  • Patent number: 12383624
    Abstract: One aspect of the disclosure relates to a cargo delivery system comprising an autophagy targeting ligand and a target-binding ligand. In one aspect of the disclosure, by comprising an autophagy targeting ligand, cargo, which is a target-binding ligand that specifically binds to a target, is delivered to the p62 protein and autophagy is activated, so that depending on the type of target-binding ligand used, a target to be degraded can be selectively and directly removed. Accordingly, the cargo delivery system according to an aspect of the disclosure may be used in pharmaceutical compositions or food compositions for preventing, alimerating, and treating various diseases.

  • Patent number: 12273124
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium and related method, including processing circuitry, which performs in-order error correction code construction. The processing circuitry receives a first plurality of matrices. The processing circuitry is to generate a second plurality of matrices based on at least one additive candidate matrix and each respective matrix of the first plurality of matrices. The processing circuitry then generates a third plurality of matrices based on at least one additive test matrix and each respective matrix of the second plurality of matrices. Each respective weight indicative of respective extensibility for each matrix of the second plurality of matrices is determined based on the third plurality of matrices. At least one matrix from the second plurality of matrices is then selected by processing circuitry based on the determined weights. The processing circuitry then generates an error correction code based on one of the at least one selected matrix.
