Published: October 2024

PROTEOLYSIS1 (PRT1), an N-recognin of Arabidopsis thaliana, has a specificity for recognizing the N-terminal aromatic hydrophobic residue (Tyr/Phe/Trp) of its substrates, subsequently degrading them through ubiquitylation. Here, we report the complex structures of the ZZ domain of A. thaliana PRT1 (PRT1ZZ) with bulky hydrophobic N-degron peptides. Unlike other ZZ domains, the binding site of PRT1ZZ has a novel structure organized into two hydrophobic regions. The N-terminal aromatic residues of N-degron interact hydrophobically with Ile333 and Phe352 in the flexible loops, which undergo dramatic conformational change. Notably, we also identified a third N-degron residue that participates in the hydrophobic network with N-recognin. Moreover, the ubiquitylation assay of PRT1 using the N-terminal tyrosine-exposed substrate BIG BROTHER showed that the tandem RING organization in PRT1 is critical for its robust activity. Therefore, the current study expands our knowledge of the structural repertoire in the N-degron pathway and provides insights into the regulation of E3 ubiquitin ligases containing tandem RING domains.

Published: October 2024

Aseptic loosening is the primary cause of orthopaedic implant failure. Previous designs for implant coatings failed to follow the physiological process of bone regeneration, leading to inadequate osseointegration at the bone–implant interface. We engineered a novel self-adaptive titanium-based coating (DOPA-P1@P2) by combining a mussel-inspired biomimetic strategy with bioorthogonal click chemistry techniques. Both in vitro and in vivo results confirmed that DOPA-P1@P2 exhibited excellent biocompatibility and effectively enhanced osseointegration. Specifically, the outermost K23 layer of DOPA-P1@P2 promotes M2 macrophage polarization in the first stage of bone regeneration, creating a favourable immune microenvironment. Following the release of K23, the sequential exposure of the K15 and Y5 layers promoted angiogenesis and osteogenesis during the second stage of bone regeneration. In the third stage of bone regeneration, the DOPA-P1@P2 group exhibited a 161% increase in maximal push-out force, a 207% increase in BV/TV, and a remarkable 1409% increase in BIC, compared to the TiO2 control group. In summary, DOPA-P1@P2 effectively promoted bone regeneration through sequential regulation, thus enhancing osseointegration at the bone–implant interface.

This study focuses on exploring the presence and distribution of gold deposits in the Gabal Abu Karahish area, where volcanic and plutonic rocks and structural settings form valid geological environments for mineral exploration due to mineral-bearing hydrothermal activity in tectonized areas. Various tools have been integrated to determine gold potential and availability in this are In addition, for ASTER image processing band ratios 7/6_4/6 and 7/8, radiometric data, field geology, and spectral measurements of the specific rocks were combined to differentiate the alteration zones as promised localities for gold exploration. Several alteration zones of argellic, phyllic, and propylitic alteration types have been developed and localized. They are mainly associated with altered minerals such as chlorite, calcite, kaolinite, sericite, carbonates, and iron oxides. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of ten representative samples from the alteration zones and quartz veins in the meavolcanics and ultramafics revealed that gold is present in all samples at average contents between 0.23 and 0.83 (from a bulk of 50 g of rock powder). These results indicate and suggest promising alteration zones for gold exploration. The study area consists of calc-alkaline metavolcanic rocks and younger Dokhan volcanic rocks. The metavolcanics are overthrusted by slices of serpentinites and talc carbonates, where some listwanite ridges (iron carbonate silica) developed along such contacts. Hornblende gabbros are present in small outcrops to the northeast of Gabal Abu Qarahish. Tonalite and granodiorite rocks are found in several localities, with most outcropsrecorded at Gabal Semna, where younger granite plutons intruded into the metavolcanics and surrounding rocks. The Dokhan volcanic sequence, composed mostly of quartz-feldspar porphyrite and andesite porphyry, is interlayered with siltstone, mudstone, and polymictic conglomerates typical of molasse-type Hammamat sediments.
Fault diagnosis for VSC-HVDC transmission systems using Kalman Filter-based disturbance observers

