  • Publication number: 20240067996
    Abstract: The invention provides a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain for producing a human milk lipid substitute. By integrating a heterologous lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase into Saccharomyces cerevisiae and knocking out its own natural lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase, the content of palmitic acid (C16:0) at Sn-2 position of triacylglycerol produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae is increased, to synthesize a human milk lipid substitute. On this basis, a metabolic pathway related gene is knocked out, to further increase the content of human milk lipid substitute in the product. In the present invention, a human milk lipid substitute is de novo synthesized by Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the first time, in which the total fatty acid is 15% or more, and the relative content of C16:0 at Sn-2 position reaches about 60%.

  • Publication number: 20240045985
    Abstract: This specification provides example data query methods, apparatuses, and systems for a multi-party secure database. In an example computer-implemented method, a central node receives a data query request from a data requester, where the data query request relates to one or more pieces of target data stored at one or more data providers. The central node determines whether the data query request satisfies respective security requirements of the one or more pieces of target data. In response to determining that the data query request satisfies respective security requirements of the one or more pieces of target data, the central node processes the one or more pieces of target data to obtain result data; and sends the result data to the data requester. The central node can restrict query of the target data by the data requester based on the security requirement of the target data stored at the data provider.

  • Patent number: 11505219
    Abstract: A device for connecting a cross member for receiving pivot pins on two lower longitudinal members of a car body for a rail vehicle. The cross member has a transversal part that connects the two longitudinal members to each other in the region of the connection, and a longitudinal part that extends to the closest car front. The lower longitudinal members extend over the complete length of the car body and consist of multi-chamber hollow profiles made of a fibre composite material. The number of chambers of the multi-chamber hollow profile of each longitudinal member is reduced in the region of the connection such that the wall material of at least one chamber was removed in such a way that the webs to the adjacent chambers are exposed. At these places, load-introducing elements engage, to which load-introducing elements the cross member is attached.
