Abstract: An energy production and distribution system, a hydrogen production and distribution system, and a method are disclosed. The energy production and distribution system may include one or more previously decommissioned maritime resources positioned in floating and/or adjacent disposition with a body of water. An electricity generating apparatus may be disposed in an off-grid configuration on each of the maritime resources to generate electricity. Electrolysis electrodes may be electrically coupled with the electricity generating apparatus and may disposed to make contact with water in the body of water to perform an electrolysis operation to separate hydrogen from the water using the generated electricity. A hydrogen capturing element may disposed to capture the hydrogen separated from the water. A storage container may hold the hydrogen, and a conduit may be provided to transfer the hydrogen from the hydrogen capturing element to the storage container.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and compositions for the identification of inhibitors of farnesyltransferase enzymes involved in the prenylation of various cellular proteins, including cancer related ras proteins, such as p21.sup.ras, particularly, K-rasB. Enclosed are procedures for using purified farnesyltransferase enzymes and K-rasB proteins in screening protocols for the identification of possible anticancer agents that inhibit the enzyme and thereby prevent prenylation of proteins such as K-RasB.

Abstract: Benzodiazepine derivatives represented by the structure below are disclosed that act as potent inhibitors of ras farnesyl:protein transferase. Pharmaceutical compositions containing these benzodiazepines are provided for treatment of diseases foe which inhibition of the ras farnesyl:protein transferase as indicated.
