On the Crystal Chemistry of Inorganic Nitrides: Crystal-Chemical Parameters and Opportunities in the Exploration of Their Compositional Space
Authors: Gagné Olivier Charles
Published: February 2020

The scarcity of nitrogen in Earth’s crust, combined with challenging synthesis, have made inorganic nitrides a relatively-unexplored class of compounds compared to their naturally-abundant oxide counterparts. To facilitate exploration of their compositional space via a priori modeling, and to help a posteriori structure verification not limited to inferring the oxidation state of redox-active cations, we derive a suite of bond-valence parameters and Lewis-acid strength values for 76 cations observed bonding to N3-, and further outline a baseline statistical knowledge of bond lengths for these compounds. We examine structural and electronic effects responsible for the functional properties and anomalous bonding behavior of inorganic nitrides, and identify promising venues for exploring uncharted compositional spaces beyond the reach of high-throughput computational methods. We find that many mechanisms of bond-length variation ubiquitous to oxide and oxysalt compounds (e.g., lone-pair stereoactivity, the Jahn-Teller and pseudo Jahn-Teller effects) are similarly pervasive in inorganic nitrides, and are occasionally observed to result in greater distortion magnitude than their oxide counterparts. We identify inorganic nitrides with multiply-bonded metal ions as a promising venue in heterogeneous catalysis, e.g. in the development of a post-Haber-Bosch process proceeding at milder reaction conditions, thus representing further opportunity in the thriving exploration of the functional properties of this emerging class of materials.
Potential inhibitors against papain-like protease of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) from FDA approved drugs

Published: February 2020

The cases of 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection have been continuously increasing ever since its outbreak in China last December. Currently, there are no approved drugs to treat the infection. In this scenario, there is a need to utilize the existing repertoire of FDA approved drugs to treat the disease. The rational selection of these drugs could be made by testing their ability to inhibit any SARS-CoV-2 proteins essential for viral life-cycle. We chose one such crucial viral protein, the papain-like protease (PLpro), to screen the FDA approved drugs in silico. The homology model of the protease was built based on the SARS-coronavirus PLpro structure, and the drugs were docked in S3/S4 pockets of the active site of the enzyme. In our docking studies, sixteen FDA approved drugs, including chloroquine and formoterol, was found to bind the target enzyme with significant affinity and good geometry, suggesting their potential to be utilized against the virus.
Nanocluster Growth and Coalescence Modulated by Ligands
Authors: Suvlu Dylan , Farshad Mohsen , Rasaiah Jayendran C.
Published: February 2020

We describe a model of nanocluster formation that incorporates competition between ligand adsorption and nanocluster growth. Growth occurs through the addition of a metal-ligand complex and coalescence of nanoclusters. The competition between ligands for binding sites on the nanoclusters and growth of the nanoclusters through coalescence creates interesting growth pathways. The patterns are reminiscent of those observed in the synthesis of gold thiolate nanoclusters. For a particular set of rate coefficients, described herein, we observe the formation of a kinetically stable nanocluster that participates in coalescent growth. This determines the size interval of the resulting nanoclusters in the size distribution. The kinetically stable cluster can be tuned by modifying the functional form of the number of surface sites on the nanoclusters, thereby changing the growth pathway and the final sizes of the clusters.
Functional Gradient Transparent Conducting Oxide Nanowire Arrays as Monophasic Schottky-Barrier Free Memristors for Bipolar Linear Switching
Authors: Herzog Thomas , Weitzel Naomi , Polarz Sebastian
Published: February 2020

