  • Publication number: 20240052340
    Abstract: The present inventors used aminoacylated tRNAs prepared by ligating a pCpA-amino acid to a tRNA lacking the 3?-terminal CA sequence using a ligase, and thereby succeeded in discrimination between the NNA and NNG codons in specific codon boxes, which had been difficult to achieve due to the presence of wobble base pairing. Furthermore, the inventors assigned another amino acid to the NNU or NNC codon in the same codon box, and performed translation of a sequence containing the NNU, NNA, and NNG codons, or the NNC, NNA, and NNG codons to evaluate the codon discrimination ability. As a result, the codons of interest were specifically translated into only the corresponding amino acids, achieving accurate discrimination successfully. Furthermore, the inventors confirmed that similar effects can also be obtained even when the nucleotide sequence of the tRNA body is altered.

  • Patent number: 9377977
    Abstract: A feature of the recording device is used to shorten the length of time that a wireless communication link with a recording device is not established for a control device that communicates wirelessly with a recording device when a wireless communication link can be established. A communication control unit 15b of a host computer 10 detects and reports to a recording control unit 15a that printer 11 power was turned off. After receiving this report that the printer 11 power is off from the communication control unit 15b, the recording control unit 15a requests the communication control unit 15b to establish a wireless communication link with the printer 11 and open a virtual COM port during the period until a new wireless communication link with the printer 11 is established.
