Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a fusion polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide of interest. The method comprises the steps of providing a first polynucleotide and a second polynucleotide, and contacting said first polynucleotide and second polynucleotide with a type IIs restriction endonuclease and a ligase under conditions that allow for the cleavage of the first polynucleotide and second polynucleotide by said type IIs restriction endonuclease and the ligation of the resulting cleavage products, thereby producing the fusion polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide of interest. The first polynucleotide comprises the 5? portion of an intron, and the second polynucleotide comprises the 3? portion of an intron. Further envisaged by the present invention is a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide of interest, which, when transcribed in a eukaryotic host cell, is transcribed into a transcript comprising at least five introns which are heterologous to said polynucleotide.

Abstract: The present invention concerns antibody-like binding protein specifically binding to CD3 and binding specifically to at least one further antigen, for example CD123. The present invention also concerns antibody-like binding protein specifically binding to CD123 and binding specifically to at least one further antigen. The invention further concerns anti-CD3 antibodies and anti-CD123 antibodies. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibody-like binding protein, anti-CD3 antibodies or anti-CD123 antibodies of the invention, and their use to treat cancer. The invention further relates to isolated nucleic acids, vectors and host cells comprising a sequence encoding said antibody-like binding protein, anti-CD3 or anti-CD123 antibody and the use of said anti-CD123 antibody as a diagnostic tool.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for recognizing and/or characterizing cellular activity patterns, in particular for diagnostic purposes and/or for tracking the therapy of diseases. Blood cells are stimulated in a culture medium at least with toll-like receptor ligands (TLR ligands) and the stimulated blood cells and/or the culture medium are examined.

Abstract: The invention relates to substituted sulfonylpyrrolidines of the formula I and to the physiologically tolerated salts thereof, as well as to their use as medicaments.

Abstract: A cooking appliance has a cooking space for receiving a product to be cooked. The cooking space communicates with a cooling-air feeding device and with a sensor module which is provided for sensing a infrared radiation of a surface area under measurement located in the cooking space. The sensor module is disposed at least partially in an air stream provided by the cooling-air feeding device. Impairment of the measuring quality by the air stream is prevented by an extraction device that is provided for extracting air from the cooking space. The extraction device and the feeding device define an imaginary straight line joining a mouth opening of the cooling-air feeding device on the cooking space side and a mouth opening of the extraction device on the cooking space side being at a distance from the surface area under measurement.