One of the fascinating properties of metal-semiconductor Schottky-barriers, which has been observed for some material combinations, is memristive behavior. Memristors are smart, since they can reversibly switch between a low resistance state and a high resistance state. The devices offer a great potential for advanced computing and data storage, including neuromorphic networks and resistive random-access memory. However, as for many other cases, the presence of a real interface (metal - metal oxide) has numerous disadvantages. The realization of interface-free, respectively Schottky-barrier free memristors is highly desirable. The aim of the current paper is the generation of nanowire arrays with each nanorod possessing the same crystal phase (Rutile) and segments only differing in composition. The electric conductivity is realized by segments made of highly-doped antimony tin oxide (ATO) transitioning into pure tin oxide (TO). Complex nanoarchitectures are presented, which include ATO-TO, ATO-TO-ATO nanowires either with a stepwise distribution of antimony or as a graded functional material. The electrical characterization of the materials reveals that the introduction of memristive properties in such structures is possible. The special features observed in voltage-current (IV) curves are correlated to the behavior of mobile oxygen vacancies (VO..) at different values of applied electrical potential.
Mass Spectrometry-Based Identification of Ortho-, Meta- and Paraisomers Using Infrared Ion Spectroscopy

Published: February 2020

Distinguishing positional isomers, such as compounds having different substitution patterns on an aromatic ring, presents a significant challenge for mass spectrometric analyses and is a frequently encountered difficulty in, for example, drug metabolism research. Here, we demonstrate infrared ion spectroscopy (IRIS) as a promising new mass spectrometry-based technique that easily differentiates between positional isomers of disubstituted phenyl-containing compounds. By analyzing different substitution patterns over several sets of isomeric compounds, we show that IRIS produces a highly consistent and distinct pattern of IR bands, especially in the range between 650 and 900 cm-1, that are mostly independent of the specific chemical functionality contained in the substituent group. These patterns are accurately predicted by quantum-chemically computed IR spectra and correspond well with tabulated IR group-frequencies known from conventional absorption spectroscopy. Therefore, we foresee that this method will be generally applicable to disubstituted phenyl-containing compounds and that direct interpretation of experimental IRIS spectra in terms of ortho-, meta- or para-substitution is possible, even without comparison to experimental or computationally predicted reference spectra. Strategies for the analysis of larger compounds having more congested IR spectra as well as of compounds having low (electrospray) ionization efficiencies are presented in order to demonstrate the broad applicability of this methodology.
High-Throughput Analysis of Materials for Chemical Looping Processes
Authors: Singstock Nicholas , Bartel Christopher , Holder Aaron M. , Musgrave Charles B.
Published: February 2020

Chemical looping is a promising approach for improving the energy efficiency of many industrial chemical processes. However, a major limitation of modern chemical looping technologies is the lack of suitable active materials to mediate the involved subreactions. Identification of suitable materials has been historically limited by the scarcity of high-temperature (> 600 °C) thermochemical data to evaluate candidate materials. An accurate thermodynamic approach is demonstrated here to rapidly identify active materials which is applicable to a wide variety of chemical looping chemistries. Application of this analysis to chemical looping combustion correctly classifies 17/17 experimentally studied redox materials by their viability and identifies over 1,300 promising yet previously unstudied active materials. This approach is further demonstrated by analyzing redox pairs for mediating a novel chemical looping process for producing pure SO2 from raw sulfur and air which could provide a more efficient and lower emission route to sulfuric acid. 12 promising redox materials for this process are identified, two of which are supported by previous experimental studies of their individual oxidation and reduction reactions. This approach provides the necessary foundation for connecting process design with high-throughput materials discovery to accelerate the innovation and development of a wide-range of chemical looping technologies.

Published: February 2020

Los Servicios Sociales de Atención Primaria en Aragón nacen en la ciudad de Zaragoza en 1980 y a los pocos años se empiezan a desarrollar también en diferentes poblaciones de las tres provincias aragonesas. Cuando se cumplen cuarenta años de las primeras experiencias se hace necesario el recordar cómo fueron esos inicios y cuál fue el contexto de esa época. Para ello se ha hecho un rastreo bibliográfico y análisis tanto de las diferentes disposiciones legislativas como de las primeras memorias de estos servicios publicadas.

A la vez es necesario destacar y reconocer el papel de las trabajadoras sociales, pues en su mayoría siempre fueron mujeres, que estuvieron al frente desde el primer momento de estos servicios.

