Patent number: 9447142Abstract: The present invention relates to a filamentous phage display method wherein the polypeptides of interest displayed on the phage particle are cotranslationally translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane of Gram-negative bacteria based on the signal recognition particle pathway. This method is particularly suitable for polypeptides, which are known to be difficult to display on phages, and for proteins of cDNA libraries and other combinatorial libraries, in particular when derived from very fast folding, stable protein scaffolds. The invention further relates to phage or phagemid vectors useful in the method comprising a gene construct coding for a fusion polypeptide comprising the polypeptide to be displayed on the phage particle and an N-terminal signal sequence promoting cotranslational translocation.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2014Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: University of ZurichInventors: Daniel Steiner, Patrik Forrer, Michael T.

Publication number: 20070171394Abstract: A system is provided for determining a distance to a target. In an exemplary embodiment, the system includes a pole and a distance measuring device. The pole includes a plurality of sockets formed in a surface of the pole above a selected lower reflecting point and a reflector mounted in each of the plurality of sockets. The lower reflecting point defines a minimum distance from a first end of the pole above which the reflectors are located for use with the distance measuring device. At least a portion of a signal received from the distance measuring device is reflected back to the distance measuring device by a receiving reflector. The distance measuring device includes a transmitter that transmits the signal at a first time, a receptor that receives the reflected signal from the receiving reflector at a second time, and a processor to determine the distance from the transmitter to the receiving reflector using the first time and the second time.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2006Publication date: July 26, 2007Inventors: Daniel Steiner, Rob O'Loughlin, Wayne Timberman, Michael Plitman

Patent number: 5542511Abstract: An apparatus for suspending at least one current-carrying contact wire for current collectors of overhead line buses or trams comprises a connecting element is fixed to a support cable. The connecting element is formed from an insulating plastic material, preferably a glass fiber-reinforced polyamide, and forms a unitary shaped body having a receiving member for a support element which is adjustable relative thereto, for supporting the gripping member. The connecting element includes a support shoe with connection eye for an insert which can be fixed therein, for receiving the support element in a pivotable manner and a clamping cover which can be screwed to the support shoe. The support shoe and clamping cover are provided with a longitudinal groove for receiving the support cable in a non-slip fashion.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 1993Date of Patent: August 6, 1996Assignee: Kummler + Matter AG FahrleitungstechnikInventors: Daniel Steiner, Willy Brassel, Karl Hagmann