Published: October 2024

In this article a Kalman Filter-based disturbance observer is proposed for treating the fault detection and isolation problem of the VSC-HVDC transmission system. By proving differential flatness properties for the state-space model of the VSC-HVDC system which consists of an AC/DC converter-(rectifier), a high-voltage DC transmission line and a DC/AC inverter it is confirmed that this system can be transformed into the input-output linearized form and in the canonical Brunovsky form. The effects of model uncertainty and external perturbations are modeled as additive disturbance inputs. Moreover, by considering the disturbance inputs as additional state variables an extended state space description is obtained which is proven to be observable. For the latter state-space model a Kalman Filter-based disturbance observer is designed which is capable of identifying simultaneously both the non-measurable state variables and the disturbance terms. Next, the residuals of the Kalman Filter undergo statistical signal processing which finally enables fault detection and isolation. The sum of the squares of the residuals' sequence weighted by the inverse of the associated covariance matrix is a stochastic variable or "statistical test" which follows the $\chi^2$ distribution. The confidence intervals of the $\chi^2$ distribution allow to define fault thresholds. By comparing the "statistical test" against the fault thresholds one can conclude with a high level of confidence (of the order of 95\% and beyond) the existence of a failure. The disturbance estimates which are provided by the Kalman Filter-based disturbance observer allow also to perform fault isolation.

Authors: Worku Geremew , Adugna Dagnachew
Published: October 2024

Major actors must organize their activities and resources through systems and procedures known as urban governance in order to utilize economic, social, and environmental resources for the benefit of the urban common good. The challenges and implications of metropolitan governance in the context of integrated infrastructure planning within city the regions are the focus of this study. The study examines the institutional, spatial, financial, and governance challenge related aspects of metropolitan regions through surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions that involve stakeholders. Significant voids in formal governance structures, coordination mechanisms, and stakeholder collaboration were identified in the two cities under investigation. Effective municipal governance has been impeded by obstacles such as administrative issues, boundary disputes, and insufficient resource allocation. The federal government's role in providing support, resources, and frameworks to address metropolitan issues is acknowledged, despite these challenges. The study emphasized the significance of proactive strategies, collaboration, and policy interventions in order to improve metropolitan governance and facilitate integrated infrastructure planning for sustainable urban development.
Assessment of the chemical stability of clay materials with different reactive surface areas under varying pH environments: A numerical modeling approach
Authors: Khan Riaz Hossain
Published: October 2024

This study examined the fluid-rock interactions to assess the stability of clay minerals under a subsurface heterogeneous reservoir. Three-dimensional reactive transport simulations were run up to 100 years using a grid representing the Morrow B Sandstone of Farnsworth Unit and parts of the adjacent Morrow Shale layers in the western Anadarko basin, Texas. Six model scenarios were tested where the minimum and maximum reactive surface areas of clay minerals were repeated with the systematically altered formation water pH level from neutral (pH = 7) to highly acidic states (pH = 3). A relative increase in total aqueous concentrations of Na+ and K+ and a lowering of SiO2 (aq) were predicted under a higher acidic environment. The models predicted a continuous dissolution of illite and secondary precipitation of smectite minerals. In contrast the stability of kaolinite temporally varied depending on the size of the reactive surface areas considered for the simulations. This resulted in the largest increase in the net volumetric abundance of smectite compared to the kaolinite and illite minerals over the model domain. The sensitivity to the variations of the formation water pH level and the interaction effects of pH and surface area for the precipitation and dissolution of clay minerals was found to be relatively insignificant.
HOW EQUATED MONTHLY INSTALMENT (EMI) SCHEMES AND BUY NOW, PAY LATER (BNPL) SERVICES FUEL IMPULSIVE BUYING: A CLOSER LOOK AT CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR
Authors: Abdul Razack K P  , Dr. Jayarajan T K
Published: October 2024