Movilidad geográfica de la adolescencia rural española en el cambio de siglo
Authors: Minguijón Pablo Jaime , Gastón Faci Diego , Tomás del Río Eva
Published: February 2020

En las últimas décadas la emigración rural se ha ralentizado en España, aunque en muchas partes del territorio ha continuado el éxodo entre la población más joven, dificultado la supervivencia de muchos municipios y condicionando las expectativas de las nuevas generaciones. El objetivo del estudio trata de conocer la evolución de las expectativas de movilidad geográfica de los adolescentes españoles de entre 13 y 15 años, residentes en entornos rurales, en cuatro etapas distintas entre los años 1997 y 2012, centrándose el análisis en cómo los menores perciben su futuro, cómo piensan construirlo, así como en las dificultades que creen pueden encontrarse. Se trata de conocer sus intereses y preocupaciones, sus deseos y aspiraciones, y los condicionantes sociales y culturales, desde una perspectiva longitudinal.

Se ha diseñado una metodología cualitativa como resultado de la necesidad de aplicar un enfoque inductivo, exploratorio y descriptivo. En concreto, la metodología seguida fue similar a la utilizada por Bernot y Blancard (1953) consistente en el análisis de contenido de redacciones escolares de estudiantes de segundo de ESO (13-15 años), con el siguiente tema: “Cómo ves tu futuro calculando que puedes vivir hasta los 100 años, empezando por el más inmediato y pasando por la juventud, edad adulta y ancianidad”. Se analizaron 872 redacciones, entre las cuatro fases de la investigación, procedentes de más de 100 centros educativos de todo el territorio nacional. Las redacciones fueron realizadas en las clases como una actividad académica más, por encargo del profesorado de los distintos centros, siguiendo las instrucciones metodológicas facilitadas. De la investigación se concluye que la movilidad territorial no se encontraría entre las principales preocupaciones de los adolescentes a lo largo de todo el periodo analizado, pese a que habrían aumentado las perspectivas migratorias; mayor preferencia por una movilidad de corto recorrido en todas las fases del estudio; a partir de 2008 se comienza a contemplar la emigración exterior; o que una parte importante de los menores desea regresar a su lugar de origen una vez finalizada la etapa formativa. El control social habría dejado de ser un factor determinante en la decisión de emigrar, en las indagaciones realizadas a partir de 2007.
Problems in medical translation among professional and non-professional translators: Collocations as a key issue
Authors: Badziński Arkadiusz
Published: February 2020

English is currently the lingua franca in medicine, especially due to the development of new terms that combine the medical field with technical areas. The aim of this study is to compare the problems encountered by professional and non-professional translators (physicians) with special attention paid to collocations. Further valuable observations and comments are also added by the respondents. The paper discusses the key position of collocations in the medical register in which the erroneous use of collocations discredits the paper and the researcher, thus hindering the dissemination of medical knowledge. Additionally, some other problematic issues are also highlighted. The author postulates further collocation-related empirical studies with attention paid to the phenomena of both teaching collocations and assessing the competence of the translator in the domain of collocations.
Dialectically-marked proper nouns in audiovisual translation: An analysis of the English subtitles to "The Peasants"
Authors: Dudek Anna
Published: February 2020

The aim of this article is to analyze translation techniques used in the film translation of dialectically-marked proper names. Undoubtedly, the issue of rendering dialectical varieties constitutes one of the greatest challenges in interlingual translation. The applicable translation techniques, however, are frequently in conflict with the rules of reducing audiovisual target text to an indispensable minimum. The research material consists of the English subtitles to The Peasants (Chłopi, dir. Jan Rybkowski, Telewizja Polska S.A. 1973; English translation by Agata Deka, PolArt Video 2006). This article outlines the main theoretical approaches and translation techniques which can be used in the cases of dialects, proper names, and audiovisual translation. The research part aims at verifying the hypothesis’s claim that these translation methods which require implementation of more complex procedures than, for instance, omission (e.g. replacing the source language dialect with a target text variation) are not applicable in the case of audiovisual translation. The conclusion consists of the outline of the main translation tendencies as well as the verification of the aforementioned hypothesis.
Comparative Study of Underground Pit Grain Storage System through Use of Different Lining Materials
Authors: Girma Anbesse , Ali Elias
Published: February 2020

