Documentary Support for Preclinical Studies in vivo in Accordance with the Principles of Good Laboratory Practice
Authors: Khodko S. V. , Makarova M. N. , Makarov V. G.
Published: February 2025

INTRODUCTION. Currently, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) lacks guidelines for documenting preclinical studies. At the same time, proper registration of raw data is necessary to confirm the quality of the preclinical results obtained.

AIM. This study aimed at introducing a documentation procedure for preclinical studies that would cover documents from the initial study application to the final report and provide for preclinical data transfer to the marketing authorisation dossier.

MATERIALS AND METHODS. The authors opted for information analysis as the method of research. All recommendations for documenting preclinical studies were formulated in accordance with the EAEU Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) requirements applicable to the medicinal product lifecycle and the work of preclinical study sites using experimental animals.

RESULTS. The general EAEU recommendations for the conduct of animal studies are not sufficient to achieve adequate quality of preclinical studies. This article proposes a procedure for complete documentation of preclinical studies, with all documents following the documentation requirements of the EAEU GLP for each study stage. When developing the necessary forms and documents, each study site should operate under its own quality management system and consider the preclinical study specifics on a case-by-case basis. The preparation of any given document should ensure compliance with the GLP principles and guarantee the completeness and integrity of the data obtained.

CONCLUSIONS. Study sites can implement the proposed documentation procedure to design and conduct preclinical studies in accordance with the regulatory requirements that determine the role and responsibilities of the study director and the conduct of inspections by the quality assurance unit.

In this paper, the phase mechanism of broadband wide-angle reduction of the radar cross-section (RCS), based on the use of non-absorbing Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) metasurfaces (MS) with the generation of orbital angular momentum (OAM) and a combination of different phase profiles is studied. Unit cells of the MS contain a thin shielded single-layer substrate and meta-particles in the form of perforated rectangular patches with a coded rotation angle. The aim of the work is to compare the scattering characteristics and the efficiency of scattered field cancellation of structural elements (modules) of the MS, consisting of the same number of meta-particles, but having different PB phase profiles. The scattering characteristics of the MS modules are studied using HFSS (finite element method) on a co- and cross-polarization in the case of irradiation with a normally incident left circular polarized plane wave. The simulation showed that the scattering patterns of the co-polarized field of the MS in all these cases have a funnel-shaped vortex character with a helical spiral phase front and OAM. The generation of OAM significantly cancelles the backscattering of the co-polarized field. The combination of OAM profiles and parabolic profiles increases the diffusion of broadband scattering, implements a wider-angle scattering of the resulting field, which is important for RCS reduction. Therefore, hybrid Pancharatnam-Berry MSs and combined hybrid MSs were designed and their scattering characteristics were studied. Hybrid MSs consist of two subblocks of different shapes, each of which is a fragment of antiphase OAM modules of a square shape. Combined hybrid MSs are constructed by superimposing a modified parabolic profile on the OAM profiles of the subblocks of the hybrid MSs. The validity of the holographic approach underlying the design of hybrid MSs is demonstrated, according to which a fragment (part) of a metasurface preserves the phase properties of the object wave of the entire metasurface. From a comparison of diffusion and wave cancellation by hybrid and combined hybrid metasurfaces it follows that combined hybrid MSs implement a wider-angle diffuse vortex funnel-shaped scattering of a co-polarized field with an angle of intense side lobes of up to 88°, whereas hybrid MFs of the same size have a funnel opening angle of about 55°.

Authors: Gao Qian , Bai Mingjian , Qi Tianqi , Zhai Jing , Song Yan , Zhang Weijie , Liang Guowei
Published: February 2025

