How Do Praxis-Oriented Themes Inform the Unity of Language Teachers’ Beliefs, Practices, and Identities? A Narrative Inquiry
Authors: Gao Yang , Wang Xiaochen , Meng Yaru
Published: July 2024

Praxis, according to the Vygotskian thoughts and tenets, entails the unity of and dialectical relationship between theory and practice. As a vital concept grounded in sociocultural theory, praxis has received increasing attention among language teacher education scholars, typically over recent years (e. g., Johnson et al., 2020, 2022). Yet, there remains scant research through the lens, thus requiring extended efforts from researchers. To join the existing literature and bridge the gap, we explored how praxis- oriented themes may inform the development of professional beliefs and practices between mentor-mentee duos through TESOL-related programs. In addition, we investigated how the development of beliefs and practices may, in turn, inform the mentorships and contribute to the identity development of these duos. We adopted the narrative inquiry method and captured the participants’ experiences and emotional episodes over their mentoring journeys. We reported a common developmental path along the two duos’ mentoring journeys, while they differed in a few places. These journeys were found to unfold through a 3E pattern with three distinct stages, each contributing to the evolution of their beliefs and practices. These stages were identified as enhancing learning, embodying the mentor, and embracing heritage and identity. Accordingly, three different types of identities, including learner and apprentice, mentee and novice researcher, and language teacher and Chinese culture embodiment, were identified in the stages. Our study provides valuable insights for language teachers and teacher educators by shedding light on praxis-oriented themes that can enhance teacher professional development programs.
Dynamic Development in L2 Written Complexity of Chinese EFL Learners
Authors: Xu Jinfen , Yang Baoqi
Published: July 2024

The present study investigated the developmental trajectories of written language of two Chinese EFL learners in terms of complexity over one semester and explored the relationship between syntactic complexity and lexical complexity under the framework of Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST). The data were processed using dynamic analyses (min-max graphs, moving correlations and Change-point analysis) to visualize the developmental process and variability of each subsystem of complexity with 4 measures (mean length of T-unit, mean length of clause, clauses per T-unit and VocD) and interactions between different subsystems. The results showed, first, that different subsystems of written language complexity developed dynamically and nonlinearly with different degrees of variability, and varied in the two participants. Second, interactions existed between syntactic complexity and lexical complexity, which shaped as competitors for Jenny but as connected growers for Helen. The results further deepened the understanding of the development in learners’ written complexity, providing significant implications for EFL writing teaching.
Ecclesiastical Policies on Education: A Democratic Game of Winners and Losers?
Authors: Aldrin Viktor
Published: July 2024

In the post-secular societies of Scandinavia and Great Britain, Christian denominations have had to reconstruct their identities as educational agents. This article focuses on the Church of England and the Church of Sweden, and their changed self-identification as expressed in their educational policy documents. Whereas the Church of England’s discourses are of partnership and business competition, the Church of Sweden’s discourses are about the Apocalypse and external threats. These approaches are analysed using Habermas’s concept of religion, identifying a transformation of religious language into secular argumentation to become viable in the secular public space. The question posed is: “Is theology exerting less influence over education in Scandinavia and Great Britain?”
Epigenetic differences in the tumor suppressor genes MLH1 and p16INK4a between Nepalese and Swedish patients with colorectal cancer
Authors: Ghimire Bikal , Kurlberg Göran , Falk Peter , Singh Yogendra , Wettergren Yvonne
Published: July 2024

Objectives

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent cancer types worldwide, exhibiting significant variance in incidence rates across different ethnicities and geographical regions. Notably, there is a rising incidence of CRC among younger adults, particularly evident in advanced stages, with a more pronounced trend observed in developing nations. Epigenetic alterations potentially play a role in the early onset of CRC and could elucidate interpopulation disparities. This study aimed to examine DNA methylation levels in the tumor suppressor genes MLH1 and p16INK4a, comparing Nepalese and Swedish patients with CRC.

Methods

Patients who underwent CRC surgery at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, Nepal (n=39), and Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Sweden (n=39) were included. Demographic and clinicopathological data were analyzed, and pyrosequencing was employed to determine methylation levels in the MLH1 promoter region and the first exon of p16INK4a in tumor tissues and adjacent mucosa located 10 cm from the tumor site. Subsequently, methylation status was compared between Nepalese and Swedish patients and correlated with clinicopathological parameters.