Sorghum occupies highest area of cultivation in East and West Hararghe of Ethiopia. Farmers in the area are poor and do not afford an advanced storage systems. Hence, storage is done mainly in underground pit storage with different lining materials. This study was therefore aimed at evaluating those different lining materials in maintaining the sorghum quality. Four different lining materials which are commonly used by the farmers (mud/straw/cow dung mixture (3:3:1 ratio), plastic (thick rubberized canvas), chaff and cement) were used. Ten pits (duplicated), flask shaped with 1 m depth and 1 m diameter with a capacity of about two quintals (200 kg) were constructed. The finding in this comparative study is that, among all underlining materials, underground pit with plastic lining material was good barrier compared to all linings. Moisture migration to the grain increased in each month in all lining materials and the least was recorded in plastic lining. Germination capacity and thousand grain weight were reduced significantly in each material except plastic lining which showed the least change compared to the others. Fungi infestation was also increased in all underground pits with different lining materials. However, lower infestation was found in plastic and cement linings. Based on the quality measurements, plastic lining showed the least change in grain quality compared to the others. It can be concluded that, since the farmers can’t afford advanced storage system, it can be recommended to use plastic lining material among the existing lining materials.
The Facets of the Enlightenment Movement from a Libertarian Perspective:
Authors: Reimers Patrick
Published: February 2020

This paper pretends to explain the origins of the French Revolution, in particular in regards to its connection with the main proponents of the French Enlightenment. It argues that the Enlightenment movement was rather heterogeneous, shaped by many different thinkers with often incompatible views. The merits of Jean Jacques Rousseau in regards to conservation and education are described, while equivalently criticizing his rather collectivist ideas and his disputable views on women. It is argued that even if during the main period of the Enlightenment movement, liberal thinkers such as Montesquieu, Turgot, Lafayette and Condorcet had defined political theories based on individual freedom and competition, they were possibly “too far ahead of times” to significantly shape the French Revolution. Independently from the positive aspects of the Enlightenment movement, the actual French Revolution was often collectivist and nationalist and led to a violent phase – the ‘Reign of Terror’. Thus, this analysis allows us to understand the complexity and diversity of the Enlightenment movement and its relation to the actual French Revolution. Consequently, the revolution’s collectivist, nationalist and violent phase must be seen critically, also showing us that the implementation of democratic processes can bear risks, as the ‘majority rule’ can differ quite significantly to the concept of the ‘Rule of Law’.

Published: February 2020

In recent years, the rise of human fungal infections has been associated to lack of early diagnosis, uneffective antifungal therapies and vaccines. Disturbance in immune homeostasis, which can be caused by medical interventions and immunosuppression induced by disease, are well known as risk factors for these pathologies. Cells of the innate immune system are equipped with surface and cytoplasmic receptors for recognition of microorganisms called pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). PRRs recognize specific pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that are crucial for the activation and killing of pathogenic fungi by immune system.  This review will outline the PRRs and cells required for effective antifungal immunity, with a special focus on the major antifungal cytokine IL-17. Finally, naturally occurring human mutations involved in the increased susceptibility to fungal infections are also discussed

