  • Patent number: 6541619
    Abstract: The present invention provides a genetically engineered fusion protein consisting of hEGF that is internalized inside of the cells after tracing down the cancer cells expressing hEGF receptors and human angiogenin that is cytotoxic by degrading ribonucleotide upon internalization, a process for preparing a fusion protein in a large quantity by transforming E. coli with the expression vectors containing the gene encoding the fusion protein, and pharmaceutical application of the fusion protein as an anticancer agent. All components of the fusion protein form no antibodies and exhibit no immunotoxicity since they are derived from human. Each component alone is inactive to the cancer cells, however, once they are fused together, they kill the cancer cells selectively with a difference of 1000 fold in IC50 in spite of its low molecular weight. Therefore, the fusion protein of the present invention is capable of treating the cancer expressing hEGF receptors at high level without showing toxicity.

  • Patent number: 5857343
    Abstract: A room air conditioner includes an air inlet, an air outlet, a heat exchanger disposed between the inlet and outlet, and an air circulation fan. The inlet is opened and closed by motor-driven inlet vanes. The outlet is opened and closed by a vertically slidable motor-driven door. Air direction control vanes extend across the outlet for varying the direction of discharged air. Before the door is either opened or closed, the air control vanes are automatically swung upwardly to a clearance position to avoid interfering with movement of the door. When the inlet and outlet are to be closed, the inlet vane motor is actuated prior the door motor to ensure that the inlet and outlet are fully closed simultaneously, even though it takes longer for the inlet vanes to travel to their fully closed state. A sensor determines when the door reaches an almost-closed state, and the door motor continues to operate for a set period thereafter to ensure that the door becomes fully closed.
