description: In the past, laboratory experiments and theoretical calculations showed a mismatch in derived sticking properties of silicates in the context of planetesimal formation. It has been proposed by Kimura et al. (2015) that this mismatch is due to the value of the surface energy assumed, supposedly correlated to the presence or lack of water layers of different thickness on a grain's surface. We present tensile strength measurements of dust aggregates with different water content here. The results are in support of the suggestion by Kimura et al. (2015). Dry samples show increased strengths by a factor of up to 10 over wet samples. A high value of $γ= 0.2 J/m^2$ likely applies to the dry low pressure conditions of protoplanetary disks and should be used in the future.

description: This thesis investigates the origins of lifetime migrants to Surabaya, East Java, and examines the occupational mobility which they experienced as a result of migration. It is mainly concerned with evaluating the occupational mobility and occupational position of inmigrants at different stages of migration in terms of the inmigrants origins and pre-migration characteristics. The first part of the study (Chapters Two, Three and Four) analyses the historical evolution of Surabaya, the geographical origins of migrants and their demographic and socio-economic characteristics prior to migration. The second and major part of the study (Chapters Five, Six, Seven and Eight) compares sequentially the occupations of inmigrants before migration, on arrival in Surabaya, and at the time of the survey in 1974. The amount of occupational mobility experienced by migrants is assessed according to changes between these periods of time in the occupational status and sector of employment defined according to the tri-sectoral model of the urban economy. The aim of these two approaches is on the one hand to assess (for the first time) the explanatory value of the tri-sectoral model in explaining intersectoral occupational mobility associated with migration; and on the other to assess whether an approach which incorporates the individual pre-migration attributes of migrants has a greater capacity to predict the occupational and socioeconomic status of inmigrants. The major finding is that although most migrants have benefited economically from the move to Surabaya, few have been occupationally mobile at any stage of migration. Migrants from underprivileged backgrounds prior to migration have in most cases seen their underprivileged position relative to other migrants carried with them to Surabaya. Another finding is that as a predictor of occupational mobility or as an analytical tool to examine labour markets, the tri-sectoral model is not a significant advance on the traditional model of urban dualism. Third, because of the lack of occupational mobility among migrants, a multivariate model based on five pre-migration predictors alone is able to 'explain' a significant proportion of the income of male and female migrants in Surabaya.

description: Despite their clinical success, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapies for B cell malignancies are limited by lengthy, costly and labor-intensive ex vivo manufacturing procedures that might lead to cell products with heterogeneous composition. Here we describe an implantable Multifunctional Alginate Scaffold for T Cell Engineering and Release (MASTER) that streamlines in vivo CAR-T cell manufacturing and reduces processing time to a single day. When seeded with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and CD19-encoding retroviral particles, MASTER provides the appropriate interface for viral vector-mediated gene transfer and, after subcutaneous implantation, mediates the release of functional CAR-T cells in mice. We further demonstrate that in vivo-generated CAR-T cells enter the bloodstream and control distal tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model of lymphoma, showing greater persistence than conventional CAR-T cells. MASTER promises to transform CAR-T cell therapy by fast-tracking manufacture and potentially reducing the complexity and resources needed for provision of this type of therapy.

description: Regularization of quantum field theories (QFT's) can be achieved by quantizing the underlying manifold (spacetime or spatial slice) thereby replacing it by a non-commutative matrix model or a ``fuzzy manifold''. Such discretization by quantization is remarkably successful in preserving symmetries and topological features, and altogether overcoming the fermion-doubling problem. In this paper, we report on our work on the ``fuzzification'' of the four-dimensional CP2 and its QFT's. CP2 is not spin, but spin${}_c$. Its Dirac operator has many unique features. They are explained and their fuzzy versions are described.

description: We determine the consistency strength of determinacy for projective games of length $ω^2$. Our main theorem is that $\boldsymbolΠ^1_{n+1}$-determinacy for games of length $ω^2$ implies the existence of a model of set theory with $ω+ n$ Woodin cardinals. In a first step, we show that this hypothesis implies that there is a countable set of reals $A$ such that $M_n(A)$, the canonical inner model for $n$ Woodin cardinals constructed over $A$, satisfies $A = \mathbb{R}$ and the Axiom of Determinacy. Then we argue how to obtain a model with $ω+ n$ Woodin cardinal from this. We also show how the proof can be adapted to investigate the consistency strength of determinacy for games of length $ω^2$ with payoff in $\Game^\mathbb{R} \boldsymbolΠ^1_1$ or with $σ$-projective payoff.

