  • Publication number: 20240229053
    Abstract: An aspect provides plant cells with an engineered QPT gene and methods of using the same. When a QPT gene in a plant cell is genetically engineered according to an aspect, biosynthesis of nicotine is effectively inhibited, and nicotine is reduced by about 97% or more, and since alkaloids other than nicotine (nornicotine, anabasine, anatabine) are also reduced by about 68% or more, plant cells with reduced carcinogen TSNAs (NNK, NNN, NAB, and NAT) may be produced.

  • Patent number: 8692831
    Abstract: Provided is a parallel operation processing apparatus and method. The parallel operation processing apparatus and method may generate an interpolated matrix with respect to a character included in each of a current frame and a next frame using a matrix corresponding to each of the current frame and the next frame generated, based on joint information corresponding to a plurality of joints included in the character. Also, the parallel operation processing apparatus and method may display an interpolated frame using the interpolated matrix.
