An Ancient Yeast for Young Geneticists: A Primer on theSchizosaccharomyces pombeModel System
Authors: Hoffman Charles S , Wood Valerie , Fantes Peter A 
Published: October 2015

AbstractThe fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is an important model organism for the study of eukaryotic molecular and cellular biology. Studies of S. pombe, together with studies of its distant cousin, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, have led to the discovery of genes involved in fundamental mechanisms of transcription, translation, DNA replication, cell cycle control, and signal transduction, to name but a few processes. However, since the divergence of the two species approximately 350 million years ago, S. pombe appears to have evolved less rapidly than S. cerevisiae so that it retains more characteristics of the common ancient yeast ancestor, causing it to share more features with metazoan cells. This Primer introduces S. pombe by describing the yeast itself, providing a brief description of the origins of fission yeast research, and illustrating some genetic and bioinformatics tools used to study protein function in fission yeast. In addition, a section on some key differences between S. pombe and S. cerevisiae is included for readers with some familiarity with budding yeast research but who may have an interest in developing research projects using S. pombe.
Simple Biophysical Model Predicts Faster Accumulation of Hybrid Incompatibilities in Small Populations Under Stabilizing Selection
Authors: Khatri Bhavin S , Goldstein Richard A 
Published: October 2015

Abstract
Speciation is fundamental to the process of generating the huge diversity of life on Earth. However, we are yet to have a clear understanding of its molecular-genetic basis. Here, we examine a computational model of reproductive isolation that explicitly incorporates a map from genotype to phenotype based on the biophysics of protein–DNA binding. In particular, we model the binding of a protein transcription factor to a DNA binding site and how their independent coevolution, in a stabilizing fitness landscape, of two allopatric lineages leads to incompatibilities. Complementing our previous coarse-grained theoretical results, our simulations give a new prediction for the monomorphic regime of evolution that smaller populations should develop incompatibilities more quickly. This arises as (1) smaller populations have a greater initial drift load, as there are more sequences that bind poorly than well, so fewer substitutions are needed to reach incompatible regions of phenotype space, and (2) slower divergence when the population size is larger than the inverse of discrete differences in fitness. Further, we find longer sequences develop incompatibilities more quickly at small population sizes, but more slowly at large population sizes. The biophysical model thus represents a robust mechanism of rapid reproductive isolation for small populations and large sequences that does not require peak shifts or positive selection. Finally, we show that the growth of DMIs with time is quadratic for small populations, agreeing with Orr’s model, but nonpower law for large populations, with a form consistent with our previous theoretical results.

AbstractNeural tube defects including spina bifida are common and severe congenital disorders. In mice, mutations in more than 200 genes can result in neural tube defects. We hypothesized that this large gene set might include genes whose homologs contribute to morphogenesis in diverse animals. To test this hypothesis, we screened a set of Caenorhabditis elegans homologs for roles in gastrulation, a topologically similar process to vertebrate neural tube closure. Both C. elegans gastrulation and vertebrate neural tube closure involve the internalization of surface cells, requiring tissue-specific gene regulation, actomyosin-driven apical constriction, and establishment and maintenance of adhesions between specific cells. Our screen identified several neural tube defect gene homologs that are required for gastrulation in C. elegans, including the transcription factor sptf-3. Disruption of sptf-3 in C. elegans reduced the expression of early endodermally expressed genes as well as genes expressed in other early cell lineages, establishing sptf-3 as a key contributor to multiple well-studied C. elegans cell fate specification pathways. We also identified members of the actin regulatory WAVE complex (wve-1, gex-2, gex-3, abi-1, and nuo-3a). Disruption of WAVE complex members reduced the narrowing of endodermal cells’ apical surfaces. Although WAVE complex members are expressed broadly in C. elegans, we found that expression of a vertebrate WAVE complex member, nckap1, is enriched in the developing neural tube of Xenopus. We show that nckap1 contributes to neural tube closure in Xenopus. This work identifies in vivo roles for homologs of mammalian neural tube defect genes in two manipulable genetic model systems.
Regional Archival Organizations and the Society of American Archivists
Authors: Quinn Patrick 
Published: October 2015