description: Ribonucleic acid (RNA) metabolism processes and function are affected by specific RNA sequence motifs, the ability of RNA to form secondary structure and assemble into ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes (Dandekar & Bengert, 2002). As these aspects are likely to be affected by nucleoside modifications, it is important to document the extent and function of post-transcriptional modifications present in these molecules. Thus, there is an increasing focus on exploring the incidence and biological relevance of post-transcriptional marks in RNA. This thesis is aimed at defining a role for the post-transcriptional modification, 5- methylcytidine (m5C) particularly in mRNAs. Bisulfite treatment, which allows for the nucleotide-specific identification of m5C, coupled with next generation sequencing allowed for the detection of m5C sites transcriptome-wide at single-nucleotide resolution. This revealed candidate m5C sites in many RNA biotypes including both non-coding and coding RNA in cervical cancer cells (HeLa). In mRNAs, m5C candidate sites were observed in both untranslated regions and in the coding sequence, suggesting multiple roles for m5C. Global analyses revealed features of the m5C modification in nuclear-encoded mRNAs. m5C sites were shown to be relatively enriched in the 5′ UTR, to be associated with high GC content, low minimum free energy structures, and weakly translated mRNAs. Furthermore, experimental and bioinformatic approaches suggested a role for m5C in regulating mRNA translation by recruiting specific m5C-binding proteins, which were identified through a RNA bait pulldown approach. m5C was also suggested to function in stabilising target mRNA. Bioinformatic and experimental approaches indicated m5C might physically block the destabilising effect of Argonaute 2/microRNA binding. In this way, m5C would protect the transcript from degradation. Also, further work identified the m5C modification in mitochondrial (mt) rRNA, where a function of m5C is discussed, in novel structural positions in mt-tRNAs, but not in mt- mRNAs. Altogether, this thesis suggests that m5C has a complex, context-dependent role in RNA.

description: Variance in IQ is associated with a wide range of health outcomes, and 1% of the population are affected by intellectual disability. Despite a century of research, the fundamental neural underpinnings of intelligence remain unclear. We integrate results from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of intelligence with brain tissue and single cell gene expression data to identify tissues and cell types associated with intelligence. GWAS data for IQ (N = 78,308) were meta-analyzed with a study comparing 1247 individuals with mean IQ ~170 to 8185 controls. Genes associated with intelligence implicate pyramidal neurons of the somatosensory cortex and CA1 region of the hippocampus, and midbrain embryonic GABAergic neurons. Tissue-specific analyses find the most significant enrichment for frontal cortex brain expressed genes. These results suggest specific neuronal cell types and genes may be involved in intelligence and provide new hypotheses for neuroscience experiments using model systems.

description: High-intensity secondary beams play a vital role in today's particle physics and materials science research and require suitable detection techniques to adjust beam characteristics to optimally match experimental conditions. To this end we have developed a non-invasive, ultra-thin, CsI(Tl) luminophore foil detector system, based on CCD-imaging. We have used this to quantify the beam characteristics of an intensity-frontier surface muon beam used for next-generation charged lepton-flavour violation (cLFV) search experiments at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) and to assess the possible use for a future High-intensity Muon Beam (HiMB-project), currently under study at PSI. An overview of the production and intrinsic characteristics of such foils is given and their application in a high-intensity beam environment.

We formulate and prove such a principle for a notion closely related to Segre classes.

description: The ``generic'' family of classical sequential growth dynamics for causal sets provides cosmological models of causal sets which are a testing ground for ideas about the, as yet unknown, quantum theory. In particular we can investigate how general covariance manifests itself and address the problem of identifying and interpreting covariant ``observables'' in quantum gravity. The problem becomes, in this setting, that of identifying measurable covariant collections of causal sets, to each of which corresponds the question: ``Does the causal set that occurs belong to this collection?'' It has for answer the probability measure of the collection. Answerable covariant questions, then, correspond to measurable collections of causal sets which are independent of the labelings of the causal sets. However, what the transition probabilities of the classical sequential growth dynamics provide directly is a measure on the space of {\it labeled} causal sets and the physical interpretation of the covariant measurable collections is consequently obscured. We show that there is a physically meaningful characterisation of the class of measurable covariant sets as unions and differences of ``stem sets''.

description: Gravitational wave detectors capable of making astronomical observations could begin to operate within the next year, and over the next 10 years they will extend their reach out to cosmological distances, culminating in the space mission LISA. A prime target of these observatories will be binary systems, especially those whose orbits shrink measurably during an observation period. These systems are standard candles, and they offer independent ways of measuring cosmological parameters. LISA in particular could identify the epoch at which star formation began and, working with telescopes making electromagnetic observations, measure the Hubble flow at redshifts out to 4 or more with unprecedented accuracy.

