Abstract: Recording in a memory configured to temporarily record captured images is controlled in response to a shift instruction from a user. A control unit receives, from the user, the shift instruction containing an information item of specifying any of images displayed on a display unit, and updates an image recording start position in the memory in response to the shift instruction. A recording region for preceding captured images with respect to the updated recording start position is set as an overwritable region so that subsequent captured images can be recorded. The display unit displays, for example, images captured at intervals of a predetermined time period so that the user can select any of the images and issue the shift instruction. In this way, a region preceding a position of a selected image in the memory is set to be overwritable so that the subsequent captured images are recorded.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a battery capacity computing unit configured to compute a current full-charge capacity of a currently inserted battery apparatus having secondary cells. The battery capacity computing unit acquires at least information on a full-charge capacity of the battery apparatus in a brand-new state and information on the battery charge/discharge cycle count from the battery apparatus, retains a correction coefficient used when computing the current full-charge capacity of the battery apparatus, and calculates the current full-charge capacity of the battery apparatus using the information on the full-charge capacity of the battery apparatus in a brand-new state, the information on the battery charge/discharge cycle count, and the correction coefficient.

Abstract: An object is to provide a novel method for improving an enzyme capable of deamidating a protein. A mutant protein deamidase is designed by the following steps: (A) identifying one or more amino acid in an amino acid sequence for a protein deamidase which corresponds to the amino acid at position 35, 38 to 43, 45, 46, 49, 79 to 84, 103 to 106, 117, 142, 143, 146, 166, or 185 in the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2; and (B) constructing a mutant amino acid sequence of the protein deamidase by substituting the one or more amino acid identified in step (A) with another amino acid or other amino acids or by deleting the one or more amino acid identified in step (A).