Published: February 2020

Optimization of drip irrigation regimes for intensive apple orchards is the basis of agrotechnology for their cultivation with fruit yields exceeding 50 t/ha. There are many different ways of controlling irrigation regimes that enable to use individually or comprehensively relevant instruments, tools, computer programs, mathematical models etc. Using any approach is based on data on weather and soil conditions, biological and varietal characteristics of crop water consumption. The purpose of the research was to adapt the calculated method of determining the total water consumption (ETs) "Penman-Monteith" when using drip irrigation for apple trees on the rootstock M-9 in the conditions of the Steppe of Ukraine. The scientific-methodological approaches set out in the FAO 56 guidance were used when conducting the experiment. In the experiments, CropWat 8.0 computer program and iMetos digital weather station were used as tools to obtain data and calculate water consumption. When using the Penman – Monteith method, 6–10 vegetation irrigations with the rates of 620–700 m3/ha were conducted during the study period. With that the average yield of marketable fruits was 32.9 t/ha, and the average coefficient of irrigation efficiency was 31.5 m3/t. In production conditions, the actual total water consumption of apple trees when using the Penman-Monteith method was established as 3269.7 m3/ha, the reference water consumption (ETo) for this soil and climate zone during the growing season. In all phases of tree development, the ratio of apple coefficients (Kc) - typical one based on the recommendations of FAO 56 and calculated one, obtained based on the experimental data was established. A comparison of the actual value of the ETc and the calculated one using apple Kc according to the FAO 56 guidance was done. It is recommended that when determining the parameters of the drip irrigation regimes for apple trees on the rootstock M-9 in the Steppe of Ukraine when using CropWat 8.0 computer program and iMetos digital weather station to use the adjusted values ​​of Kc.

Published: February 2020

Actuality of the problem. Irrigation has become a determining factor in the formation of bioproduction processes of new agricultural crop varieties and hybrids due to global climate change for all soil-climatic zones of Ukraine. Moreover, irrigation efficiency is determined to a significant degree by the reliability of the soil water-physical properties. The purpose of comprehensive hydrophysical studies was to determine the basic soil water-physical properties and constants necessary to create favorable soil regimes of reclaimed lands, and to do the mathematical modeling of the soil water regime. Complex laboratory hydrophysical tests of soil samples of undisturbed structure make it possible to determine hydrophysical functions for each soil sample: water holding capacity, water conductivity and water-physical constants of full and minimum moisture capacity, wilting moisture and maximum hygroscopic moisture, which can be determined on the same soil sample located on the same soil desorption curve from full moisture capacity to maximum hygroscopic humidity. The primary saturation of the soil sample under vacuum to full moisture capacity provides a single curve of water retention capacity taking into account structural macroporosity, which is the main feature of this technique. The resulting capillary hysteresis loop has the algorithm: fast nonequilibrium desorption from full moisture capacity and slow equilibrium sorption enables to build a differential curve of the distribution of pore volume over radii, characterizing the structure of the soil pore space. These structural characteristics are sensitive to soil processes, which determine the direction of epigenetic changes in the structure of the soil pore space and the direction of evolution of the soil matrix. The threshold of structural soil macroporosity formation is established from the loop of capillary hysteresis by the ratio of meniscus radii exceeding . Conclusions. The proposed system of soil laboratory diagnostics has advantages over the existing diagnostic methods and significantly increases the information content of complex hydrophysical tests, provides qualitatively new information on soils and provides mathematical modeling with the necessary parameters of mass transfer processes in moisture-saturated soils of the aeration zone.