Background: Vitamin D (VD) and gut microbiota (GM) are important variables in pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients with bloodstream infections (BSI). Both VD and GM play significant roles in immune regulation and in maintaining intestinal barrier function. Methods: This prospective case-control study included 48 consecutive pediatric patients who underwent HSCT, as well as 20 healthy children from the community. Plasma samples were collected pre- and post-HSCT, together with post-HSCT fecal samples. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) were measured using chemiluminescence and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. GM was analyzed by 16S rDNA next generation sequencing. Results: The incidence of BSI in pediatric HSCT recipients was 33.3% (16/48). No significant differences in serum 25(OH)D or 1,25(OH)2D3 levels were observed between the BSI and non-BSI groups either before or after transplantation, or with the healthy control group. The α-diversity of GM in BSI and non-BSI patients was significantly lower than in healthy subjects. Proteobacteria were significantly more abundant in BSI patients than in non-BSI patients (p = 0.0434) or healthy controls (p = 0.0193). Pediatric HSCT patients showed significantly higher levels of Staphylococcus (p < 0.001), Pseudomonas (p < 0.001), Enterococcus (p < 0.001), Clostridium innocuum (p = 0.0175) and Enterobacter (p = 0.0394) compared to the controls, whereas the levels of Firmicutes (p = 0.009), Actinobacteria (p < 0.001), Bifidobacterium (p < 0.001) and Faecalibacterium (p < 0.001) were significantly lower. β-diversity analysis revealed significant population differences between the three groups. Conclusions: These results indicate there is no practical value in monitoring VD in HSCT patients. During HSCT and BSI, the GM experiences a loss of probiotics and an increase in potential pathogens.
Revisiting Text Readability and Processing Effort in L2 Reading: Evidence From Bayesian Modeling of Eye-Tracking Data
Authors: Nahatame Shingo , Yamaguchi Kazuhiro
Published: February 2025

Studies have explored the relationship between text readability and processing effort in L2 reading—as evidenced by eye movements. However, these studies generally relied on short texts, raising concerns about the validity of the analyzed data. This study reexamined these relationships using open-source eye-tracking data from L2 English learners who read longer passages (those over 200 words). The passages were analyzed for different readability indices and various linguistic features, which were subsequently used to predict some passage-level eye-tracking measures. Bayesian modeling revealed that complex linguistic features, primarily lexical features, play a significant role in predicting these measures. However, the benefits of using these features were not much greater than those of using readability indices or simple linguistic features, such as word and sentence length. This study concludes that simple linguistic features can be effective predictors of processing effort in L2 text reading, considering their interpretability and low computational cost.

The Experience Sampling Method (ESM) is increasingly used by researchers from various disciplines to answer novel questions about individuals’ daily lives. Measurement best practices have long been overlooked in ESM research, and recent reviews show that item quality is often not reported in ESM studies. The absence of information about item quality may partly be explained by the lack of consensus on how ESM item quality should be evaluated. As part of the ESM Item Repository project (esmitemrepository.com) — an international open science initiative that collects ESM items in an open item bank and evaluates their quality — we brought together 42 international ESM experts to develop an ESM item quality assessment tool. In four Delphi phases, experts suggested 57 item quality criteria, rated the criteria, provided arguments for and against the criteria, and rated the criteria again, considering reflections from other experts. The result of the Delphi process is ESM-Q: A quality assessment tool consisting of 10 core criteria, as well as an additional 15 supplementary criteria, to be used depending on the type of items being rated and the availability of supplementary information. The criteria cover topics ranging from construct validity to the optimal wording of items. ESM-Q can aid ESM researchers in selecting existing ESM items, developing new high-quality ESM items, and evaluating the quality of ESM items in systematic reviews. Expert reflections also highlight open research questions surrounding ESM item design that form a research agenda for ESM measurement.
Modality-Specific Abstraction in Event Perception
Authors: Aydın Tolgahan , Hamaloğlu Simge , Nolasco Sarah , Said Nadia , Levin Daniel , Huff Markus
Published: February 2025

Dynamic events can be perceived at different levels of granularity, with coarser contexts (e.g., “morning routine”) requiring more conceptual integration than finer contexts (e.g., “having breakfast”). We investigated whether this increased integration yields more abstract mental representations (i.e., fewer perceptual details) across three experiments. In these experiments, participants encoded events (presented via text or video) in coarse- or fine-grained contexts and then matched these events to corresponding stimuli. Our results indicated that coarse context consistently took longer to process, which is consistent with higher integration demands. Participants were also faster when encoding and test modalities matched (suggesting modality-specific processing) and when the test modality was video (reflecting slower reading times in text). Crucially, we found no interaction between context grain and encoding or test modalities. Contrary to the expectation that coarser contexts would produce more amodal mental representations, participants showed no coarse-grain cross-modal advantage in recognizing events. We propose that the contents of everyday events might be abstracted similarly within mental representations for both fine and coarse contexts. Furthermore, our results provide evidence for amodal representations when the environment is unpredictable. That is, participants transformed their mental representations into both verbally and visually compatible formats, regardless of the original encoding modality.
Hidden Synergy: Hong Kong’s Role in the Development of Science and Technology in Chinese Higher Education
Authors: Zhou Yisu , SHEN Yang , Yao Xinyue
Published: February 2025