An Equated Monthly Instalment (EMI) is a fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. The EMI consists of both the principal amount and the interest on the loan, which is spread over a predetermined period. EMIs are commonly used in home loans, personal loans, and auto loans, where the borrower repays the loan in regular instalments over time. Credit card companies typically offer this facility, but nowadays, it is also available with debit cards. Many banks are now providing a pre-approved credit limit for their debit card holders as well. BNPL stands for "Buy Now, Pay Later". It is a payment option that allows consumers to purchase goods and services and pay for them later, typically with no interest or fees. BNPL schemes offer customers the convenience of paying for purchases over time, without needing a credit card or traditional loan. This payment option has become increasingly popular among consumers, particularly among younger generations, to manage their finances and make larger purchases more affordable. However, it also has potential drawbacks, such as higher spending and risks of missed payments, that should be considered before utilizing this payment option. The objective of this study is to examine the factors that motivate consumers to choose EMI schemes and BNPL services as payment options, and to evaluate their perceived advantages and the risks associated with them. The study primarily relied on primary data collected from 100 samples using convenient sampling, along with secondary sources such as published research reports on BNPL.

Authors: Dr. Shagufta Naj
Published: October 2024

The present paper attempts to serve the close relationship between the agency of gender and culture as mirrored in the fiction of Alice Munro, a Canadian short story writer and a Nobel Laureate of 2013. Through a brief discussion on the cultural construction of gender, the paper also elaborates the marginal positions of women because of the blind practice of gender discrimination. It also attempts to present the situation of the Canadian women who are bounded and tied to the shackles of a community which is conventional and traditional and have a different thinking for the women. This paper also portrays the suppressed role of women in patriarchal society—the practice of subordination of women to men—the women who face social, cultural and psychological predicament at different levels. All the select stories in this paper present the marginalization and subjugation of women in Canadian society.

Authors: Ashley J. McIntyre  , Lysette D. Cohen
Published: October 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic created a social-educational problem in understanding how novice teachers developed self-efficacy through technology amidst distance learning. Exploring the social-educational problem of novice teachers’ liminality and construction of self-efficacy during COVID-19-related school closures is an emerging issue that justifies further research because a gap in research and understanding currently exists regarding this topic. This qualitative study explored how novice teachers developed self-efficacy through technology amidst the liminal first-time experiences of distance learning. To explore this topic, three concepts were used: the theory of self-efficacy through mastery experiences, the theory of liminality, and the theory of innovation. The research questions addressed how novice teachers developed self-efficacy through technology amidst the liminal first-time experiences of distance learning. To collect data for this study, 10 novice teachers in a Pacific Northwestern state were recruited through professional networking to participate in a semi structured interview. Data was analyzed by conducting three rounds of coding and drawing conclusions concerning the research questions. The results of this study affirmed that novice teachers developed self-efficacy via technology in innovative ways amidst COVID-19 school closures. They confirmed that examining the liminal experiences of novice teachers can provide insight into educational improvements for preservice teachers. This study could positively impact social change by better preparing new teachers to use technology innovatively to serve students in the classroom and via digital instruction.

WELFARE AND RURAL WELL-BEING IN POST MAO CHINA (1978-88): A DEBATE
Authors: Rajendra Dayal
Published: October 2024

During the first decade of reform (1978-88) there was an impressive economic growth, change in the output growth pattern, shift in the structure of employment, and rise in the income and consumption level of the peasants. The number of those in absolute poverty declined significantly, though rural income inequality, both regionally and intra regionally, even at the village level increased significantly. In this context the question arises: did the growth of income and output per head due to economic reforms accompany a similarly improved performance with regard to non -income indicators of well -being? Based on available literature on rural reforms in post Mao China, this paper examines the debate on the above question. This question assumes importance because China in the pre-reform period had brought remarkable improvements in living conditions including the expansion of life expectancy, reduction infant mortality and illiteracy even with the slow and low growth in per capita income.  From the Nolan and Sen it emerges that while policy and institutional changes meant for raising economic growth as well as per capita income were remarkably successful, the same instruments, however, undermined the public provisioning of social goods and services and affected the length and quality of' life of peasants in poorer households for whom market medicated access to health services were proving increasingly difficult. But while the pre-reform Maoist period, had strong egalitarian distributive mechanism in place, the welfare standards and quality of services were too low.