Published: February 2020

Model gelombang menjadi komponen utama dalam memberikan informasi prediksi gelombang dewasa ini. Hal ini terjadi akibat terbatasnya pengamatan in-situ yang dilakukan untuk mengamati lautan secara umum. Model prakiraan gelombang telah mengalami evolusi, mulai dari generasi pertama dan berkembang sampai model generasi tiga. Model generasi ketiga merupakan penyempurnaan dari model gelombang sebelumnya dimana model ini merupakan sebuah model spektral lengkap dengan representasi eksplisit pada proses fisik yang relevan terhadap evolusi gelombang dan yang memberikan gambaran dua dimensi dari laut secara lengkap. Salah satu model generasi ketiga ini adalah WAVEWATCH-III. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan evaluasi model WAVEWATCH-III di Manokwari, Saumlaki, Selat Bangka dan Surabaya untuk mengetahui performanya. Model diseting pada dua domain, domain global dan wilayah Indonesia dengan resolusi 0,5° dan 0,125° dan dirunning selama setahun (2012). Luaran model kemudian dibandingkan dengan data AVISO serta data observasi insitu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan korelasi antara luaran model dengan data AVISO di 4 titik yang dianalisa umumnya nilainya dibawah 0,5. Hanya di beberapa tempat yang menunjukkan korelasi yang besar diantaranya adalah Saumlaki dan Manokwari. Kedua lokasi ini terletak pada laut yang relatif terbuka, hal ini menunjukkan bahwa pada lokasi yang relatif terbuka AVISO dapat digunakan untuk verifikasi model, akan tetapi pada perairan yang sempit (Surabaya dan Bangka) AVISO kurang baik untuk verifikasi model. Terdapat bias antara luaran model dengan observasi insitu yang berada di pantai yang dangkal sehingga model tidak dapat merepresentasikan kondisi faktual dengan sempurna. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa dengan resolusi 0,5° dan 0,125° model belum dapat digunakan untuk verifikasi gelombang di daerah pantai. Dari perbandingan antara observasi insitu dengan luaran model pada dua resolusi yang berbeda menunjukkan bahwa pada resolusi yang lebih tinggi, luaran model menunjukkan hasil yang lebih mendekati observasinya.
Emerging Culture and Cultural capital: The cases of yoga, meditation and vegetarianism in the U.K.
Authors: Gemar Adam
Published: February 2020

Yoga and meditation have experienced a boom in Western appropriation in recent decades and consistently grow more culturally ubiquitous. Likewise, rates of vegetarianism increase every year. However, little scholarly work has been produced around these newer forms upon the cultural landscape. This paper seeks to remedy this fact. It aims to advance understandings as to the patterns of consumption regarding newer cultural forms, with yoga, meditation, and vegetarianism as case studies. Proceeding with the U.K. as the field of study, this paper presents an original national survey. It performs a multiple correspondence analysis and multinomial logistic regressions with the survey data to accomplish a topographical mapping and bivariate analysis of consumption and interaction with these cultural forms. Through this empirical and statistical analysis, it asserts that objectified cultural capital is still important for the social distinction associated with participation patterns of these forms. These emerging forms of culture are thus rarefied in a way that more closely resembles traditionally highbrow cultural forms.

COVID-19, a novel pathogenic coronavirus (2019-nCoV, now named SARS-CoV2) induced disease, emerged in China and spread globally rapidly. 2019-nCoV(SARS-CoV2) shares above 85% identity in genome with SARS-CoV. Patients infected by 2019-nCoV and SARS-CoV also reveal similar clinical characteristics. Here we compare the clinical and pathological features between patients of COVID-19 and SARS respectively. Conclusions:1. Older patients refer to a higher case fatality rate (CFR) than young. 2. Males show a higher CFR than females, and this difference may converge as age increase.3.COVID-19 may cause a kidney and testis damage. Combined with higher CFR in males, genitourinary system disorder caused by the COVID-19 needs to be cautioned.4. It is critical to control the cytokine release syndrome(CRS) in COVID-19. IL-6, IL-10 and their receptors may be the drugable target.5. Consistently to decrease of CD4+T and CD8+T cells, spleen damage, and lymphocyte depletion may exist inCOVID-19 patients. Approaches for T cell rescued may be considered. 6. Compared with SARS-CoV’s Spike protein, 2019-nCoV(SARS-CoV2) Spike protein present a higher binding affinity to ACE2, which suggests that soluble ACE2 might be a potential candidate for COVID-19 treatment. Other receptors, such as L-SIGN and DC-SIGN, need to be investigated in the future.

Determining response or remission status in body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) usually requires a lengthy interview with a trained clinician. This study sought to establish empirically derived cut-offs to define treatment response and remission in BDD using a brief self-reported instrument, the Appearance Anxiety Inventory (AAI). Results from three clinical trials of BDD were pooled to create a sample of 123 individuals who had received cognitive behaviour therapy for BDD, delivered via the internet. The AAI was compared to gold-standard criteria for response and remission in BDD, based on the clinician-administered Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale, modified for BDD (BDD-YBOCS), and evaluated using signal detection analysis. The results showed that a ≥40% reduction on the AAI best corresponded to treatment response, with a sensitivity of 0.71 and a specificity of 0.84. A score ≤13 at post-treatment was the optimal cut-off in determining full or partial remission from BDD, with a sensitivity of 0.75 and a specificity of 0.88. These findings provide benchmarks for using the AAI in BDD treatment evaluation when resource-intensive measures administered by clinicians are not feasible.

