypeptide or the variant thereof is produced.

  • Method for producing nanostructures on a substrate
    Patent number: 7914850
    Abstract: A method for producing nanostructures on a substrate, by dripping a solution of nanostructure-forming material in water onto the substrate heated to a temperature above the temperature at which a drop of the solution is initially suspended on a vapor cushion after being applied by dripping onto the substrate, with nanostructures being formed when the drops evaporate.