For over three decades following its founding in 1936 the Society of American Archivists remained the only professional organization of archivists in the United States. Just as SAA was a child of other professional organizations, particularly the American Historical Association, it has in turn generated its own offspring. Even though some leaders of the SAA viewed the creation of the first regional archival organizations with apprehension, the SAA Council did provide a number of them with financial assistance as they were being organized. Likewise, several of the SAA's leaders were instrumental in organizing a number of the regionals. At present there is a considerable overlap between leaders of the SAA and the regionals.
The author of this article describes the historical context for the emergence of the local, state, and regional archival organizations; provides a current profile of these organizations that includes information on the dates of their founding, number of members, cost of individual dues, frequency of meetings, and type of publications; discusses the evolving relationship of the SAA with the local, state, and regional organizations; and offers several suggestions for improving these relationships.
Images of New England: Documenting the Built Environment
Authors: Schrock Nancy 
Published: October 2015

The 1980s find the New England states in a period of economic expansion and development that has an impact upon its landscape and built environment. Older structures are being renovated or destroyed, while extensive new building is simultaneously under way. Documenting these changes involves identifying and preserving the records of buildings that are disappearing as well as those of new construction.
The author reviews briefly the history of architecture in New England, focusing on its relationship to the evolution of types of documentation in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: original design records, publications and stock plans, and visual records of completed buildings and their changes over time. The differing approaches of the six states to preserving these records are profiled, and their efforts linked with the growth of an active historic preservation movement. Aspects of the built environment remain less well documented: current development, commercial architecture, landscape design, builders' records, and owner-initiated projects. The author concludes by proposing regional efforts to deal with these issues, capitalizing upon the expertise and experience of the curators, archivists, and conservators of New England's architectural collections.
On the Nature of Records Management Theory
Authors: Buckland Michael 
Published: October 2015

Theory is defined as a view or description of the nature of something. The nature of theory relating to records management is examined, including information retrieval, the records life cycle, and information policy. Records management theory should not be seen in isolation and need not be unique to records management. Functional, professional, and educational contexts of records management theory are outlined, with examples.

Electronic Archives: Integrity and Access in the Network Environment
Authors: Hedstrom Margaret 
Published: October 2015

Computer networking presents opportunities to enhance access to archival records and to preserve rich, detailed documentation of human interaction and communication. This article discusses conceptual, technical, and economic challenges to access and preservation of electronic archives in the evolving network environment. The author argues that respect for the evidentiary nature of archival records cannot be sacrificed for the sake of enhanced access to the contents of archival materials. She encourages archivists to reconsider why, when, and for whom archival records are kept and to find a balance between the utilitarian and the cultural value of archives.

La pureté de sang en révolution. Race et républicanisme en Amérique bolivarienne (1790-1830)
Authors: Thibaud Clément 
Published: October 2015

Si la genèse de la notion de pureté de sang a été bien étudiée dans le monde ibérique, sa disparition comme principe juridique ordonnateur du social n’a pas fait l’objet, pour l’instant, d’études spécifiques. La pureza de sangre apparaît dans l’Espagne du XVI e siècle pour exclure tous les Nouveaux Chrétiens des offices publics. Avec la conquête de l’Amérique, ce principe prend une importance cruciale au sein des nouvelles sociétés qui y naissent, après la destruction des polités amérindiennes ; il devient l’un des cadres ordonnateurs de hiérarchies sociales qui distinguent les individus et les groupes. La pureté de sang définit ainsi la race, entendue comme la transmission généalogique de la dignité et de l’indignité par le sang. À la fin du XVIII e siècle, suivant un mouvement européen, toutes les institutions publiques accordent une attention renouvelée à la pureté du sang de leurs membres. Pourtant, à cette fermeture succède, après 1810, alors que les guerres d’indépendance commencent dans le sous-continent, un consensus général parmi les combattants patriotes sur l’abolition de la clause de pureté. Comment expliquer un renversement si brutal ? L’article essaie de montrer que l’abrogation de la pureté de sang, dont l’importance est demeurée inaperçue aux yeux de l’historiographie, a constitué un enjeu fondamental du premier républicanisme en Amérique hispanique. La décision répond à un ensemble de causes entremêlées, parmi lesquelles l’action de certains libres de couleur et d’Indiens, la logique constitutionnelle et le souvenir des révolutions de Saint-Domingue.
Adapting a Fourier pseudospectral method to Dirichlet boundary conditions for Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Authors: Ramos I. C. , Briozzo Carlos B. 
Published: October 2015