Results

Nepalese and Swedish patients displayed equal levels of MLH1 and p16INK4a methylation in tumors, but Nepalese patients exhibited a significantly higher level of MLH1 methylation in mucosa compared to Swedish patients (p=0.0008). Moreover, a greater proportion of Nepalese patients showed MLH1 methylation in mucosa compared to Swedish patients (31 vs. 2.6 %). Aberrant methylation of p16INK4a was also observed in the mucosa of Nepalese patients, characterized by high methylation at specific sites rather than uniform methylation across CpG sites. There were no significant differences in methylation levels based on tumor location among Nepalese patients, whereas Swedish patients exhibited higher methylation in right- compared to left-sided colon tumors. Swedish patients showed an increase in p16INK4a methylation in tumors with advancing age.

Conclusions

Nepalese and Swedish patients displayed equal levels of MLH1 and p16INK4a methylation in tumors. In contrast, Nepalese patients had a higher level of MLH1 methylation as well as aberrant methylation of p16INK4a in mucosa compared to Swedish patients. These epigenetic differences may be linked to environmental and lifestyle factors. Ongoing research will further explore whether hypermethylation in the mucosa of Nepalese patients is associated with tumorigenesis and its potential utility in screening high-risk patients or predicting recurrence.
Learning curves for high tibial osteotomy using patient-specific instrumentation: a case control study
Authors: Stimolo Davide , Leggieri Filippo , Matassi Fabrizio , Barra Angelo , Civinini Roberto , Innocenti Matteo
Published: July 2024

Objectives

Three-dimensional (3D) planning and Patient Specific Instrumentation (PSI) can help the surgeon to obtain more predictable results in Medial Opening Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy (mOW-HTO) than the conventional techniques. We compared the accuracy of the PSI and standard techniques and measured the learning curve for surgery time and number of fluoroscopic shots.

Methods

We included the first 12 consecutive cases of mOW-HTO performed with 3D planning and PSI cutting guides and the first 12 non-supervised mOW-HTO performed with the standard technique. We recorded surgery time and fluoroscopic time. We calculated the variation (Δ delta) between the planned target and the postoperative result for Hip Knee Ankle Angle (HKA), mechanical medial Proximal Tibia Angle (MPTA), Joint Line Convergence Angle (JLCA) and tibial slope (TS) and compared it both groups. We also recorded the complication rate. We then calculated the learning curves for surgery time, number of fluoroscopic shots, Δ from target in both groups. CUSUM analysis charts for learning curves were applied between the two groups.

Results

Mean surgical time and mean number of fluoroscopic shots were lower in PSI group (48.58±7.87 vs. 58.75±6.86 min; p=0.034 and 10.75±3.93 vs. 18.16±4.93 shots; p<0.001). The postoperative ΔHKA was 0.42±0.51° in PSI vs. 1.25±0.87° in conventional, p=0.005. ΔMPTA was 0.50±0.67° in PSI vs. 3.75±1.48° in conventional, p<0.001; ΔTS was 1.00±0.82° in PSI vs. 3.50±1.57° in conventional, p<0.001. ΔJLCA was 1.83±1.11° in PSI vs. 4±1.41° in conventional, p<0.001. The CUSUM analysis favoured PSI group regarding surgery time (p=0.034) and number of shots (p<0.001) with no learning curve effect for ΔHKA, ΔMPTA, ΔJLCA and ΔTS.

Conclusions

PSI cutting guides and 3D planning for HTO are effective in reducing the learning curves for operation time and number of fluoroscopic shots. Accuracy of the procedure has been elevated since the first cases.
Modal analysis for the non-destructive testing of brazed components
Authors: Bobzin Kirsten , Heinemann Hendrik , Hebing Julian , Erck Marvin , Menke Janis
Published: July 2024

In brazing processes, the formation of defects within the brazing joint due to deviations in brazing process and material is a recurring problem. These affect the component quality as well as the component properties. In this study, modal analysis is fundamentally investigated as a potential tool for non-destructive testing of brazing joints as well as for fast quantification of the precision of the brazing process. The aim of the investigation is to detect defects in brazed components. For this purpose, test specimens in defect-free and defect-containing form are brazed by means of a high-vacuum furnace. The subsequent recording and real-time analysis of the oscillation behavior of these test specimens is to be used to evaluate the quality of these brazed joints. A method, developed specifically for this purpose, automatically evaluates the recorded oscillation profile based on several defined frequency positions. For the first time, the results show that a reproducible classification of brazing seam quality into OK and not-OK can be made by comparing several frequency positions with already known oscillation profiles.
Nietzsche’s Sorrentino Politics
Authors: Murray Peter Durno
Published: July 2024