description: We discuss unitarity constraints on the dynamics of a system of three interacting particles. We show how the short-range interaction that describes three-body resonances can be separated from the long-range exchange processes, in particular the one-pion-exchange process. It is demonstrated that unitarity demands a specific functional form of the amplitude with a clear interpretation: the bare three-particle resonances are dressed by the initial- and final-state interaction, in a way that is consistent with the considered long-range forces. We postulate that the resonance kernel admits a factorization in the energy variables of the initial- and the final-state particles. The factorization assumption leads to an algebraic form for the unitarity equations, which is reminiscent of the well-known two-body-unitarity condition and approaches it in the limit of the narrow-resonance approximation.

description: Calcium phosphates (CaPs) are ubiquitous in nature and vertebrate bones and teeth, and have high biocompatibility and promising applications in various biomedical fields. Nanostructured calcium phosphates (NCaPs) are recognized as promising nanocarriers for drug/gene/protein delivery owing to their high specific surface area, pH-responsive degradability, high drug/gene/protein loading capacity and sustained release performance. In order to control the structure and surface properties of NCaPs, various biomolecules with high biocompatibility such as nucleic acids, proteins, peptides, liposomes and phosphorus-containing biomolecules are used in the synthesis of NCaPs. Moreover, biomolecules play important roles in the synthesis processes, resulting in the formation of various NCaPs with different sizes and morphologies. At room temperature, biomolecules can play the following roles: (1) acting as a biocompatible organic phase to form biomolecule/CaP hybrid nanostructured materials; (2) serving as a biotemplate for the biomimetic mineralization of NCaPs; (3) acting as a biocompatible modifier to coat the surface of NCaPs, preventing their aggregation and increasing their colloidal stability. Under heating conditions, biomolecules can (1) control the crystallization process of NCaPs by forming biomolecule/CaP nanocomposites before heating; (2) prevent the rapid and disordered growth of NCaPs by chelating with Ca2+ ions to form precursors; (3) provide the phosphorus source for the controlled synthesis of NCaPs by using phosphorus-containing biomolecules. This review focuses on the important roles of biomolecules in the synthesis of NCaPs, which are expected to guide the design and controlled synthesis of NCaPs. Moreover, we will also summarize the biomedical applications of NCaPs in nanomedicine and tissue engineering, and discuss their current research trends and future prospects.

description: This article examines the effect of the financial crisis and economic intervention by the European Union on political parties’ politicisation of the EU within national elections. Data from the Manifesto Project for elections between 2002 and 2017 in 12 Eurozone countries is used to assess how the crisis and intervention altered the saliency, position and clarity of parties’ EU policies. The analysis shows that the crisis only led to an increase in EU saliency in those states not subjected to intervention whilst intervention is actually associated with a decrease in the saliency of the EU. In terms of increasing Euroscepticism, intervention appears to exhibit a greater effect than the crisis although the results display marked asymmetry between different parties on the left and right. The same is observed to be the case for the level of blurring that parties are engaged in to mask their EU positions. The implications of the findings suggest that economic intervention within the EU has negatively impacted democracy in intervened-in member states by reducing the manoeuvrability of parties to provide voters with clear choices on the direction of European integration.

description: This research aims to develop decision making on how to provide employees with a transportation service that is fast, cost effective and timely. This work is different from previous research in that it integrates the bus stop determination, bus assignment and the bus route design sub-problems of an employee transportation service for a large-scale company. The objective of this article is to minimize total travelling costs and the total rental costs of the heterogeneous fleet capacitated vehicles. A mathematical model is applied to solve for small-size problems. Additionally, for large-size problems, five modified differential evolution (MDE) algorithms are developed to solve the three sub-problems simultaneously. New rules used in the mutation process of the MDE algorithms and an advanced design of the encoding and decoding method are presented in this article. The results demonstrate that the MDE is an efficient transportation management system for any organization.