We present the adaptation to non-free boundary conditions of a pseudospectral method based on the (complex) Fourier transform. The method is applied to the numerical integration of the Oberbeck-Boussinesq equations in a Rayleigh-Bénard cell with no-slip boundary conditions for velocity and Dirichlet boundary conditions for temperature. We show the first results of a 2D numerical simulation of dry air convection at high Rayleigh number ($$R\sim10^9$$). These results are the basis for the later study, by the same method, of wet convection in a solar still.Received: 20 Novembre 2014, Accepted: 15 September 2015; Edited by: C. A. Condat, G. J.

Simultaneous Penetrating Keratoplasty with Crescentic Inferior Keratoplasty in Advanced Pellucid Marginal Degeneration
Authors: Smadja David , Touboul David , Saunier Valentine 
Published: October 2015

ABSTRACT

Purpose
To describe and report long-term outcomes of a surgical technique in advanced pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD) combining conventional central penetrating keratoplasty (PK) with an additional crescentic inferior keratoplasty, using a single corneal transplant.

Results
We report the case of a 55-year-old male patient, who underwent a customized sizing PK in his right eye for an advanced PMD, which combined a central PK with an additional crescentic inferior keratoplasty. The 1 year postoperative results show very good clinical outcomes, including visual acuity and biomechanical parameters, as well as tectonic outcomes, documented with high resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) at the junction site between the two grafts.

Conclusion
Advanced PMD is a specifically challenging condition for keratoplasty due to an extreme peripheral corneal thinning. This surgical technique may facilitate inferior suturing and optimize the postoperative tectonic outcomes.

Stock Price Adjustment to Corporate Accounting Disclosure: A Quantitative Study on Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), Bangladesh.
Authors: Ghosh Protap Kumar , Ghosh Sutap Kumar 
Published: October 2015

This study has been designed to detect whether corporate accounting disclosures through annual report influence stock price movement in Dhaka Stock Exchange. To conduct our study, we gathered a series of panel data from 2010 through 2014 of 25 private commercial banks. Least square regression analysis has been done by incorporating fixed effect and random effect models and six models have been developed through Hausman Test. The resulting output revealed that “Earning per share”, “Return on equity” and “Net asset value per share” (book value) positively influenced stock price movement during our study period but “Earning per share” and “Net asset value per share” jointly can explain highest variation in stock price movement in DSE. Although past few studies showed weak form of market efficiency in DSE , this study conveys a positive movement of Banglidesh stock market from weak form towards strong form of efficiency.
Challenges of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) In Vietnam during the Process of Integration into the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC)
Authors: Tran Hai Thi Thanh 
Published: October 2015

This paper analyzes the economic obstacles faced by small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam during the process of integration into ASEAN Economic Community (AEC). It also examines the level of awareness of those obstacles within SMEs and the preparation they made, if any, to overcome those obstacles. To achieve the research objectives, quantitative methods are used. With surveyed data that covered 2,575 SMEs in Vietnam from the Central Institute of Economic Management (CIEM) and the data from the Asian Kenan Institute (OSMEP), the results showed that Vietnamese SMEs are facing major obstacles, such as: (1) intense competition from domestic as well as foreign businesses (2) difficulty in consumer markets, (3) lack of capital, and (4) limited understanding of relevant laws. Lastly, the study provides some suggestions to help Vietnamese SMEs overcome these obstacles and prepare to actively integrate into regional markets.
Do Common Features Exist Among Countries That Locally Adopt IFRS?
Authors: Felski Elizabeth 
Published: October 2015

