20140295431 | METHOD OF ALLELE-SPECIFIC AMPLIFICATION - A method of selectively producing and amplifying a cDNA sequence of a target allele of a gene, wherein the target allele is a mutant allele or is a specific allele of a polymorphic gene, the method comprising: (a) providing a sample comprising an mRNA transcript of the target allele; (b) performing a reverse-transcription reaction to generate a cDNA sequence from the mRNA transcript, and (c) amplifying the cDNA of the target allele; wherein the reverse-transcription reaction is selective for reverse transcription of the mRNA transcript of the target allele over an mRNA transcript of an alternative allele of the same gene. | 10-02-2014 |
20140342368 | DETECTION OF ABL MUTANT BY ALLELE-SPECIFIC AMPLIFICATION - The present invention provides a method of detecting for the presence of a mutation in the ABL gene coding for the ABL T315I mutation, the method comprising: (a) providing a sample comprising an mRNA transcript encoding the ABL T315I mutation; (b) performing a reverse-transcription reaction to generate a cDNA sequence from the mRNA transcript; and (c) amplifying a cDNA sequence generated in step (b); wherein the reverse-transcription reaction in step (b) is selective for reverse transcription of the mRNA transcript encoding the ABL T315I mutation over a corresponding alternative ABL transcript that does not contain the mutation. | 11-20-2014 |

20100173793 | PEPTIDE / PROTEIN IDENTIFICATION USING PHOTOREACTIVE CARRIERS FOR THE IMMOBILISATION OF THE LIGANDS - The invention provides a method of identifying a peptide or protein capable of binding a ligand which comprises: (i) providing a support, the support comprising a photoreactive group; (ii) reacting the photoreactive group with a ligand to attach the ligand to the support and produce a supported ligand; (iii) providing an expression library comprising a plurality of members, each member expressing a different peptide or protein; (iv) screening the expression library to identify one or more peptides or proteins which bind to the ligand; (v) isolating the member or each member of the library which expresses a peptide or protein which binds to the ligand; and (vi) identifying the peptide or protein which binds to the ligand. Supported photo-reactive compounds are disclosed comprising a photo-reactive group attached to a support via a spacer and a dendritic group, the dendritic group comprising attached thereto, optionally via a spacer, at least one further photo-reactive group and/or a second functional group. Compounds comprising photo-reactive groups attached to a support and a protein resistant group attached to the support are also provided, together with kits for carrying out the method of the invention. | 07-08-2010 |

20140046872 | METHOD OF COMBINING DEMOGRAPHY, MONETARY POLICY METRICS, AND FISCAL POLICY METRICS FOR SECURITY SELECTION, WEIGHTING AND ASSET ALLOCATION - A system, method and computer program product may combine metrics, and may use metrics to select or weight an index, select or weight a portfolio of financial objects, or be used to perform asset allocation. Financial and non-financial metrics may be used. Metrics based on accounting data, or other non-price metrics such as, e.g., demography, monetary policy metrics, and/or fiscal policy metrics, may be used. A combination of metrics may be used. Indexes may be built with combinations of metrics other than market capitalization weighting, price weighting or equal weighting. Once built, an index may be used as a basis to purchase securities for a portfolio. Specifically excluded are widely-used capitalization-weighted and price-weighted indexes, in which price of a security contributes in a substantial way to calculation of weight of that security in the index or the portfolio, and equal weighting weighted indexes. Indexes may be constructed to minimize volatility. | 02-13-2014 |

20120090539 | LIQUID INFUSION DEVICE AND METHOD - A device for infusing liquid into material samples includes a container assembly configured to contain multiple material samples submerged in liquid. The material samples have pores containing air or gas. A pressure source and a vacuum source are both operatively connectable to the container assembly and alternately communicable with the container assembly to force the liquid to at least substantially fill the pores. The samples are thus ready for further processing, testing or use. A method of filling pores in material samples with liquid includes supporting multiple material samples within liquid in an airtight container assembly. The method further includes alternately applying a vacuum source and a pressure source to the container assembly, thereby replacing air with liquid in the pores of the material samples. | 04-19-2012 |
