  • COMPOUNDS WHICH INHIBIT BETA-SECRETASE ACTIVITY AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20100267609
    Abstract: Compounds inhibit memapsin 2 ?-secretase activity and selectively inhibit memapsin 2 ?-secretase activity relative to memapsin 1 ?-secretase activity. The compounds are employed in methods to inhibit memapsin 2 ?-secretase activity, in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, in the inhibition of hydrolysis of a ?-secretase site of a ?-amyloid precursor protein and to decrease ?-amyloid protein in in vitro samples and in mammals. Proteins of memapsin 2 associated with compounds of the invention are crystallized.

  • Method for depositing a Tio.sub.2 layer using a periodic and simultaneous tilting and rotating platform motion
    Patent number: 5081069
    Abstract: Method and apparatus are disclosed for depositing a uniform layer of material, such as titanium dioxide, on the surface of an object, such as a silicon sphere of a solar array (7). Component gases are injected at predetermined rates into a heated reaction chamber (5) where they react. Because of the reaction rate and injection velocities of the gases, the reaction is substantially completed at a calculated location inside the reaction chamber (5). The object which is to receive the layer, such as the solar array (7), is placed at the calculated location in the reaction chamber (5). The platform (68) to which the solar array (7) is attached is simultaneously tilted and rotated such that all areas of the surface of the array (7) are uniformly exposed to the titanium dioxide reactant.
