  • Minimized cyanobacterial microcompartment for carbon dioxide fixation
    Patent number: 11673923
    Abstract: A fusion chimeric protein is described herein that can assemble a functional carboxysome core, which is able to fix carbon by taking atmospheric carbon dioxide and converting it into useful carbon-containing compounds such as 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 31, 2019
    Date of Patent: June 13, 2023
    Assignee: Board of Trustees of Michigan State University
    Inventors: Cheryl A. Kerfeld, Cesar R. Gonzalez

  • Current detector circuit
    Patent number: 4310724
    Abstract: A current detector circuit, preferably for use in telephone equipment, to detect the on-hook and off-hook conditions of of such equipment, includes two equal transformers which have primary coils mounted in series and secondary coils mounted in series opposition, but in series with a circuit within which it is desired to detect the current. The primary coils constitute the load of the collector of an NPN transistor. Such collector is connected by means of a resistor to the base of a PNP transistor.