description: As an outstanding tandem partner for silicon solar cells, solution-processed metal halide perovskites offer highly efficient photovoltaics at low cost. To date, the reported monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem cells are fabricated primarily on silicon cells with a front-side-polished surface, which is not compatible with the industrial-standard double-side-textured silicon cells. Thermal evaporation of perovskite film has been reported for perovskite/silicon tandem cells on textured silicon to bridge the gap, but it sacrifices the advantage of solution-processed perovskites. Here, we develop a new tandem architecture that enables scalable, solution-based blading of perovskites onto textured silicon wafers. This new tandem architecture combines the advances of textured silicon photovoltaics and solution-processed perovskite photovoltaics to increase the efficiency while reducing the cost of monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem cells. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.; A new monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cell architecture is proposed based on double-side-textured silicon cells with sub-micrometer pyramids. These pyramids are rough enough to scatter light within silicon nearly as efficiently as large pyramids but smooth enough to solution process a perovskite film. A blade-coated perovskite film planarizes the textured silicon cell. With a textured light-scattering layer added to the top to reduce front-surface reflectance, a monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem cell reaches an efficiency of 26%. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.; Integrating perovskites onto textured silicon provides a pathway to 30% tandem solar cells. However, deposition of 0.5–1 μm thick perovskite layers from solution onto textured silicon with typical pyramid heights of 3–10 μm remains a challenge. We propose a new tandem architecture that enables scalable, solution-based blading of perovskites onto silicon wafers textured with pyramids less than 1 μm in height. These pyramids are rough enough to scatter light within the silicon nearly as efficiently as large pyramids but smooth enough to solution-process a perovskite film. A nitrogen-assisted blading process deposits both a conformal hole transport layer and a planarizing perovskite layer that fully covers the textured silicon, at a speed of 1.5 m/min. With a textured light-scattering layer added to the top of the tandem to reduce front-surface reflectance, we achieve a perovskite/silicon tandem cell with an efficiency of 26% on textured silicon.

description: Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are promising to reduce the cost of photovoltaic system due to their low-cost raw materials and high-throughput solution process; however, fabrication of all the active layers in perovskite modules using a scalable solution process has not yet been demonstrated. Herein, the fabrication of highly efficient PSCs and modules in ambient conditions is reported, with all layers bladed except the metal electrode, by blading a 36 ± 9 nm-thick electron-transport layer (ETL) on perovskite films with a roughness of ≈80 nm. A combination of additives in phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) allows the PCBM to conformally cover the perovskites and still have a good electrical conductivity. Amine-functionalized molecules are added to enhance both the dispersity of PCBM and the affinity to perovskites. A PCBM dopant of 4-(2,3-dihydro-1,3-dimethyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-N,N-dimethylbenzenamine (N-DMBI) recovers the conductivity loss induced by the small amine molecules. PSCs (0.08 cm2) fabricated by the all-blading process reache an average efficiency of 22.4 ± 0.5% and a champion efficiency of 23.1% for perovskites with a bandgap of 1.51 eV, with much better stability compared to evaporated ETL PSCs. The all-bladed minimodule (25.03 cm2) shows an aperture efficiency of ≈19.3%, showing the good uniformity of the bladed ETLs.

description: Raman spectroscopy is a valuable technique for analyzing materials and their properties. However, due to the small scattering cross-section of many analytes, only weak signals with low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) are obtained. Researchers have explored various methodologies to overcome these limitations and enhance the power of this technique. Plasmonics, particularly Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), has garnered global attention as a means to overcome weak Raman intensity. However, SERS has limitations and constraints, such as complex sample preparation and high costs, that must be overcome for broader applicability. This dissertation demonstrates that gradient two-dimensional (2D) SERS substrates with multiple resonances improve the analysis of numerous samples. Such substrates enable fast screening of various molecules. With conventional 2D substrates, the signal from molecules is only enhanced when they are very close (a few nanometers) to the substrate surface. To overcome this limitation, innovative, stable, and three-dimensional (3D) SERS substrates based on spherical silica microspheres (SMPs) are developed as carriers for metal nanoparticles (NPs). These novel substrates offer the advantage of allowing analyses in all spatial directions, showing multiple resonances, being cost-effectively synthesized, and being used in various solutions. They address some of the limitations of conventional SERS substrates. Furthermore, this doctoral thesis deals with advanced data analysis in SERS and Raman spectroscopy, which can lead to difficulties interpreting the data. Advanced data analysis is applied to identify subtle spectral differences and improve data interpretation. However, optimizing and maintaining spectrometers' performance and calibration stability over time is essential for reliable data interpretation. For this purpose, a quality factor is introduced, which represents the fit between theoretically calculated and experimentally measured spectral resolution (SR). This is applied to a commercial spectrometer used in the dissertation. In summary, this work addresses central challenges and weaknesses in Raman spectroscopy, improving its applicability and addressing the associated challenges.

