| 20100267072 | Formation/Elongation of Axon by Inhibiting the Expression or Function of Singar and Application to Nerve Regeneration - Singar is identified as a novel molecule, whose expression is varied before and after the polarization of a nerve cell, and occurs in the tip of an elongating axon, called a growth cone, which is important for the formation or elongation of an axon. Singar is expressed specifically in the brain and the amount of Singar expression is largely increased in an individual during periods where the formation of axons is increased. It is observed that Singar is highly enriched in the growth cone at the tip of an axon. When the expression of Singar is inhibited in nerve cells in culture, the formation of multiple axons is induced. Thus, the inhibition of Singar can induce axon formation. Therefore, by inhibiting the expression or activity of Singar, it becomes possible to induce or promote the formation or elongation of an axon in a nerve cell. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20090317304 | Pipette Core Member, Pipette, and Pipette Device - A pipette core member is used in a pipette for sampling a sample. This pipette core member includes: a pump body including a reservoir communicated with one suction/discharge port of an electroosmotic flow pump, the electroosmotic flow pump and the reservoir being integrally formed; and a capillary connected to the electroosmotic flow pump and communicated with the other suction/discharge port of the electroosmotic flow pump. The capillary is secured to the pump body. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20090258022 | ANTIBODIES TO BRAIN SPECIFIC MEMBRANE PROTEIN - A novel gene apparently encoding a transmembrane glycoprotein has been successfully isolated by constructing a cDNA library of 4 kb or above in size from mRNA expressed in human adult brain and analyzing the structures of the cDNAs contained within said library by the shotgun method. The novel gene shows brain-specific expression and the protein encoded by said gene has a typical PDZ binding motif. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090158472 | TRANSFORMANT PLANT - A transformant plant transformed with an expression vector, the expression vector including a nucleotide sequence encoding a first polypeptide which has thermophilic endo-1,4-beta-glucanase activity, so that the polypeptide is capable of being expressed in a host cell of the transformant plant. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20080206775 | Method of Amplifying Nucleic Acids, Reagent Kit for Amplifying Nucleic Acids, Method of Detecting Single Nucleotide Polymorphism, and Reagent Kit for Detecting Single Nucleotide Polymorphism - An object of the present invention is to provide a nucleic acid amplification method for amplifying a desired nucleic acid while suppressing amplification of byproducts in a PCR reaction, a reagent kit used for nucleic acid amplification, a method of detecting single nucleotide polymorphism to detect single nucleotide polymorphism by utilizing that amplification of byproducts is suppressed in a PCR reaction, and a reagent kit used for detecting single nucleotide polymorphism. The method of amplifying nucleic acids by PCR is characterized by admixing in a reaction solution, a homologous recombinant protein which contains at least one of a RecA protein derived from | 08-28-2008 |
