The signal sequence of nascent preprolactin interacts with the 54-kD protein of the signal recognition particle (SRP54). To identify the domain or site on SRP54 that interacts with the signal sequence we used a photocross-linking approach followed by limited proteolysis and immunoprecipitation using anti-peptide antibodies specific for defined regions of SRP54. We found that the previously iden...

In this lecture we consider direct-sequence spread-spectrum systems. Unlike frequency-hopping, a direct-sequence signal occupies the entire bandwidth continuously. The signal is obtained by starting with a narrowband signal and directly modulating a high bandwidth signal. As with frequency hopping direct-sequence has advantages when the channel contains a jamming like signal. The jamming could ...
