US Patent:

20070077552, Apr 5, 2007

Filed:

Oct 3, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/542564

Inventors:

Michael Hecht - Highland Park NJ, US
Woo Kim - Princeton NJ, US
Christine Wurth - Loerrach, DE

International Classification:

C12Q 1/04
C12Q 1/00

US Classification:

435004000, 435034000

Abstract:

We have developed a high through-put screen capable of isolating inhibitors of polypeptide aggregation, such as Alzheimer's Disease polypeptide Aβ aggregation, or other disease state aggregating proteins, from amidst large libraries of candidate inhibitors. The screen uses a fusion of a polypeptide domain that self-aggregates, such as an Aβ42 domain characteristic of Alzheimer's disease plaques, to a reporter construct, such as Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) or similar fluorescent protein. In the absence of inhibition, the rapid misfolding and aggregation of Aβ42 causes the entire fusion protein to misfold, thereby preventing fluorescence. Compounds that inhibit Aβ42 aggregation enable GFP to fold into its native structure, and can be identified by the resulting fluorescent signal.

International Classification:

H02S 30/10
F16M 13/02

Abstract:

A mounting assembly comprises a reinforcement channel configured to nest around a first base of a first hat-shaped channel wherein the first hat-shaped channel is configured to nest around a second base of a second hat-shaped channel and the second hat-shaped channel is configured to nest around a load distributing channel. The mounting base, the reinforcement channel, the first hat-shaped channel, the second hat-shaped channel and the load distributing channel are configured to be removable with respect to a fastener along the fastener axis. The fastener is received through coaxial apertures located within the mounting base, the reinforcement channel, the first hat-shaped channel, the second hat-shaped channel and the load distributing channel. The channels are of a certain length that is sufficient to add stiffness to an object being supported by the mounting assembly.

Abstract:

Integrated circuits with single core inductors and methods for producing them are provided. Embodiments include forming a trench in a dielectric layer; forming a first metal-oxide hard mask by disposing a metal hard mask and an oxide hard mask over the dielectric layer and in strips in the trench; forming metal line trenches through the first metal-oxide hard mask and into the first dielectric layer on opposite sides of the inductor trench and first vias; filling the first metal line trenches, first vias, and trench; forming another dielectric layer and a second metal-oxide hard mask over the filled trench; forming a second trench through the second metal-oxide hard mask and into the second dielectric layer and second metal line trenches and second vias; and filling the second metal line trenches, second vias, and second trench.