This paper examines the rapid growth of China’s science and technology (S&T) sector within the broader context of higher education, focusing on the often-overlooked role of Hong Kong in this transformation. While conventional explanations emphasize China’s relationship with the United States, this study argues that Hong Kong has played a crucial, yet underappreciated, role in advancing China’s higher education and S&T capabilities. Despite its reputation as a finance-driven city, Hong Kong has developed a robust academic and scientific community that fostered close collaborations with mainland institutions. In the 1990s, as Hong Kong’s research doctoral programs were gaining momentum, mainland students sought high-quality advanced training, and members of the overseas Chinese academic diaspora returned to join Hong Kong universities. This cross-border collaboration thrived despite cultural and ideological differences, combining the mainland’s motivated talent pool with Hong Kong’s free academic environment. Using a comprehensive dataset from the Web of Science, institutional archives, university leader biographies, and PhD dissertation records from Hong Kong’s top universities, this paper provides both quantitative and qualitative analyses of the historical collaboration between Hong Kong and mainland China. The findings reveal that this relationship was evolutionary, initiated by forward-thinking educators long before formal mechanisms were in place, and was instrumental in China’s rise to global prominence in higher education and S&T. By revisiting this underexplored dimension of China’s educational development, this paper offers a new understanding of the forces behind the country’s remarkable achievements in higher education and scientific research.

Published: February 2025

Corporate social responsibility lies in its ability to strengthen brand value, leading to increased customer trust, competitive advantage, and sustainable financial performance over time. Corporate social responsibility strengthens brand value by demonstrating a company's commitment to ethical practices, social welfare, and environmental sustainability, which enhances its reputation and customer loyalty. This study aims to investigate how brand value impacts the relationship between corporate social responsibility and sustainable financial performance in Nepalese commercial banks. To accomplish this objective, data were collected from 252 respondents using a structured questionnaire, which was distributed via a convenience sampling method. The participants consisted of employees at managerial and officer level employees from various commercial banks. Data analysis was conducted using Process Macro 4, applying a 95% confidence interval and 5,000 bootstrapping samples. The findings reveal that brand value serves as a complete mediator in the relationship between corporate social responsibility and sustainable financial performance. This study demonstrates that organizations that are investing in corporate social responsibility play a pivotal role in enhancing brand value by demonstrating the organizational commitment to social and environmental well-being. Implementing corporate social responsibility initiatives can enhance sustainable financial performance by strengthening brand value, which fosters customer trust and loyalty, ultimately supporting long-term profitability and resilience.

Authors: Khandaker Nadim Reza , Rahman Mohammad Moshiur , Rafiq Sahil
Published: February 2025

The arsenic contamination of groundwater in Bangladesh, first detected in 1993, remains a significant public health crisis, affecting millions of people. Despite decades of mitigation efforts, including interventions from the government, international agencies, and NGOs, arsenic contamination persists, particularly in rural areas. The crisis, which has led to chronic arsenic poisoning and various health issues, calls for more effective, sustainable solutions. This paper reviews the current state of arsenic contamination in Bangladesh, highlighting the complex hydrogeological conditions and the demographic impact of this issue. The approach focuses on the use of accessible arsenic testing kits, responsible utilization of deep arsenic-free aquifers, and affordable, locally manufactured water treatment technologies. This strategy aims to empower local stakeholders and provide self-reliant, scalable solutions to mitigate arsenic exposure, promoting health and sustainability in rural communities. The proposed solutions are designed to be adaptable to other arsenic-affected regions in South Asia, offering a model for addressing the arsenic crisis in resource-constrained environments.
Significance of Comprehensive Studies for Sustainable Infrastructure Development of Nepal
Authors: Shrestha Reetu , Chaudhary Deepak
Published: February 2025

