Abstract: An asparagine-linked glycan (N-glycan) detection reagent is provided that utilizes Fbs variants engineered from mouse Fbs proteins, wherein the Fbs variants bind specifically to N-glycosylated peptides and proteins and not to non-glycosylated peptides and proteins, including wherein the Fbs variants bind to N-glycosylated peptides and proteins and not to corresponding non-glycosylated versions of the same peptides and proteins. Compositions and methods for developing and using N-glycosylation-specific analytical, diagnostic, and therapeutic tools are provided.

Abstract: In a fuel flap, a first fastening element is attached to a hinge arm. The hinge arm has a second fastening element co-acting with the first fastening element in order to attach the fuel flap to the hinge arm at a predetermined position. The first fastening element includes at least two approximately parallel fastening ribs, at least one of the ribs having two spaced holes and the other has at least one hole, with the axes of the holes being parallel. The second fastening element includes at least three projections having a cross-section complementary to that of the holes. A resilient portion is formed to the hinge arm which upon engagement of the projection in holes is temporarily deformed and after the engagement of the projections in the holes is deformed back and cooperates with a locking portion of the fuel flap so that the fuel flap is secured.