TEMPORAL PERSPECTIVES: EXPLORING THE PHILOSOPHICAL DIMENSIONS OF TIME
Authors: Ms. Bijuli Rajiyung
Published: October 2024

Time has a very deep-rooted and multifaceted nature; this research paper makes a profound philosophical analysis of it. It takes into the different theories of space and time, both essential to understanding the basic premise of the subject, dealing with philosophical questions such as whether space or time is the precondition of the being or whether both of these are objective. The paper tends to utilize the integrated approach which thus means that the thoughts of the classical and the contemporary philosopher's discourse are studied. Central to this exploration is an interrogation of the very essence of time itself: Is there anything, which can be called time in our universe? In another way, is there any manner that the perception of reality is fixed or is it more prone to be fuzzy or sometimes both? Thus, this process provides the foundation for a more thorough philosophical methodology of understanding how different philosophical traditions view and reflect on the concept of time and its passing. Through the journey of different cultural and intellectual realms, the paper demonstrates that the different notions of time connect the huge range of the ancient epoch concept of the cyclic mind to that of the modern times thinkers in grips with the complexity of space and time. Appealing to an abundance of philosophical pathways in search of truth, the study’s main topic lies within the scope of temporal epistemology, aiming at the understanding of how people perceive, and interact with time. It bursts off the bubble of temporal paradoxes which concerns the traditional views of time’s flow and continuity. Through this thorough analysis, the paper shows that temporal philosophy exists with deep implications on the notion of what reality is. Due to reflecting on the ontological, epistemological, and experiential elements of time, time can not only increase the philosophical circle but also give ideas that are very important to the fabric of human knowledge and existence.
ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS IN BHUMISUKTAM (ATHARVAVEDA-12/1)
Authors: Md Israfil
Published: October 2024

As we know that, the study of Vedas and understanding its meaning is a vast and complex process. Basically, the main reason for this complexity is the deviation of understanding the meaning of the ancient language. This is why Wiseman gives instructions to study of the Vedas along with the six Vedangas and Purans. There is no denying that as a result of this indication, the study of Vedas has been restricted to one area. In modern times, the poetic forms of various Suktam of the Vedas, Social Consciousness, Spiritual Consciousness, World Consciousness, and Environmental Awareness became the focus of discussion. Today, in the world there are many countries always active in protecting the balance of the environment. Although there was hardly any environmental thought during the Vedic period. Then people were not aware of the environment? In the answer of such question, it can be said that the people of Vedic period did not do anything to pollute the environment. It is also said that they did not think about the environment separately, accepted the environment as a part of their life. As a result, there is no question of environmental pollution. In this regard, it is not right to say that in the Vedic period, people were vigilant about environmental awareness, because they used to live and earn their living in the natural environment and they unconsciously valued and always protected the environment. In the Vedic literature such environmental suktams are, Bristisuktam, Nadisuktam, Vaksuktam and one of the main suktam is Prithivisuktam or Bhumisuktam.

Published: October 2024

Laccase, a polyphenol oxidase enzyme, is prominent for its catalytic potential in oxidizing various aromatic compounds, including the complete decomposition of wood elements. This enzyme is naturally prevalent among plants, insects, microbes, and fungi and is essential for several biotechnological applications due to its high redox potential, notably in dye degradation, wastewater treatment, and soil detoxification. Our study focused on isolating, screening, and increasing laccase production from specifically chosen bacterial and fungal sources. We identified nine bacterial and three fungal strains from various polluted sites and natural environments. These strains were cultivated, with laccase activity measured through ABTS assays for bacteria and GUAIACOL assays for fungi, leading to important findings on enzyme activities. The laccase was further refined using a nutrient medium with added tannic acid and partially purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation. This purified form displayed the capability to decolorize Azo dyes efficiently. Lastly, we evaluated the efficacy of laccase in breaking down dyes and their future use in the decolorization of parchment paper, indicating a promising field of application for this microbial synthesized laccase enzyme.
