  • Publication number: 20220325289
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides molecular tools, methods and kits for using cell division loci (CDLs) to control cell proliferation in animal cells. CDLs, as provided herein, are loci whose transcription product(s) are expressed during cell division. CDLs may be genetically modified, as described herein, to comprise a negative selectable marker and/or an inducible activator-based gene expression system, which allows a user to permit, ablate, and/or inhibit proliferation of the genetically modified cell(s) by adding or removing an appropriate inducer.

  • Patent number: 10655789
    Abstract: A lighting bulb according to embodiments of the disclosure comprises a light source assembly, a base and a transparent top cap. The light source assembly has a carrier plate, a first plurality of light-emitting units and a second plurality of light-emitting units. The carrier plate has first and second surfaces. The base is for fixing the carrier plate to have the first surface facing to a first direction and the second surface facing to a second direction opposite to the first direction. The transparent top cap has an inner surface facing to a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. The first and second plurality of light-emitting units are located between the transparent top cap and the base.
