| 20100177600 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF INCREASING BATTERY LIFE OF A TIMEKEEPING DEVICE - Methods and systems of extending battery life of remote battery-operated timekeeping devices by minimizing the number of required synchronizations per unit of time needed to maintain a predetermined accuracy of the devices. The number of synchronizations are minimized by first calculating a time error rate between the remote timekeeping device and a master device over a sample period. Then, a synchronization is delayed and the remote timekeeping device is compensated based on the time error rate. The compensation delays the need for a synchronization yet maintains the predetermined accuracy of the remote timekeeping device. In some embodiments, the remote timekeeping device is compensated and multiple synchronizations are delayed before a new synchronization is necessary to maintain the predetermined accuracy. | 07-15-2010 |

| 20100220983 | INFRARED FURNACE SYSTEM - An infrared furnace system provides for adjusting the amount of time a workpiece spends in a respective section of the furnace while at the same time minimizing the footprint, i.e., the amount of floor space that the furnace uses. Various embodiments allow for optimizing the required thermal duration of each section which then also optimizes the heating and/or cooling profile within each section. Transfer conveyors are provided to transfer a workpiece from one conveyor operating at a first speed to a second conveyor operating at a second speed, different from the first speed in order to prevent damage to the workpiece. Rollers are provided to support the workpiece and to maintain a proper orientation. A heating lamp support assembly provides power to the lamp and facilitates exchange and replacement of the lamp. An air delivery system provides process gas maintained at the correct temperature. An exhaust system provides air flow with improved turnover and reduced noise considerations. Infrared heating lamps are cooled by providing gas flow across the end terminals. The wavelength of light emitted by the heating lamps is adjusting by controlling parameters of the process gas being introduced into a section of the furnace. | 09-02-2010 |

| 20090075379 | MODULATION OF HOMOLOGOUS RECOMBINATION WITH SINGLE STRANDED DNA BINDING PROTEINS - In one aspect of the invention, single stranded DNA binding proteins (SSB) may be used to modulate homologous recombination in mitosis or meiosis. method are provided for modulating homologous recombination comprising transforming a cell with a nucleic acid encoding a single stranded DNA binding protein; and, allowing the cell to undergo mitosis or meiosis. Similarly, methods are provided for modulating homologous recombination comprising transforming a cell with an inhibitor of expression of a dingle stranded DNA binding protein, such as an antisense or co-suppressive nucleic acid; and, allowing the cell to undergo mitosis or meiosis. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090123991 | RETRONS FOR GENE TARGETING - The invention provides methods and nucleic acid constructs that may be used to modify a nucleic acid of interest at a target locus within the genome of a host. In some aspects, the invention contemplates producing in vivo a gene targeting substrate (GTS), which may be comprised of both DNA and RNA components. The gene targeting substrate may comprise a gene targeting nucleotide sequence (GTNS), which is homologous to the target locus, but comprises a sequence modification compared to the target locus. The gene targeting substrate may be produced by reverse transcription of a gene targeting message RNA (gtmRNA). The gene targeting message RNA may be folded for self-priming for reverse transcription by a reverse transcriptase. The gene targeting message RNA may in turn be the product of transcription of a gene targeting construct (GTC) encoding the gene targeting message RNA. The gene targeting construct may for example be a DNA sequence integrated into the genome of the host, or integrated into an extrachromosomal element. Following expression of the gene targeting systems of the invention, hosts may for example be selected having genomic modifications at a target locus that correspond to the sequence modification present on the gene targeting nucleotide sequence. In some embodiments, the structure of retrons may be adapted for use in the gene targeting systems of the invention. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20100088781 | ALTERING CAROTENOID PROFILES IN PLANTS - A method for altering the level of one or more carotenoids in a plant or a tissue within the plant is provided. Method comprises introducing a nucleic acid sequence comprising a regulatory region operatively associated with a silencing nucleotide sequence that reduces or eliminates the expression of a lycopene epsilon cyclase into the plant, and expressing the silencing nucleotide sequence. Expression of the sequence reduces the level of the lycopene epsilon cyclase in the plant or within a tissue of the plant, and results in altering one or more carotenoids. | 04-08-2010 |