This paper discusses the importance of comprehensive studies for sustainable infrastructure development through a systematic review and comparison with past development cases in Nepal. Nepal needs an expanded infrastructure network to foster economic growth by addressing its current infrastructure deficits. However, it is also essential to maintain a balance among social, economic, and environmental considerations. Sustainable infrastructure integrates environmental preservation, financial and economic viability, and social equity, which is critical for long-term progress. The absence of comprehensive planning-based studies on infrastructure projects has led to significant failures, delays, and inefficient use of resources. The practices of comprehensive planning involve infrastructure development studies, including feasibility studies, detailed designs, and specialized analyses—such as climate data, topography, geology, and socio-economic impacts, financial and economic analysis, and risk analysis—to ensure sustainability. By examining several Nepalese projects, this paper highlights the consequences of inadequate study and offers insights to address the existing gaps.
Geopolitical rivalry between India and China in Nepal
Authors: Thapa Madhav
Published: February 2025

Nepal as a small Himalayan nation lying between two Asiatic giants India and China, has a unique geopolitical location. The study examines the geopolitical rivalry between India and China over Nepal through the security interests, connectivity issues and natural resources aspects of Nepal. The study also analyzes the challenges of Nepal’s foreign policy considering the geopolitical perspective of India and China. The study is qualitative research focusing on content analysis, and the study centers on the realist approach. The study describes geopolitics as an independent variable and the three major sub-variables for the study of geopolitics are security, connectivity, and natural resources. The contradicting security perceptions and connectivity interests of India and China regarding Nepal have sometimes heightened Nepal’s challenge to balance her immediate neighbors. The unstable government, weak diplomatic mechanism, and existing trust deficiency of neighboring nations towards Nepal have raised geopolitical challenges as high as the Himalayas.
Use of Social Media Platforms by University Students
Authors: Parajuli Rishi Kanta
Published: February 2025

The main objective of this study was to identify purposes of using different social media platforms by university students studying in different faculties, i.e., management, arts and humanities, and education. A descriptive research design was employed under quantitative inquiry. A Google Form questionnaire was administered, and responses were collected purposefully from students studying at Madhyabindu Multiple Campus and Kumarwarti Multiple Campus. Out of 350 responses, only 311 complete responses were further processed and analyzed using descriptive statistical tools such as frequency, percentage, and chart. This study reveals that Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, and Instagram social media platforms are used by the majority of students for two or more hours each day, aiming to connect other people and share personal experience through photos, videos, and texts rather than academic and professional purposes. However, findings were drawn based on the responses of only 311 sample students, which may restrict the generalization of the findings of this study to the whole population. This paper contributes to the prevailing body of knowledge on the use of social media platforms by university students. Accordingly, this will be helpful for educational institutions, policymakers and social media platforms to make different provisions and offers regarding the social media sites.

FILOZOFICZNY SPÓR Z CHRZEŚCIJAŃSTWEM
Authors: Ziemiński Ireneusz
Published: February 2025

Chrześcijaństwo od początku było zgorszeniem dla Żydów i głupstwem dla pogan (1 Kor 1, 23), wyznawcy judaizmu bowiem nie mogli zaakceptować mesjasza umierającego haniebną śmiercią na krzyżu, a Grecy widzieli w nowej religii nieracjonalny mit. Z kolei Rzymianie prześladowali chrześcijan z racji politycznych, widząc w nich zagrożenie dla władzy cesarza. Odkąd jednak chrześcijaństwo stało się religią państwową, jego wyznawcy zaczęli prześladować inne wyznania jako rzekome bałwochwalstwo.Współczesny spór z chrześcijaństwem ma charakter moralny. Z jednej strony dotyczy okrucieństwa Boga, który zbawia świat przez mękę i śmierć swego niewinnego syna, z drugiej – naczelnej zasady etycznej chrześcijaństwa, jaką jest przykazanie miłości bliźniego.

Głównym narzędziem badawczym zastosowanym w analizie i interpretacji powieści jest pojęcie negatywności zaczerpnięte z Kojèviańskiej interpretacji Hegla. Dialektyka tożsamości głównego bohatera Solaris opiera się na relacji z Innym, który staje się lustrem ukazującym odwrócony obraz pozytywny patrzącego. Odnalezienie tożsamości jest bowiem możliwe dzięki negatywności: utracie, braku, niedoskonałości itp. Celem artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytania: co odróżnia nas od „neutrinowych gości”?, co pozwala odnaleźć tożsamość? oraz jak przebiega proces myślenia tożsamościowego?
„TAKI GAD ŻONĄ SIĘ NAZYWA...”. SYMBOLIKA WĘŻA W PRÓCHNIE I OZIMINIE WACŁAWA BERENTA

