  • Publication number: 20050089849
    Abstract: The present invention relates to expression vectors containing in vivo urea cycle enzyme gene; transformants thereof; and the use of transformants for protein overexpression. During the overexpression of protein, if the animal cell transformed with expression vectors of the present invention is used, amounts of ammonia accumulation within cell culture medium will decrease and cell growth rate will increase, thus, it is advantageous to be capable of obtaining desired protein in high yields.

  • Patent number: 6884610
    Abstract: An alkaline lipase isolated from Vibrio metschnikovii RH530 and a polynucleotide sequence encoding the same are provided. The isolated alkaline lipase has an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5 and the polynucleotide having a base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4 encodes the alkaline lipase. The isolated alkaline lipase exhibits an optimal activity at a high pH level, that is, at pH 10˜11, and has very high ratio of residual enzyme activity and high compatibility with a surfactant, so that it can be suitably used as an enzyme for a laundry detergent.

  • Publication number: 20050084947
    Abstract: The present invention relates to genetically engineered recombinant respiratory syncytial viruses and viral vectors which contain deletions of various viral accessory gene(s) either singly or in combination. In accordance with the present invention, the recombinant respiratory syncytial viral vectors and viruses are engineered to contain complete deletions of the M2-2, NS1, NS2, or SH viral accessory genes or various combinations thereof. In addition, the present invention relates to the attenuation of respiratory syncytial virus by mutagenisis of the M2-1 gene.

  • Publication number: 20050081544
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a valve control method for a refrigerator, and more particularly, to a valve control method for a refrigerator which controls a three-way valve for opening and closing refrigerant channels to a refrigerating chamber evaporator and a freshening chamber evaporator. The present invention is provided with the three-way valve of an AC valve for controlling the refrigerant to flow into the refrigerating chamber and the freshening chamber evaporator. In addition, in order to reduce driving noise generated from the three-way valve, the three-way valve is controlled to operate at a point of time when a predetermined time has passed after the compressor is driven. As a result, since driving noise caused from the three-way valve is drowned out by the driving noise of the three-way valve, an advantage of reducing the noise of the three-way valve can be expected.

  • Patent number: 6825413
    Abstract: A door mounting structure using a guide rail, capable of guiding movement of a door and minimizing the space occupied for opening and closing the door, is provided. The door mounting structure includes a case panel forming part of a case, a door to partially close the case panel, at least one guide protrusion formed in the door, and at least one guide rail guiding the guide protrusion to move the door inside of the case. According to the present invention, the door size has minimal effect on the internal layout of the computer case, thereby increasing the degree of freedom for designing. Also the door can be fixed at arbitrary position while being opened due to friction between a door boss and the guide rail.
