Filed:

Jun 6, 2008
Appl. No.:

12/134302

Assignee:

Senomyx, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:

C12N 15/10
C07K 14/705
US Classification:

435 911, 435 78
Abstract:

This invention relates to novel rationale and methods for identifying human and primate taste-specific genes, including genes involved in salty taste perception, especially human salty taste perception, but also genes involved in sweet, bitter, umami, and sour taste perception, and genes involved in other taste cell or taste receptor related activities such as digestive function and digestive related diseases, taste cell turnover, immunoregulation of the oral and digestive tract, and metabolic regulation such as in diabetes and obesity, the genes identified using these methods, and assays for identifying taste modulators (enhancers or blockers) and potential therapeutics using these genes. These compounds have potential application in modulating (enhancing or blocking) taste perception, especially salty taste perception and as potential therapeutics. In addition, this invention relates to novel methods for identifying taste-specific genes that can be used as markers for different taste cell types, including sweet, bitter, umami, sour, salty, and other taste cells in mammals as well as assays that measure the activity of the sweet, bitter, umami, or sour receptor in the presence of these genes to identify modulators of sweet, bitter, umami, and sour taste and to identify therapeutics especially for treating digestive or metabolic disorders, taste loss, and oral infections. Particularly, the genes identified herein and antibodies or oligos thereto can be used as markers to identify and/or purify specific taste cells e. g.

US Patent:

8369313, Feb 5, 2013
Filed:

Dec 17, 2008
Appl. No.:

12/337375
Inventors:

Min Lu - Freehold NJ, US
Mark Ratcliffe - Oakhurst NJ, US
Assignee:

AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P. - Atlanta GA
International Classification:

H04L 12/66
US Classification:

370352
Abstract:

A method for providing multimedia services to subscriber user equipment (UE) within an IP multimedia subsystem network (IMS) may include configuring the IMS to enable a single UE to fork register and cooperate with multiple serving-call session control functions (S-CSCFs). After obtaining IP connectivity, the single UE signals to register with the IMS and the IMS determines whether the UE is configured to fork register with multiple S-CSCFs. If the UE is configured, the IMS determines which S-CSCFs are eligible for the UE registration and fork registers the UE to multiple S-CSCFs of the eligible S-CSCFs. Consequently, incoming and outgoing calls to/from the UE are routed by the IMS to any of the multiple registered S-CSCFs.

US Patent:

8532700, Sep 10, 2013
Filed:

Dec 1, 2009
Appl. No.:

12/628407
Inventors:

Stephanie P. Parlamas - Colts Neck NJ, US
Christina I. Cacioppo - Freehold NJ, US
Min Lu - Freehold NJ, US
Assignee:

AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P. - Atlanta GA
International Classification:

H04M 1/00
H04B 1/38
US Classification:

4555521, 455557
Abstract:

A method and apparatus for initiating a call are disclosed. For example, the method receives via a tri-mode mobile endpoint device a request for initiating a call and a selection of an access mode from a user, wherein the tri-mode mobile endpoint device is capable of operating in a cellular mode, a Wi-Fi mode, and a wire-based mode for initiating the call. The method then provides the call using the selection of the access mode.

US Patent:

8533340, Sep 10, 2013
Filed:

Apr 11, 2007
Appl. No.:

11/786568
Inventors:

Mark Ratcliffe - Oakhurst NJ, US
Gerald L. Hoover - Middletown Township NJ, US
Min Lu - Freehold NJ, US
Assignee:

AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P. - Atlanta GA
International Classification:

G06F 15/16
US Classification:

709227, 709223
Abstract:

Systems and methods provide virtual CSCFs in an IMS system. The Virtual CSCFs may be virtual S-CSCFs or virtual P-CSCFs. A master virtual CSCF may be used to distribute subscriber data and initial filter criteria to the virtual CSCFs in a group. Thus one of multiple servers may be used for processing call sessions for the same subscriber, thereby avoiding overloading a particular CSCF in an IMS system.

US Classification:

370352
Abstract:

Example methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture to provide uniform resource identifier (URI) portability for communication networks are disclosed. A disclosed example method includes receiving a first communication session initiation message identifying a called party, identifying a URI associated with the called party, querying a global URI database based on the URI to identify a domain name associated with a service provider network based on the URI, and sending a second communication session initiation message including the URI to the service provider network via the domain name.