The passages composed by Nietzsche around the time he spent at Sorrento reflect an engagement with the anarcho-utopian socialist milieu into which he had been introduced by Malwida von Meysenbug. The “Sorrentino politics” that appear in Human, All Too Human I and II and later works need to be understood in the context of an affirmative form of political thought that could remedy the pessimism and nihilism that he finds in the politics of all sides. Nietzsche argues that the monarchical state, modern industrialism, and the restricted ownership of capital and property all undermine the goal of creating a life-affirming culture for Europe. He also provides a criticism of a utopian teleology of equality in the future – whether religious or socialist – that imposes an objective notion of purpose. Nietzsche rejects the Schopenhauerian pessimism of resignation while affirmatively engaging with the thought of Alexander Herzen and Guiseppe Mazzini.
Mündigkeit als Hybris? Über implizite Anthropologie und das Ideal des „mündigen Athleten“
Authors: Kluck Steffen
Published: July 2024

Der Beitrag unternimmt es, das Konzept der Mündigkeit historisch herzuleiten und zu zeigen, wie es im Ideal des „mündigen Athleten“ weiterwirkt. Ausgehend von begriffsgeschichtlichen Spuren wird durch eine konkrete Fallanalyse gezeigt, dass das Ideal für Sportler und Sportlerinnen problematische Konsequenzen zeitigt. Um diesen zu begegnen, wird ein erweitertes Verständnis von Mündigkeit entwickelt, welches im Wesentlichen eine Mündigkeit gegen sich selbst fordert. Es kommt der Mensch als Person in den Fokus, die sich mit heteronomen Einflüssen wie Gefühlen auseinanderzusetzen hat. Die Verteidigung des Konzepts erfolgt durch Aufzeigen theoretischer Reperspektivierungen, wobei zugleich auf neue theoretische Probleme hingewiesen wird. Insgesamt zeigt sich so die Relevanz anthropologischer Reflexionen für sportspezifische Fragestellungen.
„Inność” w powieści Artura Klinaua Szalom
Authors: Drozd‑Urbańska Katarzyna ,   Uniwersytet Warszawski
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the experience of otherness in the formation of an individual’s identity on the example of Arthur Klinau’s work Shalom. The focus of the study is the way in which the main character is created, including the role of an unusual object and the impact on his identity. The novel, published in 2011, is another example of the use of the motif of otherness in contemporary Belarusian literature. The analyzed work has not so far been the subject of in‑‑depth literary reflection in terms of otherness. The author of the article uses a traditional comparative analysis, in which the overriding criterion is to show the change in the protagonist’s perception of himself and the surrounding reality after putting on the helmet, as well as society’s reaction to a person distinguished by his appearance, and therefore defined by the prism of otherness. The purpose of the article is to verify the hypothesis that the selfifidentification of the main character – the sculptor André – as the “other”, determines his life fate in a Belarusian society afraid of change leading him to professional and social exclusion. In the course of the argument, it was concluded that the otherness of an individual in the world depicted in the novel with direct reference to contemporary Belarus is perceived by the authorities as a potential threat to the existing social order. At the same time, it should be stated that the protagonist’s behavior, although irrational and meaningless in essence, along with the growing repression, becomes a demonstration of independence and resistance to the authoritarian system limiting individual freedom.
Portret bohaterki lirycznego cyklu Дурнушка Siemiona Nadsona w świetle inspiracji literackich
Authors: Dziedzic Joanna ,   Uniwersytet w Białymstoku
Published: July 2024

