Abstract: Disclosed is a polypeptide containing an extracellular domain of a synaptogenic protein, and a method for manufacturing a nerve cell, a complex containing a biotin tagged at the C-terminus of the polypeptide, an artificial synapse inducer for coupling the composite to a streptavidin (SAV)-coated substrate and a nerve cell. The complex tagged with a biotin at the C-terminus of the polypeptide containing the extracellular domain of the synaptogenic protein, such as neuroligin-1, can display activity by being attached to the SAV-coated substrate to adjust the orientation thereof without help of a supported lipid bilayer. The complex containing an additional RFP between the extracellular domain and the biotin of the synaptogenic protein not only facilitates easier mass-production, quantification, and tracking, but also displays activity of a normal synaptogenic protein, thereby inducing excitatory or inhibitory synaptic differentiation by being fixed to the substrate and added to the nerve cell culture.

Abstract: A damping force controlling shock absorber can generate a hard damping force through disk slits during a low speed operation by adding a disk valve to a chamber, can constantly maintain a pressure of a back pressure compartment by opening a disk valve and discharge the pressure of the back pressure compartment to the outside when the pressure of the back pressure compartment is at a predetermined level or more, thereby generating a harder damping force during a low speed operation, and can adjust a disk valve open pressure during a medium/high speed operation so as to prevent the durability of the equipment from being lowered by an excessive increase of a pressure and prevent an abnormal operation from occurring.
