Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for the heterologous production of acetyl-CoA-derived isoprenoids in a host cell. In some embodiments, the host cell is genetically modified to comprise a heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding an acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, acetylating (ADA, E.C. 1.2.1.10) and an MEV pathway comprising an NADH-using HMG-CoA reductase. In some embodiments, the host cell is genetically modified to comprise a heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding an ADA and an MEV pathway comprising an acetoacetyl-CoA synthase. In some embodiments, the genetically modified host cell further comprises one or more heterologous nucleotide sequences encoding a phosphoketolase and a phosphotransacetylase. In some embodiments, the genetically modified host cell further comprises a functional disruption of the native PDH-bypass. The compositions and methods described herein provide an energy-efficient yet redox balanced route for the heterologous production of acetyl-CoA-derived isoprenoids.

Abstract: An orthodontic device for retaining teeth in position, or for making minor adjustments to tooth position. The dental retainer includes a rigid lingual portion or arch, and a more flexible and comfortable labial portion or arch, arranged so as to allow the cutting surfaces of the upper and lower molar teeth to meet. Small protrusions of harder material may be located on the inner surface of the labial portion to fit between the teeth in order to prevent relapse of tooth position.

A second plastic layer has the same structure and light transmission properties. The peripheral edges are connected. The first and second plastic layer central regions are spaced apart forming a closed cavity. The first and second plastic layer central regions are also connected forming a thermal bridge and dividing the cavity into a plurality of subcavities that fluidly communicate. The cavity includes a fluid medium having average percent light transmission of at least 85%. The combination of first and second plastic layers and fluid is sufficiently flexible to form a 2-T bend or tighter.

Abstract: A machine and method for high speed production of circuit patterns on silicon wafers or similar substrates may be used for applications including printing Integrated Circuit (IC) packaging patterns onto wafers prior to separating IC chips. Projection camera(s) simultaneously project image(s) onto substrate(s) carried on an X, Y, ? stage. The projection camera(s) may include independent alignment systems, light sources, and control of focus, image placement, image size, and dose. In one embodiment, each camera inlcudes a 6-axis reticle chuck that moves a reticle to correct image-to-substrate overlay errors. In-stage metrology sensors and machine software establish and maintain the correct relationship among the machine's coordinate systems. Thus, two or more projection cameras can print simultaneously even when substrates are slightly misplaced on the X, Y, ? stage.

Abstract: A data processing system has a processing unit and a memory which provides a common pool of physical storage. This storage is initially assigned as either main storage or expanded storage during power on. Subsequent to the initial assignment, storage assigned as main storage or expanded storage may be unassigned and thus returned to the common pool. Once returned to the common pool, the storage may be reassigned as either main storage or expanded storage. The storage reassignment is done dynamically without requiring a reset action and transparent to the operating system and any active application programs.

Abstract: In a partitioned process environment, storage is reassigned by a shuffle of guest absolute address spaces which may be reassigned among partitions without restriction as to the position of the space to be reassigned relative to the position of the partition to which it is to be assigned. The reassignment is accomplished by adjusting the origin addresses by an adjustment value corresponding to the size of the address space of an additional memory area to be added to a selected partition. Furthermore, the size of the address space of the selected partition is increased by the same adjustment value. The system employs duplicated origin and limit arrays which are used to convert from a partition (guest) absolute address to a system (host) absolute address and uses duplicated configuration arrays by which the system absolute addresses are converted to physical memory addresses.

Abstract: Automatic machine methods and apparatus for determining which components of an I/O configuration are shared by other components of the configuration. The information can be obtained through the use of existing self-description facilities and unique identifiers. By noting which channel paths are used to obtain configuration-data records and examining the unique identifiers provided for each I/O items it can be determined which I/O devices are accessible through the same control unit, and which control units provide access to the same I/O device. Furthermore, by examining the unique identifiers provided, it can be determined which I/O subsystems and which control units or channel subsystems are accessible through the same dynamic switch and which dynamic switches provide access to the same I/O subsystem of channel subsystem.
