  • Patent number: 11306318
    Abstract: The present invention provides a vector construct comprising the following components: (i) a sequence encoding a signal peptide which directs proteins into the Tat secretory pathway; and (ii) a sequence encoding a fluorophore fused to a sequence encoding a pVIII phage coat protein. Nucleic acid molecules comprising components (i) and (ii) are also provided, together with phage particles comprising such vectors or nucleic acid molecules and expressing a fluorophore-pVIII fusion protein on the surface. Methods for producing such fluorescent phage particles are also provided.

  • Patent number: 11080053
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms described herein include a signal processor implemented as an overlay on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) device that utilizes special purpose, hardened intellectual property (IP) modules such as memory blocks and digital signal processing (DSP) cores. A Processing Element (PE) is built from one or more DSP cores connected to additional logic. Interconnected as an array, the PEs may operate in a computational model such as Single Instruction-Multiple Thread (SIMT). A software hierarchy is described that transforms the SIMT array into an effective signal processor.