Currently, little is known about the association between assessment intensity, burden, data quantity, and data quality in experience sampling method (ESM) studies. Researchers therefore have insufficient information to make informed decisions about the design of their ESM study. Our aim was to investigate the effects of different sampling frequencies and questionnaire lengths on burden, compliance, and careless responding.Students (n = 164) received either a 30- or 60-item questionnaire three, six, or nine times per day for 14 days. Preregistered multilevel regression analyses and ANOVAs were used to analyze the effect of design condition on momentary outcomes, changes in those outcomes over time, and retrospective outcomes.Our findings offer support for increased burden and compromised data quantity and quality with longer questionnaires, but not with increased sampling frequency. We therefore advise against the use of long ESM questionnaires, while high sampling frequencies do not seem to be associated with negative consequences.

Cultural literacy is important because of the diversity of Indonesian culture, and the challenges of globalization and the digital revolution. Cultural literacy can be done through various media and institutions, but there are not many institutions and media care to this cultural literacy. Yogyakarta Palace is one of the traditional institutions that practice cultural literacy through digital media. This article aims to identify the types of digital media that are used as a vehicle for literacy practices in Islamic religious culture, describe the Islamic religious culture that is displayed and interpret aspects of Islamic religious teachings of the religious culture. In addition, this article discusses the negotiation and adaptation of the Yogyakarta Palace in the practice of literacy through digital media. This study found that, in addition to education about the treasures of Islamic religious culture, the practice of literacy of Islamic religious culture through digital media carried out by the Yogyakarta Palace also showed negotiations and adaptations. Negotiations and adaptations arise in two ways. The first is negotiation and adaptation of tradition with digital technology, namely the Yogyakarta Palace presenting traditional culture (including religious culture) in digital space. Second, negotiation and adaptation of Javanese Islamic identity to the understanding of Islam that does not accept cultural elements in practicing Islamic teachings.Keywords: Literacy practice, religious cultural literacy, digital media, Yogyakarta Palace Literasi budaya penting karena keragaman budaya Indonesia serta tantangan globalisasi dan revolusi digital. Literasi budaya dapat dilakukan melalui berbagai media dan institusi, tetapi tidak banyak institusi dan media yang memperhatikan literasi budaya ini. Keraton Yogyakarta adalah salah satu institusi tradisional yang mempraktikkan literasi budaya melalui media digital. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi jenis-jenis media digital yang digunakan sebagai wahana praktik literasi dalam budaya agama Islam, menggambarkan budaya agama Islam yang ditampilkan dan menafsirkan aspek-aspek ajaran agama Islam dari budaya agama. Selain itu, artikel ini membahas negosiasi dan adaptasi Keraton Yogyakarta dalam praktik literasi melalui media digital. Studi ini menemukan bahwa, selain pendidikan tentang khazanah budaya agama Islam, praktik literasi budaya agama Islam melalui media digital yang dilakukan oleh Istana Yogyakarta juga menunjukkan negosiasi dan adaptasi. Negosiasi dan adaptasi muncul dalam dua cara. Pertama adalah negosiasi dan adaptasi tradisi dengan teknologi digital, yaitu Keraton Yogyakarta menghadirkan budaya tradisional (termasuk budaya agama) di ruang digital. Kedua, nego­siasi dan adaptasi identitas Islam Jawa dengan pemahaman Islam yang tidak menerima unsur budaya dalam mempraktikkan ajaran Islam.Kata Kunci: Praktik literasi, literasi budaya keagamaan, media digital, Keraton Yogyakarta
