  • Publication number: 20230132569
    Abstract: Many strains of the human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis carry a compact Cas9 (NmeCas9) that can serve to limit genetic exchange via natural transformation. Cas9 orthologues (including NmeCas9) have recently been adopted for RNA-guided genome engineering and DNA binding, adding to the need to define better their activities and properties. The present invention examines DNA cleavage activities and substrate requirements of NmeCas9, including a set of unusually complex PAM recognition patterns. Unexpectedly, NmeCas9 is found able to cleave single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) targets in a manner that is RNA-guided but both PAM- and tracrRNA-independent. Beyond the requirement for guide-target pairing, this activity has no apparent sequence requirements, and the cleavage sites are measured from the 5? end of the DNA substrate's RNA-paired region.

    Abstract: Systems and methods relating to dynamic spargers for generating fine bubbles within reactors such as biological and chemical reactors. A sparger system is positioned within a reactor and comprises a support plate, multiple annular shrouds engaged with the support plate, and spargers positioned within the annular shrouds defining a gap between an interior surface of the annular shroud and an exterior surface of the corresponding sparger. Liquid flows through the defined gap between an interior surface of the annular shroud and an exterior surface of the sparger. Acceleration of the liquid through the gap shears bubbles at the exterior surface of the sparger creating bubbles or fine bubbles.

  • Publication number: 20230132600
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to an implantable electric circuit (300) for medical stimulation The circuit comprises a plurality of capacitors (301) and a network of resistors (302). Each of the plurality of capacitors (301) is configured to couple radio frequency energy from one of a plurality of electrically conductive filaments (5) of a lead to the network of resistors (302). Further, the network of resistors (302) is configured to connect the plurality of capacitors (301) together to dissipate the radio frequency energy between the plurality of electrically conductive filaments. The network of resistors dissipates the energy between the filaments, which reduces negative impacts for the patient when subjected to MRI imaging. Further, no ground is required and as a result, the circuit can be placed into a header of an implantable pulse generator or into the lead itself.

  • Publication number: 20230132605
    Abstract: Structure and functionality reduce differential leakage current and compensate for differential capacitance discharge current from diode configurations to mitigate differential output polarity reversal that may occur in driver circuits. In an example driver circuit, one of two current sources coupled between a supply voltage and one output node is disabled during a driver disable time period (tpz) while the other continues to operate during a pre-charge monopulse time period (td) within tpz. A third current source on the other side of the driver circuit and coupled to ground is also disabled during tpz. During td, the following components are enabled: a charge current source coupled between the supply voltage and a second output node; a pair of current switches respectively coupled to the output nodes; and a pair of pull-down switches respectively coupled to control terminals of the current switches.
