  • Patent number: 12383614
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of biomedicine, and in particular, to an improved mutant of a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion (F) protein and uses thereof. The mutant can form a trimeric structure without introducing a heterologous trimerization domain. Meanwhile, through mutation designs such as releasing internal electrostatic repulsion, deleting the furin cleavage site, truncating the C-terminal domain, and introducing interchain disulfide bonds, the protein is stabilized in the pre-fusion conformation and exhibits enhanced stability. The mutant in the present disclosure is highly immunogenic when used as a vaccine or a vaccine component and can induce the production of a high level of neutralizing antibodies in the immunized animal, which can be used in the preparation of a vaccine for the prevention or treatment of RSV infection, and can also be used as a reagent for the detection of RSV.

  • Patent number: 12388287
    Abstract: A BBU balanced power supply control system, including: a control circuit, a gating circuit, a first comparison circuit, a second comparison circuit, and an output voltage stabilizing circuit. A power supply ratio of each BBU is obtained by the control circuit. The power supply ratio is a ratio of an output current to a remaining capacity percentage. An imbalance of the power supply ratio is converted by the first comparison circuit and the second comparison circuit into a corresponding adjustment signal. Finally, by negative feedback of the output voltage stabilizing circuit, the BBU having the highest power supply ratio is controlled to reduce the output current, and the remaining BBUs participating in redundant power supply are enabled to raise the output current. Also disclosed are a multi-BBU power supply system and a server.