Published: February 2025

Artykuł opisuje symbolikę węża w kulturze i systemach religijnych. Skupia się także na postaci Wężowej Bogini, która reprezentowała seksualną moc kobiety. Ta siła miała aspekt zarówno tworzący, jak i niszczący, najważniejsze zadaniepolegało na rozpoznaniu własnej istoty – wężowej natury, okiełznaniu jej i wykorzystaniu do działalności twórczej. Za przykład do analizy wężowego motywu posłużyły autorce dwie powieści Wacława Berenta, mianowicie: Próchno oraz Ozimina. W odniesieniu do pierwszego tekstu analiza koncentruje się na postaci Władysława Borowskiego, jego ojca, a także: Franciszka Müllera, Henryka Hertensteina i malarza Pawluka. Kluczowa była także postać śpiewaczki Yvetty i jej piosenka o żądnej zemsty żmii. W przypadku Oziminy analizie poddano postać Niny, która okazała się mieć cechy wężowej bogini z Egiptu – Uadżat, a także słynnej diwy, której wygląd, cechy charakteru oraz zachowanie naprowadzały na skojarzenia z wężowym bóstwem.

Zjawisko globalizacji wymaga podejść badawczych, które są na przemian opisowe i normatywne, a często zarówno opisowe, jak i normatywne. Dlatego konieczne jest opracowanie analiz, które pozwolą zrozumieć, w jaki sposób cele lub zasady działań publicznych (krajowych lub międzynarodowych) ewoluują w odpowiedzi na zmiany w warunkach międzynarodowej koordynacji i współpracy. W artykule szczególności omówiono wpływ globalizacji na relacje między państwami i wdrażanie zasad takich jak prawa podstawowe.
FUNCIÓN CRÍTICA DEL ARTE EN SISTEMAS DE CREENCIAS – JOSÉ ORTEGA Y GASSET
Authors: Ozimek Mateusz
Published: February 2025

Refleksje José Ortegi y Gasseta dotyczące idei i przeświadczeń mogą być odczytane jako przykład tendencji filozoficznej skupionej wokół zagadnienia historyczności ludzkiej wiedzy. W związku z tym poglądy Ortegi można zestawić z poglądami innych europejskich filozofów XX wieku, np. Michela Foucaulta. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie, że zarówno Ortega, jak i Foucault podkreślają w swoich dziełach znaczenie krytycznej funkcji sztuki podczas epok przejściowych dla systemów myśli. Ponadto, obaj filozofowie odwołują się do twórczości Diego Velázqueza w celu wyjaśnienia tejże krytycznej funkcji sztuki na przykładzie malarstwa.
A SIMPLE ION-ASSOCIATION COMPLEX FORMATION BASED SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC STUDY OF DI[R, S]-3-[4-(2- METHOXYETHYL)PHENOXY-1-(ISOPROPYL AMINO)PROPAN-2-OL] TARTRATE (METOPROLOL TARTRATE) BY APPLYING AN AZO DYE, TROPAEOLIN OOO

Published: February 2025

Based on the drug's complexation with Tropaeolin OOO (TPOOO), a novel, sensitive, accurate, and simple visible spectrophotometric approach has been established for metoprolol tartrate (MPT) assessment in this research study. A quick and simple technique to measure MPT quantitatively in biological matrices would be helpful for both therapeutic monitoring and cases of intoxication. A validated UV-visible spectrophotometric quantitative assessment method of MPT in caplet as well as in bulk formulation at a molar absorptivity of 1.746×104 L. mole-1 cm-1 and λmax of 485 nm is presented in this research. Targeted for validation were the following parameters: precision, accuracy, sensitivity, and linearity. The basis for this advocated visible spectrophotometric approach is the secondary amine group present in the MPT molecule. It has been demonstrated that the chromogenic reagent, TPOOO is very effective in the identification and quantification of compounds containing amino groups. MPT and TPOOO co-ordination complex, which can be extracted into chloroform from an aqueous solution, is the colorful species that results. The current work is based on the complex formed having a blue color that forms when the drug, MPT is treated with TPOOO as it contains a secondary amine group. The method presented here is more sensitive, selective, rapid, cheap, easily reproducible, and simple. These factors make it suitable for routine examination, including the measurement of MPT in biological samples and pharmaceutical formulations.

