Also provided is an analytical device comprising a sensor and methods using the sensor molecule.

Abstract: The invention relates to the in vitro and in cellulo detection of the cofactors nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Provided is a sensor molecule for fluorescence or luminescence-based detection of a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide analyte, in particular for detecting the concentrations of NAD+, NADP? and/or the ratios of the concentrations of NAD?/NAD H and NADP?/NADPH, the sensor comprising (i) a binding protein (BP) for the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide analyte, the BP being derived from sepiapterin reductase (SPR; EC 1.1.1.153) (ii) a SPR ligand (SPR-L) capable of intramolecular binding to said BP in the presence of the oxidized form of said analyte; and (iii) at least one fluorophore.

Abstract: Multiple scheduler verticals can allocate tasks to resources that are shared by the scheduler verticals. Information regarding a state of each resource may be stored in memory accessible by the multiple scheduler verticals, and a processor updates the information. The scheduler verticals schedule events to be performed by any of the resources, and submit updates to reflect the scheduled events in the information. In the event of conflicting events, an update corresponding to only one of the conflicting events is committed. Moreover, disruptions may be preplanned and scheduled so as to minimize impact on scheduled tasks.

Abstract: A connector assembly (1) comprises an outer housing (300); and a latch (330), which is carried by the outer housing (300), to allow a coupling of the connector assembly to a corresponding counter connector. Further, the outer housing (300) is configured to receive at least one of two different types of cables (100) through a first end and at least one of two different module mating interfaces (430, 432, 434) at a second end. In another embodiment the outer housing (300) is arranged movable on an inner housing (200), and the latch (330) is rotatably arranged on the outer housing (300).