description: This document presents the results of the user requirements collection and analysis process and summarizes the elicited system requirements for the CUTLER privacy preserving cloud infrastructure. It includes a short presentation of the basics of available cloud models, with a focus on hybrid (public/private) cloud infrastructures, and discusses the main choices that have to
 be made for CUTLER’s cloud infrastructure, in terms of virtualization platforms, data storage techniques, data processing features, etc. It also provides an indicative architecture for a cloud-based big data analytics platform. The adopted requirement analysis process was based on an iterative requirement collection, refactoring, and enrichment process, involving the four pilot cities (Thessaloniki, Antalya, Antwerp, Cork), the corresponding technical partners assigned to each of them (CERTH, SAMPAS, IMEC and BLP, respectively) as well the developer of the CUTLER cloud infrastructure (DELL). This process has culminated in a set of functional requirements that have been categorized with respect to each pilot case and also their importance.

description: In Paper I (Safarzadeh & Berger 2019) we studied the determination of the delay time distribution (DTD) of binary neutron stars (BNS) through scaling relations between halo/stellar mass and the star formation history (SFH) of galaxies hosting gravitational wave (GW) events in the local universe. Here we explore how a detailed reconstruction of the individual SFHs of BNS merger host galaxies can improve on the use of the scaling relations. We use galaxies from the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey, which is mass complete at $M_*>10^9$ M$_\odot$ in the redshift range $0.05

title: Ursprung und Regulation des 3-Methylglutaryl-Motivs in der Caprazamycin-Biosynthese
Creators: name: Bär, Daniel
Publisher: name: Universität Tübingen
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: 500

description: Caprazamycine sind Liponucleosid-Antibiotika, die erstmals aus Streptomyces sp. MK730-62F2 isoliert wurden. Durch eine inhibitorische Wirkung auf die MraY-Translokase greifen sie in die Biosynthese der bakteriellen Zellwand ein. Sie zeigen Bioaktivität gegenüber grampositiven Bakterien, einschließlich dem klinisch relevanten Erreger Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Die Caprazamycine sind chemisch aus einen Grundgerüst bestehend aus Glycyluridin, 5-Amino-5-Deoxyribofuranose und einem permethylierten Diazepanon-Ring aufgebaut. Die Hydroxygruppe des Diazepanons trägt eine β-Hydroxyfettsäure. An deren β-Hydroxygruppe ist wiederum ein 3-Methylglutaryl-Rest verknüpft, der an der freien Carboxylgruppe eine permethylierte L-Rhamnose trägt. Die Biosynthese der Caprazamycine ist zu einem gewissen Maße untersucht, die Herkunft und Biosynthese des 3-Methylglutaryl-Motivs war bisher jedoch unbekannt. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden mit dem Caprazamycin-Gencluster und dem Primärmetabolismus des heterologen Produzenten Streptomyces coelicolor M1154 zwei Ursprünge dieses 3-Methylgluaryl-Motives identifiziert und sowohl genetisch als auch biochemisch näher charakterisiert. Zunächst wurden Gene des Caprazamycin-Genclusters untersucht, die an einem biosynthetischen Weg hin zu 3-Methylglutaryl-CoA beteiligt sein könnten. Hierfür kamen nach bioinformatischer Analyse die Gene cpz2, cpz5, cpz20 und cpz25 infrage. Durch Gendeletionen und genetischer Komplementierung konnte gezeigt werden, dass cpz5, cpz20 und cpz25 für die Bereitstellung von 3-Methylglutaryl-CoA benötigt werden. Cpz2 konnte auch nach zusätzlichen in-vitro-Experimenten keine Funktion in dieser Biosynthese zugeordnet werden. Gendeletionen sowie chemische und genetische Komplementierungen des Abbauwegs von Leucin und Isovalerat des heterologen Produzenten konnten zeigten, dass dieser Liu-Weg (leucine isovalerate utilization pathway) ebenfalls ein Intermediat für die Biosynthese von 3-Methylglutaryl-CoA bereitstellt. Interessanterweise sind Cpz20 und Cpz25 an beiden dieser Biosynthesewege beteiligt. Cpz25 setzt das zentrale Intermediat 3-Methylglutaconyl-CoA, welches von beiden Wegen gebildet wird, zu 3-Methylglutaryl-CoA um, während Cpz20 möglichweise an einem Aktivierungsschritt beteiligt ist. Zuletzt wurde der Regulator des liu-Genclusters auf einen möglichen Einfluss auf die Caprazamycin-Biosynthese untersucht. Eine Überexpression dieses Repressors führte zu einer verminderten Biosynthese der Caprazamycin-Aglycone, wogegen eine Gendeletion nicht zu einer Steigerung der Produktion führte. Zuletzt konnten Fütterungsexperimente mit L-Leucin, Isovaleryl-SNAc und 3-Methylcrotonyl-SNAc erste Hinweise darauf geben, dass diese als Liganden des Repressors agieren.
