  • Publication number: 20240092141
    Abstract: An air conditioning device for a vehicle includes: a housing having an inside divided into an inflow space, a heat exchange space, and an outflow space, which are straightly arranged, and having a plurality of discharge ports, which communicates with an interior, at the inflow space; a blowing unit disposed at the inflow space of the housing and configured to blow air; a heat exchange unit disposed at the heat exchange space of the housing and configured to adjust a temperature of conditioned air by exchanging heat with air; and an opening-closing door disposed at the outflow space of the housing and configured to open and close the plurality of discharge ports such that conditioned air at an adjusted temperature selectively flows to the plurality of discharge ports. The air conditioning device adjusts the temperature of conditioned air for respective modes and reduces a flow resistance of air.

  • Patent number: 9890409
    Abstract: Provided is a composition for producing astringin among metabolites of polydatin, wherein the astringin may be mass-produced by oxidizing the polydatin using a CYP102A1 chimera and mutants thereof as a catalyst, the CYP102A1 chimera being produced by fusing a reductase domain of a wild-type CYP102A1 which is a bacterial cytochrome P450 enzyme, with a heme domain of a CYP102A1 mutant.

  • Patent number: 8729340
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a Solanum lycopersicum histidine decarboxylase-2 (SlHD-2) gene-derived fruit-specific expression promoter, to a 5? untranslated region (5?-UTR), to a (5?UTR), —specific expression vector comprising same, to a method for the fruit-specific expression of an exotic gene using the expression vector, to a plant transformed with the expression vector, and to a seed thereof. According to the present invention, a gene introduced from a transformed plant can be specifically expressed fruit tissue as compared to the widely used conventional Cauliflower mosaic virus-derived CaMV 35S promoter which induces the expression of an exotic gene in the whole tissue. Further, the present invention can be valuably used in the development of a transformed plant, which seeks to produce valuable substances from fruit.

  • Patent number: 8350124
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a root specific plant expression promoter and 5?-untranslated region (5?-UTR) from Aquaporin gene of Capsicum annuum, a root specific plant expression vector comprising the same, a process for root specif-expression of a foreign gene by using said vector, and a plant transformed with said vector and seeds of the transformed plant. According to the present invention, the root specific expression promoter of the present invention can be used for root specific expression of a gene that is introduced to a transformed plant, compared to CaMV35S promoter from cauliflower mosaic virus by which gene expression is promoted in entire tissues of a plant. Consequently, the claimed invention can be advantageously used for the development of a transformed plant which is desired to be used for production of a useful material in a plant root.