The subject of research in this article is Semyon Nadson’s informal lyrical cycle Дурнушка. The research method is the classic analysis of poems. The aim of the work was to show the most important, in my opinion, sources of literary inspirations that influenced the formation of the image of the lyrical heroine of the cycle. Inspiration from the romantic tradition comes to the fore (including ideal female characters embodying physical and spiritual beauty, themes of loneliness, alienation, conflict with society, unrequited love). The great realistic Russian prose of the 19th century also left a clear mark, from which the writer drew themes of social injustice, beauty, suffering, the motif of an unhappy childhood, family, and the role of women in society. Nadson creatively used the types of literary heroes existing in Russian literature at that time, such as “Turgenev’s maidens”, “superfluous man” and representatives of the progressive youth of the 1860s. The socially engaged tradition of Nekrasov’s poetry was also close to him. Despite the variety of inspirations and literary influences affecting him, Nadson managed to retain the original element of his personality in his poetry, as well as the independence of poetic thought, which was expressed in questioning traditional aesthetic assumptions and attempts to interpret existing themes and motifs on his own.
Польсько-український переклад експресивно-емоцiйної лексики в оповіданнях із циклу Відьмак Анджея Сапковського
Authors: Криштоф Надія ,   Волинський національний університет імені Лесі Українки
Published: July 2024

The article deals with the study of expressive and emotional vocabulary in the translation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s stories about the Witcher, which was carried out by Serhiy Legeza and is relevant in connection with the growing interest in the author’s work among Ukrainian readers. This popular literary series is known for its complex plot, multi‑‑layered characters and emotionally charged scenes. Studying the ways of conveying emotionally colored vocabulary in the Ukrainian language makes it possible to better understand the characteristics and functions of these expressions in the text. The purpose of the study is to analyze the ways in which the translator chooses appropriate words, grammatical constructions, and stylistic techniques for the transfer of emotionally colored vocabulary from Polish to Ukrainian. It is important to identify the main difficulties that translators face in this process, as well as to analyze strategies for solving these problems. The results of the study emphasize the importance of careful analysis and the translator’s creative approach to the emotionally charged texts. Taking into account the context and stylistic features of the original text helps to achieve the most accurate and expressive translation. Such an analysis contributes to the development of a cultural and linguistic community, contributing to a better understanding and appreciation of literary works.
Церковнославянизмы и заимствования из восточнославянских языков в польской православной терминологии
Authors: Rygorowicz-Kuźma Anna ,   Uniwersytet w Białymstoku
Published: July 2024

Orthodox terminology in the contemporary Polish language is an interesting topic that requires scientific research. This article deals with religious terms of Orthodox or East Slavic origin and concerns proper borrowings, i.e. foreign forms transferred in their original or slightly transformed form, adapted to the Polish language system. The analysed terms were extracted from the Dictionary of Polish Orthodox Terminology edited by W. Przyczyna, K. Czarnecka and M. Ławreszuk. Church Slavonicisms and East Slavicisms are groups of borrowings characteristic of Polish Orthodox terminology. The presence of Church Slavonicisms is related to the functioning of the Church Slavonic liturgical language in the Orthodox Church in Poland. These borrowings name primarily designations and concepts relating to the liturgical life and rituals of the Orthodox Church. In addition to Church Slavonicisms, East Slavic borrowings (Russian, Ukrainian, Belorussian), not attested in the Church Slavonic language, constitute a characteristic group in the terminology of Polish Orthodoxy. These lexemes most often refer to the culture of East Slavic Orthodoxy (transferred to Polish) and occur primarily in the spoken language of believers living in the eastern and southern borderlands, as well as resettlers from these areas. The spelling of the borrowed Orthodox terms in the Polish language is not standardized and unified. Their graphic forms are often variants, indicating different ways of penetration into the Polish language system (through written language, oral speech, mediation of a second language).
Historia lokalna w dobie antropocenu. Geopaleontologiczna narracja Domu ojców Andrzeja Muszyńskiego
Authors: Roszczynialska Magdalena ,   Wydział Nauk Humanistycznych, Uniwersytet Komisji Edukacji Narodowej w Krakowie
Published: July 2024

The article discusses Andrzej Muszyński’s autobiographical book Dom ojców [House of Fathers] in the context of geological turn. In the first part, the author maps the centro-peripheral conditions of the Olkusz land. In the second part, using methods of environmental history, the author shows how, in the era of the Anthropocene and global challenges related to polycrisis, to establish a relationship with the local community. The article discusses how, by transcending the historical conditions of plebeianism, the writer finds a non-antagonistic identity and a positive relationship with his rural heritage. Muszyński reaches into deep time, into the vertical scale, to find the foundation of identity in prehistory. He finds support in a sense of connection with species of humans living on the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland since the Pleistocene, as well as with other organic and mineral actors of the Upland. The author introduces the category of the Anthropocene narrative of the Jurassic. She also utilizes the concept of geontology.
Dukla Andrzeja Stasiuka. Opowieść o miejscu, które się wydarza
Authors: Konończuk Elżbieta ,   Wydział Filologiczny, Uniwersytet w Białymstoku
Published: July 2024

