Abstract: A fractional slot electric motor includes a stator core having a first side, a second side, and stator slots extending between the first and second sides. The fractional slot electric motor also includes a coil having a plurality of coil elements, where each coil element extends through at least one of the stator slots. Each coil element is coupled to at least one other coil element along the first side of the stator core. A first subset of the coil elements includes coil elements coupled to each other along the second side of the stator core. A second subset of the coil elements includes loop coil elements, where each loop coil element extends from one of the stator slots to another of the stator slots along the second side of the stator core without being connected to other coil elements along the second side of the stator core.

Abstract: The present invention provides user-directed construction of novel specific homo- and hetero-dimeric, and multimeric assemblages of proteins. The present invention is comprised of gene sequences that transcribe peptide sequences that form links between proteins, where the peptide sequences produce a hook or loop which supports specific self-assembly of homo-dimers, hetero-dimers and multimers of the proteins to which they are attached. The hook or loop may have a short aliphatic repeat sequence and a metal binding loop. The present invention also provides a method of constructing a hook motif of metal binding loop sequences that may be attached to at least one aliphatic repeat sequence to produce the assemblages of proteins. Also provided are protein structures produced by the methods of the present invention.

Abstract: The present invention provides user-directed construction of novel specific homo- and hetero-dimeric, and multimeric assemblages of proteins. The present invention is comprised of a family of peptide sequences that forms links between proteins, where the peptide sequences produce a hook or loop which supports specific self-assembly of dimers of the proteins to which they are attached. The hook or loop may have a short aliphatic repeat and a metal binding loop. Also provided is a method of constructing a hook motif of metal binding loop sequences attached to at least one aliphatic carbon sequence to produce homo-dimeric, hetero-dimeric and multimeric assemblages of proteins.