Although International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) have clearly emerged as the preferred global accounting standard, previous studies of IFRS have mainly focused on post-adoption outcomes. The few IFRS adoption-focused studies are either limited in scope or are based on outdated versions of IFRS. This paper fills these holes in the literature by offering a comprehensive analysis of IFRS adoption: first, through an expanded classification system which includes local adoption as a distinct form of IFRS adoption and then through ANOVA, discriminant analyses and regression analyses. Several variables were identified as significant drivers of adoption status, one being the Asian region which consistently emerged as a powerful driver of adoption type suggesting previous analysis of IFRS diffusion is incomplete, missing this key region variable. This expanded typology suggests that the system of country classification of required/not required currently used is inadequate in capturing how IFRS is adopted in practice.
L’éthique de l’intégration
Authors: Ammicht Quinn Regina , Roy Raymond 
Published: October 2015

Pourquoi est-ce que l’intégration — et on entend par là le fait de vivre dans des sociétés pluralistes, le plus souvent occidentales — connaît-elle tant d’échecs ? Le texte explore deux avenues. La première s’attache à l’infrastructure de cécité et de surdité propres à la politique occidentale, cécité à l’égard de la critique postcoloniale, et surdité à l’endroit des récits qui tissent l’Histoire. La seconde examine le concept de « culture », et son recadrage autour de la notion de « race ». La pensée européenne des Lumières a préparé le terrain aux notions et pratiques sociales d’universalisme et de justice, et elle détermine nos outils moraux jusqu’à l’heure actuelle. La pensée européenne des Lumières a en même temps engendré le concept de race. De nos jours, nous devons nous définir par rapport à ce fondement ambivalent de la pensée (morale) : nous nous en remettons à un concept de raison (occidentale) qui permet à la science et à la société de classer et de trier. Et aussi d’exclure. Quelles sont les tâches qui incombent aux différents « joueurs », c’est-à-dire les politiques, les sociétés, les sciences et les religions ?
Créer des relations justes. Analyse de pratiques innovatrices, féministes et interculturelles dans le contexte canadien
Authors: Couture Denise 
Published: October 2015

Dans un temps où l’on cherche à vivre autrement la différence, sans une dévaluation de « l’autre », cet article présente des résultats d’une recherche réalisée sur le terrain à Montréal (Québec, Canada) dans le cadre de laquelle on a écouté le récit autobiographique spirituel de femmes féministes engagées dans des pratiques interculturelles ou interreligieuses. La recherche se situe dans le contexte canadien et québécois où des féministes antiracistes de la base distinguent différents groupes géopolitiques entre lesquelles se jouent des relations inégalitaires et postcoloniales, dont les Autochtones, les personnes immigrantes, les Anglais et les Français. Sur le plan théorique, le travail s’inscrit dans le champ d’une théologie féministe interculturelle et multireligieuse. On a écouté les récits de femmes qui appartiennent à diverses traditions religieuses ou spirituelles. Quelles stratégies mettent-elles en oeuvre pour créer une justice relationnelle ? On a retenu quatre dimensions de leurs actions : la critique des hiérarchies pour instaurer l’égalité, un désapprentissage des propres préjugés, la construction d’une estime de soi qui intègre les histoires de souffrance de soi et des autres, et la force transformatrice du groupe d’affinité.
The Influences of Event Centrality in Memory Models of PTSD
Authors: Fitzgerald Joseph M. , Berntsen Dorthe , Broadbridge Carissa L. 
Published: October 2015

SummaryThe consequences of events for well‐being are influenced by individual and situational factors that are often studied in isolation. In the research reported here, a large (N = 489) nonclinical sample of college students reported their most traumatic event, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, depressive symptoms, personality traits, and characteristics of their event memory. This study achieved three major goals. First, we identified the highest types of stress event types in this population as disruptions of interpersonal relationships, homicides/assaults on others, and assaults/accidents involving themselves. Second, we established that the effects of memory characteristics such as vividness, belief, and impact on PTSD symptoms are mediated by the centrality of the event to identity. Third, we affirmed the hypothesis that a structural model of the influence of personality factors on PTSD symptoms has a higher level of concurrent validity if event centrality is included as a mediator of those influences.

Published: October 2015

AbstractA highly efficient and practical procedure for palladium‐catalyzed direct thioetherification of quinolone derivatives with diaryl disulfides through decarboxylative C−S coupling has been established. The reaction could proceed smoothly under air in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and Ag2CO3 in DMSO. This protocol provides an appealing alternative to existing approaches to construct aryl sulfides of quinolone derivatives, which may be used as key intermediates in the synthesis of drug candidates.