This article seeks to interpret Andrzej Stasiuk’s poetic prose entitled Dukla, which records the experience of a specific geographical place and is therefore read here from the perspective of geopoetics. The key reoccurring motif in the descriptions of Dukla is light, which for Stasiuk is the main event of this place, so his work can be called a poetic study of light that enlivens the landscape of Beskid Niski. The story of Dukla was read as a specific treatise on geopoetics which narrates a geographically, historically and poetically charming place, as well as an example of the hermeneutics of place, i.e. the art of interpreting the place as an event, a dynamic interaction between the place and the subject experiencing it.
Czasoprzestrzeń defektywna. O relacjach chorowania, czasu i przestrzeni w narracjach (auto)patograficznych na przykładzie Mięcha Anety Żukowskiej
Authors: Świątkowska Maria ,   Szkoła Doktorska Nauk Humanistycznych, Uniwersytet Jagielloński
Published: July 2024

This article presents an analysis of the ways in which illness experience is represented in literary work as a process in defective (a term coined by Iwona Boruszkowska) time and space. Aneta Żukowska’s autopathography Mięcho [Meat] is presented as a case study. In illness narratives hierarchically structured space of the clinic plays an important role, while time is reorganized by the rules imposed within the pathosystem (a term coined by Agnieszka Dauksza). The analysis of the ways of representing time and space in illness narratives allows for illness to be depicted as both embodied and idiosyncratic experience, and a process that is situated within and influenced by the external conditions of medical system. It is a valuable perspective for the literary studies of illness narratives as well as an important context for the medical humanities, a discipline which aims to elevate patients’ voices within the healthcare system.

Authors: Krawiec Monika ,   Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Górska Anna ,   Warsaw University of Life Sciences
Published: July 2024

Purpose – This paper aimed at assessing the efficiency of investment in companies belonging to the rare earth elements sector and examining the stability of the results. Research method – The following performance measures were used in the study: modified Sharpe and Omega, Sortino, Calmar, Sterling and Burke ratios. The investigation is based on daily quotations of selected companies whose business activities were related to extraction, processing and recycling of rare earth metals in the period: from July 2018 to June 2023 and MVIS® Global Rare Earth/Strategic Metals Index representing the global market. Results – The analysis for the entire period revealed a worse performance of investments in rare earth stocks than investment in risk-free assets. Only AREC outperformed other securities offering the best results for 3 of 6 ratios. To examine the stability of the results, the total investigation period was divided into 5 subperiods and all performance ratios were determined for each of them. A strong variation of results did not allow to recognise stable patterns. When the results for the entire investigation period were used as a benchmark, only MVREMX offered stable and attractive results of modified Sharpe ratio outperforming the five-year value in 4 out of 5 subperiods. Originality / value / implications / recommendations – This study provides a new insight into the rare earths sector regarding its growing international importance and the efficiency of investments into listed rare earth firms. The examination uses two-dimensional measures offering the advantage of simultaneously combining return and risk into a single performance number. The findings imply the necessity of improving the stock price performance to attract investors’ interest.

Abstract
Indonesia is classified as a country with a high prevalence of stunting. Based on the results of the 2021 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI), the stunting prevalence rate in Indonesia was 24.4%; this figure decreased by 6.4% from 30.8% in 2018. Nonetheless, this health problem has a serious impact on the development and growth of children, which can lead to non-optimal growth processes that are irreversible. The research aims to collect information to determine the relationship between stunting and child development. This study is a meta-analysis of a systematic literature review. This was done by taking articles from national and international journals through the Pubmed and Google Scholar electronic databases in the 2012–2022 period and then analyzing them with the Openmee software. The findings of an analysis of 8 selected journal articles show that stunting has a relationship with child growth and development variables such as fine motor, gross motor, language and communication, and social-emotional, each of which has a p-value (p 0.001, p 0.001, p = 0.002). It can be concluded that there is a significant correlation between stunting and child development. This can lead to a decrease in the quality of human resources, so attention is needed when tackling stunting.