Modern veterinary transfusiology is a critically important field that significantly influences the quality of medical care available for animals. This is especially relevant for service animals that work in conflict zones or emergency situations, where the need for immediate blood transfusion may be life-saving. Research into the development of this field shows how advances in scientific knowledge and technology have substantially improved blood transfusion practices in veterinary medicine, enhancing survival rates for patients. The objective of this work is to trace the evolution of blood transfusion methods from early experiments in the 17th century to modern techniques, to reveal the significance of blood grouping in reducing incompatibility risks, and to assess the role of component therapy and cryopreservation in preserving donor blood. The study demonstrated that the historical development of transfusion practices in veterinary medicine has laid the foundation for creating modern methods that greatly improve treatment effectiveness and animal safety. The introduction of blood group identification and component therapy has reduced incompatibility risks, achieved through accumulated scientific knowledge and numerous experiments. Cryopreservation of donor blood has been a particularly important step, enabling the creation of reserves for emergency assistance, which is essential in veterinary practice. Thanks to this, veterinary medicine today can effectively use donor blood components, provide more reliable and faster help in cases of blood loss and other critical conditions. The historical overview of the development of veterinary transfusion underlines the importance of further research in this field. This is necessary to improve blood preservation methods, reduce infection risks, and ensure the availability of donor blood in emergency cases. The obtained results make a valuable contribution to developing high standards of safety and effectiveness in animal treatment.
Morphological characteristics of the proventriculus of the budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus)

Published: February 2025

The stomach diseases of the parrots, which are one of the most famous companion birds, are frequently encountered, however, information regarding the features of its microscopic structure is insufficient and sometimes contradictory. At the same time, understanding its morpho-functional features is a necessary condition for developing their feeding rations, as well as methods of prevention and treatment of diseases of the digestive system. We determined the peculiarities of the microscopic structure, as well as the age parameters of the morphometric indicators of the proventriculus of budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) of 9 age groups: 1-, 3-, 7-, 14-, 21-days-old, 1-, 2-, and 6 -month-old and 1-year-old. Histological preparations were made from a cross-section of the middle part of the organ, which were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, and according to Mallory as well. The antrum wall of the proventriculus consisted of four membranes: mucous, submucosal, muscular and serous. The superficial glands were found in the composition of the mucous membrane, which were villi-finger-shaped protrusions of the lamina propria, covered with a single-layer prismatic epithelium. Deep glands were located in the submucosal base, which were represented by tightly packed lobes in the shape of a wide cone, consisting of tubular secretory sections that converged radially to the central excretory duct. This opened at the apex of the papillae. We did not establish the muscularis mucosa of the mucous membrane. The muscular sheath consisted of two layers formed by non-striated muscle tissue – an inner wide circular layer and an outer narrow longitudinal layer, between which myenteric nerve nodes were found. Most of the morphometric indicators of the microstructures of the budgerigar's stomach: the thickness of the mucous membrane, the height, and width of the lobules, the width of their tubes, and the height of their epithelium increased from 1-day-old mainly to 1-month-old, and then were smaller. At the same time, the number of lobules of deep glands on stomach cross-sections did not change with age. In contrast, muscle thickness increased from 1-day-old to 1-year-old. An intense increase in the indicators of the superficial and deep glands of the glandular part of the stomach indicates its high functional activity precisely during the active growth and development of budgerigars.

An Algorithm for Identification of Regulatory Signals in Unaligned	DNA Sequences, Its Testing and Parallel Implementation
Authors: Danilova Ludmila V. , Lyubetsky Vassily A. , Gelfand Mikhail S.
Published: February 2025

We describe an algorithm (IRSA) for identification of common regulatory signals in samples of unaligned DNA sequences. The algorithm was tested on randomly generated sequences of fixed length with implanted signal of length 15 with 4 mutations, and on natural upstream regions of bacterial genes regulated by PurR, ArgR and CRP. Then it was applied to upstream regions of orthologous genes from Escherichia coli and related genomes. Some new palindromic binding and direct repeats signals were identified. Finally we present a parallel version suitable for computers supporting the MPI protocol. This implementation is not strictly bounded by the number of available processors. The computation speed linearly depends on the number of processors.