El indio, la antropología y la muerte del Hombre. Una ontología latinoamericana del presente
Authors: Camarillo Quesada Julio Andrés
Published: July 2024

Con el objetivo de esbozar una ontología del presente, este artículo sigue las transformaciones de la antropología en México en busca de sus condiciones políticas y epistémicas de enunciación. El gobierno mexicano del siglo XIX dedicó mútliples esfuerzos poblar correctamente el territorio, es decir, con una población sana, educada y civilizada. A principios del siglo XX, las políticas indigenistas promovieron la aculturación de los pueblos indígenas, pero esta aculturación fue luego denunciada como etnocida por una nueva generación de antropólogos, defensores del indigenismo autogestivo y, más tarde, de la valorización de las identidades como capital humano por la metodología neoliberal. El evolucionismo científico dio paso a un paradigma comunicacional, fundamento epistémico de muchas políticas contemporáneas. Es la encarnación misma del tema foucaltiano de la muerte del Hombre como forma de saber, y la ilustración de una nueva episteme.

Published: July 2024

No âmbito da pesquisa-ação (Tripp, 2005) e nos conceitos de ocupação (Ferreira, 2019), desobediência civil (Saviani, 2017) e resistência indígena (Cappellari, 2022), apresenta-se o relato de experiência de uma professora formadora de pedagogos indígenas Laklãnõ/Xokleng em uma Instituição Federal de Ensino Superior no interior do estado de Santa Catarina, entre 2018 e 2023, de modo a problematizar as relações socias deste espaço de cultura erudita, majoritariamente eurocêntrica, na formação de sujeitos, cujo objetivo maior é qualificação para atuar em suas comunidades, escolas e centros culturais indígenas e ao passo de sua resistência em ocupa-los. Conclui-se que o trabalho intercultural é importante para ampliação de visões de mundo (Freire, 1989) e que ações coletivas têm mais força do que trabalhos pedagógicos individualizados.

El presente artículo de revisión tiene como objetivo aumentar la literatura sobre el desarrollo exportador de las PYME peruanas a través de e-marketplace, esto debido al continuo avance de la tecnología de Internet y la intensificación del comercio electrónico. El análisis de la presente investigación se realizó mediante una revisión bibliográfica sistemática, en la cual se seleccionaron un conjunto de artículos relacionados con desarrollo exportador y marketplace, siguiendo algunos criterios por conveniencia con el fin de extraer información acertada y fiable. Se utilizó como criterio de inclusión los artículos de revistas sobre marketplace y desarrollo exportador, horizonte temporal, y límites de búsqueda, y como criterio de exclusión libros, artículos de conferencia, editoriales y comentarios. Tras la iteración realizada, la muestra final incluye 40 artículos de revistas y se concluyó que existen pruebas empíricas más que suficientes para establecer la existencia de una relación positiva entre desarrollo exportador y los e-marketplace. Este estudio propone la capacidad de transformación digital de las empresas que optan por el comercio electrónico transfronterizo (e-marketplace) como variable que afecta su rendimiento exportador.
Construcción de plásmidos mediante clonación in vivo para la búsqueda y caracterización de oligopéptidos quelantes de hierro en Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast serves as a nutritional supplement and food additive that may offer highly bioavailable iron. Several studies have demonstrated the viability of using iron-chelating oligopeptides to treat anaemia, suggesting that their production in yeast cells could advantageously provide an easy-to-use supplement. In this study, an in vivo cloning strategy was optimized to construct a semi-random plasmid library that enables the production of oligopeptides with six repetitions of Asp/Glu-Asp/Glu-Leu sequences. In these sequences, the first and second positions can include either aspartate or glutamate residues, while the third is always leucine. Additionally, several plasmids were constructed to allow the study of variants of the Arg-Glu-Glu oligopeptide, previously reported as an iron chelator. In each case, the required plasmid constructions were performed using an in vivo cloning strategy in S. cerevisiae, based on gap repair by homologous recombination. The procedure involves the co-transformation of yeast cells with the linearized plasmid and the fragment to be cloned, both with homologous flanking sequences. The resulting transformants harbor the correctly assembled plasmids and begin expressing the cloned genes, thereby enabling immediate analysis of the synthesized oligopeptides with known or semi-random sequences.
